Without reading the specifics of all the operating manuals, can you tell me if there are any issues with providing power to them to perform this check. We will not have any gases available at this point in time. Also is there anything we should know in advance regarding assigning the specific addresses to the valve boxes? You can power up the valve boxes without gas being applied. You may get a warning or two, such as flow fault because of this, but the valve box keeps running. As to Profibus addresses, just make sure to start with 2 as address 1 is reserved for the master, and do not repeat the address number. Top of page |
