With this parameter, you can set the working mode of the slave. The parameter lets you configure a slave as a simulated device. A simulated device is treated like a device that is physically present and connected. However, the system does not perform any communication with a simulated device.
If the value of the parameter DesiredWorkingMode is modified in communication phase 4, the new value becomes effective only after the next full Sercos phase-up.
The parameter provides the following values:

Description |
|---|---|
|
Simulated working mode |
The working mode Simulated is intended for use during development, for example, for testing an application before the drive is connected to the logic/motion controller. |
|
Activated working mode (default value) |
The working mode Activated is intended for regular machine operation when the device is connected. |
Refer to the chapter Configuring Devices as Simulated or Activated for additional information.
