Lock symbol Automation Studio 4.0 and X20CP1485-1


I am newbie in B&R ecosystem. I use Automation Studio 4.0 and X20CP1485-1. Near some blocks on X2X bus I see locks. What is it? How I can “unlock” device…

Hi,

since this modules are of type X67, the lock symbol only means that the address of the module (the “ST XY” on the right side of the module) is automatically assigned and cannot be changed.

The addressing of X67 modules is assigned automatically by the order of the modules in the hardware tree and the physical wiring. So there’s no functional limitation or parameter restriction, the symbol only indicates the auto addressing that can’t be changed.

Best regards.
