You can connect a third terminal to terminal two in the network using a cable. Setup is<br />

the same as for the second terminal.<br />

The [pass-through mode] function allows for setting the terminal in such a way that<br />

communication can take place between the PC programming software (in this case<br />

MOVITOOLS ® ) for the connected controller and the controller itself (MOVIDRIVE ® or<br />

MOVITRAC ® 07) via operator terminal.<br />

The function is analog to the transparent mode function and also only supports one<br />

controller. Consequently, transparent or pass-through mode can only be performed on<br />

one communication port of the terminal.<br />

If pass-through mode is active and the PC communicates with the controller via terminal,<br />

the communication between terminal and connected controller will be interrupted. This<br />

is the difference between pass-through mode and transparent mode. A terminal on<br />

which a communication in pass-through mode takes place will be locked for the operator<br />

and only show an empty screen with a reference made to the pass-through mode.<br />

Pass-through mode for one of the connected controllers is activated or deactivated via<br />

the [DOP Tools] / [DOP Connect] program. You find the program as icon in the [DOP<br />

Tools] program group.<br />

DOP11A-10 does NOT support pass-through mode with DOP Connect.<br />

The MOVILINK ® driver for MOVIDRIVE ® and MOVITRAC ® 07 units only supports passthrough<br />

mode. Transparent mode is not supported.<br />

The following PC and terminal settings are required to enable pass-through mode:<br />

Make the communication setting in the terminal project in HMI-Builder under [Setup] /<br />

[Peripherals]. Drag the [Transparent mode] element to the required communication port<br />

(i.e. the port to which the PC is connected with the terminal).<br />

To configure pass-through mode, right-click the element. The settings for the port to<br />

which the PC is connected must be identical with the settings in the PC program (programming<br />

software for the controller).<br />
