Restarting FH Controller
There is a RESET signal for the Parallel Interface in the FZ Series, however there is not one for the FH Series.
Procedure
For the FH Series, use the Communications Command Macro if you need to restart the system over Parallel Interface. The method is as following:
- Use the SystemReset function.
- Enter the following for command no. 0 in the Communication command macro -> SystemReset
- Turn DI 0 to 6 OFF and turn DI 7 ON. This turns the ACK signal ON and when that is executed, it will restart the sensor controller.
- When the ACK signal is ON, then turn DI 7 OFF.
