6.3.3 FDR service (Fast Device Replacement)
The FDR service uses standard DHCP and TFTP (Trivial File Transfer
Protocol) technologies to simplify maintenance of Ethernet devices.
For example, the FDR service is used to replace a defective device by
a new device. The service allows for detection, configuration and auto-
matic start of the new device without complex manual user interaction.
The main steps:
•
A defective device that uses the FDR service is removed.
•
The new device that is pre-configured with the "DeviceName" of
the defective device is installed in the network.
•
The FDR server which can be a Quantum- or Premium-SPS PLC
Ethernet module detects the new device, configures it with its IP
address and transmits the configuration parameters.
•
The replacement device checks the parameters for compatibility.
