Dear Karim

There is no COM 541.  You need to connect your PG/PC to COM541, open the DB1 with DB Editor and save the modified DB1.

Here is an extract from COM 541 manual - Appendix-C :

-------------------------------------------

You assign parameters to the CP 541 with DB1 in the CP 541. You thus determine the operational behavior of the CP 541.

To be able to modify DB1 in CP 541, you must switch the CP 541 to STOP and connect a PG to the PG/PLC input ( Of CP541 ). It is assumed that you already know how to modify DB1 with a PG.

The CP 541 operating system contains a default DB1 with which the CP 541can be started.

------------------------------------------

Hope this helps

Cheers

Navnag

Of course you need STEP5.
