FAQ

Q1: What is the main advantage of the F5 series module compared to the F4 series?

A1: The F5 series offers faster processor speeds, larger memory capacity, and enhanced communication bus performance, enabling it to handle more complex, data-intensive applications with improved speed and efficiency.

Q2: Why does the part number include two separate designators: 15.F5.24G-1419 and 15.F5.04G-100C?

A2: The dual designators represent the base hardware version (15.F5.24G-1419) and a specific configuration or feature set (15.F5.04G-100C), defining the module's final operating capability, such as firmware or I/O mapping.

Q3: Is the KEB COMBIVIS software used to program the F5 series as well?

A3: Yes, KEB's COMBIVIS software is used for parameterization, programming, diagnostics, and firmware updates across both F4 and F5 series, ensuring continuity for engineers.

Q4: What is the recommended procedure for migrating from an F4 system to an F5 system using this module?

A4: Migration requires converting the application program and re-parameterizing drive settings using COMBIVIS. It’s advised to consult KEB technical specialists for guidance due to hardware differences between the F4 and F5 systems.
