9.4 Removable data storage
The fieldbus gateway Type ME23 has a removable data storage in the size of a micro SD card, on which devicespecific data is stored.
Upon delivery, the micro SD card is inserted in the device.
Using the micro SD card, it is possible to exchange the specific data of devices having the same Ident number. For
example for transmitting the data of a defective device to a new device.
The baud rate, the address and / or the configuration of the process values of the device are, for example, stored
on the micro SD card.
If device-specific data is available on the inserted micro SD card during restart, the device will take over this data.
If no device-specific data is available on the micro SD card, the device will store its own data on it.
NOTE!
Do not use a standard micro SD card for the device. Please order the micro SD card for the Type ME23 via
your Bürkert sales department.
See chapter “12 Accessories”.
Replacing the micro SD card
The micro SD card can be found at the bottom side of the device.
Micro SD card
Figure 7: Replacing the micro SD card; fieldbus gateway ME23
Remove the micro SD card:
→ Press on the edge of the engaged micro SD card to unlock it.
→ Pull micro SD card out.
Insert micro SD card in replacement device:
Make sure you insert the card in the correct orientation.
→ Insert the micro SD card in the card holder of the replacement device.

FUNCTIONS
Type ME23
10 FUNCTIONS
10.1 Conversion Industrial Ethernet to büS
The function of the fieldbus gateway is to convert the process values between an Industrial Ethernet control and
büS participants. For this, the fieldbus gateway ME23 must be configured and parameterized.
The "Bürkert Communicator" software and the büS stick, which is available as accessory, are required for
configuration and parameterization of the fieldbus gateway ME23, refer to chapter“12 Accessories”.
The "Bürkert Communicator" software and a general description of it are available on the Bürkert
homepage.
Procedure:
Select the büS participants that are to communicate with the controller (PLC) via the fieldbus gateway

FUNCTIONS
Type ME23
Define the direction for transmission of the process values (from/to PLC, from/to büS participant):
The direction is assigned from the perspective of the fieldbus gateway ME23 in the fieldbus büS.
Example:
- Set-point values of a büS participant are the output values of the fieldbus gateway ME23.
- Actual values of a büS participant are the input values of the fieldbus gateway ME23.
Process output values of the PLC are received in the fieldbus gateway ME23 as process input values using
Industrial Ethernet. The process input values are converted and provided as process output values using büS.
Vice versa, process output values of the büS participant are received as büS input values. The process input
values are converted and provided as process output values using Industrial Ethernet.

values for the conversion have already been defined.
The description of the procedure for the configuration refers to the symbols and terms of "Bürkert Communicator" user interface.
→ Use the “Bürkert büS stick” to connect to the “Bürkert Communicator” software.
→ Add interface: Select tool from tool bar.
→ Select Gateway_01 in the navigation area.
→ Open the menu sub-items.
→ Select Industrial communication function.

11.3 Display of the device status
The fieldbus gateway ME23 is provided with an LED that displays the device status and changes its color and the
status in accordance with NAMUR NE 107.
If several device statuses exist simultaneously, the device status with the highest priority is displayed. The priority is
determined by the severity of the deviation from standard operation (red LED = error = highest priority).

Description Procedure
No color No power is supplied to the device. Connect device to power supply.
Flashing rapidly
(applies to all colors)
The device was selected using the
"Bürkert Communicator" software.
De-select the device using the
"Bürkert Communicator" software.
White and illuminated Power is supplied to the device.
A büS connection exists and parameterized büS participants have successfully been found.
-
White and flashing
Red and illuminated Mode 1:
Device defective.
Device requires maintenance –
contact the manufacturer.
Mode 2:
Communication with other büS participants not possible.
Link device to a network with other
büS participants.
Red and flashing Mode 1:
Bus fault (e. g. short-circuit).
Check cable connection.
Mode 2:
The device is not connected to the
PLC.
Check cable connection.
Consult device description regarding
connection of the device in PLC.
Mode 3:
The device cannot find the assigned
büS participant.
Make sure the büS participant is
affected to the device.
Orange and illuminated Mode 1:
Device temperature is outside the
specification, destruction of the device
cannot be excluded.
Operate the device inside the
specification.
Mode 2: Device has detected an error
in the fieldbus büS.
Restart the network if the device
status lasts longer than 5 seconds.
Orange and flashing Mode 1:
Search for büS participant active.
Mode exit after a few seconds.
Restart the network if the device
status lasts longer than 4 minutes.
Mode 2: Device has detected an error
in the fieldbus büS.
Restart device.

11.4 Troubleshooting
Problem Possible cause Procedure
The NAMUR-LED goes off
periodically.
The power supply collapses periodically – the device implements a reset
each time.
Use power supply with adequate
power.
The drop in power in the connecting
cable is too great.
Increase cable cross-section.
Reduce cable length.
No process values are transmitted between Industrial Ethernet and büS.
No cable connection. Check Ethernet and büS cable
connection.
Reading and writing of the values has
not been allowed by the PLC in the
control object of the participant.
Allow reading and writing of the values
in the control object of the participant.
The process values have been
configured incorrectly.
Check configuration of the process
values.
The process values have been
allocated incorrectly.
Check allocation of the process values
to the büS participants.
The process values cannot
be allocated to the büS
participants.
The process values have not been
configured.
Check configuration of the process
values.
Takeover of the configuration must
be completed by a restart of the
participant.
Restart the participant after
configuration.
The process values have been allocated to different classes.
Check allocation to ensure that büS
participants work with process values
of the same class.
Observe input and output direction
as allocation.
Verify that direction of input and output
is correct.
An incorrect value is transmitted or value is zero.
The process values have not been
allocated or have been allocated to
the wrong participants.
Check allocation of the process values.
Replacement device fails to
take over values from micro SD
card from the defective device.
The device Ident number of the
replacement device and the defective
device differ.
Values can only be transmitted
between devices having the same Ident
number.
The micro SD card is defective. The
device was unable to write any values
on the micro SD card.
Replace the micro SD card (refer to
chapter “12 Accessories”) and retry
transmitting the parameters of the
defective device to the card (refer
to chapter “9.4 Removable data
storage”).
Replacement device fails to take
over all values from micro SD
card from the defective device.
The EDS device description between
the replacement device and the
defective device differs.
Only the existing values of the defective
device can be transferred to the
replacement device. New values of the
replacement device must be parameterized using the "Bürkert Communicator"
software.
