3.2 SELECT/SET button
With a SCALANCE XR-500, the "SELECT/SET" button is on the front of the housing. The
"SELECT/SET" button has several functions that are described below.
Figure 3-1 SELECT/SET button on the SCALANCE XR524-8C
Figure 3-2 SELECT/SET button on the SCALANCE XR552-12M SCALANCE XR528-6M is
analogous.
By pressing the button briefly, you change to the display mode of the LED display. You will
find detailed information on the display modes in the sections ""DM1" and "DM2" LEDs for
the display mode (Page 19)" and "Port P1, P2, ... LEDs for the port status (Page 22)".
If you reset, all the changes you have made will be overwritten by factory defaults.
To reset the device to the factory defaults, follow the steps below:
1. Switch to display mode A.
Display mode A is active when the LEDs "DM1" and "DM2" are off.
When the LEDs "DM1" and "DM2" are lit or flashing, you need to press the
"SELECT/SET" button several times briefly until the "DM1" and "DM2" LEDs are off.
If you do not press the "SELECT/SET" button for longer than 1 minute, the device
automatically switches to display mode A.
2. Hold down the "SELECT/SET" button for 12 seconds.
After 9 seconds, the "DM1" and "DM2" LEDs start to flash for 3 seconds. At the same
time, the port LEDs light up one after the other.
If you release the button before the 12 seconds have elapsed, the reset is canceled.

3.2 SELECT/SET button
If you have disabled the SELECT/SET button for "Restore Factory Defaults" in the
configuration, this does not apply during the startup phase. When you restart after cycling
power, the configuration can nevertheless be deleted using this button. This action cannot
be undone and you then need to reload the device configuration. This can lead to
disturbances and failures in the corresponding network area.
Using the fault mask, you specify an individual "good status" for the connected ports and the
power supply. Deviations from this status are displayed as errors/faults.
To define the fault mask, follow the steps below:
1. Change to display mode D.
Display mode D is active when the "DM1" and "DM2" LEDs are lit green.
If a different display mode is active, press the "SET/SELECT" button several times briefly,
until the "DM1" and "DM2" LEDs are lit green.
2. Hold down the "SELECT/SET" button for 5 seconds.
After 2 seconds, the "DM1" and "DM2" LEDs start to flash for 3 seconds. At the same
time the port LEDs go on one after the other.
After you have pressed the button for 5 seconds, the current settings are stored as the
"good status".
If you release the button before the 5 seconds are up, the previous fault mask is retained.
To enable/disable the redundancy manager, follow the steps below:
1. Change to display mode B.
Display mode B is active when the "DM1" LED is lit green and the and "DM2" LED is off.
If a different display mode is active, press the "SET/SELECT" button several times briefly,
until the "DM1" LED is lit green and the "DM2" LED is off.
2. Hold down the "SELECT/SET" button for 5 seconds.
After 2 seconds, the "DM1", "DM2" and "RM" LEDs start to flash for 3 seconds. At the
same time, the port LEDs light up one after the other.
If you release the button before the 5 seconds have elapsed, the action is canceled.
The result of the action depends on the initial situation:
–
The redundancy manager and media redundancy are disabled.
After enabling the redundancy manager, media redundancy is also enabled.
–
The redundancy manager and media redundancy are enabled.
After disabling the redundancy manager, media redundancy remains enabled.

Operating mode
3.4 C-PLUG / KEY-PLUG
A C-PLUG/KEY-PLUG may only be removed or inserted when the device is turned off.
A PLUG is an exchangeable storage medium for storing the configuration data of the device.
This allows fast and uncomplicated replacement of a device. The PLUG is taken from the
previous device and inserted in the new device. The first time it is started up, the
replacement device has the same configuration as the previous device except for the devicespecific MAC address set by the vendor.
A C-PLUG stores the current information about the configuration of a device.
In addition to the configuration, a KEY-PLUG also contains a license with which layer 3
functionality is enabled.
-PLUG/KEY-PLUG.
In terms of the C-PLUG / KEY-PLUG, there are three modes for the device:
● Without C-PLUG/KEY-PLUG
The device stores the configuration in internal memory.
This mode is active if no C-PLUG/KEY-PLUG is inserted.
● With unwritten C-PLUG/KEY-PLUG
If an unwritten C-PLUG/KEY-PLUG (factory status or deleted with Clean function) is
used, the local configuration already existing on the device is automatically stored on the
inserted C-PLUG/KEY-PLUG during startup.
This mode is active as soon as an unwritten C-PLUG/KEY-PLUG is inserted.
● With written C-PLUG/KEY-PLUG
A device with a written and accepted C-PLUG/KEY-PLUG ("ACCEPTED" status)
automatically uses its configuration data during startup.
Acceptance is only possible if the data was written by a compatible device type.
This mode is active as soon as a written C-PLUG/KEY-PLUG is inserted.

The configuration stored on the C-PLUG/KEY-PLUG is displayed via the user interfaces.
If changes are made to the configuration, the device stores the configuration directly on the
C-PLUG/KEY-PLUG, if this is in the "ACCEPTED" status. The internal memory is neither
read nor written.
Inserting a C-PLUG/KEY-PLUG that does not contain the configuration of a compatible
device type, accidentally removing the C-PLUG/KEY-PLUG or general malfunctions of the CPLUG/KEY-PLUG are signaled by the diagnostics mechanisms of the device (LEDs, Webbased management (WBM), SNMP, Command Line Interface (CLI) and PROFINET
diagnostics).
The user then has the choice of either removing the C-PLUG/KEY-PLUG again or selecting
the option to reformat the C-PLUG/KEY-PLUG.
A C-PLUG/KEY-PLUG may only be removed or inserted when the device is turned off.
On a SCALANCE XR524-8C, the slot is below a cover on
the left-hand side of the housing.

After undoing the screw (screw head Torx T10), you can
remove the cover plate and the slot is accessible.

3.5 Combo ports
The following devices have combo ports:
● SCALANCE XR524-8C
Combo port is the name for two communication ports. A combo port has the two following
jacks:
● a fixed RJ-45 port
● an SFP transceiver slot that can be equipped individually
Of these two ports, only one can ever be active. Using the mode, you can decide how the
ports are prioritized.
The port name is the same on both jacks of the combo port, for example "P3C.
For each combo port there is an LED. The LEDs for the combo ports can be identified by a
vertical line and the word "COMBO". The labeling of the combo port LEDs does not differ
from that of the other LEDs, e.g. "P3".
The following modes can be configured for a combo port:
● Mode 1:
The SFP transceiver port has priority. As soon as an SFP transceiver is plugged in, an
existing connection at the fixed RJ-45 port is terminated. If no SFC transceiver is plugged
in, a connection can be established via the fixed RJ-45 port.
● Mode 2:
The fixed RJ-45 port is independent of the SFP transceiver port.
● Mode 3:
The pluggable transceiver port is used independent of the fixed RJ-45 port.
The factory setting for the combo ports is mode 1: auto.
You configure the mode with Web Based Management or the Command Line Interface.

CAUTION
Use only approved components
NOTICE
Damage to the device due to inadequate cooling
NOTICE
Warming and premature aging of the IE switch due to direct sunlight
When installing the device, keep to the safety notices listed below.
If you use components and accessories that are not approved for SIMATIC NET devices or
their target systems, this may violate the requirements and regulations for safety and
electromagnetic compatibility.
• Use only components that are approved for SIMATIC NET devices.
• Create any supports you require according the dimension drawing.
If the ventilation slits are fully or partly covered, the temperature inside the housing can rise
and exceed the maximum permitted temperature causing damage to the device.
The ventilation slits are located on the side panels of the housing. During installation, select
a mounting position so that the ventilation slits are always free so that the air can circulate.
The clearance to the ventilation slits of the housing must be at least 10 cm.
You will find information about cleaning the air filter in the section "Upkeep and
maintenance".
Close unused module slots of modular devices with dummy covers. Open module slots
impair the air circulation and can damage the device.
Direct sunlight can heat up the device and can lead to premature aging of the IE switch and
its cabling.
Provide suitable shade to protect the IE switch against direct sunlight.
