In order to parameterize a module per PLC Configuration in the device editor, proceed as follows:
|
Step |
Action |
|---|---|
|
1 |
Append module in the beneath a Sercos III bus interface (TM5NS31). |
|
2 |
Afterwards double-click the module in the . Result: The device editor is opened and the tabs , , and are displayed. |
The input and output channels of the module are mapped to project variables that are used by the application.
