Procedure - Creating project 1
To create the first project with a shared device, follow these steps:
1.
Start STEP 7.
2. Create a new project with the name "Shared-Device-1".
3. Insert, for example, a CPU 1513-1 PN from the hardware catalog in the network view. Name
it "PLC1".
4. Insert an IO device with the "Shared device" function from the hardware catalog.
5. Assign the IO controller "PLC1" to the IO device.
6. Double-click the IO device and insert all required modules and submodules from the
hardware catalog in the device overview table.
7. Assign the module parameters.
8. Save the project.
Procedure - Creating project 2
To create the second project with a shared device, follow these steps:
1.
Start STEP 7 once again.
A new instance of STEP 7 opens.
2. In the new instance, create a new project with the name "Shared-Device-2".
3. Insert, for example, a CPU 1513-1 PN in the network view. Name it "PLC2".
4. Copy the IO device from the project "Shared-Device-1" and insert it in the network view of
project "Shared-Device-2".
5. Assign the IO controller "PLC2" to the IO device.
6. Save the project.
Both projects now have an identically structured IO device that must be configured in the
next step for the different types of IO controller access.
