Control data record
For configuration control of the ET 200AL distributed I/O system, you define a control data
record 196 V2.1, which contains a slot assignment for the modules. The table below shows
the structure of a control data record with explanations of the individual elements.

Contains information on
which module is inserted in
which slot.
The following rule deter-
mines which value you must
enter in the respective byte:
•
If the module is included
in the station option, en-
ter the slot number of
the module.
•
If the module does not
exist in the station op-
tion, enter 0.

Combination of configuration control and shared device (for PROFINET)
The configuration control function in a shared device is therefore only for the I/O modules of
the IO controller to which the interface module has subscribed. I/O modules that are assigned
to no controller or a different controller behave like a station without activated configuration
control.
In the control data record change the slots only for those modules that are assigned to the
IO-Controller.
In the control data record do not move modules to slots that are assigned to a different IO
controller or no IO controller. The interface module does not check whether a control data
record 196 exists for these slots. The interface module assumes a 1-to-1 assignment for these
slots.
