Module replacement without exchangeable medium/PC
Note
Precondition for module replacement without exchangeable medium/PC
The use of this function depends whether the IO controller and the neighboring IO devices
support this function.
Assuming SIMOCODE pro in STEP 7 V5 has been integrated and parameterized using
OM SIMOCODE pro, the IO controller can automatically restore the device name, the IP
configuration, and then the complete device parameterization performed with
SIMOCODE ES of the replaced device.
Note
Do not use a memory module or initialization module!
To use this function, you do not have to and indeed must not use of a memory module or an
initialization module!
