Note
Please note that not all modules of the above-mentioned I/Os or I/O systems are approved
for SIMOTION. Moreover, system-related functional differences can come into play when
these I/O or I/O systems are used on SIMOTION vs. on SIMATIC. For example, special
process-control functions (hot swapping, etc.) are not supported by SIMOTION for the
ET 200M distributed I/O system.
A detailed, regularly updated list of the I/O modules approved for use with SIMOTION, as
well as notes on their use, can be found on the Internet at: Address
