Device configuration
In the case of PROFIBUS, the structure of the hardware is mirrored in the TIA device
configuration as follows:
CIM
PM
POM 1 POM 2 POM 3
...
Final
POM
Slot number
1
2
3

5
n
The configuration rules are as follows:
CIM
The CIM module includes the PROFIBUS connection and is permanently present in slot 1.
PM
The CIM I/O module is present in slot 2. If no I/O module PM is used, an empty space must
be configured here.
POM
A maximum of 12 POMs can be operated on one CIM.
Note
The device configuration in the project engineering must match the configuration of the HCS
that actually exists.
Otherwise no startup can take place.
