10.6 Selecting signals via Sniffer Symbol Browser
You can perform "symbolic browsing" with “sniffer” modules for PROFIBUS configura-
tions of S7-CPUs, which have been configured under Step 7 V5.x and contain the sym-
bols of the PROFIBUS peripherals in the symbol table. This function cannot be used for
TIA Portal projects.
An export file
*.cfg
of the hardware configuration from Step 7 has to be available when
creating the address book. For generating such an export file, open the hardware con-
figuration of your S7-CPU in Step 7. Under the menu item "Station - Export..", you can
generate an export of the configuration:
