System- and communication configuring D7-SYS - SIMADYN D
Edition 03.2001
At least one rack and all of the modules and sub-modules which it
accommodates must be configured in HWConfig. When a module is
generated, a recommended module name is assigned. This
recommended name can be overwritten as long as it conforms to the
maximum name length (max. 6 characters) and the character exists (refer
to the Chapter "General description"), with (A-Z,0-9,_,@). It is
recommended that the names are selected according to the schematic in
the following table for the plant/system components:

Designation schematic for the hardware configuration in HWConfig
The slot number of a module specifies the number of the slot in the
subrack where the actual module is configured. For a SR24 with 24 slots,
these are slots 1 to 24.
All sub-modules of a module are consecutively numbered starting from 1.
The sub-module which is located at the top of the table is number 1.
The recommended CPU rack name is 6 characters long. The logical
processor number (in the rack, from left to right) is displayed in operation,
independently of the assigned name on the 7-segment display of the
CPU module.
NOTE
The configured module names within a station must be unique.
The configured function blocks are processed via
•
5 cyclic tasks and/or
•
8 interrupt tasks.
The start of an interrupt task with respect to the instant that the process
interrupt was initiated can be offset by a freely-configurable delay time.
