Which components can be modified?
The following modifications can be made to the hardware configuration during operation:
●
Adding or removing modules in the central controllers or expansion units (e.g., one-sided
I/O module).
Note
IM 460, IM 461 and CP 443-5 Extended
Adding or removing IM460 and IM461 interface modules, external CP443-5 Extended DP
master interface modules and their cables is only permitted in a de-energized state.
Note
Signal modules capable of generating substitute values in the central controller
The minimum I/O retention time is ineffective in case of a system change for signal
modules capable of generating substitute values in a central controller. There is always a
gap of 3 to 50 ms.
●
Adding or removing components of the distributed I/O such as
–
DP slaves with a redundant interface module (e.g., ET 200M, ET200iSP, DP/PA link,
or Y Link)
–
One-sided DP slaves (in any DP master system)
–
Modules in modular DP slaves (ET200M and ET200iSP)
–
DP/PA couplers
–
PA devices
●
Changing specific CPU parameters
●
Reassigning the module parameters
●
Assigning a module to another process image partition
●
Upgrading the CPU version
●
Upgrading to a higher product version or a current version of used components, such as
DP-IMs or external DP interface modules.
Note
No changes to the PROFINET IO interface during operation
I/O components that are connected to a PROFINET IO interface as well as parameters of
the PROFINET IO interface cannot be modified during operation.
Follow the rules for assembling a fault-tolerant station when making any modifications (see
section Rules for the assembly of fault-tolerant stations (Page 29)).
