If you start the "Properties" function from the LifeList, the "Object Properties (Page 172)" dialog
appears, but without the "Communication" and "Document Manager" tabs.
● "General" tab (Page 173)
● "Device" tab (Page 173)
● "Diagnostics" tab (Page 174)
Note
If the "Object Properties" dialog is started from the LifeList, the "Communication" and
"Document Manager" tabs are not displayed and the "Update Diagnostics" button is not visible
in the "Diagnostics" tab.
LifeList via Ethernet routing
The following requirements have to be met to apply the LifeList to objects via Ethernet routing:
● An S7 hardware project can communicate with the automation system via HW Config.
● The hardware project has been downloaded to the automation system along with the
corresponding PROFIBUS-Link .
If these conditions are met, communication can be established via Ethernet routing with
networks of the following types:
● PROFIBUS DP network
● PROFIBUS PA network
● FONDATION Fieldbus via FF Link at PROFIBUS DP
You can find information on the required hardware in the file
PDM-readme.
