User-assignable addressing on the SIMOTION C (centralized and
distributed I/O)
User-assignable addressing
User-assignable addressing means you can assign an address of your choice to each
module or slot, for example, integrated inputs/outputs, drives. You make this assignment in
the hardware configuration (see
SIMOTION SCOUT online help). Here you specify the
module start address on which all further module addresses will then be based.
advantages
Advantages of user-definable addressing:
● You can make the best possible use of the available address spaces because there are
no "address gaps" between the modules.
● When creating standard software, you can specify addresses which are independent of
the respective configuration of the SIMOTION modules.
