Note
If one or more TIMs are installed as a CP in an S7-300 device, the CPU and TIMs must be
connected to the same power supply. This ensures that the CPU and TIMs start up at the
same time when the power supply is turned on.

Configuring a TIM and setting parameters
Introduction
The chapter
Configuration software for SINAUT ST7 contains a detailed description of
configuring and setting the parameters for a TIM. The next sections provide you with a brief
summary of this topic and explain which data generated during commissioning needs to be
transferred to the TIM to make it operational.
Configuration
Just as with all other S7 modules, the TIM is configured and its parameters assigned in the
HW Config STEP 7 program. The various TIM modules are available in the hardware catalog
of HW Config in the
SIMATIC 300 / SINAUT ST7 folder.
