Assigning device names
1. For IM 153-4AA00-0XB0:
Insert an empty SIMATIC Micro Memory Card into the module slot on the front of the
IM 153-4 PN interface module.
2. Switch on the voltage supply for the IM 153-4 PN.
3. In HW Config, open the "Properties - IM 153-4 PN" window, enter the device name for the
IO device, and then confirm your entry with "OK".
Do not use the device name "noname".
Transferring the device name to the interface module.
1. In HW Config, select "PLC > Ethernet > Assign Device Name".
2. Click "Assign Name" in the "Assign Device Name" window.
Result
The device name is saved on the SIMATIC Micro Memory Card in the IM 153-4AA00-0XB0
interface module.
As of IM 153-4AA01-0XB0, the device name is saved in the interface module.
Forwarding the device name on replacement of the interface module
The device name of the IO device is saved on the SIMATIC Micro Memory Card for IM 153-
4AA00-0XB0.
As of IM153-4AA01-0XB0, you can save the device name as previously on a SIMATIC Micro
Memory Card or optionally in the interface module. In the latter case, no SIMATIC Micro
Memory Card is required. If you use a SIMATIC Micro Memory Card, the device name is also
saved to an IM153-4AA01-0XB0 on the SIMATIC Micro Memory Card.
To pass the device name when an interface module is replaced, move the SIMATIC Micro
Memory Card from the "old" interface module to the "new" one.
The IO device takes the device name from the SIMATIC Micro Memory Card after the supply
voltage is switched off and on. The station can be addressed again and will operate as before
the replacement.
For IM 153-4AA01-0XB0 you can also replace the device without removable media / PD.
Instead of being assigned a device name from the removable medium or programming
device, the IO device is now assigned a device name by the IO controller. The IO controller
uses the configured topology and the correlations derived from the IO devices. The
configured target topology must agree with the actual topology.
