11.1 Overview
You can load and test your user program using the online functions of
the STEP 5 software.
To use these functions, the CPU must be connected to the PG. The
following interfaces are available for this link:
•• link via the serial standard interface "PG - PLC",
•• link via the 2nd serial interface of the CPU 948,
•• link via the S5 bus with SINEC H1.
The PG functions can operate simultaneously on the two serial
interfaces, however, via the SINEC H1 link, the PG functions can only
be used alternately with those on the serial interfaces
PG functions provide the following support for installing and testing
your STEP 5 program:
