3.4 I&M identification data
Properties
I data: Information about the module that generally appears on the module's housing. I data
is only read:
● Hardware release status
● Firmware release status
● Serial number
● MLFB
M data: System-dependent information (e.g. higher level designation of item).
M data is created during configuration.
● Higher level designation of item
● Installation date
● Additional information
● Location designation
Identification data (I&M) is information stored retentively in a module that helps you to:
● Troubleshoot a system
● Check the system configuration
● Locate changes to the hardware of a system.
Reading and writing the I&M data with
STEP 7
System-dependent information (HID) is configured in the object properties dialog for the
module.
You obtain information on the module (I data) from the module status dialog. The system-
dependent information (HID) on the module is displayed here too.
Note
Note that when you operate the fail-safe signal modules SM 336; F-
AI 6 x 0/4 ... 20 mA HART and SM 326; F-DO 10 x DC 24V/2A PP with the interface module
IM153-2 (6ES7153-2BA01-0XB0), you will only be able to write the I&M date "Additional
information".
