5.2 Configuring the CPU
5.2.1 Reading out the configuration
Introduction
When there is a connection to an existing CPU, you can load the configuration of this CPU,
including present modules, from the device into your project using the "Hardware detection"
function. You do not need to manually configure the CPU and the present modules, since the
physical configuration is read out automatically.
If you have already configured a CPU and the present modules and you want to load the
current configuration and parameters in a new project, it is advisable to use the "Upload
device as new station" function. For more information about this function, refer to section
Backing up and restoring the CPU configuration (Page 87).
Requirements
Note
Take into account that the Hardware detection functio
n only recognizes modules with
identification data I&M0 at an ET
200pro distributed I/O system. All modules that do not have
access to I&M0 identification data are displayed in the hardware configuration
as an empty
slot. You have to manually configure and
assign parameters to these modules

ter assignment required)
