6.3.3 Setting the properties of the digital inputs/outputs
Requirement
● A project is open in "HW Config".
Procedure
1. Double click in the properties window on slot 1.
The "Properties – KP8 inputs/outputs" dialog box opens.
2. Open the "Addresses" tab.
In the "Inputs" and "Outputs" groups, the start values of the address areas are set
depending on the controller used.
Parameter Meaning
Inputs > Start Start of address range in which the PROFIsafe inputs/outputs for
the fail-safe HMI device are mapped.
Inputs > Process Image Process image to which the address range belongs.
This parameter cannot be set with controllers of the
SIMATIC CPU 300 type.
Outputs > Start Start of address range in which the PROFIsafe inputs/outputs for
the fail-safe HMI device are mapped.
Outputs > Process Image Process image to which the address range belongs.
This parameter cannot be set with controllers of the
