Outputs > Start Start of address range in which the safety-relevant usage data of
the HMI device are mapped.
Outputs > Process Image Process image to which the address range belongs.
This parameter cannot be entered with a controller of the
SIMATIC CPU 300 type.
3. Check the default entry of the addresses for "Start".
If necessary, change the address range.
4. Select the "Parameters" tab.
