17. Change the monitoring time "F_WD_Time" if needed.
To do this, use the "Change value" button. Assign a network and station-wide unique
address.
18. Click "OK".
The entries are saved. The dialog box closes.
Result
The switch states of the digital inputs of the HMI device are stored in the specified address
area of the controller.

6.5 Setting the PROFIsafe address
A PROFIsafe target address is assigned when you add the HMI device in the HW Config of
the STEP 7 project. The PROFIsafe target address is the value of the "F_Dest_Add"
parameter – KP8F see section "Setting the fail-safe p
rope
rties (Page 89)" and KP32F see
section "Setting the fail-safe properties (Page 89)".
Then you must set the same PROFIsafe
target address using the DIP switch on the back of
the HMI device.
Note
Ensure that the HMI device is disconnected from the power before setting the PROFIsafe
target address with the DIP switches.
Requirement
● The DIP switch of the HMI device is accessible.
● The value of the "F_Dest_Add" parameter is known.
Note
The PROFIsafe target address of the HMI device must be unique throughout the
communication network and station. You can assign a maximum of 1022 PROFIsafe
target addresses in a single system.
If you change the STEP 7 program in a way that changes the PROFIsafe target address,
you need to change the switch settings on the HMI device's DIP switch accordingly.
