4.4.1 Occupied system flag area (SM area)
The CP 243-1 occupies 50 bytes in the S7-200 CPU system flag area. The ad-
dress of these 50 bytes depends on the position in which a CP 243-1 is currently
located in an S7-200 system. Primarily general information and status information
of the CP 243-1 are stored in these 50 bytes. The last four bytes contain a pointer
through which one can access the CP 243-1 configuration data. These configura-
tion data are consecutively stored in the S7-200 CPU variables memory. They are
subdivided into the:
• Configuration Data Block (CDB)
• Network Parameter Block (NPB)
• Network Data Block (NDB)
The following table shows the relationship between the position of a module in the
S7-200 system and the associated system flag area.
