5.4 Distributed I/O
5.4.1 Overview of configuration steps
Introduction
The following sections describe configuring redundancy of the individual components of the
distributed I/O.
Overview
This section describes the configuration steps for the following topics:
● Configuring the redundant interface for the I/O device (Page 133)
● Configuring redundant input/output modules (Page 136)
● Configuring the input/output modules in IO Redundancy (Page 140)
● Configuring the Y Link (Page 145)
● Configuring a bus link for PROFIBUS PA (Page 147)
● Configuring a bus link for an FF segment (Page 148)
● Configuration of redundant signals (Page 151)
5.4.2 How to configure the redundant interface module for the I/O device
Introduction
Once you have integrated the interface module (IM 153-2 for ET 200M, IM 152-1 for ET 200iSP;
IM 155-6 for ET 200SP HA) as hardware in the distributed I/O device, the component is made
known to the system in SIMATIC Manager with HW Config or NetPro.
Requirements
● The PCS 7 project with a SIMATIC H station is open in SIMATIC Manager.
● If you want to use ET 200SP HA, a redundant CPU 410-5H with firmware version ≳ 8.2 is
configured for the SIMATIC H station in HW Config.
● A redundant fieldbus system is configured for the SIMATIC H station in HW Config.
