Hardware configurations
Integration into a SIMATIC project enables you to create SIMATIC stations and field devices
in HW Config. You can open SIMATIC PDM directly on the networks and subordinate field
devices listed below:
● PROFIBUS DP
● PROFIBUS PA
● PROFINET IO
● Ethernet
● HART modem
● FOUNDATION Fieldbus
Assigning parameters and loading
In the case of offline parameter assignment, data relating to entries and changes made in
SIMATIC PDM is saved in the project data.
The inputs and changes will only become active after uploading the project data to the device.
The option for online parameter assignment depends on the device and must be stored in the
device description.
Entries and changes made in SIMATIC PDM must be loaded into the project.
