Creating telecontrol connections for the ST7 communication of the module
For communication between two ST7 subscribers, you require a telecontrol connection. To
create the connection, follow the steps below:
1. In the "Starting point" box, click on a free row in the "Telecontrol" tab.
The drop-down list shows the configurable starting points that can use the ST7 protocol:
– S7 stations: Assigned CPU
– PC stations: Application (e.g. ST7cc / ST7sc)
For connections between an application on the master station PC and an S7 station,
always select the application as the starting point because it can only be selected in the
list of starting points.
2. Select the starting point of the connection by double-clicking.
The connection will then be included in the list of telecontrol connections.
The name of the connection is preset, but you can change it.
3. Now in the "Endpoint" box select the connection partner from the drop-down list.
Boxes with a missing or bad configuration are shown on a red background, in the example
the representation "TC_Connection_3".
