S7-400 and M7-400 Programmable Controllers, Installation Manual
C79000-G7076-C424-01
K
The keyswitch is the mode selector switch of the CPU. The keyswitch
is operated with a key which can be withdrawn.
L
The load memory is part of the S7-400 CPU. It contains objects
created by the programming device. It can be either a plug-in memory
card or an integrated memory.
Power supply for the signal and function modules and the process I/O
connected to them.
³ Data, Temporary
In SIMATIC S7, a logic block is a block that contains part of the
STEP 7 user program. The other type of block is a data block which
contains only data.
M
An expansion of the M7-400 programmable controller. It is connected
to the CPU via an ISA bus interface and contains a floppy disk drive
and a hard disk drive.
Measuring range submodules are plugged onto the analog input
module for adapting to various measuring ranges.
Memory cards are storage media in credit-card format for CPUs and
CPs. They are available as RAM or FEPROM.
³ Keyswitch
Module parameters are used to set the module reactions. A difference
is made between static and dynamic module parameters.
