User-assignable addressing 
User-assignable addressing means you can assign an address of your choice to each 
module or slot, for example, integrated inputs/outputs, drives. You make this assignment in 
the hardware configuration (see 
SIMOTION SCOUT
 online help). Here you specify the 
module start address on which all further module addresses will then be based.    
advantages 
Advantages of user-definable addressing: 
●  You can make the best possible use of the available address spaces because there are 
no "address gaps" between the modules. 
●  When creating standard software, you can specify addresses which are independent of 
the respective configuration of the SIMOTION modules.
