Example:
Two machine control panels (MCPs) are to be connected to the MPI of a con-
troller. The first MCP can be connected to bus address 15 (GD circle 1), and the
second to bus address 12 (GD circle 2).
Note
If, for example PLC-PLC cross-communication is to be configured on the MPI
using the STEP 7 “Communication Configuration” tool, and one or more MCPs
are connected to the MPI, you should ensure that the allocation of GD circles is
unique. The STEP 7 “Communication Configuration” tool allocates GD circles in
ascending order starting with GD circle 1. If the MCPs are connected to the
operator panel interface, there is no effect on PLC-PLC communication on the
MPI.
Example:
“Communication Configuration” allocates GD circles 1 and 2 for PLC-PLC
cross-communication. A first MCP on the MPI can then be connected to GD
circle 3 (bus address 9 or 10), and a second MCP on the MPI can be connected
to GD circle 4 (bus address 7 or 8).
