Configuring Hardware and Communication Connections STEP 7.pdf

Networking Stations
The connection points in the network view look like this ("PG/PC(1))" and
("PG/PC(2)"):
You can now assign your PG one of the "PG/PC" symbols (to identify the device
you intend to use for accessing stations online). Assignment updates the interfaces
in the programming device (PG or PC) to match the configured settings. If you
change your configured settings (e.g. by modifying the transmission rate or another
network property), the interface in your PG or PC will be updated automatically.
Procedure
1. If the PG/PC has already been assigned: Reverse the assignment by selecting
the "PG/PC" symbol and activating the PLC > Remove PG/PC Assignment
menu command. The assigned PG/PC symbol differs from the symbol for nonassigned
PGs/PCs.
2. Select a "PG/PC" symbol in the network view to represent the programming
device you have connected.
3. Select the PLC > Assign PG/PC menu command.
4. Use the "Assignment" tab to assign a set of interface parameters in your
programming device (your PG/PC)to an interface of the "PG/PC" symbol.
