Configuring data points and messages

Data point-related communication with the CPU
No program blocks need to be programmed for the CP to transfer user data between the
station and communications partner. The data areas in the memory of the CPU intended for
communication with the partner are configured data point-related on the CP. Each data point
is linked to a PLC tag or a data block on the CPU.
Requirement: Created PLC tags and/or data blocks (DBs)
PLC tags or DBs must first be created in the CPU program to allow configuration of the data
points.
The PLC tags for data point configuration can be created in the standard tag table or in a
user-defined tag table. All PLC tags intended to be used for data point configuration must
have the attribute "Visible in HMI".
Address areas of the PLC tags are input, output or bit memory areas on the CPU.

A set sysName is sent as the host name using DHCP option 12 to the DHCP server to
