Identification and maintenance data

10.7.1 Reading out and entering I&M data
I&M data
Identification and maintenance data (I&M data) is data saved on the module as read-only
(I data) or read/write (M data) information.
Identification data (I&M0): Manufacturer information about the module that can only be read
and is in part also printed on the housing of the module, for example, article number and
serial number.
Maintenance data (I&M1, 2, 3): Plant-dependent information, e.g. installation location.
Maintenance data for the S7-1500/ET 200MP is created during configuration and
downloaded to the automation system/distributed I/O system.
All modules of the S7-1500/ET 200MP support identification data (I&M0 through I&M3).
The I&M identification data supports you in the following activities:
● Checking the plant configuration
● Locating hardware changes in a plant
● Correcting errors in a plant
Modules can be clearly identified online using the I&M identification data.
You can read out the identification data with STEP 7 (see online help for STEP 7).
Options for reading out I&M data
● Via the user program
● Using the display of the CPU
● Via STEP 7 or HMI devices
● Via the CPU web server
