● Configuration in STEP 7 V5 and STEP 7 Basic
For the CP initially a proxy module is configured in STEP 7 V5 that is based on the
TIM 3V-IE Advanced. The configuration data is exported via the SINAUT diagnostics and
service tool as a text file.
Following this, the CP is created in a STEP 7 Basic project, the STEP 7 V5 configuration
data is imported via the text file and the remaining parameters and the data points (see
below) are configured.
For details of the configuration, refer to the following sections:
Requirements for operation (Page 19)
Configuration in STEP 7 (Page 45)
● Data point configuration
Due to the data point configuration in STEP 7 Basic, programming program blocks in
order to transfer the process data is unnecessary. The process data is configured as
individual data points and transferred one-to-1 to the master station.
● IP configuration
Characteristics of the IP configuration of the Ethernet interface of the CP:
– The CP supports IP addresses according to IPv4.
– Address assignment:
● Time-of-day synchronization
– If telecontrol communication is enabled, the CP can obtain its time of day from the
– If telecontrol communication is disabled, the time of day can be obtained from an NTP
The time of day of the CP can be read by the CPU. The mechanisms are described in the
STEP 7 information system.
For more information, refer to the section Time-of-day synchronization (Page 47).
● Access to the Web server of the CPU
With the aid of the Web server of the CPU, you can read out module data from the
station.

The IP address, the subnet mask and the address of a gateway can be set manually
in the configuration.
As an alternative, the IP address can be obtained from a DHCP server or by other
means outside the configuration.
