Default Settings in the PLC Configuration \ for PM55x and PM56x

Once you have selected the AC500 CPU (PM55x and PM56x) in the target settings, the CPU can be configured. To do this, select the object “PLC Configuration” in the “Resources” tab.

In case of a new AC500 project, the PLC configuration for PM55x and PM56x contains the following default settings:

Note

These default settings can be restored at any time by selecting “Extras” / “Standard configuration”. Do not change the default settings under “Settings”!

The parameters represent the interfaces of the AC500 controllers. Each interface can be configured.

The individual parameters are used to configure the following elements:

Element	Configuration
CPU parameters	CPU parameters
I/O	Onboard digital and analog I/Os, e.g. 6DI+6DO+2AI+1AO
I/O-Bus	Input/output modules that are directly connected to the CPU.
Interfaces	Serial interfaces COM1 and COM2.

The PLC configuration is based on the configuration files (*.cfg) installed with the TSP.
