PROFINET IO Module - I/O Mapping

Object: PROFINET IO module

This tab shows the name of the automatically generated module instance in the Variable column of IEC Objects. You can then access this instance via the application. In this way, you can use an application to restart, stop, or check the status of the slave.

Project variables are mapped to the outputs and inputs of the slave on this tab.

Please refer to the description for the general I/O mapping dialog.
