Combining Modules For Configuration - Siemens SIMATIC ET 200S Operating Instructions Manual

Configuring by means of the GSD file
You configure the ET 200S distributed I/O system using the GSD file. The ET 200S is linked
as norm slave in your system via the GSD file. You can download the GSD file for ET 200S
from the Internet (http://support.automation.siemens.com/WW/view/en/652154):

Combining modules for configuration

You can only combine digital modules or motor starters with useful data amounting to less
than 1 byte.
Introduction
The ET 200S has a maximum address area of:
● IM151-1 BASIC: up to 88 bytes for inputs and 88 bytes for outputs.
● IM151-1 COMPACT: up to 100 bytes for inputs and 100 bytes for outputs.
● IM151-1 STANDARD (up to 6ES7151-1AA03-0AB0), IM151-1 FO STANDARD (up to
● IM151-1 STANDARD (from 6ES7151-1AA04-0AB0), IM151-1 HIGH FEATURE: up to
To better utilize the available address space of the DP master and reduce data exchange
between the ET 200S and the DP master, you can group several electronic modules/load
feeders within one byte in the input or output area of the process image. This is achieved by
the systematic arrangement and designation of the ET 200S electronic modules/motor
starters.
A list of the address space requirements for the individual modules is to be found in the
appendix.
You can combine the following device types within one byte:
● Digital input modules
● Digital output modules
● Motor starters (direct starters and reversing starters)
