Adding interface modules in STEP 7

Always switch off power before you install the IM460 and IM461 interface modules, external
CP443-5 Extended DP master interface module and their connecting cables.
Always switch off power to an entire subsystem. To ensure that this does not influence the
process, always set the subsystem to STOP before you do so.
Procedure
1. Change the hardware configuration offline (see section STEP 7, step 2: Offline
2. Expand and download the organization blocks (see section STEP 7, step 3: Expanding
3. Stop the reserve CPU (see section STEP 7, step 4: Stopping the reserve CPU
4. Download the new hardware configuration to the reserve CPU (see section STEP 7, step
5. Proceed as follows to expand the subsystem of the present reserve CPU:
6. Switch to CPU with altered configuration (see section STEP 7, step 6: Switch to CPU with
