Distribution
In order to avoid allocation of connection resources being dependent only on
the chronological sequence in which various communication services are
requested, connection resources can be reserved for these services.
For PG and OP communication respectively, at least one connection
resource is reserved by default.
In the table below, and in the technical data of the CPUs, you can find the
configurable S7 connection resources and the default configuration for each
CPU. You "redistribute" connection resources by setting the relevant CPU
parameters in STEP 7.
Here you allocate connection resources which are still available and not
reserved for a specific service (PG/OP communication, S7-based
communication).
The CPUs provide a certain number of connection resources for routing.
These connections are available in addition to the connection resources.
The subsection below shows the number of connection resources.
These communication services do not use connection resources.
This communication service does not occupy any connection resources.
Eight connections are available in parallel.
This communication service does not occupy any connection resources.
