Siemens SCALANCE X-200 Operating Instructions Manual page 23

Compatible devices
As a general rule, the data on the C-PLUG is only compatible with devices having an
identical order number and the same device name.
The device combinations shown in the following table are exceptions. With these devices,
the exchange of the C-PLUG is possible in one direction.
Device type
X204-2
X204-2LD
X206-1
X206-1LD
X208
X208PRO
Note
Combinations other than those shown in the table are not compatible with each other.
Note
If you insert a C-PLUG in a compatible device, the system name of the original device is
entered both in the system name as well as in the PROFINET IO device name of the
compatible device.
Using a previously written C-PLUG
If you want to insert a C-PLUG that has already been used and written to into a new
differently configured X-200 IE switch, you will first need to delete the existing data on the C-
PLUG. You will find information about this in the configuration manual of the SCALANCE X-
200 in the section on the WBM menu items.
Note
The X-200 IE switches normally start up with the configuration of the C-PLUG, assuming this
was written to by a compatible device type. If the C-PLUG was written to by an incompatible
device type, the basic device will not start up fully and signals an error. The WBM menu
"System C-PLUG" is displayed automatically. Here, use the "Modify C-PLUG" function to
specify whether or not the device operates with a C-PLUG.
If you operate a device with a C-PLUG, the C-PLUG can either be initialized with the factory
settings or with the settings stored internally on the device.
