Configuring the mapping table of the signal designations

Requirement
● Management of control modules types has been carried out.
The templates of the control module types have been created.
See chapter Management of control module types (Page 25).
● A control module has been inserted.
● The "Units" tab is open in the Navigator.
Objective
You edit the mapping table in the engineering data. To do this, edit the mapping table at a CM
as an example. Afterwards, save the mapping table in the templates. It is then available for all
CMs of this type.
Calling a mapping table
1. Select the "Units" tab in the Navigator.
2. In the DSC structure, navigate to the inserted control module below a folder.
3. Open the properties of the control module.
4. Select the "Attributes > Automation Interface" tab.
5. Click the "Open mapping table" button.
Step 1: Collecting PCS 7 attributes
1. Keep the mapping table open.
2. Expand the structure below the control module used in the previous step.
Only attributes are allowed that are located below the control module, and for which the
mapping table was opened. For the example in this documentation, use the following
attributes:
– Control module, "Automation Interface" tab: "Name"
– Signal under the control module, tab "Automation Interface": "Signal name"
