6.2 Configuring the CPU
Requirements
The following requirements must be met before you can execute the option:
● The CPU is connected to the programming device/PC via the PROFINET interface.
Interfaces of CMs/CPs are also supported.
● The hardware configuration and software to be uploaded to the device must be
compatible with STEP 7.
● Modules present in the device from GSD (ML), HSPs, or service packs must be installed
in STEP 7 on the programing device/PC.
● A project must be open. This project can be a new (empty) project or an existing project.
Note
Upload device as new station to an existing project
When you upload a device as new station to an existing project, make sure there are no
conflicts between the name of the existing components and the components to be uploaded,
for example, the name of the CPU is already used in the existing project.
If conflicts exist, follow these steps:
• Change the names/IP addresses used in the project.
• Compile the affected stations.
• Re-start the function Upload device as new station (hardware and software)".
