Viewing messages in the info area

If, after a configuration change, e.g. deviations from the default scheme, the I/O addresses
cause conflicts, this information can be viewed in the message log until the TIA Portal is
restarted. This message log is displayed in various inspector windows depending on the
message type:
● For example, messages displayed when the device configuration is changed are listed
under "Info > General".
● Some conflicts are checked only during the compilation. Such messages are not displayed
under "Info > General", but rather under "Info > Compile".
Check these messages in order to be able to align the I/O address entries in the TIA Portal with
the NCU machine data.
The most recent message is always displayed in the status bar of the TIA Portal (lower right).
This shows at any time whether conflicts have occurred.
The message log is deleted when the TIA Portal is closed or restarted. Therefore rectify or note
any conflicts before exiting the TIA Portal. If this is not possible, you can discard the changes
that caused the conflicts or display the information in some other way (e.g. in the address
overview (Page 117)) before exiting.
Requirement
The default I/O addresses were already assigned at a configuration change (or during the
compilation) so that alternative valid I/O addresses were assigned.
