Identification & Maintenance Data
Identification and maintenance data (I&M data) is information stored in a device. I&M data
uniquely identifies a device within a system. The identification data (I data) includes information
about the device, for example the item number and device name. Identification data cannot be
changed.
Maintenance data (M data) includes information regarding the device within the system, for
example the installation location and installation date. Maintenance data is initially stored in the
device during installation; this data can be changed.
Data Input
The Step7 software from Siemens can be used to display and change the I&M data. You can
read and write I&M data 1, 2 and 3 in the "Target System" menu of the HW Config hardware
configuration using the functions "Download Module Identification" and "Download Module
Identification to PG".
