7. Step: Configuring the axis(axes) with S7T Config
Important information
In this step, you create your technology objects (e.g. axes) with S7T Config. Use
"Technology Objects Management" to generate a technology DB for each TO. Do not copy
the technology DBs in order to ensure a defined assignment between the technology DB and
its TO.
