Starting up the device - Configuration
The functionality of the BCL 248i is defined via parameter sets. The parameters and their functions are
structured in the GSD file using modules. A user-specific configuration tool is used during PLC program
creation to integrate the required modules and configure them appropriately for their respective use. During
operation of the BCL 248i on the PROFINET-IO, all parameters are set to default values. If these parame-
ters are not changed by the user, the device functions with the default settings delivered by Leuze.
For the default settings of the BCL 248i, please refer to the following module descriptions.

Step 3 – Hardware configuration of the S7 PLC: Configuration
Ä Configure the PROFINET-IO system with the HW Config of the SIMATIC Manager by inserting the
BCL 248i into your project.
ð Here, an IP address is assigned to a unique "device name".

Step 4 – Transmit the configuration to the IO controller
Ä Transmit the PROFINET-IO configuration to the IO controller (S7 PLC).
After correct transmission to the IO controller (S7 PLC), the PLC automatically carries out the following ac-
tivities:
• Check of device names
• Assignment of the IP addresses that were configured in the HW Config to the IO devices
• Establishment of a connection between the IO Controller and configured IO devices
• Cyclical data exchange

Participants that have not been "named" cannot be contacted yet at this point in time.
