Assign device name via communication table

Introduction
You can assign the device names of PROFINET IO devices configured offline to the devices
online. You can do this in the table area of the network view in the table "I/O
communication". You can also assign the device names to several devices at the same time.
"Online assignment" tab
In the I/O communication table, you will find the tabs "Offline configuration" and "Online
assignment". In the "Online assignment" tab, you can assign the PROFINET device names
that were assigned offline to the corresponding IO devices online. To do this, use the buttons
"Check devices" and "Assign now".
Figure 3-8 Assign device name via communication table
The objects displayed in the table of the "Online assignment" tab depend on the setting of
the filter function. If only selected objects should be displayed, only objects of the
corresponding context are displayed depending on the selection in the network view.
● PROFINET subnet: All connected devices and their PROFINET interfaces
● IO system All devices involved and their PROFINET interfaces
● Sync domain: All devices involved and their PROFINET interfaces
● Devices: The device and any existing PROFINET interfaces
● Other subnets or interfaces such as MPI or PROFIBUS are not displayed
If the display is set for all devices using the filter function, all devices are displayed that have
a PROFINET interface, regardless of whether they are connected via a PROFINET subnet
or are part of an IO system. Devices without a PROFINET interface, for example only with a
DP or MPI interface, are not displayed.
