Assigning parameters for the HMI device in STEP 7

6.1

Checklist "Assign parameters for the HMI device"

Parameter assignment in STEP 7 and on the HMI device are required for operation of the
HMI device. Information on how to assign parameters of the fail-safe I/O in STEP 7, is
available in the Programming and operation manual "S7 Distributed Safety - Configuring and
Programming" (http://support.automation.siemens.com/WW/view/en/22099875) and in the
"Safety Technology in SIMATIC S7" system manual
(http://support.automation.siemens.com/WW/view/en/12490443).

Integrating GSDML in STEP 7

If the HMI device is not listed in the hardware catalog of HW Config, you need to integrate a
valid GSD (device database) file for the HMI device in the STEP 7 database.
