Configuring the PC Station

Overview
After starting the PC station, after installing the software and installing the
hardware, the CP 5613 is in PG operation.
By adding the CP 5613 in the Station Configuration Editor, the module is
automatically switched to the "configured mode".
Handling the Project Engineering Data
Depending on the case, two situations must be distinguished (see Section 2.2):
S Project engineering before initial configuration - XDB file available
S Initial configuration not dependent on project engineering
In this example, we assume that no project engineering data is available in the
form of an XDB file. The initial configuration is therefore specified in the Station
Configuration Editor.
The initial configuration specified with the Station Configuration Editor can later be
transferred to the central engineering station on which the automation solution is
created.
