Sequence of the assignment of S7 connections
When the system is configured with STEP 7, parameter blocks are generated that
are read out when the module is initialized. Thus, the module operating system
reserves or assigns the corresponding S7 connections. This means, for example,
that an Operator Station cannot access a reserved S7 connection for PD
communication.
If the module (CPU) also has S7 connections that are not reserved, these are free
to be used as required. The assignment of these S7 connections is in the order in
which the requirements arises.
Example
If there is only one remaining free S7 connection on the CPU, you can connect a
PD to the bus. The PD is then able to communicate with the CPU. However, the
S7 connection is only assigned when the PD communicates with the CPU.
If you connect an OP to the bus at precisely the time when the PD is not
communicating, the OP builds up a connection to the CPU. However, because an
OP, unlike a PD, maintains a permanent communication connection, you will no
longer be able to establish a connection via the PD.
