9.2.3 Opening the hardware configuration
For hardware environment settings, such as PLC module configuration, CPU environment
setting, and module address setting, you will use the hardware configuration screen to open
the hardware configuration.
1. Click on a station (SIMATIC 300 Station (1) in this example) in the SIMATIC manager
screen.
2. Double-click on the Hardware icon in the right frame.
The hardware configuration function will start up.
If the selected station has its hardware already configured, that hardware configuration
is displayed. If not, a blank window results (see the figure above).
3. Click on the catalog icon of the hardware configuration screen’s tool bar.
A hardware catalog is displayed listing the modules and other products for the
SIMATIC300, SIMATIC400, and PROFIBUS-DP categories.
You can create a new hardware configuration in the hardware configuration window using
these products. For example, click on the plus sign (+) before the SIMATIC300 category in
the hardware catalog, and the following product groups will be displayed:
