The third option relates to generating
● Subscriber number as comment for stations, CPUs and TIMs
The convenient functions described below represent the automation of several steps in the
STEP 7 system. These functions always relate to all SINAUT networked subscribers; in
other words, to subscribers involved in at least one SINAUT connection.
Regardless of the selected generation options, the internal data is saved and a consistent
version is always available later.
After saving the internal data, a consistency check determines whether the user data is free
of errors. If this is the case, the required functions are executed.
If problems are detected during the consistency check, the functions are
not executed. An
error list is displayed as well as a message indicating the functions that have not been
executed.
As soon as the generation has been completed successfully, this is indicated by a status
dialog.

1.11.2 Generating system data blocks
All the parameters of the TIM module from the hardware setting to information on
communication partners or local connections are packed in system data blocks (SDBs).
SDBs with numbers starting at 1000 are used.
