Note

During the analysis of the subscriber data, if the configuration software detects that STEP

7 homogeneous connections are necessary for processing a SINAUT ST7 connection,

these are created automatically. These are connections from the S7-400 CPU to a TIM

module and from TIM to TIM module over the MPI bus and over communication block

connections.

As an alternative, the user can create these connections manually during network

configuration. Existing connections are automatically used by the SINAUT configuration

tool.
