23.5 Module Information
23.5.1 Options for Displaying the Module Information
You can display the "Module Information" dialog box from different starting points. The following
procedures are examples of frequently used methods of calling module information:
• In the SIMATIC Manager from a window with the project view "online" or "offline."
• In the SIMATIC Manager from an "Accessible Nodes" window
• In the diagnostic view of HW Config
In order to display the status of a module with its own node address, you require an online
connection to the programmable controller. You establish this connection via the online view of a
project or via the "Accessible Nodes" window.
