Hi friends,

I am doing an offline project  in TIA  v15.1. When I am configuring an ET200SP and I place an output card the software shows a range for input addresses as well and not solely for output addresses which does not make sense right. Why does this happen?

Thanks

Hello SpikeStart;

Your F-DO modules uses 4 digital outputs to command field devices.

For each DO signal there is an accompanying DI called the "value status" to validate the quality of the DO channel. The specific DI signal will be 1 if the channel is OK, or 0 if there is a wire-break or a short-circuit on the connection to field.

See the attachment below, from the 6ES716-6DB00-0CA0manual:

Hope this helps,
