Timebase
All signals of the module are sampled on this timebase.

This option puts the module name in front of the signal names.
S7
CPU Name
Select the S7-CPU that is connected to this module. When selecting a S7-CPU (incl. the address book), you can select the signals symbolically. Otherwise, you select the signals via the S7 operand.
This requires that address books have already been generated. Otherwise, the selection list is empty. Using Create address book in the selection list, you get directly to the address book generator, see Creating address books offline from S7 project.
