This section describes the configuration and engineering on the SIMATIC S7 side with the SIMATIC TIA Portal for ibaBM-DP.

On the SIMATIC TIA Portal side, carry out the following configuration steps:

• Network configuration: Integration of the PROFIBUS slaves in the device configuration

• Configuration software: Integration of the Request blocks in the S7 program

• Device configuration: Setting the CPU protection properties

You cannot use the S7 Request (ibaCom-L2B compatible) and S7 Request Dig512 (ibaCom-L2B compatible) compatibility modules in combination with a CPU S7-1500.
