The DQ 8x24VDC/0.5A M12-L 8xM12 I/O device can be configured differently; see following
table. Depending on the configuration, additional/different addresses are assigned in the
process images.
Configuration options of the DQ 8x24VDC/0.5A M12-L 8xM12 I/O device
You can configure the I/O device digital outputs with STEP 7 (TIA Portal) or with a GSD file.
When you configure the I/O device by means of the GSD file, the configurations are available
under different short designations/device names in the device view of your configuration
software.
The following configurations are possible:
Table 4- 2

Address space for configuration as 1 x 8-channel DQ 8x24VDC
The following figure shows the address space allocation for the configuration as 8-channel
I/O device digital outputs without value status. The start address for the I/O device can be
assigned freely. The addresses of the channels are derived from the start address.
