6.5 System status lists for PROFINET IO
Introduction
The CPU makes certain information available and stores this information in the "System
status list".
The system status list describes the current status of the automation system. It provides an
overview of the configuration, the current parameter assignment, the current statuses and
sequences in the CPU, and the assigned modules.
The system status list data can only be read out, but not be changed. The system status list
is a virtual list that is compiled only on request.
From a system status list you receive the following information via the PROFINET IO
system:
● System data
● Module status information in the CPU
● Diagnostic data from a module
● Diagnostic buffer
Compatibility of the New System Status Lists
For PROFINET IO, some new system status lists were created, among other things,
because larger configurations are now possible with PROFINET.
You can also use these new system status lists with PROFIBUS.
You can continue to use a known PROFIBUS system status list that is also supported by
PROFINET. If you use a system status list in PROFINET that PROFINET does not support,
an error code is returned in RET_VAL (8083: Index wrong or not permitted).
