Partner number (inter-station communication)
Specify the partner CP for inter-station communication for the selected data point by
selecting the required partner from the drop-down list. The access ID of the relevant partner
is shown in brackets.
The partners you specified in the "Partner stations" > "Partner for inter-station
communication" can be selected.
Data point index
Index of the corresponding data point on the communications partner.
Note:
●
The data pair of the sending and receiving CP must have an identical data point index. A
receiving data point of CP 2 corresponds to a sending data point of CP 1 with the same
data point index.
●
For the opposite communications direction, a second pair of data points must be created:
A sending data point of CP 2 corresponds to the receiving data point of CP 1. Once
again, both have an identical data point index.

Configuring e-mails
If important events occur, the CP can send e-mails to a communications partner.
For the requirements for using e-mails, see section E-mail configuration (Page 69).
You configure the e-mail in STEP 7 in the editor for the data point and message
configuration. You can find this using the project tree:
Project > directory of the relevant station > Local modules > CP
For the view in STEP 7, refer to the section Data point configuration (Page 82).
General functions of the message editor such as copying or column settings correspond to
those of the data point editor.
