Scanning of a PROFINET/Ethernet network and identification of all connected CPUs
● Address assignment (IP, subnet, gateway) and station name (PROFINET device) to a
CPU
● Transfer of the date and the programming device/PC time converted to UTC time to the
module
● Program download to CPU
● Operating mode switchover RUN/STOP
● Localization of the CPU by means of LED flashing
● Reading out CPU error information
● Reading the CPU diagnostic buffer
● Reset to factory settings
● Updating the firmware of the CPU and connected modules
You can find the SIMATIC Automation Tool on the Internet With PRONETA (PROFINET network analysis), you analyze the PROFINET
network during commissioning. PRONETA features two core functions:
● The topology overview independently scans PROFINET and all connected components.
● The IO check is a fast test of the wiring and the module configuration of a system.
You can find PRONETA on the Internet The module has the following technical properties:
● 16 digital inputs; electrically isolated in groups of 4
● Rated input voltage 120/230 V AC
● Suitable for switches and 2-/3-/4-wire AC proximity switches (alternating voltage)Module-internal Shared Input (MSI) V2.0.0 or higher V13 Update 3 or higher

You can configure the module with STEP 7 (TIA Portal) and with a GSD file.
Accessories
The following accessories are supplied with the module and can also be ordered separately
as spare parts:
● Labeling strips
● U connector
● Universal front door
Other components
The following component can be ordered separately:
Front connectors, including potential jumpers and cable ties
You can find additional information on accessories in the /ET 200MPDo not insert the potential jumpers included with the front connector!
Wiring and block diagram

Figure 3-1 Block diagram and terminal assignThe module can be configured differently in STEP 7; see following table. Depending on the
configuration, additional/different addresses are assigned in the process image of the inputs.
The letters "a to d" are printed on the module - "EB a", for example, stands for module start
address input byte a.
Configuration options of DI 16x230VAC BA
You can configure the module with STEP 7 (TIA Portal) or with a GSD file.
When you configure the module by means of the GSD file, the configurations are available
under different abbreviations/module names.
The following configurations are possible:1 x 16-channel without value

DI 16x230VAC BA V12 or higher X
2 x 8-channel without value status

Value status (Quality Information, QI)
The value status is always activated for the DI 16x230VAC BA MSI module.
An additional bit is assigned to each channel for the value status. In contrast to the modules
with diagnostics capability, the module only shows information regarding the parameter
assignment of the first submodule (basic submodule) in the value status.
The module does not supply a value status for the read-in digital value.The following figure shows the address space allocation for the configuration as 16-channel
module. You can freely assign the start address for the module. The addresses of the
channels are derived from the start address.
Figure 4-1 Address space for configuration as 16-channel DI 16x230VAC BA For the configuration as a 2 x 8-channel module, the channels of the module are divided into
multiple submodules. The submodules can be assigned to different IO controllers when the
module is used in a shared device.
The number of usable IO controllers depends on the interface module used. Please observe
the information in the manual for the particular interface module.
Contrary to the 1 x 16-channel module configuration, each of the two submodules has a
freely assignable start address.The channels 0 to 15 of the module are
