QUESTION:
Why can't I route via the DP interface with a compact CPU and with
the C7-635 when the DP interface has been configured as a
slave?
ANSWER:
In STEP 7 V 5.2 there is no provision for routing with the compact
CPUs (V1.x) via the interface when this has been configured as a
slave. If the compact CPU is configured as a DP master however,
routing is possible.
Compact CPUs V2.0 and higher can route as DP slaves (table 1).
For this you need STEP 7 V 5.2 SP1. In addition, in the
hardware configuration you must set a check mark for
"Commissioning/Test Mode" in the Properties dialog of the DP
interface. This makes the CPUs also become active nodes (I slaves)
on the bus.

Note: In order to use this function, STEP 7 V5.3 is
required for the C7-635 / C7-636 complete systems.
