Export/Import of modules
If a module is defined as being "exportable" in the configuration file (*.cfg), in the
context menu you will find the commands 'Export module' and 'Import module' when
the module is selected in the configuration tree.
With command 'Export module' the dialog for selecting a file will be opened. Here you
can define a file to which the module will be exported in XML format together with all
submodules and their configuration. This file can be imported in another PLC
configuration via command 'Import module', if there an appropriately defined module
is selected in the configuration tree.
Thus in an easy way the configuration tree of a particular module can be transferred
to another PLC configuration.

Base parameters Dialog for an I/O Module
If an I/O module is selected in the configuration tree, the dialog 'Base parameters' is
displayed with the following entries:
Module id: The module id is a unique identifier of the module within the entire
configuration. It is defined by the configuraiton file and it is not editable in the
configuration editor.
Node number: The Node number is defined by an entry in the configuration file or – if
there is no entry – by the position of the module in the configuration structure.
