Kunbus Configurator III Profibus - Modify module start address

Hi all,

 

I'm trying to configure a Profibus network between a Comsoft DF Profi II PXI card as a master, and a Siemens S7-300 PLC (CPU 315-2 PN/DP) as a slave.

Downloaded the CPU GSD files from the  Siemens website and installed it in Configurator III - all ok

Comsoft DF Profi II PXI card ok in MAX  and was able to download/flash a dummy Profibus configuration/project using Configurator III.

In the PLC the Profibus signals are mapped from address 100 onwards.

For the example below I would like to define a 2 byte output module with the start address 100.

However the start address is greyed out.

Q: Is there any way to change the start address for a input or output module? For this example the only way I can seem to get to 100 is by adding "padding"  modules.  

(I remember I was able to do this with Sycon/Hilscher, i.e. change the start address)
