Sync-Manager (Synchronization Manager)

The “Sync-Manager” is displayed at the bottom. This is used to display and edit the synchronization manager of the slave. For each synchronization manager type available (Mailbox In, Mailbox Out, Inputs, Outputs), the physical start address, access type, buffer and physical address to which interrupts should be sent, etc. are defined.

Tip: These are expert settings that are usually not required.
