The index matches the index displayed in the component configurator.
Open the component configurator.
Click "Add..." in the component configurator to create the application. In this case, the application was called "zenon".
Start the startup assistant

Make all further settings with the configuration assistant.
Use the option "Change local settings" to continue with the configuration.
First you will define the hardware configuration.
Insert components
