Basicaly, yes.
You can externaly (via DP master) set SMB200 to MSB249 to macth your needs.

But it is very hard to 'guess' data area where are variables you want to read/write, when you got a locked program.
And, if those variables are not in compast blocks (lenght of 64byte for I and Q), you are in big trouble.

No, just for Profibus slave. There are no system commands to apply PPI protocol through port on expansion module.
