Configuring the safety PLC
After the drive has initialized the FB module, you must prepare the safety PLC for
communication with the adapter module. Examples of ABB AC500-S Safety PLC and
Siemens SIMATIC Fail-safe S7 PLC are given below. The examples include the
minimum required steps for starting the PROFINET and PROFIsafe communication
with the FB and FSO modules. For detailed information, see the documentation of
your safety PLC.
The examples apply to all drive types that are compatible with the FB and FSO
modules.
Downloading the GSD file
To configure the controller station, you need a type definition (GSD) file. In
PROFINET IO, the GSD file is written in an XML-based language called GSDML.
Download the FB module GSD file from the ABB Document library
(
). The file name format is:
GSDML-Vx.x-ABB-
FENA-yyyymmdd.xml
or
GSDML-Vx.x-ABB-FPNO-yyyymmdd.xml.
•
The GSD file describes the vendor-specific, PROFIdrive-specific and PROFIsafe-
specific features of the adapter module. You can use the vendor-specific features, for
example, in the ABB Drives communication profile. The PROFIdrive profile supports
a set of services described in the PROFIdrive specification.
The actual PROFIsafe messages are processed in the FSO module. The GSD file
and the instructions in this chapter refer to the FB module which is the device that is
connected to PROFINET.
Configuring the ABB AC500-S Safety PLC
This example shows how to configure the communication between the ABB AC500-S
Safety PLC and the FENA-21 adapter module using Automation Builder 2.0.
Before you use the safety configuration and programming tools in Automation
Builder, you must study the AC500-S Safety PLC user manual (
AC500-S Safety User
Manual
(3ADR025091M0207 [English]). Only qualified persons are allowed to work
with the AC500-S Safety PLC.
You need a password to configure the safety parts of an Automation Builder project.
In all new
projects, there is a default user "Owner" with an empty password. This is a
project administrator who can, for example, access the safety controller station. For
detailed information on the passwords and access permissions in Automation Builder,
see the AC500-S Safety PLC user manual.
You can find the complete documentation of ABB PLCs and Automation Builder 2.0
