System- and communication configuring D7-SYS - SIMADYN D
Edition 12.2003
The configuration of the individual slaves can be subsequently changed
and adapted.
1. Select the particular symbol in the display above by clicking on it twice
with the mouse. You can return to the configuration dialog boxes via
the "Slave characteristics" window.
2. To complete parameterization, the bus parameters must be set as a
final step. A dialog window is opened under
Configuring > Bus
parameters...
In this window only the bus profile (PROFIBUS-DP)
and the baud rate are of importance for this typical configuration. The
baud rate must coincide with that specified in the CFC, and in our
example is limited by the ET 200 U and the CB1 communications
module of the SIMOVERT Master Drive (currently: 1.5 Mbaud).

3. This completes the configuration of the SS52 for this typical
configuration, and it can now be saved.
The next step when setting-up the SS52 configuration is to transfer this
configured software into the memory of the SS52 communication module.
There are two ways to do this:
•
Transfer data via a second module interface (RS232) which is located
on the same 9-pin sub-D connector as for the RS485.
−
Data transfer via RS232 can be executed using a standard PC
interface (COM 1 or COM 2) whereby a special transfer program
named "SS52load" downloads data into the SS52 memory.
−
This download requires the "2bf" file format. This is why the
marked "Host system <2>" must be converted into the correct
format via the menu command
File > Export > Binary file...
(the
host systems must be separately handled for this operation). The
SS52 configuration file is thus now located in the root directory of
the COM PROFIBUS program in the directory "\progdat" for
transfer to the module.
•
Transfer data via the PROFIBUS interface RS485 (is directly
supported by COM PROFIBUS).
−
Transfer via RS485 is not discussed, as a special PC interface
card (e. g. CP 5411) is required in this case.
