Operation of SIMOVIS within an Automation System
SIMOVIS can access the drives on a
PROFIBUS DP system when run on a PC or
PG with Step 7 V3.2 or higher. In this case the
Buskon program is not used and SIMOVIS can
be called directly by selecting the required
drive from the Step7 HWConfig program once
the PROFIBUS network has been configured.
Access to the drive parameters is identical to
the standalone case. Details on how to
configure the automation system are to be
found in the relevant Step7 documentation.
The hardware requirement for SIMOVIS is
identical to that for Step 7.
