Commissioning (overview of procedure)
Procedure
Offline commissioning with project
Online commissioning with project
PDM stand alone without
project
Advantag‐
es
Engineering is possible without hardware.
You perform the commissioning in conclu‐
sion.
Fast commissioning through efficient
determination of devices present in the
system and direct assignment of pa‐
rameters in the system
Advance commissioning
with real devices and cor‐
rect parameters without a
project in PCS 7 or STEP 7
Procedure 1. CFU: Configuring (Page 83)
2. Optional (If you perform this step, step
8 can be omitted)
Topology: Configuring (Page 79)
If you configure the topology, this
enables automatic name assignment
on device replacement in PCS 7
systems through use of neighborhood
relationships.
3. Freely configurable
channels: Configuring (Page 85)
and assigning parameters (Page 94)
4. Field devices: Configuring (Page 88)
5. Compile the configuration.
6. Establish the online connection to the
automation system.
7. Download the configuration to the
automation system.
8. Assigning device name (Page 78)
9. LED status: Checking (Page 107)
If necessary, open the module
information in order to receive more
precise diagnostic information.
10. Optional:
CFU: Assigning parameters via
SIMATIC PDM (Page 100)
11. CFU PA field devices: Assigning
parameters via SIMATIC PDM
(Page 103)
1. Online: Assigning device name
2. CFU: Configuring (Page 84)
3. Optional:
Topology Configuring (Page 79)
If you configure the topology, this
enables automatic name
assignment on device replacement
in PCS 7 systems through use of
neighborhood relationships.
4. Compile the configuration.
5. Download the configuration to the
automation system.

Assigning parameters for freely
configurable channels
8. Optional:
CFU: Assigning parameters via
SIMATIC PDM (Page 100)
9. CFU PA field devices: Assigning
parameters via SIMATIC PDM
(Page 100)
2. Process devices
network view: Creating
networks and inserting
a CFU (Page 105)
5. CFU PA field devices:
Assigning parameters
via SIMATIC PDM
(Page 103)
Result
All steps up to step 6 can be performed
without hardware.
Commissioning is performed starting
from step 7.
● CFU and field device
parameters are
assigned.
● CFU is not linked to
any project.
The CFU is in data exchange mode with the IO Controller.
