Integration of SIMOCODE pro V PN in SIMATIC STEP 7 V5 via OM
SIMOCODE pro
Integration of SIMOCODE pro V PN in SIMATIC STEP 7 V5 via OM SIMOCODE pro
In addition to integration via GSD, with SIMATIC S7 controllers from Siemens it is possible to
integrate SIMOCODE pro V PN in STEP 7 V5 using the "Object Manager (OM)
SIMOCODE pro V PN" software in STEP 7 as part of Totally Integrated Automation (TIA).
The advantage is that the SIMOCODE ES parameterization software can be called directly
from STEP 7 HW Config and can be used for developing SIMOCODE pro V PN device
parameters.
The SIMOCODE pro device parameters are stored in the STEP 7 project. After transmission
of the hardware configuration, the device parameters are available in the form of start-up
parameter data records in the CPU and are automatically transmitted during start-up.
The necessary OM SIMOCODE pro V PN software is part of SIMOCODE ES. During
installation of SIMOCODE ES, select the "Integration in STEP 7" installation option to use
the described function.
When the hardware is being configured, SIMOCODE pro V PN is integrated by selecting
SIMOCODE pro in the hardware catalog from STEP 7 HW Config under
"PROFINET
IO → Switching Devices → Motor Management System".
Insert the SIMOCODE pro V PN into the PROFINET IO system.
Select one of the three possible basic types (see Integration of SIMOCODE pro into the
automation system (PLC) (Page 48), figures "Cyclic data to SIMOCODE pro" and "Cyclic
data from SIMOCODE pro").
Note
Changing the slot
It is only possible to change the slot by selecting another SIMOCODE type!
When using SIMOCODE pro V PN in conjunction with the fail-safe DM-F PROFIsafe digital
module, select the relevant configuration with PROFIsafe.
