Procedure 2: The machine manufacturer knows the serial number of the new converter
and the serial number of the memory card
1. The end customer provides the machine manufacturer with the following information:
– For which machine must the converter be replaced?
– What is the serial number (r7758) of the new converter?
– What is the serial number of the memory card?
2. The machine manufacturer performs the following steps online on the prototype machine:
– Deactivating know-how protection
Activating and deactivating know-how protection (Page 152)
– Enter the serial number of the new converter in p7759.
– Enter the serial number of the customer's memory card as reference serial number in
p7769.
– Activate know-how protection with copy protection. "Copy RAM to ROM" must be
activated.
– Write the configuration with p0971 = 1 to the memory card.
– Copy the encrypted project from the card to the associated PC.
– Send the encrypted project to the end customer, e.g. via e-mail.
3. The end user copies the project to the Siemens memory card that belongs to the machine.
4. The end user inserts the Siemens memory card into the converter.
5. The end user switches on the converter power supply.
6. The converter checks the serial numbers of the card and the converter, and when there is a
match the converter goes into the "Ready for switching on" state.
If the numbers do not match, then the converter signals fault F13100 (no valid memory
card).
The settings have been transferred to the converter.
