STARTER SINAMICS drive commissioning tool
The SINAMICS STARTER drive commissioning tool communicates with the SINAMCS S120
drives via PROFIBUS only.
If the STARTER is connected to the SINUMERIK 840Di sl via Ethernet link, within the
framework of the S7 project for configuring the PLC the PG/PC on which the STARTER runs
must be linked by means of SIMATIC STEP 7 "NetPro" with the SINUMERIK 840Di sl. The
SINUMERIK 840Di sl PLC then routes the STARTER on the PROFIBUS to the SINAMICS
drives
The networking is described in Subsection "Networking of PG/PC and PCU
Note
The SINAMICS STARTER drive commissioning tool can only be operated currently on a
SINUMERIK 840Di sl PCU if at least one of the two Ethernet interfaces is active. To do this,
at least one component must be connected to the relevant Ethernet interface, e.g. an "MCP
483C IE" machine control panel to Ethernet interface 2 (system network), and communicate
with the SINUMERIK 840Di sl.
7.4
External HMI Advanced
If the SINUMERIK HMI Advanced user interface is not installed on the SINUMERIK 840Di sl
PCU, but on an external computer, e.g. PCU 50.3 with OP 012 (referred to as HMI PCU),
there must be an Ethernet connection established between both computers.
