If encoder 2 (direct encoder) is created at the TO axis, it is assigned to the second encoder of
the drive control.
Result
The configured axis will appear in the project navigator.
Save and compile the project and download it to the target system.
On completion of the axis wizard, the symbolic drive assignment is visible:
● Via the "configuration" of the axis
● Via the address list (view all addresses)
The Assignment dialog box can be called again from these dialog boxes using the
button.
Instead of calling the Assignment dialog box, it is also possible to edit
the input field
containing the symbolic name directly.
TBD, DSDB, and SIDB
In the "Configuration" dialog box of the TO axis, you can activate the following functions from
"Functions" > "Change":
● Technology data block (TDB): for the cyclic exchange of technology data, e.g. actual torque
value
● Drive Safety data block (DSDB), V4.4 and higher: to support the SINAMICS Safety
Integrated Functions by means of the TO
● Safety Info Data Block (SIDB): Predecessor of the DSDB (for compatibility only)
The assignment is always made to the drive DO of the actuator of the axis. The system
automatically generates a telegram extension and the BICO interconnection of the relevant
SINAMICS parameters.
Note
The safety data blocks (DSDB or SIDB) are automatically configured by the engineering
system and interconnected in the drive.
The PROFIsafe telegram must be configured by the user.
If the activation of the safety functions is to be made using PROFIsafe, configure the
PROFIsafe communication to the higher-level SIMATIC F‑CPU (see
SINAMICS S120 Safety
Integrated Function Manual).
I/O signals at the TO axis
For the assignment of I/O signals on the TO axis (e.g. the inputs for the homing output cam
or hardware limit switches), call the assignment dialog box from the parameterization dialog
boxes of the TOs created or from the address list (view of all addresses) by clicking the
button.
