1.1 General
The PCS 7 library SIRIUS Soft Starter 3RW44 V6.1/V7.0 + SP1 integrates 3RW44 soft
starter devices into the PCS 7 environment. The requirements of TIA (Totally Integrated
Automation) are thus met.
The software package PCS 7 block library SIRIUS Soft Starter 3RW44 V6.1/V7.0+ SP1
contains the following components:
Block library (function blocks and user interface) with:
Diagnostic block SS_DIAG
Signal blocks SS_DIR, SS_MEAS and SS_STAT
List Manual in German, English, and Portuguese
Online help in German and English
"Getting Started" in German and English
Installation program
Readme file for installation
1.2 Installing the library
Starting the installation
1. Place the CD in the CD-ROM drive of your PG/PC.
2. Launch the "setup.exe" program.
All the other information you need will be provided during the installation process.

Note
Readme file
Note the information in the readme file.

Introduction
1.3 Configuration steps
1.3 Configuration steps
Procedure
1. Configuring with HW Config
2. Make the necessary interconnections for the inputs and outputs in the CFC Editor
In so doing, all of the inputs and outputs used must be within the process image.
3. Compile the CFC chart using the "Generate Module Driver" function.
1.4 Handling the driver generator
The "Generate Module Driver" function is available for signal processing in PCS 7. Once the
hardware has been configured in HW Config and the technological functions have been
configured in the CFC, this function automatically generates, interconnects, and
parameterizes the required module drivers. These module drivers are responsible for
diagnosing and reporting errors during signal processing.
The Setup program installs XML files for the connection between the 3RW44 soft starter and
the driver generator.
Supported modules and configurations
The driver concept for the 3RW44 soft starter includes operation of the soft starter:
As a DP slave directly on the DP master system
The connection is made by means of the GSD file.
As a DP slave following a Y link
DPV1 or DPV0 is possible depending on the version of the communication module used.
Introduction
1.4 Handling the driver generator
More information
Additional information regarding GSD files is available in the "SIRIUS 3RW44 Soft Starter"
System Manual > Chapter "Configuration with the GSD File".
1. The GSD files for the 3RW44 soft starter are available for download on the Internet. To
download, go to:
GSD files (http://support.automation.siemens.com)
2. Enter the following search term in the "Product Name or Part Number" field under
"Search Product Support Documents:
3RW44*BC* GSD
3. Under Downloads click the relevant entry, e.g., "PROFIBUS GSD files: Switchgears".
4. This displays another Internet page where you can download the GSD files.
Purpose of the driver generator
A signal-processing block is inserted in the CFC for each soft starter, and the connection to
the hardware is established using symbolic addressing. You assign this address in
HW Config of SIMATIC Manager. For detailed information on this, refer to the online help in
"Getting Started".
The "Generate Module Driver" option inserts the additionally required OB_DIAG1 and
SS_DIAG blocks and then connects and assigns the corresponding parameters.

3.4 SS_DIAG: Diagnostic block
3.4.1 Description

Block type and number: FB 561
Product group: 3RW44
Purpose of block
The SS_DIAG block performs the diagnostics of the 3RW44 soft starter:
It evaluates the acyclic events that are relevant for the 3RW44 soft starter:
Startup
DP station failure
Module error
Diagnostic interrupt
It evaluates the diagnostics of the upstream block, e.g.:
RACKF: Failure of the master system rack
SUBN1ERR, SUBN2ERR: Subnet error
It generates the associated quality codes.
It reads all diagnostic information of the soft starter
It transfers the diagnostic information to the SS_DIR and SS_MEAS blocks for display in
these blocks.

3.5.5 Operating modes
Operating mode Manual operation LOCAL/REMOTE
Soft Starter ES uses the introductory commands Automatic mode (remote control by the
CPU) and Manual mode (Manual operation LOCAL mode) to enable switching between
Manual operation LOCAL and Remote control operations. The process image input 0.0
indicates whether the starter is running in REMOTE or Manual operation LOCAL mode.
The specified operating mode is displayed at the QREMOTE output.
1 = Remote
0 = Manual operation LOCAL/Soft Starter ES
The device is controlled either locally or via Soft Starter ES. When Soft Starter ES is used,
operations are available, such as:
Motor CW
Motor CCW

Note
Slow speed must be enabled in order for the Motor CCW operation to be active.

Trip reset
Emergency start
Slow speed
Output 1
Output 2
Disable Quick Stop
The same information is monitored in the faceplate views.
In Manual operation LOCAL mode, the OUT_01 output of the function block monitors the
process image output (PIQ; byte 1 and byte 2). This ensures that the status of the control
output does not change while the CPU switches back to Remote mode.
In Manual operation LOCAL mode, parameterize the parameter sets with Soft Starter ES or
directly in the hardware of the soft starter. These parameters are synchronized with the
parameters of the function block. This ensures that the status of the parameterized values
does not change while the CPU switches back to Remote mode.
The monitoring function does not monitor in Manual operation LOCAL mode.
Soft starter blocks
Operating mode Auto/Manual
Requirement:
Use the Automatic mode command (remote control by the CPU) in Soft Starter ES. This
defines: Process image input 0.0 = 1.

If the feedback signal of the process image input changes, the monitoring function performs
another check to determine whether a discrepancy exists between the feedback signal and
the process image output. Once the specified monitoring time elapses, any discrepancy is
indicated with monitoring error QMON_ERR.
If the block is in Manual operation LOCAL mode, monitoring errors are not checked. The
process image outputs 0.0 and 0.1 monitor the feedback signal of the process image
input 0.1. This prevents a bump from occurring when the operating mode is changed from
Manual operation LOCAL to Auto or Manual mode.
The monitoring time is specified in seconds. If the monitoring time is less than the sampling
time, the monitoring time will be calibrated to the sampling time.

3.5.6.4 Trip reset
Purpose and trigger of trip reset
Trip reset acknowledges all errors currently pending in the starter that require
acknowledgement. An error can be acknowledged once it has been resolved or if it no longer
exists.
Trip reset can be triggered as follows:
Locally on the device
By actuating TRPRST_OP in the Standard View (command reset), if this view has been
enabled for the Trip reset function:
TRPRSTOP_EN = 1
By the TRPRST_LI link parameter. This is a signal with rising edge.
This sets the process image output DP bit 0.3.
Output parameter QTRPRSTOP indicates whether the Trip reset function is enabled for the
operator.
3.5.6.5 Slow speed
Purpose
This function allows you to temporarily operate an asynchronous motor in both directions of
rotation at a speed that is less than the rated speed.
The slow speed factor and the slow torque can be entered individually for both directions of
rotation in the Parameters View.
Various parameters are used in the different operating modes to set the slow speed.

Soft starter blocks
3.5.6.6 Emergency start
Purpose and trigger of emergency start
The emergency stop enables a restart in spite of an internal shutdown command.
The emergency start function can be triggered as follows:
By enabling emergency startEMRGST_OP in the Maintenance View, if this view is
enabled on the operator side for the emergency start function:
EMSTOP_EN = 1
By the EMRGST_LI link parameter, which is a signal with a rising edge
This sets the process image output DP bit 0.4.
Output parameter QEMSTOP indicates whether the emergency start function is enabled for
the operator.
Soft starter blocks
3.5.6.7 Lock
LOCK, LOCK_ON
The LOCK and LOCK_ON functions are only available in Remote operating mode. An active
lock input prevents switching and disables control commands. LOCK always overwrites
LOCK_ON.
LOCK = 1: LOCK is set to OFF
The control commands are set in order to stop the motor.
QMOT_CW = 0
QMOT_CCW = 0
LOCK_ON = 1: LOCK is set to ON
LOCK_DIR = 0: Motor CW
LOCK_DIR = 1: Motor CCW
The control commands are set in order to start the motor based on the values set in
LOCK_ON and LOCK_DIR:
QMOT_CW = 1
QMOT_CCW = 1
For the LOCK and LOCK_ON functions, the following operating commands and linkable
control commands are disabled:
MOTCW_OP
MOTCW_LI
MOTCCW_LI
The Standard View displays the "padlock" symbol to indicate whether the LOCK and
LOCK_ON functions are set.

Note
If slow speed has not been selected and LOCK_ON, LOCK_DIR command has been
initiated with CCW direction, an error number is generated as ERRORNUM. This status is
displayed in the Standard view in the faceplate as LOCK blinking in the status field.

3.5.6.16 Substitute value
SUB_VALUE
The operator parameterizes the substitute value. The SUB_VALUE parameter is 2 bytes
long. The data contained are written to the soft starter via data set 131. If the Response to
CPU/master stop event occurs, the soft starter is switched to the substitute value
parameterized in SUB_VALUE or it retains the last value.
This activation is parameterized at the START_OFF parameter:

START_OFF = 1: Switch substitute value
START_OFF = 0: Retain the last value
The SUB_VALUE parameter can only be written to the OUT_01 output of the block, if
START_OFF = 0:
While a warm restart is performed on the CPU
A rack error is detected

The "call RDREC()" function reads data set 94.
Data set 92:
The SS_DIAG block reads data set 92. The related measurement information is passed
to the SS_MEAS block.

EN_RD = TRUE : Read data set
RD_DATA = 1 : Operating parameter for reading measured values
L_RD_DATA = 1 : Linkable parameter for reading measured values. This is a signal
with rising edge.

Description
The Maintenance Station is a node in the network control. It displays the status of all devices
that are configured in the network. The Maintenance Station is primarily connected to the
Plant Asset Management System.
The Maintenance Station supports the following basic functions:
Collecting online information:
For evaluation of the system
For evaluation of the status of components
For evaluation of system errors
Decisions regarding service activities, such as
Customer service for system
Inspection
Maintenance
Eliminating faults
Maintenance request and status management
The "Generate Module Driver" function generates the module drivers when the CFC is
compiled.
Modules of the starter and power modules are added to the ET 200S rack. They are
equipped with the following driver blocks, for example:
RACK
OB_DIAG1
MOD_PAL0
MOD_PAX0
SS_DIAG
The type of driver block depends on the configuration.
These blocks function as an interface for writing the status of service activities to the
Maintenance Station.

CFC charts for 3RW44 soft starter
6
Description
The CFC charts are a ready-made reference for using blocks from the block library. They
reduce the engineering effort required to configure the various blocks that support the proper
functioning of the signal blocks.
The charts are available in the block library under:
"PCS7 SS Library V7.0 > Blocks+Templates\Templates > SoftStarter"
Generate instances of the charts stored in the block library for incorporation in the CFC
charts. These are stored in the "Templates" directory of the SIMATIC project S7_program.

Figure 6-1 Path of directory where the CFC charts are stored

Soft Starter CFC chart
The "Soft Starter" CFC chart contains one instance each of the following blocks:
SS_DIR
SS_MEAS
SS_STAT
Use this CFC chart for the following:
For operating
For measuring
For providing statistical information on the 3RW44 soft starter
The parameters have a textual interconnection that mentions the parameters to be
interconnected.
The following parameters must be assigned:
PS1_IRATE = Rated operational current of the starter block
OUT_01 = Logical address of the starter block

Figure 6-2 "Soft Starter" CFC chart

Note:
To facilitate the symbolic interconnection of the block inputs and outputs IN_01 and OUT_01
with the inputs and outputs of the device, symbols can be created in the symbol table.
You can find the symbol table in the HW Config Options > Symbol Table.
The inputs and outputs for the device are created here. Since the addresses are available in
BOOL, and the blocks are interconnected with WORD, the data type must be stored
accordingly in the symbol table.

In this example, the symbols In01 and Out01 are assigned for the addresses IW 3 and QW 3
in data type WORD.
The suitable symbol can now be selected when interconnecting.


Alternatively, editing can be carried out without the symbol table. Then a direct
interconnection is made with, for example, IW 3.
