Introduction 1
1.1 Security information
Siemens provides products and solutions with industrial security functions that support the
secure operation of plants, systems, machines and networks.
In order to protect plants, systems, machines and networks against cyber threats, it is
necessary to implement – and continuously maintain – a holistic, state-of-the-art industrial
security concept. Siemens’ products and solutions constitute one element of such a concept.
Customers are responsible for preventing unauthorized access to their plants, systems,
machines and networks. Such systems, machines and components should only be
connected to an enterprise network or the internet if and to the extent such a connection is
necessary and only when appropriate security measures (e.g. firewalls and/or network
segmentation) are in place.
For additional information on industrial security measures that may be implemented, please
visit
https://www.siemens.com/industrialsecurity.
Siemens’ products and solutions undergo continuous development to make them more
secure. Siemens strongly recommends that product updates are applied as soon as they are
available and that the latest product versions are used. Use of product versions that are no
longer supported, and failure to apply the latest updates may increase customer’s exposure
to cyber threats.
To stay informed about product updates, subscribe to the Siemens Industrial Security RSS
Feed under
https://www.siemens.com/industrialsecurity.
1.2 Product specific security information

Introduction
1.6 Handling the driver generator
1.6 Handling the driver generator

The "Generate Module Drivers" 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 Softstarter OM, GSD file or by an EDD object.
● As a DP slave following a Y link
DPV1 or DPV0 is possible depending on the version of the communication module used.
The connection has to made by means of the GSD file.
More information
Additional information regarding GSD files is available in the "SIRIUS 3RW44 Soft Starter"
System Manual > Chapter "Configuration with the GSD File".
GSD, GSDML & EDD files for Soft Starter can be found in the internet. Please follow this
link: http://support.industry.siemens.com and search for
● Soft Starter GSD or
● Soft Starter EDD
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 can retrieve this address from
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.

3.3 Quality codes

The process values of the function blocks are generated and transferred along with a signal
status as a structured variable. This contains a statement about the signal quality. The
function blocks determine the appropriate signal status for their process outputs depending
on the signal status of the process inputs. The signal status is formed from the input
parameters according to the priority table below (highest priority is 0). This group status is
displayed in the status bar of the faceplate and of the block icon. The signal status is
displayed for each individual parameter in the faceplate next to the process values.

● LADDR
● DADDR
● RACK_NO
● SLOT_NO
● SUBN1ID
● SUBN_TYP
3.4.5 Diagnostic functions
General
This block executes the following diagnostic functions:
● Acyclic events:
– Rack failure
– QMODF: Module error
– QERR: Priority class error - Malfunction when loading the organization blocks (OB)
● Slave diagnostics:
– QBUSFLT: Failure of a PROFIBUS DP station
● OB_DIAG1: Diagnostics of upstream block

Soft starter blocks
3.4.5.1 Diagnostics of acyclic events
QRACK: Rack failure

The upstream OB_DIAG1 block detects the failure of the DP master or DP slave and
evaluates it by means of the following outputs:
● RACKF
● SUB1ERR
● SUB2ERR
Interrupt OB 86 detects the failure of the rack.

When an error occurs, OMODE=16#40xxxxxx is assigned for the value of the OMODE
output.
If the "Rack failure" error QRACKF=1 occurs, the connection between the PROFIBUS and
the device is canceled. This is indicated as follows: QBUSFLT=1.

Soft starter blocks
QMODF: Module error

Module error is validated following the restart of PLC or if ACC_ID parameter is set to TRUE.
The system status list (SSL) ID xC91 is read out for this purpose. Temporary errors are
detected by reading the system status. These are listed in the following table. The
RDSYSST (SFC51) system function indicates this error as module error QMODF.
Table 3- 8 Temporary module errors
Error number Description

8085 No information currently available due to a problem in the system, e.g.,
lack of operating resources.
80A2 Temporary error in PROFIBUS DP protocol, layer 2

3.5.5 Operating modes
Operating mode LOCAL/REMOTE

Enabling switching between LOCAL and Remote control operations is not possible using the
library. Other software tools (Soft Starter ES, PDM, ...) have to be used for it. The process
image input 0.0 indicates whether the starter is running in REMOTE or 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 other software tools (Soft Starter ES, PDM, ...).
When in the local mode, the following 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.
Switch function block to Auto mode: Set LIOP_SEL = 1 and AUT_L =1 Interlinked parameters
Switch faceplate (OS) to Auto mode: Set LIOP_SEL = 0 and AUT_ON_OP = 1 Operating parameters
Switch function block to Manual mode: Set LIOP_SEL = 1 and AUT_L =0 Interlinked parameters

3.5.6.3 Monitoring
QMON_ERR, TIME_MON
This function monitors the consistency between the control command and the feedback
signal of the parameter within the specified TIME_MON monitoring time. Each discrepancy is
indicated with monitoring error QMON_ERR.

monitoring error QMON_ERR. …
1) PIQ = Process image output

2) PII = Process image input, feedback parameters
3) For Motor CCW, the slow speed function must be enabled:
SLSPD_LI = 1 in Auto mode and PIQ 0.6 = 1
The MONITOR parameter indicates whether the monitoring function is enabled or disabled:
MONITOR = 1 enables the monitoring function.
MONITOR = 0 disables the monitoring function.
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 the 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 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.

Soft starter blocks
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 start 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.
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

Soft starter blocks
For the LOCK and LOCK_ON functions, the following operating commands and linkable
control commands are disabled:

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
● A module error is detected

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 V8.0 SP4 > 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

CFC charts for 3RW44 soft starter
The parameters have a textual interconnection that mentions the parameters to be

interconnected.
The following parameters must be assigned:
● IN_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
BYTE, 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 2 and QW 2
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 2.

the project.
2) Composed of the block type, e.g., FB for function block and the number.
3) Memory requirement of program code, once per block type.
4) Memory requirement for an instance data block.
5) The memory required for the local data when the block is called in an execution level. This is limited according to the
specific CPU. If this amount is exceeded, you must check the setting in the CPU configuration and redistribute it among
the organization blocks based on the actual requirement.
6) The relevant driver block uses these blocks. They are now located in the user program They are stored in the same
library.
