Components of the Hardware and Network Editor

The Hardware and Network editor consists of a Device view, Network view and Topology view.
Device View
The device view is used for configuring devices.
• Hardware configuration of the individual devices
• Module parameter assignment
Network View
The network view is used for networking devices.
• Connection configuration
Topology View
The topology view is used to determine the physical structure of networks.
• Configuration of the interface assignment and the relationship between devices

2.2.1. Hardware and Network Editor: Device View
Device selection
Graphic area
Tabular area
Module parameter assignment

→ Properties in the Inspector window
Device View
The Device view is used for configuring and parameterizing devices and modules.
• Hardware configuration
• Device and module parameter assignment
The editor consists of 2 areas, a graphic (left/top) and a tabular (right/bottom). The splitting – left-
right or top-bottom – can be changed as required.
− Graphic area = module configuration
− Tabular area = Address parameterization of configured modules
"Properties" Tab in the Inspector Window

This tab is used to assign parameters to the module selected in the work area. Here, all the
properties or parameters of the selected module are displayed and can also be modified. In the
left-hand part of the Properties tab there is a navigation section in which the parameters are
arranged in groups.
"Hardware Catalog" Task Card

Module catalog for the configuration (module grouping) in the work area
Project Tree → "Local Modules"

In the Project tree, the modules along with their parameter assignments (for example, addresses)
are stored under the relevant device in the "Local modules" folder.

I/O communications
Network View
The Network view is used for configuring, parameterizing and networking devices.
• Configure and parameterize devices
• Configure connections
Just like the Device view, the Network view is also divided into a tabular and a graphic area.
In the graphic area, network-relevant devices, networks and connections are displayed. Here,
new devices can be inserted, connected with one another and the communication settings can be
made.
The tabular area contains various tables about the devices, connections and communication
settings.

2.2.3. Hardware and Network Editor: Topology View
Adopt position of devices

as in Network view
All network
components
(even Unmanaged)
Offline-Online comparison
Overview of the individual port interconnections
In the Topology View, you carry out the following tasks:

• Display Ethernet topology
− Display all PROFINET devices and passive Ethernet components of the project including
ports
− Display interconnections between the ports
− Display associated logical networks
− Display the diagnostic information of all ports
• Configure Ethernet topology
− Create, change and delete interconnections of ports
− Rename stations, devices, interfaces, ports
− Add PROFINET devices and passive Ethernet components to the project from the
Hardware catalog
• Determine differences between the offline and online topology and minimize them
− Carry out offline/online comparisons of Ethernet modules, Ethernet ports and Ethernet port
interconnections
− Adopt topology information existing online into the offline project
The Topology overview is also divided into a graphic and a tabular area.
The "Topology Overview" tab of the Tabular Area offers the following functions:
• Module overview
• Ports and port interconnections

2.2.3.1. Topology Comparison
Compare
Synchronize
Update
The "Topology Comparison" tab of the tabular area offers the following functions:
• Determine the differences between the offline and online topology,
• Minimize the differences between the offline and online topology,
- In the "Actual" column, you specify which Offline/Online differences are to be adopted. All
differences to be adopted are activated via the context menu (Apply > Apply all).
Then the selected differences can be adopted with the “Synchronize” button.

2.3. Adding a New Device (Controller)
Project view
Portal view
All modules must be configured and assigned

parameters.
Add New Device

It is possible to create a new device in the project using the Hardware and Network editor with the
help of the “Hardware catalog” task card or through the Project tree “Add new device”.
When a new device is created, a suitable rack is also created automatically. The selected device
is inserted into the first permitted slot in the rack.
Regardless of the method selected, the added device is visible in the Device view and in the
Network view of the Hardware and Network editor.

2.3.1. Adding an Unspecified CPU (Controller)
Programming can be started even though the

controller is not yet known
Select the CPU and all

modules from the
Hardware catalog
Read-in central I/O without

parameter assignment
Unspecified CPU
For the selection of the controller, you can also choose an “Unspecified CPU”. This is necessary
when the real CPU is not yet known but you would already like to start programming. Here, you
only need to specify the firmware of the CPU which is to be used later on. The actual hardware
can later be configured from the Hardware catalog or determined online.
Requirement:
The firmware of the CPU to be used later on is known.
Advantage:
The program can be written without knowing the hardware that is to be used later on.
The actual hardware can be configured and loaded later on.

2.3.2. Exporting or Importing CAx Data
Requirements:
Option package TIA Openness
Configuration with Symbols but

without Parameter Assignment
Requirement:
CAx data exists and the option package "Openness" is installed
Advantage:
An already created configuration can be adopted and used.
Note:
With the installation of V15, the option package is automatically selected.
In earlier versions, TIA Openness must be selected during installation.
In addition, the Windows user must be registered as a member of the group "Siemens TIA
Openness". You do this in the Computer Management under System Tools > Local Users and
Groups.

2.3.3. Uploading the Actual Configuration into the Project
Requirement: CPU requires at least one IP address
Hardware with parameter assignment(s) and

software program
An already existing configuration of an S7 station can be read-out by means of the function

"Upload device as new station".
This is then necessary when the appropriate offline station doesn’t exist on the PG. After reading
out the S7 station, the hardware as well as the program can be adjusted or modified, saved and
downloaded into the CPU.
Requirement:
An IP address has been assigned to an interface of the station or the station has already been
configured.
Station with Configuration:

If the station is already configured, then the entire station (central and distributed hardware with
parameter assignments, the entire program with comments and symbols) is available to the user
offline for further processing after the device is uploaded.
Station without Configuration:

If the CPU was only assigned an IP address without further configuration, only the actual
configuration of the central hardware is available to the user after the upload.

2.4. Configuration Overview for Analog and Digital I/O Modules
Default for all channels
Adopt default
or separate setting(s)
Most modules have a Configuration overview in the Settings with whose help you can see as well
as adjust the parameter assignments of all module channels.

2.5. Online Tools
with CPU Task Card
online → Status,
Diagnostics
offline → Configuration,
Parameterization
Online Tools
If it is possible to establish an online connection to the CPU, diagnostics and status information of
all modules can be called.
With CPUs that can be accessed online, the mode can also be controlled using the "Online tools"
task card and further status information (cycle time statistics and memory load) can be called.
Configuring and Parameterizing the Hardware

Almost all devices or components of an automation solution such as PLCs or touchpanels can be
assigned parameters. The parameter assignment of the devices and network settings required for
commissioning is handled using the Hardware and Network editor.
With this, for example, all components of an Ethernet network are assigned IP addresses via
which they communicate during later operation.
But even inside the automation device, address areas of the I/O modules must be specified and
the cycle monitoring time of the CPU must be set, for example.

2.5.1. Online Access: Accessible Devices
3
1. Online access or 1
Accessible devices
(Project or Portal view)
2. Select interface for the
search
3. Update the accessible
devices or
Start search
Accessible Devices in the Portal View

This function provides the option of fast access (for example for service purposes) even when
there is no offline project data for the target systems on the PG.
All accessible, programmable modules (CPUs, FMs CPs, HMI devices) are listed in the Portal
view, even if they are located in other subnets.
Accessing Online Functions → Button

Whenever there is an attempt to access a module online with the "Show" button and this is
located in a different subnet than the PG, a dialog opens asking whether an additional IP address
should be assigned to the PG.
Following confirmation, an additional IP address is assigned to the PG that is located in the same
subnet as the address of the CPU. All online functions can then be used.

2.5.2. Accessible Devices: Online & Diagnostics,

Task Card: Online Tools
Diagnostics buffer
CPU Operator Panel: Mode Selector Switch

The operating mode of the CPU can be changed.
• RUN → STOP:
If there is a change from "RUN" to "STOP", the CPU terminates the running user program.
• STOP → RUN:
If there is a change from "STOP" to "RUN", the CPU performs a restart.
Cycle Time:
"Shortest", "Current" and "Longest" are the cycle times since the last CPU restart.
With a Memory Reset (MRES), a CPU reset is carried out:

− All user data (even the retentive) is deleted (delete work memory)
(process images, memory bits, timers, counters, all program/data blocks)
− Retained are: IP addresses, the retentive part of the diagnostics buffer, operating hours
counter and time-of-day

Archives\TIA_Portal\TIA-PRO3.
5. Save your program.

2.7. Task Description: Commissioning the ET 200SP
Task Description
You are to commission the ET 200SP distributed I/O station since later on, the conveyor model
will be controlled via its input and output modules.
For this, the ET 200SP station must be configured, assigned parameters and networked with the
S7-1500 station in the offline project.
After compiling the new hardware configuration, it must be downloaded into the CPU which then,
in the function of an I/O-Controller, automatically undertakes the parameterization of the I/O-
Device ET 200SP.

2.7.1. Hardware Detection of Distributed I/Os
As of STEP 7 V15, it is possible to detect a real existing IO-Device and to adopt (add) it in your
project.
You detect the IO-Device in STEP 7 via the function "Hardware detection". You can adopt a
detected device in your project. STEP 7 inserts the IO-Device with all its modules and
submodules.
A module that is configured via the "Hardware detection" is parameterized as if you had inserted
it from the Catalog and is assigned neither to an IP subnet nor an IO-Controller.
The MAC address, an existing IP address and an existing PROFINET device name are adopted.

2.7.2. Overview of Addresses
You can view the currently used input and output addresses in the form of a table in the
"Overview of Addresses". You will find the Overview of Addresses in the Inspector window under
the "Properties" of the CPU.
Updating the Addresses (Column PIP):
"Automatic Update":
The address is assigned to the cyclic process image (PIP 0). The operating system automatically
updates this address in every program cycle.
"None":
The address is not assigned to any Process Image Partition (PIP). In the user program, you
access this address directly (direct I/O access, no process image).
"PIP x" (PIP 1 to PIP 31):

The operating system updates PIP x when executing the associated OB. If no OB is assigned to
this PIP, the operating system doesn’t update the PIP x. You can update the PIP x in the user
program using the instructions "UPDAT_PI" and "UPDAT_PO". If PIP x is assigned to an
isochronous interrupt OB (OB 61 to OB 64), the operating system doesn’t update the PIP x. You
can update the PIP x in the user program using the instructions "SYNC_PI" and "SYNC_PO".
"PIP OB Servo":
The Process Image Partition "PIP OB Servo" is permanently assigned to the OB "MC-Servo".
STEP 7 automatically generates this OB when you create a Technology Object in the area Motion
Control. When the OB is executed, the PIP OB Servo is isochronously updated. All drives and
sensors/encoders used by Motion Control are assigned to this Process Image Partition.

2.8. Exercise 8: ET 200SP: Reset to Factory Settings
Task
You are to delete all settings so far (IP address, subnet mask and PROFINET name) of the
Interface module of the ET 200SP station through a "Reset to factory settings".
What to Do:
1. Open the ‘Online access’ and select the Ethernet interface.
2. Update the display of the ‘Accessible devices’.
3. Open the ET 200SP (name may differ) and, with a double-click, activate the function "Online

4. Open the tab "Functions" > "Reset to factory settings".
5. Close the "Online & diagnostics" window.
6. Check the success of the reset to factory settings by once again doing an "Update accessible
devices".
The reset ET 200SP should now only be displayed as "Device" with MAC address.
Note:
With the help of I&M data (Identification and Maintenance data), modules can be uniquely
identified online.
Information data (I-data) is manufacturer information, such as, order number or serial number.
Maintenance data (M-data) is system-dependent information, such as, mounting location and
installation date.

2.8.1. Exercise 9: Reading-in the Configuration
Task
You are to read-in the configuration of the ET 200SP with the help of the function "Hardware
detection > IO devices".
What to Do

2.9. Task Description: Commissioning the WinCC RT Station
Task Description
You are to commission the WinCC RT station via which you can operate your "system". The data
block "InterfaceRT" serves as the interface between the controller and the WinCC RT station.

2.9.1. Setting the Access Points
Select Access Point

or delete/add
Example of ‘Interface Parameter Assignment Used’:

Access via specified network card
So that the WinCC RT can establish a connection to the controller, you must define an access
point and assign the correct interface to it.
For this, the access point must be determined in the WinCC RT ‘Connections’. The default
access point is "S7ONLINE". In case you use this access point for another software, for which the
interface could change, then it is recommended that you create your own access point. You can
add this via the "Set PG/PC Interface" tool.
You can select a real network card when the communication is to be established to a controller
connected via this network card (select the relevant network card). Furthermore, you can specify
that the communication takes place with a simulated CPU (S7-PLCSIM S7-1200/1500 or
S7-PLCSIM Advanced).

2.9.2. Exercise 17: Copying the WinCC RT Station from the Global Libraries
Task
You are to copy the prepared WinCC RT station from the global library "PRO3_Lib".
What to Do
1. In the Global libraries, open "PRO3_Lib" and there open the folder 02_Chapter2.
2. Using drag & drop, copy the library element "WinCC RT" into the "Area_1" folder of your
project (see picture).

2.9.3. Exercise 18: Creating an Ethernet Module
Task
You are to configure a communications module for the WINCC Runtime and assign it an IP
address.
What to Do
1. Open the Device view for the WinCC RT.
2. As proxy for the Ethernet interface, configure an IE general.
3. Change the IP address as shown in the picture.

2.9.4. Exercise 19: Setting Up an HMI Connection between the WinCC RT Station
and the S7-1500
Configuring HMI Connections

In configuring HMI connection(s), the communications partners are defined with which the HMI
device will later exchange data in the process control phase. The HMI device can also be
connected to or exchange data with several controllers.
There can also be controllers in the same network with which the HMI device does not exchange
data. Then, the HMI device is "networked" with these controllers but it is not "connected".
Task
You are to network the WinCC RT Station with the Ethernet network and setup an HMI
connection to the S7-1500.
What to Do
1. Switch to the "Network view" and there select "HMI connection" (see picture).
2. Position the mouse pointer on the small green square of the HMI device and, while keeping
the left mouse button pressed down, drag a connection to the CPU.
The connection is created and is given a default name.
3. In the Graphic Overview in the "Connections" tab, check whether the HMI connection was
correctly created.
4. If necessary, change the name of the connection to "HMI_Connection" (see picture), since
this is the name that is used for the tag declaration in the WinCC RT program.

2.9.5. Exercise 20: Checking the HMI Tags Connections
Task
You are to check the connections of the HMI tags to the corresponding PLC tags and - if
necessary - correct them.
What to Do
1. Open the HMI tags "Default tag table" of the WinCC RT station.
2. Check whether all HMI tags are correctly connected to a PLC tag.
3. Compile the entire HMI project.

2.9.6. Exercise 21: Setting the Interface of an Access Point
Select Access Point

or delete/add
Task
You are to change the name of the access point and assign the relevant interface to it.
What to Do
1. Open the Connections editor of the HIM Runtime.
2. Select (highlight) the created connection "HMI_Connection".
In the selection field ‘Parameter’, the connection partners are schematically presented and
the access point used is displayed.
3. Change the name of the access point to "TIA-PRO3".
5. Via the Windows Control Panel open the function "Set PG/PC Interface".
6. Under Access Path > Access Point of the Application, create a new access point with the
name "TIA-PRO3".
7. As a description, specify which applications use this access point.
8. As ‘Interface Parameter Assignment Used’, specify the Ethernet interface.
9. Close the function "Set PG/PC Interface".

2.9.7. Exercise 22: Testing the Connection to the WinCC RT Station
Testing the Connection to the WinCC RT Station

Your "system" can now be operated via the WinCC RT station. Before the actual function test on
the system, you are to check whether the communication between the WinCC RT station and the
S7-1500 works.
What to Do
1. Select the station "WinCC RT".
2. Start the WinCC RT with the help of the icon "Start Runtime on the PC" (see picture).
3. Open the "InterfaceRT" data block which serves as the interface between the WinCC RT
station and the S7-1500.
4. In the Runtime, start the application via the relevant button.
5. Via the lower selection fields, switch to the application "Conveyor".
6. Activate the buttons of the running WinCC RT and observe whether the corresponding bits
are set and reset in the data block.

2.9.8. Exercise 23: Carrying Out a Function Test

"conveyorIn".S_bay1 "conveyorIn".S_bay2 "conveyorIn".S_bay3 "conveyorIn". S_lightBarrier
Function of the "System"

The conveyor model represents a processing line which consists of the Processing Stations 1 to
3, a Pickup Station and a transport belt.
Plant ON
In the operating status "ON" (Automatic), a blank placed on the conveyor at the Pickup station is
transported to the individual stations after the button at the Pickup station is pressed. The
transport belt can be restarted with the help of the button at the station where the blank is. The
sequence is always 3-2-1 (in other words from right to left). From Station 1 (left station), the
finished blank is transported back to the Pickup Station.
If a transport sequence between two stations takes longer than 6 seconds, the belt is stopped.
This is then displayed in the Runtime with the help of a flashing plain text.
Plant OFF
In the operating status "OFF" (Manual mode), the transport belt can be moved to the right and to
the left in Jog mode with the help of the buttons.
Operating Mode Change

The operating status of the system can be selected via the corresponding buttons of the
WinCC RT and is displayed as text in the "Conveyor" screen of the WinCC RT as well as on the
operator panel of the S7-1500 case with the indicator light "P_operation" (Q0.1).

2.10. Additional Information

You will find an overview of the reserved, available connection resources of the S7-1500
automation system in the Properties of the CPU in the Inspector window of the Hardware and
Network editor.
Offline View
In the Offline view (picture), the available and the configured resources of the station and the
individual modules (CPUs, CPs und CMs) are displayed. If the sum of the maximum resources of
the modules exceeds the station limit (depends on the CPU), this is indicated with a warning
triangle.
Online View
When you are connected to the CPU online, you can display how many resources are currently
being used in the Inspector window > "Diagnostics" in the "Connection information" tab.
