Configuring and Parameterizing the Hardware


IC

-1

Almost all devices or components of an automation solution such as PLCs or touchpanels can be
S7
AT

assigned parameters. The parameter assignment of the devices and network settings required for
commissioning is handled using the Hardware and Network Editor.
M

,
ng

With this, for example, all components of an Ethernet network are assigned IP addresses via
SI

which they communicate during later operation.


i
in

But even inside the automation device, address areas of the I/O modules must be specified and
ra

the cycle monitoring time of the CPU must be set, for example.

Internet Protocol

28
Po

The Internet Protocol (IP) is the basis for all TCP/IP networks. It creates the so-called datagrams
(data packets specially tailored to the Internet protocol) and handles their transport within the
A

local subnet or their "routing" (forwarding) to other subnets.

TI

50

IP Addresses
IC

-1

IP addresses are not assigned to a specific computer, but rather to the network interfaces of the
S7
AT

computer. A computer with several network connections (for example routers) must therefore be
assigned an IP address for each connection.
M

,
ng

IP addresses consist of 4 bytes. With the dot notation, each byte of the IP address is expressed
SI

by a decimal number between 0 and 255. The four decimal numbers are separated by dots
i
in

(see picture).
ra

MAC Address
et

Every Ethernet interface is assigned a fixed address by the manufacturer that is unique
R

worldwide. This address is referred to as the hardware or MAC address (Media Access Control).
m

It is stored on the network card and uniquely identifies the Ethernet interface in a local network.
te

Cooperation among the manufacturers ensures that the address is unique worldwide.
ys

Subnet Mask
lS

The subnet mask specifies which IP addresses in the local network can be accessed. It separates
rta

the IP address into the network and device part.


Only IP addresses whose network part is the same can be accessed.
Po

e.g.: Subnet mask = 255.255.255.0 and IP address = 192.168.111.10


accessible IP addresses: 192.168.111.1 to 192.168.111.254

S7
AT

Unlike the "memory reset", all the memory areas of the CPU (work, load and retentive
memory, diagnostics buffer and time) are deleted. Optionally (see dialog in the picture), the

IP address can also be deleted so that the CPU then only has a MAC address (Media Access

Format Memory Card


The CPU memory card can also be deleted in the CPU via this online function. After that, the
ra

CPU only has its IP address. All other data (including the device configuration) is deleted.

The card cannot be deleted in the card reader via the Project tree. Device configuration and
R

blocks have a gray background, that is, are write-protected (only status information or open
with a double-click).

Assign Name
In PROFINET, each device must be assigned a unique device name that is stored retentively
ys

on the device. The device name identifies a distributed I/O module (PROFINET IO) and
lS

allows module replacement without a PG/PC.

Firmware Update
Here, the firmware version of the device and the modules can be updated. Under

Task Description:

In the migration of the given STEP 7 V5.x project with S7-300, a TIA Portal V15 project has

28
Po

resulted, in which you - by means of CPU migration - have replaced the S7-300 with an S7-1500.
In the process, the S7-300 program was automatically adopted in the S7-1500.
A

0
The migrated S7 program - together with the S7-1500 and the relevant I/O modules - is to be
TI

50

commissioned in this chapter.


IC

The S7 program can be executed without changes on the S7-1500 and fulfills the following
-1

functions:
S7
AT

• Operation switch on/off → Display at "P_Operation"


M

via switch "S_OperationON" and "S_OperationOFF" (off switch is an NC contact)


,
ng
SI

• Operation switched off ("P_Operation" = off)


i

Now, the conveyor motor can be jogged to the right and to the left via the simulator switch
in

"S_Right" and "S_Left".


ra

• Operation switched on ("P_Operation" = on)


et

Now, parts are transported on the conveyor model from Bay 1 or 2 to the right into the light
R

barrier.
→ place a part at "B_Bay1" or "B_Bay2"
m

→ start the transportation with "S_Bay1" or "S_Bay2"


te
ys

Transport monitoring:
lS

− If a transport sequence takes longer than 6 seconds, the conveyor motor is automatically
switched off and the fault is indicated on the simulator at "P_Fault". Only after
rta

acknowledging the fault at the simulator switch "S_Acknowledge" can a new transport
sequence be started.

Notes:
et

1. The 1500 CPU offers the possibility of using up to 31 process image partitions. "PIP 1" to
R

"PIP 31" process image partitions can be assigned to certain Organization Blocks. After the
OB is started, the assigned process image partition for the inputs is updated by the system.

At the end of the OB, the outputs of the assigned process image partition are written to the
te

I/O outputs by the system. The process image partitions are excluded from the automatic
ys

update.
lS

2. A process image partition can be updated in the user program with special instructions. For
this, there are the functions "UPDAT_PI" for the process image partition of inputs and
rta

"UPDAT_PO" for the process image partition of outputs.

Modules that are intended to be assigned to a device, for example as the result of a copy action,

Po

automatically to the "area for modules not plugged in".

Modules are added to the area for modules not plugged in under the following conditions:

TI

50

• When a module is copied or moved within the Project tree.


IC

• When a module is dragged to a device in the Network view, even though there is no
S7

compatible slot free on its rack.

• In the Device view, when a module is directly moved into the area from the rack or Hardware

catalog.

For updating the CPU or the Display, an empty card is necessary in order to conclude
