DP slave SIMODRIVE drives
The parameterization of the configuration of the SIMODRIVE drives listed here is done as
follows with the help of SIMODRIVE 611 universal.
●
SIMODRIVE 611 universal or universal E
●
SIMODRIVE POSMO CD/CA
●
SIMODRIVE POSMO SI
8.10.1
SlaveOM
The drives are assigned parameters using the SlaveOM for SINUMERIK 840Di sl (for
installation of the SlaveOM, refer to Subsection "General" (Page 229): DriveOM/SlaveOM).
Note
To simplify parameterization of the isochronous communication on the PROFIBUS DP, you
must first insert all the DP slaves (drives, ADI4, I/O modules, etc.) you require into the
configuration before parameterization of the DP drives, before you set the times for
isochronous DP communication.
8.10.2
Inserting the DP slave
To insert an 611U DP slave in the configuration, open the hardware catalog using the View >
Catalog menu command.
The DP slave 611U is to be found at:
●
Profile: Standard
PROFIBUS-DP > SIMODRIVE > SIMODRIVE 611 universal, PROFIBUS DP1
Select DP slave 611U by clicking it with the left mouse button and drag it to the DP master
system in the Station window holding down the mouse button.
The DP master system is displayed in the station window with the following symbol:
When you release the left mouse button, the DP slave 611U is inserted into the configuration.
Note
Make sure that the cursor, which appears as a crossed-out circle when dragging the DP
slave, is positioned exactly on the DP master system so that the DP slave is inserted into the
configuration.
