SINUMERIK 840Di Manual (HBI) – 06.03 Edition
The NC installed in the 840Di Rack is called S7 FM NCU. To allow communica-
tion between NC and PLC, the following setting are required:
S
MPI address of the NC: PLC a 1
S
Input address and output address: 256
S
Length of data: 2 (preset, no input possible).
To this aim, open the Properties dialog by double-clicking on the NC in 840Di
Rack.
Dialog: Properties – S7 FM-NCU
Tab: General
Group: Backplane connection
MPI address: 3 (see Note)
Tab: Addresses
Group: Inputs
Start: 256
Length: 2
Group: Outputs
Start: 256
Length: 2
OK
Notice
The MPI address of NC and PLC are tightly connected one to another.
MPI addr. of NC = (MPI addr. of PLC) + 1
Notice
The input/output address of the NC must be set to 256.
In the case of values other than 256, auxiliary functions provided from the PLC
will no longer be acknowledged to the NC and the parts program execution is
thus no longer continued.
