2 General Information on
SIMATIC PDM
Never change the parameter settings without a full knowledge of
the operating instructions contained in this User’s Manual, as well
as a full knowledge of the behavior of the connected controller and
the possible influence on the operating process to be controlled.
SIMATIC PDM is a software package for project planning, parame-
ter setting, start-up and maintenance of devices (e.g. sensors such
as the Uni-Probe LB 491) and for project planning of networks.
SIMATIC PDM contains simple process monitoring of process val-
ues, alarms and status information of a device.
In connection with the Uni-Probe Device Description (Uni-Probe
DD) by Berthold Technologies GmbH & Co. KG, the Uni-Probe
LB 491 Density Meter can easily be configured, parameterized, cal-
ibrated and controlled via SIMATIC PDM.
Depending on which software version of SIMATIC PDM you have,
the Uni-Probe DD is already integrated in the software, or has to be
installed new (see Volume 5, section 3.3).
SIMATIC PDM works within a SIMATIC Manager STEP 7 environ-
ment.
This User’s Manual describes all functions of the SIMATIC PDM soft-
ware you need to work with the Density Meter Uni-Probe LB 491.
For further Information on the SIMATIC Manager Step 7 and
SIMATIC PDM please refer to the respective SIEMENS documenta-
tion.
