Leuze BPS 348i - Device Startup and SIMATIC S7 Integration

Starting up the device – Basic configuration
Leuze electronic GmbH + Co. KG BPS 348i 58
8.2 Starting the device
To start the BPS:
Ä Connect the supply voltage. The BPS starts up and, for devices with a display, the device status is dis-
played.
Ä Configure the BPS, e.g., for a Siemens SIMATIC-S7 control.
Ä Assign the BPS its individual device name and name the device.
Starting up the device
NOTICE
The default value of the input data bits after switching on the device corresponds to the speci-
fied initial value (generally ZERO).
NOTICE
For output data with status IOPS = Bad, the downstream functions are switched to a safe state.
For example, an activated device or an output is deactivated. This is the case, for example, if
the control is switched to the STOP mode.
In the event of a connection interruption, the device behaves in the same way.
The outputs are deactivated during device start-up.
8.3 Configuring for the Siemens SIMATIC-S7 control
The functionality of the BPS is defined via parameter sets which are organized in modules. The modules
are part of the GSDML file (Generic Station Description Markup Language), which is supplied as an integral
part of the device.
By using a user-specific project tool, such as, e.g., Simatic Manager for the Siemens programmable logic
control, the required modules are integrated into a project during commissioning and its settings and pa-
rameters are adjusted accordingly. These modules are provided by the GSDML file.
NOTICE
Observe SIMATIC Manager version!
Ä For the Siemens SIMATIC-S7 control, you need at least SIMATIC Manager version 5.4 +
service pack5 (V5.4+SP5).
The following steps are necessary for commissioning:
• Preparation of the control system (S7 PLC)
• Installation of the GSDML file
• Hardware configuration of the S7 PLC
• Transmission of the PROFINET configuration to the IOController (S7 PLC)
• Device naming
• Check device name
Proceed as follows:
Ä To prepare the control (S7 PLC):
Assign an IP address to the IO controller (S7 PLC)
Prepare the control system for consistent data transmission.
Ä Install the GSDML file for the subsequent configuration of the BPS.
