4.9 WinCC connection to FM458-1 DP channel
(SIMATIC S7 Protocol Suite.CHN)
The chapter describes the procedure when configuring the access using
WinCC to process variables (block connections) of the SIMATIC S7-400
FM458-1 DP. The various configuring and coupling options are shown in
the following diagram.
The coupling via TCP/IP using the FB property "OCM" functions
(Operator Control and Monitoring) when creating an address book - is
completely described.
The special features of the configuration version with function block
"S7DB_P" that supersedes to create an address book, is
described in the following chapter.
An explanation is then given on how to use the MPI and PROFIBUS DP
coupling types. (When using the PROFIBUS DP coupling for visualization
purposes, it should however be taken into account that this coupling -
generally used as fast drive coupling - is possibly slowed down by the
HMI signals.)
The use of the D7-SYS-OS engineering tool (WinCC mapper) is then
explained.
