4.1 Creating the project configuration
Note
• If you only want to download and start up the sample program, follow the
instructions in chapter 5.
• The procedure described in the following table is one option for
configuring a SIMATIC S7-1500 and parameterizing a SINAMICS
G120C PN for data exchange between a SIMATIC controller and a
SINAMICS drive. TIA Portal offers several possible solutions that differ
to a greater or lesser degree from the procedure shown here.
The tables below describe what you have to do if you do not use the sample code
and want to configure the SIMATIC S7-1500 CPU, the SINAMICS G120 and the
KTP600 HMI yourself.
Programming the SIMATIC S7-1500 and configuring the operator panel are not the
subject of this chapter.
It is assumed that the software, see Table 2-4, is installed on your PG/PC.
