4.5.1 Configuration Notes for the Coupling Modules 6DS1333, 6DS1318
Among the module operating manuals and the driver documentation for
TM_S5KS/TM_S5KE, the notes described below are relevant for confi-gu-
ring the coupling modules.
A migration from AS230 / AS235 / AS488/TM to PCS 7/TM-EA is possible,
if the links within the system configuration and its structure meets the follo-
wing standard configuration:
Standard configuration, quantified project scope:
– Settings relating to the number of coupling modules:
Number of
coupling mod.
Number of
transm.
channels / mod
Number receive
channels / mod.
TM_S5KS/
S5KE
driver cycles
DB1cycle
2 2 1 1 s 16 (500 ms)
4 2 0 1 s 16 (500 ms)
4 2 1 2 s 32 (1 s)
– Up to 6 TM_S5KS driver per channel KNR can send to a single mo-
dule. The partner device transmits no more than 12 telegrams per
TM_S5KE cycle.
– With acyclic stress by process alarms, and by transmission times of
I/O modules behind coupling modules 6DS1322-8AA, the number of
coupling modules which can be used in the same cycle, may be redu-
ced (recommendation: slot for the coupling module immediately in the
migration rack).
If a system departs from this standard scope (e.g. a larger number of coupling
modules or more driver blocks), such couplings often can be replaceble ne-
vertheless. But sometimes changing the configuration may be necessary (e.g.
parameter adjustment, extension of TM_S5KE cycle).
Common settings:
– All TM_S5KS of a module have to be installed in the same cycle.
– The DB1 cycle for these coupling modules has always to be set faster
than the assigned TM_S5KE block.
Operating mode, settings for 6DS1333-8AB:
– The 6DS1333-8AB interface module works with high priority, on the
partner side ’low priority’ has to be set; 1 stop bit, even parity, same
baudrate. ED telegrams can be initiated only by the AS.
– For reading data from a partner device (with FETCH), and for monito-
ring a TM_S5KE has to be configured in the AS coupled with SIMA-
TIC S5/S7. Only one TM_S5KE is used for each module, which has
been installed in the cycle list only once.
