8.3 Commissioning procedure
Requirements
The following requirements must be met:
● CPU that is in the "Factory settings" state or has been reset to Factory settings
(Page 125)
● SIMATIC memory car
d that is in the delivered condition and formatted
Commissioning procedure
For the first commissioning of an S7-1500 automation system, we recommend the following
procedure:
Action Remark
Configure hardware in STEP 7 and
perform power balance calculation (see
also "Special considerations: CPU as bus
device")
See the Power balance calculation (Page 35) section.
Create user program See the STEP 7 online help
Insertion of all required modules See the Installation (Page 39) section
Wiring of the assembly (power supply
modules, front connectors, ...)
See the Wiring (Page 53) section
Insertion of the SIMATIC memory card
into the CPU
See the section, Insertion/removal of the SIMATIC memory card (Page 97)
First power-on Switch on the CPU and power supply module. See the First power-on
(Page 98) section
LED check Notes on the meaning of the LEDs can be found in the manuals of the
modules, and in the System Diagnostics Function Manual
(http://support.automation.siemens.com/WW/view/en/59192926
).
Evaluate information on the CPU's display See the section, Display of the CPU (Page 141)
Configure hardware in STEP 7 and
upload to the CPU
See the "Online and diagnostics" functions in the TIA Portal
Test the inputs and outputs The following functions are helpful: Monitoring and controlling tags, testing with
program status, forcing, controlling the outputs in STOP mode. See the Test
functions and f
ault resolution (Page 129) section
