The SIMATIC memory cards are as delivered or have been formatted and are not write-
protected.
•
The two CPUs of the S7-1500R/H redundant system have the same firmware version. You
can find more information in the section Firmware update (Page 334).
Procedure for commissioning SIMATIC S7‑1500R/H
To commission the S7‑1500R/H redundant system, we recommend the following procedure:
Table 11-1Procedure for commissioning SIMATIC S7‑1500R/H
Step Procedure Further information
1 Configure hardware in STEP7 Section Configuration (Page 196)
2 Create user program Section Programming the S7-1500R/H
(Page 215) and STEP7 online help
3 Insert required modules Section Installation (Page 153)
4 Wire the configuration (lines for supply voltage, PROFINET ring or line
topology, redundancy connections) and check it.
Section Wiring (Page 169)
5 Insert SIMATIC memory cards in the CPUs Section Removing/plugging in SIMATIC
memory cards (Page 247)
6 Switch on CPUs, optional load current supply and distributed I/O Section First power-on of the CPUs (Page
249)
7 CPU pairing Section CPU pairing (Page 250)
8 Assign CPUs redundancy IDs Section Redundancy IDs (Page 252)
9 Check LEDs You can find the meaning of the LEDs in
the module manuals.
10 Evaluate information on the CPU displays Section CPU display (Page 311)
11 Load hardware configuration and user program to the CPUs Section Downloading projects to the CPUs
(Page 256)
12 Test inputs and outputs The following functions are helpful: Mon
itoring and modifying tags, testing with
program status, forcing, controlling the
outputs in STOP. You can find more
information in the section Test and service
functions (Page 344).
Procedure for commissioning a SIMATIC Safety F-system
For commissioning, you need the CPUs 1518HF-4 PN. The procedure for commissioning the
F-system is not fundamentally different to commissioning an R/H-system. You use the Safety
Administration Editor to commission SIMATIC Safety and activate the safety mode. The Safety
Administration Editor is assigned to the top CPU in the STEP7 project tree.
You can find additional information on commissioning an F-system SIMATIC Safety and the
Safety Administration Editor in the programming and operating manual SIMATIC Safety –
Configuring and Programming
