S7-1500
8 Getting Started, 05/2014, A5E03981761-AC
Design of the hardware configuration
The hardware configuration consists of the following devices:
● The CPU 1511-1 PN with an S7-1500 load current supply, a digital input module and a
digital output module.
● HMI Panel TP1200 Comfort that can also be simulated with the TIA Portal.
● Distributed ET 200MP I/O system with IM 155-5 PN ST interface module and digital input
and digital output modules.
● Distributed ET 200SP I/O system with IM 155-6 PN ST interface module, digital input
modules, digital output modules and server module.
Sample project
Sample project for the application
To configure the color mixing system with the TIA Portal, create the sample project
"Color_Filling_Station".
The following project components already exist for the sample project:
● The program blocks of the CPU
● The visualization of the HMI on a Comfort Panel
In this section, we will explain the relationships between the individual project components of
the sample project.
You will carry out the necessary configuration steps yourself at a later point in time.
