3UF50 compatibility mode
SIMOCODE pro
9-2 GWA 4NEB 631 6050-22 DS 03
Description
The 3UF50 compatibility mode is applied when a SIMOCODE-DP device is
to be replaced by a SIMOCODE pro device without changing the
configuration.
In the 3UF50 compatibility mode you can operate a SIMOCODE pro V basic
unit 2 with a 3UF50 configuration.
In this case, the communication using SIMOCODE pro behaves the same as
communication using SIMOCODE-DP from the point of view of the PLC
(class 1 master).
Cyclic communication (basic types 1-3), diagnostics and the DPV1 data
records (DR 130, DR 131, DR 133) of SIMOCODE DP are supported.
Win SIMOCODE DP converter
In order for the technical functions (parameterization) of SIMOCODE DP to
be integrated into the technical functions of SIMOCODE pro V, the device
parameters must be adjusted accordingly. The "Win SIMOCODE-DP
Converter" software supports you in this process. This software enables you
to convert the parameter files (smc files) created with Win SIMOCODE-DP
into SIMOCODE ES parameter files (sdp files).
Safety guidelines
Notice
Communication with a DP master (class 2 master), e.g. with the Win
SIMOCODE-DP Professional software via PROFIBUS DP, is not covered by
the 3UF50 compatibility mode.
Notice
In the 3UF50 compatibility mode, the start-up parameter block is always set,
i.e. the transmission of the device parameters
created using SIMOCODE-DP-GSD or the SIMOCODE-DP object manager
cannot be integrated into SIMOCODE pro V.
Notice
The 3UF50 compatibility mode supports SIMOCODE-DP projects in which
SIMCODE-DP is integrated via GSD SIEM8031.gs?, SIEM8069.gs? or via the
SIMOCODE-DP object manager (OM).
