4.4.2 Create axis
Introduction
This step describes the procedure for creating an axis in S7T Config. Because the
SIMODRIVE 611U double-axis module is used in the hardware configuration, two axes must
be created and the procedure described here performed twice.
Note
Using a double-axis module
If a double-axis module is used, either both axes must be set up as TO, or both axes must
be addressed by the user program via the PZD interface. Mixed operation is not possible.
To deactivate: Both TOs of a double-axis module must be deactivated at the same time. It is
not possible to deactivate just the TO of one of the axes.
Procedure
ā A double-click on the Technology objects entry in the Technology folder in the created
SIMATIC 300 station starts the Technology Object Management application in the
SIMATIC Manager.
Figure 4-13 Technology objects in the SIMATIC Manager
The Technology Object Management application opens. If no technology objects have
been configured, then S7T Config is automatically started. Otherwise start S7T Config by
selecting the Options > Configure technologymenu command in the Technology Object
Management.
