PROFINET
The use of a Communication Board Ethernet (CBE30) enables SIMOTION D4x5 to
communicate with the following components via PROFINET:
Table 1-5 Components on the PROFINET
Component Function
Programming device (PG/PC) ... communicates with the "SIMOTION SCOUT", STEP 7, and HMI
(Human Machine Interface) engineering systems (ES).
Master computer ... communicates with other devices via UDP, TCP/IP.
SIMATIC HMI device ... is used for operator control and monitoring functions. This is not
an essential requirement for the operation of a SIMOTION D4x5.
SIMATIC ET 200S Finely modular I/O system for control cabinet installation including
motor starters, safety technology, and individual grouping of the
load groups.
SIMATIC ET 200pro Modular I/O system with IP65/66/67 degree of protection for
cabinet-free use close to the machine; with new features such as
smaller frame size, integrated PROFIsafe safety technology,
PROFINET connection, and hot swapping of modules.
Drive units with PROFINET
interface
... convert speed setpoints into signals for controlling the motor
and supply the power required to operate the motors.
Other controllers (e.g.
SIMOTION or SIMATIC)
Gateways
• IE/AS-Interface link PN IO for the PROFINET IO gateway to
AS-Interface
• PN/PN coupler for connecting two PROFINET IO networks
• IE/PB link PN IO for the PROFINET IO gateway to
PROFIBUS DP
DRIVE-CLiQ
The DRIVE-CLiQ interfaces permit a fast connection to the SINAMICS drive components.
DRIVE-CLiQ offers the following advantages within the DRIVE-CLiQ topology rules:
• Independent expansion of components possible
• Automatic detection of components by the control unit
• Standardized interfaces to all components
• Uniform diagnostics down to the components
• Complete service down to the components
• Simple mechanical handling
