In the project navigator, double-click Insert single drive unit.
This enables you to insert a standalone drive (e.g. SINAMICS S120). The STARTER
functionality in SCOUT is responsible for commissioning the drive concerned.
Inserting elements within a SIMOTION device
To insert technology objects, source files, or watch tables:
1. Open the SIMOTION device under which the element is to be created.
2. Select the relevant folder (e.g. AXES, PROGRAMS).
3. Select the desired function, e.g.:
– Insert > Technology object > ... menu or
– Insert > Program > ... menu or
– Insert > Watch table menu
Displaying the station level of a SIMOTION device
This function provides a better transparency in large SIMOTION SCOUT projects. A project
with several SIMOTION devices and a large number of drives can be displayed in a structure.
The assignment in station levels, as known from SIMATIC STEP 7, is used.
