2.7.4 Consistency checks
To ensure that applicable restrictions are not violated, SCOUT has the following built-in
consistency checks:
● At any time, from the SCOUT main menu, "Check consistency" can be selected from the
"Project" drop-down menu. (For more information, refer to the SCOUT online help.) This
allows you to verify that the programmed configuration is consistent with the defined
hardware configuration.
● Before downloading the hardware configuration, "Consistency Check" can be selected
from the HW Config "Station" menu. (For more information, refer to the SCOUT online
help.) This allows you to verify the integrity of the defined hardware configuration for such
things as PROFIBUS settings, timing settings, SINAMICS parameters, etc.
● Before saving a project in SCOUT, you can check the consistency of the network by
selecting the "Check consistency" option in the "Network" menu of NetPro. (For more
information, refer to the SCOUT online help.) This allows you to verify the integrity of the
network and ensure that such things as redundant network addresses, unconnected
nodes, subnets that have only one node, inconsistent connections, etc., are not present.
● When the SIMOTION Motion Control System is powering up, a "topology test" is
automatically carried out to ensure that the hardware is consistent with the programmed
configuration.
