Create a reference for STARTERS
If you have configured the inverter via GSDML, in STEP 7, you must create a reference of
the inverter for STARTER, so that you can call up STARTER from STEP 7.
This procedure is described using the example of a SINAMICS G120 with Control Unit
CU240B-2 or CU240E-2.
Procedure
Proceed as follows to create a reference of the inverter for STARTER:
1. Highlight the project in the SIMATIC manager
2. Open the "Insert single drive unit" screen form by right clicking on "Insert New
Object/SINAMICS".
3. Under the "Drive device/address" tab, set the device family, device and the firmware
version.
4. In the device version, select your inverter.
5. Set the online access.
6. Set the address.
7. Enter the PROFINET device name in the "General" tab.
8. Exit the screen form with OK.
9. The inverter is visible in your project.
In your project, you have created an inverter reference for STARTER. You can now call
STARTER from your STEP 7 project.
