Siemens SINAMICS G220 - Replacing the Converter Without Memory Card; Restoring the Drive Data Via the Web Server

6. Switch on the line voltage of the converter.
7. Set the new converter to suit the application:
– You have backed up the settings of the converter that was replaced to an external storage
medium, e.g. a memory card:
If the new converter has the same power rating as the converter replaced, transfer the
settings to the new converter.
– If there is no backup of the data for the converter replaced or if the new converter has a
di󹪜erent power rating, commission the converter as a new converter.
16.1.2 Replacing the converter without memory card
16.1.2.1 Restoring the drive data via the web server
Requirement
• The converter is operated without a memory card.
• You have a backup 󹪝le of the source converter on your operating unit.
In the description below, a distinction is made between restoring drive data from an
encrypted backup 󹪝le or from an unencrypted backup 󹪝le.
• The rated power of the target converter is the same as the rated power of the converter from
which the backed-up data and settings originate.
• Ideally, the target converter is in the factory setting.
It either involves a brand-new target converter or a target converter where all user-de󹪝ned
settings have been restored to the factory setting. You can 󹪝nd more information in Chapter
"Full reset of all device settings (Page777)".
Procedure
1. Switch o󹪜 the supply voltage of the source converter.
2. Release all of the connections at the source converter, replace the converter and re-establish
the connections at the target converter.
3. Switch on the supply voltage of the target converter.
4. Enter the IP address of the target converter, e.g. https://169.254.11.22, in the web browser.
The web server is started. The "Basic settings" page is displayed.
Note
Determining the IP address of the target converter
You determine the IP address of the target converter, e.g. using the integrated
SINAMICS SDI Standard. You can 󹪝nd more information in Chapter "Scanning the IP address
(Page317)".
5. Make the basic settings for the converter.
You can 󹪝nd more information in Chapter "Basic settings (Page214)".
