11.5.3 Drive configuration
The following data must be assigned parameters in the NC for the cyclic process data
exchange between the NC and the DP slave drives:
● I/O address of the drives
● I/O address of the Control Units (optional, only SINAMICS)
● Message frame
I/O addresses
The I/O address tells the NC the data areas via which cyclic process data exchange occurs
with the drive or the Control Unit.
The I/O addresses assigned in the SIMATIC S7 project are entered in the following machine
data:
● MD13050 $MN_DRIVE_LOGIC_ADDRESS[n] (logical I/O address)
● MD13120 $MN_CONTROL_UNIT_LOGIC_ADDRESS (logical I/O address for the Control
Unit (SINAMICS))
To parameterize the PROFIBUS communication for the drives, see:
● SINAMICS: Section
"DP slave: SINAMICS S120" (Page 287)
● SIMODRIVE: Section "DP slave: SIMODRIVE drives"
Standard values: Axes
The default values for the I/O addresses of the axes are designed so that there is sufficient
clearance per axle, starting at I/O address 4100, each with a measuring circuit:
● MD13050 $MN_DRIVE_LOGIC_ADDRESS[n] = 4100 + n * 40
