SINUMERIK 840Di sl Manual (HBIsl) – 01/2007 Edition
8.2 Requirements
As a condition for creating a PROFIBUS configuration using the default configu-
ration the following components are required:
S SIMATIC STEP 7
S 840Di sl Rack
(a SIMATIC 300 station preconfigured for SINUMERIK 840Di sl. Part of the
PLC basic program)
S SlaveOM
(part of the scope of supply of a SINUMERIK 840Di sl: SIMATIC add–on
software)
SIMATIC STEP 7 (option) is required in the following version or later:
S SIMATIC STEP 7 as of Version 5.3, Service Pack 2
SIMATIC STEP 7 can either be installed directly on the SINUMERIK 840Di sl
PCU or on an external computer (PG/PC).
If SIMATIC STEP 7 is installed on the SINUMERIK 840Di sl, no additional MPI/
PROFIBUS cable is required to load the S7 configuration in the PLC.
Windows applications executed on the SINUMERIK 840Di sl have direct access
to the PLC through the internal MPI interface of the MCI board.
Installation of additional software on the SINUMERIK 840Di sl is described in
detail in Section 17, Page 17-477.
If SIMATIC STEP 7 is installed on an external computer (PG/PC), it must fulfill
the following conditions:
S PG/PC interface is parameterized (see Section 6.2.2, Page 6-135)
S An MPI/PROFIBUS connection exists between the external computer
(PG/PC) and the SINUMERIK 840Di sl.
The 840Di sl Rack is a SIMATIC–300 station preconfigured for SINUMERIK
840Di sl. The following version is available in the hardware catalog of HW Config:
S SINUMERIK 840Di sl with PLC 317–2DP 2AJ10
