numbers determined by SINAMICS are entered in the properties of the components. Further,
new DO variables are automatically generated and assigned to the imported components.
As from a newer CNC software version, the DO variables used for CNC commissioning are
stored in the control and can be assigned and displayed again.
A topology is displayed in two ways in Topo. On the one hand, in a structurally hierarchic tree,
and on the other hand, in a systematic graphic form which allows the wiring to be more easily
understood and individual components to be simply identified.
Both of these display types offer the same functionality regarding creating and editing a
topology. As a consequence, you can work with one or both of these display types. The
topology tree or the topology graph can be shown or hidden via the menu "View > Topology
Tree"
To display and edit several topologies, they can be selected in the list of topologies by making
a multiple selection. Just the same as for Comparing topologies (Page 373), both technologies
are displayed next to one another.
Procedure for creating a topology
1. Start Topo.
2. In the "Project" main menu, select the "New" entry to create a new project.
A new topology is now automatically created with the default name "Topology" and a "Bus
3" inserted.
