Creating a SIMATIC station
1. Select the object "Plant > Building > Floor, level > Room, Control center".
2. Select the "New > Cabinet" command from the context menu of the room.
The cabinet is created below the room.
3. Select a station in the context menu of the cabinet that has been prepared for redundant
hardware.
Example: "New > DCS > SIMATIC 400H station".
The station is created below the cabinet.
Equipping the SIMATIC station with redundant hardware
1. Select the "New > > Rack <required rack>" command in the shortcut menu of the station.
The rack is used to mount the assemblies.
Example: Select a rack of the UR2 type:
"Rack, UR2"
Note
Special rule for UR2-H racks
With UR2-H racks, all modules on the entire station are placed on one rack. This UR2-H rack
is only divided into two areas electrically; the slots themselves provide space for two CPUs.
For this reason, the UR2-H racks are not transferred to PAA as two racks with slots 1 to 9,
but as one rack with slots 1 to 18. This means that the first half of the slots are intended for
the first CPU, and the second half for the second CPU.
Accordingly, you have to match the slot numbers yourself with the UR2-H racks.
2. Select a power supply under "New > Power supply" in the shortcut menu of the rack.
3. Select a central processing unit (CPU) under "New > Central Assemblies" in the shortcut
menu of the rack.
4. Select a synchronization module under "New > Sync modules since V6" in the shortcut
menu of the CPU.
The "Name" field of the synchronization modules contains the number of the slot occupied
by the synchronization module in the CPU.
5. Select an input or output module from one of the following folders under "New" in the
shortcut menu of the rack:
For this, select a module marked with "I" or "O" from one of the following folders:
– "Digital assemblies"
– "Analog assemblies"
– "Communication"
– "Function modules"
6. If necessary, assign the rack to the location where it should be assembled.
7. Create the second rack. Proceed as described for the first rack.
