Configuring SIMATIC PCS 7 BOX in the PCS 7 Network

5.2.1

Overview of Commissioning and Configuration

A connection to the plant and terminal bus is made to integrate the
SIMATIC PCS 7 BOX station in an existing PCS 7 system.
The special features of this configuration variant are that the time synchronization
of the AS and OS in the SIMATIC PCS 7 BOX station can be performed by a time
master, such as SICLOCK TM, on the plant bus and that the communication is
possible between an AS in a PCS 7 network and the CPU 416-2 PCI in the
SIMATIC PCS 7 BOX station.
In the following overview, only the steps that deviate from the configuration variant
"SIMATIC PCS 7 BOX as single station system" and are marked in bold are
available as links. The other steps correspond to the "SIMATIC PCS 7 BOX as
single station system" configuration variant.
