2.4 Starting up the PLC program
2.4.1 Installing the basic program for 840D
A complete general reset of the NCK and the PLC is necessary before starting up the NCU
component for the first time. Turn the "SIM/NCK" switch on the left-hand side to position 1
and the "PLC" switch on the right-hand side to position 3. Then restart the controller. This
action generates a "hard reset request" on the PLC. The memories of the PLC and NC are
then initialized.
Installation
The basic program is installed by the Toolbox by means of the execution of a setup program
for the basic program, hardware expansion for STEP7 (option package for SINUMERIK
840D sl) and NC-Var selector components, as well as for other tools. To start the installation,
run setup.exe in the main CD directory. You can then choose which components to install.
After the installation you can select the basic program library directly from STEP7
(bp7x0_14, 14 is the main basic program version 1.4). The concrete version of the basic
program can be scanned for the object properties of the library or the program folder in the
comment field.
General
The OB source programs, including standard parameterization, interface symbols and data-
block templates for the handheld unit and M decoding functions are included in the SIMATIC
project or SIMATIC library of the basic program.
STEP7 must be installed before installing the basic program Toolbox. It is generally
advisable to reinstall the hardware expansions for STEP7 from the Toolbox following an
update of STEP7.
