It is vital for users of the SINAMICS DCM Control Module to realize that they need to check whether the method used for current measurement is really able to map the desired overcurrents and the expected peak values within the tolerance required. It is important to check the current measurement circuit to ensure that current mapping remains linear right through to the desired overcurrent capacity.

The USS® protocol is purely a master-slave protocol in which a SINAMICS DCM can only ever be a slave. In this case, a SINAMICS DCM only sends a telegram to the master if it has received a telegram from it. Therefore, SINAMICS DCMs cannot use the USS® protocol to exchange data with one another directly.

10.26 Connecting units in parallel and in series Controller • For all of the topologies, a SINAMICS DCM is used as the master converter. The other converters are called slave converters. • The control commands – switch-on/stop, operating enable, quick stop, etc. are fed to the master converter for all topologies.
The devices are connected using (8-pin) shielded patch cables of type UTP CAT5 in acc. with ANSI/EIA/TIA 568, such as those that are used in PC network technology. A standard, 5 m cable can be obtained directly from Siemens (article number: 6RY1707-0AA08). (n-1) cables are required for connecting n devices in parallel.
The converters SINAMICS DCM 1, DCM 2, DCM 3 and DCM 4 are operated in the n+m operating mode. The SINAMICS DCM 5 converter is, regarding its power unit, independent of the others.
Page 569
For n+m operation, a SINAMICS DCM is defined as master. Additional SINAMICS DCM are defined as substitute masters. As with the standard mode, the device defined as the master carries out the closed-loop speed control, the closed-loop armature current control, the line synchronization tasks and determines the firing points.

10.33 CPU time load with SINAMICS DCM The CPU time load of the SINAMICS DCM can be read out at r9976[1]. Principally, the following rules apply: 1. The cyclic DC closed-loop control of the SINAMICS DCM generates a base load of approx.
Page 624
The additional CPU time load listed above for TM15, TM31 and TM150 apply for a sampling time of 4 ms (p4099 = 4000). Setting faster sampling rates in the TM modules increases the CPU time load in the SINAMICS DCM to values considerably higher than those stated previously.
Active Peer-to-peer Active Note The capacity of the SINAMICS DCM can be expanded by equipping the SINAMICS DCM with a 2nd CUD (right-hand mounting slot). See Chapter "Expanding the SINAMICS DCM to include a second CUD (Page 590)". 10.33.2 Computation examples Example 1: Project A is a single drive in a control cabinet.

Copy the OEM folder to an empty memory card. Note The memory card supplied from Siemens as option S01 or S02 includes, when supplied, a dump of the internal device firmware. These files are only required to update firmware. These files can be deleted for all other applications of the memory card. Copy the files into a local folder of your PG/PC and delete the files on the memory card, before you use the card for the functions described in this chapter.
The CPU time load can be reduced by either deactivating blocks or assigning used blocks to a runtime group with a longer sampling time. A list of all of the DCC blocks available for SINAMICS DCM and the required computation times are listed in Appendix B.
DCC blocks and @parameters also more highly loads the internal memory (ROM) of the CUD. For using DCC, on the SINAMICS DCM, as compared with the maximum possible configurations documented in the "Maximum configuration" chapter, depending on the size of the diagram, one must omit optional components.
● If there is insufficient memory on the CUD for the configuration of the desired DCC diagram, the scope of the blocks needs to be reduced or the SINAMICS DCM needs to be equipped with a 2nd CUD inserted in the right-hand slot.

Whereby, the entire load current (including the freewheeling current) is measured via an external shunt. The shunt voltage must be increased via an external shunt converter and then led to the SINAMICS DCM via an analog input. See function diagram 6850, column 2.

12.4 Using SINAMICS DCM as thyristor controller in heating applications Under certain preconditions, the SINAMICS DCM can be used as three-phase AC power controller for heating applications. This means that in some cases SIVOLT A three-phase AC power controllers can be replaced by SINAMICS DCM converters.

Safety functions of the SINAMICS DC MASTER Technical fundamentals and data The SINAMICS DCM is equipped from function version 04 with a safety-related switch-off signal path for STO. An additional license is not required for this function. In connection with an external safety relay (e.g. 3SK1) and with a redundant switch-off signal path via armature line contactor, a Safe Torque Off (STO) or Safe Stop 1 (SS1) safety function SIL 3/PL e Cat.
● SS1 application with circuit breaker and F-PLC Description of the applications The SINAMICS DCM is activated and evaluated in all four application examples each with a 2-channel EMERGENCY STOP trigger mechanism (e.g. EMERGENCY STOP button, safety door switch, etc.) via an additional 3SK1121 safety relay (green block).

X177.15 DI/DO 4) of SINAMICS DCM is guided via the safety relay. Note In the case of SS1 applications, the OFF 3 ramp of the SINAMICS DCM and the setting of the delay time on the safety relay, must be manually set to the process and adjusted and coordinated with one another when commissioning the system.

The external safety relay (e.g. 3SK11…), can, based on the feedback signals of the SINAMICS DCM DC converter, detect possible faults/errors in the switch-off signal paths, and trigger an STO in both channels. An error is thus detected and the system can be repaired.
