Introduction - Siemens SIMATIC S7-300 Getting Started

Introduction

Introduction
This Getting Started contains a practical example guiding you through eleven steps in
commissioning a fully functional application, and showing you how to carry out motion
commands. It is thus a valuable help in getting started with the basic functions of a CPU
317T-2 DP.
Depending on your degree of experience, working through the sample will take between one
and two hours.
Note
This Getting Started presumes that you have connected a SIMODRIVE 611 universal drive
to the DP(DRIVE) interface of the CPU 317T-2 DP In case you do not have a drive, we
recommend you refer to the Getting started documentation "CPU 317T-2 DP: Controlling a
virtual axis
Note
You can also use the CPU 315T-2 DP instead of the CPU 317T-2 DP. To do this, select
CPU 315T-2 DP in HW Config. Otherwise, the configuring steps are the same.
