Overview

Introduction
You can configure the plant in online mode after having completed its wiring. You can use the
"Automatic configuration" function to load the SINAMICS components connected via DRIVE-
CLiQ to your PG/PC. However, this is only possible for initial commissioning.
Note
Components without DRIVE-CLiQ connection must be edited in offline mode. You may need
to edit DRIVE-CLiQ components which were detected in the course of automatic configuration
(for example, adding encoder data if using SMC modules).
Prerequisites for online configuration
● You have created a project in SIMOTION SCOUT and inserted a SIMOTION D410-2 in the
project.
● You have configured the communication between the SIMOTION D410-2 and the PG/PC.
