Commissioning

7.1

Introduction

Commissioning consists mainly of checking the mechanical setup of the scale, assignment
of parameters, performing the calibration and checking the intended functionality. SIWAREX
WP251 provides a variety of commissioning options: using the "SIWATOOL" PC software,
using the WP251 function block via the S7-1200 CPU or touch panel or using the
Modbus TCP/IP/Modbus RTU interface. "SIWATOOL" is a component of the WP251
configuration package (see Accessories). The function block and the "Ready-for-use"
example application can be downloaded for free from Siemens Online Support.
