Configuring the TD 200
2.1
Starting the STEP 7–Micro/WIN TD 200 Configuration Wizard
STEP 7–Micro/WIN provides a "wizard" that makes it easy to configure the parameter block
and the messages in the data memory area of the S7-200 CPU. The TD 200 Configuration
Wizard automatically writes the parameter block and message texts to the data block editor
after you finish choosing the options and creating the messages. This data block can then be
downloaded to the CPU. For detailed information about the TD 200 parameter block and
message formats, see Appendix D.
This chapter contains the procedure for creating a sample TD 200 application. Use the
instructions in this example to create a TD 200 parameter block and three messages using
the TD 200 Configuration Wizard. The first message is text only. The second message
contains both text and embedded data. The third message is a text message that requires
acknowledgement by the operator.
The example also shows how to use the function keys to enable a message and how to use
the acknowledge- and edit-notification bits within your program.
To open the wizard, select the menu command Tools
Figure 2-1.
To navigate through the dialog boxes of the wizard, click on "Next>." At any time during the
procedure, click on the "<Prev" button to go back to a previous dialog box if you need to
change or review any of the parameters you have defined. In the final dialog box, click on
"Finish" to validate and save the parameter block and close the wizard.
You can view the configured parameter block and messages by opening the
STEP 7–Micro/WIN data block editor.
