Ø Optional configuration of process data
Ø Utilization of internode data communication
The MICROMASTER 4 with extended functionality is based on an S7-specific
configuring software add-on called the "Slave Object Manager".
After the Slave Object Manager has been installed in STEP 7, the MICROMASTER
4 is displayed as a separate folder in the STEP 7 HW Catalog (under the
SIMOVERT folder).
The Slave Object Manager replaces and extends the functionality of the GSD-
based, STEP 7-integrated option.
The Slave Object Manager is an integral component of the following products:
Ø "Drive ES Basic V5.1"
Ø "Drive ES SIMATIC V5.1"
Ø "Drive ES PCS7 V5.1"
(these products require STEP 7 version 5.1 or PCS7 version 5.1.)
Further information about configuring the data exchange between a
MICROMASTER 4 and a SIMATIC S7 can be found in the description of block
package "Drive ES SIMATIC" or in the online help of the Slave Object Manager.
Optional configuration
Up to four process data, separated according to setpoints and actual values, can
be configured in each telegram.
The data exchange can be optionally configured for all DP masters configured with
STEP 7.
Utilization of internode data communication
This mode permits slaves to intercommunicate directly, instead of indirectly via the
PROFIBUS-DP master.
Internode communication can be utilized only if the installed PROFIBUS-DP master
supports this functionality. This includes, for example, all S7-CPUs with
"equidistance" ("clocking") capability.
Optional configuration and internode data communication are programmed
completely on the "Configuration" card in the Slave Object Manager. The setpoints
and actual values need only be interconnected correctly in the drive.
Standard blocks for data exchange with MICROMASTER 4
The "Drive ES SIMATIC" package contains standard function blocks which
implement the exchange of data between the drive and SIMATIC S7 in accordance
with DRIVEProfile, version 2.0 or 3.0. These blocks make it easier to write the user
program.
