Install The Configuration Package On The Programming Device; Install And Wire Up The Fm 351 - Siemens SIMATIC FM 351 Getting Started

Based on a concrete example, this primer guides you through five steps in which you install and start up a
functioning application with which you can execute a travel operation via channel 1 and then try out and
test the basic hardware and software functions of your FM 351 and obtain and check the
application-dependent parameters. The references to the manual will also help you to get a general
overview of the information it contains. Depending on your degree of experience, working through the
sample will take between one and two hours.
Requirements
The following requirements must be met:
You have an S7-300 station consisting of a power supply and a CPU.

You have created a project for the S7-300 station.
The programming device is connected to the CPU.
You have an FM 351 module, the configuration package belonging to the FM 351, an external 24 V DC
power supply, an encoder, a drive, and the required accessories such as bus interconnectors, front
connectors, and wiring.
