8.3 Initial commissioning an open controller
Creating the configuration
To create the configuration in the TIA Portal, follow these steps:
1. Double-click "Add new device" in the project tree.
2. Select "PC systems > SIMATIC S7 Open Controller > ET 200SP Open Controller >".
3. Select the required device.
4. Select the desired version and click "OK".
5. The following interfaces can be seen in the Open Controller:
– Onboard interface X2 (GB Ethernet Windows interface) that is assigned directly to the
– Exchangeable BusAdapter that is assigned directly to the Software Controller (2 ports)
6. The following preconfigured components can be seen in the device view:
– CPU 1515SP PC2 / CPU 1515SP PC2 F/T/TF: CPU 1505SP (F/T/TF) Software
– CPU 1515SP PC2 + HMI / CPU 1515SP PC2 F + HMI: CPU 1505SP (F) Software
7. Insert the server module from the hardware catalog.
The server module forms the termination of the CPU with the I/O modules. If no server
module is configured, the server module is added automatically during compiling.
8.3.2
Setting the IP address
Set the IP address as follows:
● BusAdapter [X1]: The configured IP address becomes effective on the Open Controller
after a download. To go online via the [X1] interface, the configured address must match
the [X1] address entered in the panel of the software controller.
● Onboard interface [X2]: The configured IP address should be identical to the Windows
IP address of the Open Controller.
8.3.3
Changing the properties of the S7-1500 Software Controller
Information on the property of the CPU is available in the Inspector window under
"Properties". You can change these properties if required.
