Compatibility Of Simocode Pro S And Simocode Pro V - Siemens SIMOCODE pro Function Manual

Compatibility of SIMOCODE pro S and SIMOCODE pro V

SIMOCODE pro S and SIMOCODE pro C each have their own gsd file (see Integration of
SIMOCODE pro as a DPV1 slave via GSD in the configuring software (Page 29)).
It is nevertheless possible to replace a SIMOCODE pro C basic unit with a
SIMOCODE pro S basic unit.
SIMOCODE pro S basic units can be addressed with unchanged functionality by configuring
with a SIMOCODE pro C gsd file. SIMOCODE pro C parameter settings using output 3 of
the basic unit are changed in such a way when using SIMOCODE pro S that output 1 of the
multifunction module is used instead of output 3 of the basic unit.
For configurations that use the new functions of the SIMOCODE pro S multifunction module
(additional inputs and outputs, ground fault detection, temperature measurement),
configuring using the SIMOCODE pro S gsd file is absolutely necessary.
The same applies when integrating into STEP 7 via the Object Manager of
SIMOCODE pro C.
