Performing an online configuration

5.3.1

Overview

Introduction
You can configure the plant in online mode after having completed its wiring. You can use the
"Automatic configuration" function to load the SINAMICS components connected via DRIVE-
CLiQ to your programming device/PC. However, this functionality is only available within the
initial commissioning phase.
Note
Components without DRIVE-CLiQ connection must be edited in offline mode. You may need
to edit DRIVE-CLiQ components which were detected in the course of automatic configuration
(for example, adding encoder data if using SMC modules).
Prerequisites for online configuration
● You created a project in SIMOTION SCOUT and added a SIMOTION D410 to the project.
● You configured the communication between the the programming device / PC and
● Your system has been installed and wired.
Procedure
Steps involved in offline configuring:
● Establishing the online connection (Page 93)
● Starting automatic configuration (Page 94)
● Editing SINAMICS components (Page 97)
● Download the project to SIMOTION D410 (Page 98)

Establishing the online connection

The procedure for an initial commissioning follows.
To perform an online configuration, you must establish an online connection to the SIMOTION
D410. In this case, no connection can yet be established to SINAMICS Integrated. An
appropriate message is output. Once the hardware configuration has been loaded into the
target device, an online connection to the SINAMICS Integrated is established automatically.
