6 Configuring with STEP 7 or a GSDML File
− Universal slaves
You can configure universal slaves (AS-i A/B slave, AS-i standard slave)
freely according to the requirements of the particular slave device.
Whether or not the IDs assigned in the properties dialog match the type of
the actually connected AS-i slave is not checked by STEP 7.
− Siemens modules
When you select a specific Siemens module, the IO code is set in every
case, other identifiers or parameters may be set depending on the slave
type. Set parameters are not active and grayed out. You can set active
parameters.
Note
If a value in the configuration data (I/O code, ID code, ID1 code, ID2 code) is not
F , the configuration data and AS-i parameters stored on the link will be
hex
overwritten by the values set here in STEP 7 while the PROFINET IO connection
is being established.
The advantage of individual configuration of the AS-i slaves is that the settings
from the configuration are transferred to the IE/AS-i LINK again every time the
PROFINET IO controller starts up and that you have documented the configuration
of the AS-i slaves in your STEP 7 project. Configuration also means use of less I/O
addresses.
S "Diagnostic addr." tab
Setting the diagnostic address of the AS-i slave.
Selecting the I/O modules
If you do not want to adopt the default assignment of the IE/AS-i LINK with AS-i
placeholder modules, you can replace existing I/O modules by reconfiguring in the
properties dialog or can delete selected modules. Extra I/O modules in the
configuration do not cause a problem as long as they are configured as
placeholder modules (all identifiers set to F
If you want to reinsert a module deleted in the configuration table, take a slave
module from the hardware catalog and drag it to the required row.
You will find the slave modules in the following folder in the HW Config catalog:
PROFINET IO > Gateway > IE/AS-i Link PN IO > 6GK1 411-2ABx0 >
firmware version V1.0 or V2.0
Note
If you change the name and the order number in the configuration of a slave
module, the default name of the slave module will be adopted. To change the
name, you will need to open the Properties dialog of the slave module again and
change the name.
