Introduction
This document explains the basic principles of using the Library Soft Starter 3RW44. The
library contains a CFC template to fulfill the control function of a Soft Starter device.
For reducing configuration time on site, a module driver generator is included in this library.
By using this driver generator, it is ensured that all necessary interconnections will be
handled automatically by the system and the device is ready to operate in PCS 7
environment.
Custom configuration can be done by the user as well. User manual and online help will give
detailed information about the blocks and their input and output pins.
Any manual changes done in the interconnections between the blocks can be reverted by
running the driver generator again. This will reset all interconnections to initial state.
This document will guide you through the necessary steps for using the template and the
module driver generator in a PCS 7 environment using a sample project. This example uses
minimum hardware, single station, one PLC connected to one Soft Starter via PROFIBUS.
