5. Getting started
5.1 Configuring the encoder with Siemens SIMATIC STEP 7
In this manual some screenshots are shown to explain how to install
and configure the encoder in a supervisor.
In the specific example the development environment is STEP 7 V5.5
+ SP1 with SIEMENS PLC CPU 315-2 PN / DP.
Therefore, the installation of the GSDML file, the assignement of the
IP address and the device name, the configuration of the encoder in
the network, topology, diagnostics, etc. will always refer to the
aforementioned development tools.
If you need to install the encoder using a different configuration tool,
please read and follow carefully the instructions given in the
documentation provided by the manufacturer.
5.2 Mac address
The MAC address is an identifier unique wordlwide.
The MAC-ID consists of two parts: the first 3 bytes are the
manufacturer ID and are provided by IEE standard autority; the last
three bytes represent a consecutive number of the manufacturer.
NOTE
The MAC address is always printed on the encoder label for
commissioning purposes.
The MAC address has the following structure:
