2.3 Simplifying configuration with SIMOCODE pro
Configuration with SIMOCODE pro
SIMOCODE pro only is used to perform all control, monitoring and signal pre-processing
functions.
The advantages of this configuration are as follows:
● Additional overload relays, thermistor evaluation devices, current transformers and
analog/digital converters are not necessary.
● The wiring of the control circuit (interlocking) is simplified.
● The start and stop switches are wired directly to the inputs of the basic unit.
● The contactor coil is energized via the output of the basic unit. An auxiliary contact for
locking is not required.
The following figure illustrates a configuration with SIMOCODE pro connected to
PROFIBUS:
