Commissioning
Commissioning essentially comprises:
● Checking the scale construction
● Specifying the parameters
● Calibration
● Verifying the envisaged functionality
7.1
Factory-set parameters
The electronic weighing system described here is provided with factory-set parameters. The
parameters have been provided for a typical 100 kg scale based on three load cells.
Parameters which can be entered in % or time are preset in such a way that they provide good
results for most applications.
With these default parameters, commissioning can be carried out in 5 minutes (see chapter 5-
minute quick start with the operator panel and the Ready-for-Use software (Page 38)).
7.2
Commissioning tools
Commission the electronic weighing system using the following alternatives:
● Touch panel und SIWAREX WP321 function block in S7-300/400/1200 or 1500
A free example project is available for download online at TIA Portal project "Ready-for-use"
for SIWAREX WP321 (https://support.industry.siemens.com/cs/ww/en/view/94109373).
● Commissioning with SIWATOOL V7
SIWATOOL V7 is included in the WP configuration package available for
purchase, Ordering data (Page 123). To communicate between SIWAREX WP and
SIWATOOL V7, use an additional interface converter USB/RS485.
Use SIWATOOL V7 to commission the scale without SIMATIC expertise with a standard PC.
Backup files can also be created and loaded. In the event of a fault, additional SIWATOOL
diagnostics functions enable fast analysis of the cause.
