4.2 Commissioning workflow
A drive can be commissioned in two ways:
● Create a project offline in Startdrive
The components of the drive are combined offline in Startdrive.
● Create a project by reading out a device configuration
The components of the drive are read-out online and supplemented offline when
required.
Creating a project offline in Startdrive
The following steps are required when commissioning a drive:
1. Create a project with Startdrive (Page 82).
2. Establish an online connection between Startdrive and the target device (Page 137).
3. Perform the basic parameterization of the drive units (Page 162).
4. Download the project to the target device (Page 207).
5. Commission the drive via the control panel (Page 209)
6. Result: The motor turns.
Creating a project by reading out a device configuration
The following steps are necessary for commissioning a drive by reading out a device
configuration:
1. Create a project with Startdrive (Page 152).
2. Optional: Establish an online connection between Startdrive and the target device
(Page 137).
3. Determine the device configuration via an automatic configuration from the target device
(Page 152).
4. Revise the determined device configuration in Startdrive (Page 161).
5. Perform the basic parameterization of the drive units (Page 162).
6. Download the project to the target device (Page 207).
