System- and communication configuring D7-SYS - SIMADYN D
Edition 12.2003
Additional bus components for PROFIBUS are listed in SINEC
Catalog ST PI as well as possible network configurations.
The configured data are saved in files. There are:
• One network file per bus, in which the bus parameters are saved;
(file: xxxxxNCM.NET and xxxxxNCM.BPB)
• One path file per bus, in which several communication paths are
located between COMSS5-PC and the SS5 communications module
or other Siemens FMS modules; (file: xxxxxAP.INI)
• One database file for each bus station; (file name: Vxxxxxxx.xxx)
Program start is dependent on the software environment (STEP 5 or
COM adapter, stage 5 or stage 6).
After the software environment has been started, the "Interface" "SINEC
L2" must first be selected. This is required in order to load the database.
The "SINEC NCM" package should be selected and called-up
corresponding to the software environment.
For many entries, there is a selection of values which have already been
entered, which are called-up with F8. F7 is used to transfer a completed
mask.
