Commissioning
The steps described below are examples of using the 'Siemens SIMATIC S7-315' controller and the
'Siemens STEP 7' controller software, version 5.5 with Service Pack SP 3, with the English language
version è Documentation of the higher-level controller and controller software.
Switching on the power supply
If the control and network devices have separate power supplies, they must be switched in the
following sequence:
1. Switch on the power supply of the energy efficiency module.
2. Switch on the power supply for the controller.
Addressing the network
The controller uses the following for addressing:
– Device names, short device names
– IP addresses, optional MAC ID
– Input addresses/output addresses, I/O addresses
Basic addressing rules
Bus node:
– The bus node occupies 0 inputs and 0 outputs if no diagnostic message is active.
– Active status bits occupy 8 input bits.
– 1 active I/O diagnostics interface occupies 16 input bits and 16 output bits.
Network:
– The address assignment of the inputs does not depend on the address assignment of the outputs.
– Addressing is carried out in bytes.
Device description file, GSDML file
A device description file, GSDML file, is needed for configuration and parameterisation of the bus
node. The device description file contains all information required to integrate the module into the
higher-order controller.

Setting up automation project and controller
1. Start the controller software.
2. Create a new project: 'File' > 'New...'.
3. Enter a project name, e.g. MSE6-C2M, PROFINET.
4. Add the controller: 'Insert' > Station, e.g. 'SIMATIC 300 Station'.
5. Expand the project tree and select the controller.
6. Open the hardware configuration window: 'Edit' > 'Open Object'.
Installing the device description file
1. Open the Festo Support Portal è www.festo.com/sp.
2. Enter the search term GSDML MSE.
3. Select, save and unpack the current device description file in the Software tab.
4. Install the device description file: 'Options' > 'Install GSD File...'. Select the file path of the device
description file: 'Browse'. Select and install the file: 'Install'.
