GETTING STARTED
Integrating Remote I/O Stations with Com Unit LB/FB8X09* / LB/FB8X05*
3.
Configuration of the PROFIBUS Master
The following sections will describe the parameterization of the PLC,
which acts as the master in the current system configuration. The
procedure described relates to the use of a Siemens SIMATIC S7-
300.
For master parameterization, a connection must be established
between the PC and the PLC This can be done using a SIMATIC PC
adapter (MPI-USB adapter) (see Fig. 7).
The Simatic Manager is required to perform the
following actions.
3.1. Preparing the Simatic Manager
1. Start the Simatic Manager.
2. In the Simatic Manager, open the project in which the remote I/O station is
to be added.
3. If not already available, add a SIMATIC 300 station (due to the use of the
SIMATIC S7-300):
4. Open the HW Config by double-clicking on "Hardware":
5. In the HW Config, create your control system with the corresponding CPU
and a PROFIBUS connection.
