Connecting SINAMICS Integrated online
To connect SINAMICS Integrated online:
• You need STEP 7 Professional and SINAMICS Startdrive (V16 or higher).
• The hardware configuration must have been loaded to the SIMATIC Drive Controller.
• A subnet must be configured at the interface to which you are connecting your PC/PC.
• The configured SINAMICS firmware version must match the firmware version of the
device.
For information on how to determine the firmware version of the device without SINAMICS
Startdrive, refer to the section Determining the SINAMICS Integrated version (Page 153).
