First Power-On - Siemens SIMATIC S7-1500 System Manual

Reactions after removing/inserting the SIMATIC memory card
Inserting and removing the SIMATIC memory card in STOP mode triggers a re-evaluation of
the SIMATIC memory card. The CPU hereby compares the content of the configuration on the
SIMATIC memory card with the backed-up retentive data. If the backed-up retentive data
matches the data of the configuration on the SIMATIC memory card, the retentive data is
retained. If the data differs, the CPU automatically performs a memory reset (which means
the retentive data is deleted) and then switches to STOP.
The CPU evaluates the SIMATIC memory card and indicates this by flashing the RUN/STOP
LED.

First power-on

Requirements
• The SIMATIC Drive Controller and the SINAMICS components have been installed and
wired.
• The SIMATIC Memory Card is in the SIMATIC Drive Controller.
Procedure
Proceed as follows to commission the SIMATIC Drive Controller:
Switch on the 24 V power supply to the SIMATIC Drive Controller.
Startup characteristics of the CPU
Startup begins once the power supply has been switched on:
RUN/STOP
Alternately flashes
yellow/green
Flashes yellow at
2 Hz
On and yellow
Startup behavior of SINAMICS Integrated
SINAMICS Integrated power up begins once the power supply has been switched on. The
SINAMICS Integrated state after successful power up depends on the configuration state of
the SINAMICS Integrated and whether SINAMICS components are running a firmware update.
If booting up fails (for example because of a firmware update with errors), this is indicated by
the RDY LED (2 Hz) flashing red.
You can find detailed information on the various LED states in the SIMATIC Drive Controller
manual (https://support.industry.siemens.com/cs/ww/en/view/109766666).
