3.2 Commissioning the DP master
Function Description
Working offline ... this means that you are only working at the computer and you do not have a
connection to a drive. Only the opened files are included in the browser under
”Operate”.
Working online ... this means that you are connected with one or several drives and ”SimoCom
A” also recognizes these drives.
This is the case if ”SimoCom A” has already searched for the interface once.
You go online, if
Your default is set in the menu ”Options/Settings/Communications” (this is
realized when starting ”SimoComA”)
You make the selection with the operator action ”Search for online drives”
In the online mode, the opened files and all of the drives available via the
interface are contained in the browser under ”Operate”.
Note:
The parameters displayed via ”SimoCom A” are not cyclically read.
Working in the drive You can work directly in the drive or only at the PC in the file, but only with one
or
data set at any one time.
in the file
For example, you can be connected with a POSMO A – 300 W (4A) and a
POSMO A – 75 W (6A), so that you have access to the parameter sets in both
of the drives – and at the same time have several files open. All of these
parameter sets are displayed in the browser under ”Operate” and also in the
menu ”File”.
If you select ”Drive 4A”, then you will see the current status and parameters of
drive 4A – but no others. When changing over, for example to the ”My.par” file,
then you only see the parameters associated with this file.
Parameters files which have been opened can be re–closed using
the”File/Close file” menu.

Recommendation: Set the browser to ”Parameter” and work through the
following dialog boxes one after the other ”Configuration – re–configure drive”
––> ”Mechanical system” ––> ”Traversing blocks”.
1. Configuration ... here, enter the drive type being used, the gearbox stage and the braking
option (this only applies to the 300 W motor).
If this data is changed, this causes the parameters, which are dependent on it,
to be re–calculated, i.e. changes previously made to the parameters involved
are overwritten.
2. Mechanical system ... here, you can define the mechanical system used
(e.g. rotary axis?, external gearbox?).
