Configuring the Distributed I/O (DP)
Assigning Parameters
System Requirements
STEP 7 as of version 5.1, SP 2, Hotfix 1 and SIMATIC PDM optional package as of
version 5.1, SP 2 or PCS7 as of version 5.2.
To be able to work with PDM online, you require a PROFIBUS DP interface e.g.
CP5611 (6GK1 561-1AA00). The CP has to be set at the PROFIBUS DP interface
(in the SIMATIC Manager via: Extras > Setting the PG/PC Interface).
Assigning Parameters to the Electronic Module
1. In HW Config, double-click the first electronic module in the configuration table.
2. Select "Specialist" in the subsequent dialog box as user and confirm with "OK";
you can assign parameters in this mode.
3. SIMATIC PDM is started with the current parameters and identification data of
the module.
4. Set the parameters of the electronic module using the SIMATIC PDM, save the
parameters (via File > Save menu command) and load them via the Device >
Load Into Device menu command into the electronic module; exit SIMATIC
PDM.
5. Double-click the next electronic module in the configuration table and repeat
steps 2 and 3 until you have configured all electronic modules.
Assigning Parameters to the Interface Module.
1. In HW Config, double-click on DP slave "IM 151-2" (in the upper part of the
station window). Select "Specialist" in the subsequent window; SIMATIC PDM
is started.
2. Set the parameters of the IM 151-2 interface module, save the parameters (via
File > Save menu command) and download the parameters into the interface
module via the Device > Load Into Device menu command; exit SIMATIC
PDM.
Assigning Parameters to all ET 200iS modules.
1. In HW Config, double-click on DP slave "IM 151-2" (in the upper part of the
station window). Select "Specialist" in the subsequent window; SIMATIC PDM
is started and all ET 200iS modules are loaded.
2. Download all module parameters (via the File > Load into Programming
Device/PC menu command).
3. Assign parameters to all necessary modules. You can navigate to all ET 200iS
modules from the left panel of SIMATIC PDM.
4. Save the changes (via File > Save menu command) for the file to be updated.
5. Load all parameters into the modules (via Device > Load into Device menu
command); exit SIMATIC PDM.
You can also parameterize ET 200iS only with SIMATIC PDM (For more
information, see the SIMATIC PDM online Help.)
