Operator Control and Monitoring DevicesPush Button PanelsSIMATIC PP17■ OverviewSIMATIC Push Button Panels are the innovative alternativeto conventional operator panels for easy and direct control ofmachines:• Pre-fabricated and ready for operation;simply connect to the control and all buttons and lamps areready for immediate use• Connection to any type of control via a bus cable(PROFIBUS DP as "standard slave" or MPI)• PP17-I:Fitted with short-stroke keys, additional digital inputs andoutputs and slots for 22.5 mm standard elementsPP17-II:Fitted with short-stroke keys, additional digital inputs andoutputs and much more■ Benefits• Up to 90% time savings: Pushbuttons, switches and lamps donot have to be fitted and wired individually• Use of standard cables, for example, makes configuration andstartup easier• No configuration tool required• Service-friendly thanks to rear display to indicate operatingstates and messages in plain text, without programmingdevice• Quick and easy machine operation thanks to multi-coloredindicator lights• User-friendly labeling option for pushbuttons and lamps usingslide-in labels• As the 22.5 mm standard elements can be connected directlyon the panel, no additional wiring and I/O modules are required.■ DesignThe push button panels impress customers with their compactdesign:• Factory-fitted with short-stroke keys, that can be labeled asrequired, also in color, using insertable strips• Smooth front that is easy to clean;The front is resistant to various oils, greases and standarddetergents• Long-life, multi-color, wide-area LEDs in all short-stroke keys• Additional digital inputs and outputs for flexible expansions• Pre-perforated cutouts for additional standard 22.5 mmcomponents (push buttons, lamps, etc.) for PP17-I• Rear display with keypad to display operating states in plaintext for changing the default settings• Central enable input• The PP17 is designed to match the OP17 and they can thereforebe mounted together• Low-maintenance because batteries are not required• All parameters are located in a memory module that can easilybe replaced■ Function• LED color modes (e.g., red, green, orange, red-flashing,green-flashing, yellow-flashing)• Integrated flashing frequency for digital outputs and LED• Integrated diagnostic functions• Integrated lamp and key test (also for additional digital inputs24 V inputs and outputs)• Menu-assisted parameterization via rear display with miniaturekeyboard• Short-stroke keys and digital inputs are also parameterizableas switches• Parameterizable pulse stretching for short-stroke keys anddigital inputs (max. 1000 ms)• PROFIBUS DP standard slave2■ ApplicationThe rugged PP17 Push Button Panels are designed for easy andstraight-forward operation of the machine.They can be used wherever keys and lamps are essential componentsin a human-machine interface. In the food processingindustry, for example, on machines and systems on whichsmooth fronts are required for easier cleaning. Even in specialmechanical equipment manufacture, the push button panelscan be used to easily set up standard operator panels that arethen amenable to fast, flexible and modular expansion. The keyand lamp functions can be changed later at any time withouthaving to modify the wiring.Siemens ST 80 · 2006 2/11
