2.3 I/O integration
Note
You will find detailed information on components in the SINAMICS S110/S120 family of
products in the SINAMICS S110/S120 manuals.
It is possible that older DRIVE‑CLiQ components can no longer be used with SIMOTION
D410‑2. You will find detailed information on this in the SIMOTION D410‑2 Commissioning and
Hardware Installation Manual in Section "Migration of SIMOTION D410 to SIMOTION D410‑2"
under "Permissible combinations".

Permissible combinations (Page 233)
2.3 I/O integration
Note
Note that not all modules in the ET 200 I/O family are approved for SIMOTION. Moreover,
system-related functional differences can come into play when these I/Os or I/O systems are
used on SIMOTION vs. on SIMATIC. For example, special process-control functions (e.g.
HART modules, etc.) are not supported by SIMOTION for the ET 200M distributed I/O system.
A detailed, regularly updated list of the I/O modules approved for use with SIMOTION, as well
as notes on their use, can be found at Internet address (https://support.industry.siemens.com/
cs/ww/en/view/11886029)
In addition to the I/O modules enabled for SIMOTION, in principle all certified standard
PROFIBUS slaves (DP-V0/DP-V1/DP-V2) and PROFINET IO devices with RT and IRT real-
time classes may be connected to SIMOTION D410-2. These modules are integrated using the
GSD file (PROFIBUS) or GSDML file (PROFINET) provided by the relevant device
manufacturer.
Note
Please note that in isolated cases, additional boundary conditions must be fulfilled in order to
integrate a module into SIMOTION. Thus, a few modules require "driver blocks" , e.g. in the
form of function blocks, that permit (or simplify) integration.
For modules enabled for SIMOTION (e.g. SIMATIC S7‑300 module FM 350‑1, etc.), these
driver blocks are part of the SIMOTION SCOUT engineering system command library.

Overview
Using a mounting plate, SIMOTION D410-2 can be operated separately, which means it is not
mounted directly on the Power Module.
Application examples:
● Offset installation using CUA31/CUA32 Control Unit Adapter (e.g. for reducing the mounting
depth or in order to use additional interfaces on the CUA).
The SIMOTION D410-2 is snapped on to the mounting plate and connected to the Power
Module in blocksize format via DRIVE-CLiQ using CUA31/CUA32. No more than one
Control Unit Adapter can be connected to the SIMOTION D410-2.
● Using SIMOTION D410-2 without a Power Module.
A SIMOTION D410-2 mounted on the mounting plate is operated without the Power Module
(e.g. for hydraulic applications).
Requirements
You must order the mounting plate for the SIMOTION D410-2 separately. For the article
number, see Section "Spare parts and accessories" in the SIMOTION D410-2 Manual.

Connecting
Supply voltage
Observe the following rules for the supply voltage:
● For stationary installations or systems that do not have all-pole line disconnect switches, the
building installation must include a line side switch or a fuse.
● For load power supplies and power supply modules, the rated voltage range set must
correspond to the local line voltage.
● For all electrical circuits, the fluctuation/deviation of the line voltage from the rated value
must be within the permitted tolerance (refer to the technical data of the used components)
24 V DC supply voltage
Observe the following rules for the 24 V supply:
● Provide lightning protection (e.g. lightning protection devices):
– External lightning protection is required for buildings.
– An internal lightning protection must be provided for for 24 V DC supply cables and signal
cables.
● Ensure safe (electrical) isolation of the extra-low voltage for the 24 V supply.
WARNING
Implement the 24 V DC supply with protective separation as protective extra-low voltage.
Protection against external electrical interference

Observe the following rules for protection against electric effects or faults:
● For all plants or systems, in which SIMOTION is installed, the plant or system must be
connected to a protective conductor for the discharge of electromagnetic interference.
● The wiring arrangement and installation must comply with EMC regulations for the supply,
signal and bus cables.
● A cable or wire break cannot lead to undefined states in the plant or system for signal or bus
cables.

4.3 Electromagnetic compatibility
Rules for current consumption and power loss in an installation

The power loss of all components used in a cabinet must not exceed the maximum amount that
can be dissipated from the cabinet.
Note
When designing the control cabinet, ensure that the temperature inside the cabinet does not
exceed the permitted ambient temperature for the components even at high external
temperatures.
The same installation instructions apply for the SIMOTION D410-2 control unit as for the
SINAMICS S120 CU310-2 control unit with regard to EMC.
Refer to SINAMICS S120 for AC Drives Manual.
4.3.1 General
Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) means that the devices function satisfactorily, without
interfering with other devices and without being disrupted by other devices. The EMC
requirements for variable-speed drive systems (PDS, Power Drive System) are described in
the product standard IEC/EN 61800-3.
A variable-speed drive system consists of the Control Unit and Power Module as well as the
relevant electric motors and encoders, including connecting cables. The driven machine is not
part of the drive system.
Note
PDS as component of machines or systems
For the integration of PDS into machines or systems, additional measures may be required so
that the product standards of these machines or systems are complied with. The machine or
system builder is responsible for taking these measures.
4.3.2 Environments and categories

The EMC environments and categories are defined in the EMC Product Standard EN 61800-3,
as follows:
SIMOTION D410-2
Connecting
Environments
IEC/EN 61800-3 differentiates between the first and second environments - and defines
different requirements for these environments.
First environment
Residential buildings or locations at which the drive system is directly connected to a public low-
voltage line supply without intermediate transformer.
Second environment
All locations outside residential areas. These are basically industrial areas which are supplied
from the medium-voltage line supply via their own transformers.
Categories
IEC/EN 61800-3 differentiates between four drive system categories:
Category C1
Drive systems for rated voltages < 1000 V for unrestricted use in the first environment.
Category C2
Stationary drive systems for rated voltages < 1000 V for operation in the second environment.
The drive system must be installed by appropriately qualified and trained personnel. Additional
measures are required for operation in the first environment.
Category C3
Drive systems for rated voltages < 1000 V, only for operation in the second environment.
Category C4
Drive systems for IT line supplies for operation in complex systems in the second environment.
An EMC plan must be drawn up.
SIMOTION
SIMOTION D is designed for industrial use in accordance with Category C2.
Interference immunity
SIMOTION D and SINAMICS S120 are suitable for operation in the second environment. With
regard to interference immunity, SIMOTION D and SINAMICS S120 can be used in the first and
second environments.
Emitted interference
With regard to interference emission, to comply with the limit values in accordance with IEC/EN
61800-3 second environment, Category C2; in particular for the drive system, certain measures
must be observed (EMC-conform installation by appropriately qualified and trained personnel,
possibly required radio interference suppression filters, etc.) Observe the information on
electromagnetic compatibility (EMC).

EMC notes
Note
Further information can be found in chapter "Control cabinet installation and EMC" in the
SINAMICS S120 AC-Drive Equipment Manual.
Note
Requirements for implementing EMC are listed in EN 61000-6-2, EN 61000-6-4, EN 61800-3,
EN 60204-1 and in the "EMC Installation Guidelines" Configuration Manual. (https://
support.industry.siemens.com/cs/ww/de/view/60612658)
Note
Conformance with the EMC Directive of the EC is ensured by following the measures described
in the "EMC Installation Guideline" Configuration Manual.
Requirement
You have mounted the Control Unit in the control cabinet.
The SIMOTION D410-2 control unit has a protective conductor connection (M4 screw, Torx
T20). This connection is also for the connection of an equipotential bonding conductor.
Note
Requirements for functional safety for machines and systems; reliability and EMC are only
guaranteed with original SIEMENS cables.
DANGER
Protective conductor connection

SIMOTION D and the SINAMICS S120 drive system are designed for use in cabinets with a
protective conductor connection.
All system components and machine parts must be incorporated in the protection concept.
SIMOTION D410-2
Connecting
The drive line-up must be arranged on a common bright mounting plate ① in order to comply
with the EMC limit values. The connection ② establishes a low-impedance connection to the
mounting plate.
The mounting plate must be connected to the protective conductor connection of the control
cabinet. For this purpose, a connection ③ must be established to the protective conductor bar
④. The protective conductor bar ④ must be connected to the protective conductor ⑤.
The protective connection (PE connection) that is used for the motors ⑥ must be established
through the motor cable.
For EMC reasons, the motor cable shield must be laid flat at both the Motor Module (MM) /
Power Module (PM) and motor.
A protective connection ⑧ must also be established for components that are not connected
with low impedance (e.g. control cabinet door via hinges ⑦).
Example: Booksize axis grouping comprising Control Unit (CU), Line Module (LM), and Motor
Modules (MM) as well as drive in blocksize format comprising a Power Module (PM) with
snapped on Control Unit (CU)

For materials other than copper, the cross-section should be increased so that as a minimum,
the same conductivity is attained.
Equipotential bonding
A mounting plate serves simultaneously as an equipotential bonding surface. This means that
no additional equipotential bonding is required within the drive line-up. If a common bright
mounting plate is not available, then equally good equipotential bonding ⑨ must be
established using cable cross-sections as listed in the table above or, as a minimum, with the
same conductivity.

Note
Ground potential and housing (PE) for the SIMOTION D410-2 are connected internally with low
impedance.
Communication links
Within the same control cabinet, no equipotential bonding conductor is required for fieldbus
components if they installed as described above.
You have to ensure equipotential bonding for communication connections between remote
components in a system (e.g. devices in different control cabinets) as well as between buildings
or building sections.
If, for example, data cables (PROFIBUS, PROFINET, Ethernet or DRIVE‑CLiQ) are routed
through several control cabinets, equipotential bonding must be established with an
equipotential bonding conductor. Install the equipotential bonding conductor together with the
data cable.
The following minimum cross-sections are required according to IEC 60364-5-54:
● For copper, at least 6 mm²
● For aluminum, at least 16 mm²
● For steel, at least 50 mm²
NOTICE
Fault of the data link or device defect with missing equipotential bonding
Considerable leakage currents can flow via the data cable if equipotential bonding is not
provided. Disturbance of the data link or device faults may result.
Install an equipotential bonding conductor together with the data cable.
Due to the maximum length of 100 m for PROFIBUS copper cable at 12 Mbit/s or for
PROFINET copper cable and due to the electrical isolation, EMC protection and equipotential
bonding aspects, it is recommended that fiber-optic cables be used for connections between
buildings.

4.9 Connecting PROFIBUS/MPI
4.9.1 PROFIBUS connection components
Connection components
Individual nodes are connected by means of bus connectors and PROFIBUS cable.
Remember to provide a bus connector with a programming port at the ends of the subnet. This
will give you the option of expanding the subnet if required (for example, for a PG or SIMATIC
HMI device).
Use RS 485 repeaters for the connection between segments and to extend the cable.
Segments
A segment is a bus cable between two terminating resistors. A segment can contain up to 32
nodes. In addition, a segment is limited by the permissible cable length, which varies according
to the transmission rate.
Terminating resistor
A cable must be terminated with its own surge impedance to prevent line disturbances caused
by reflections. Activate the terminating resistor at the first and last node of a subnet or segment.
Make sure that the nodes to which the terminating resistor is connected are always supplied
with voltage during power-up and operation.
4.9.2 PROFIBUS cables and connectors
Properties of PROFIBUS cables

The PROFIBUS cable is a two-core, twisted and shielded cable with defined properties:

Longer cable lengths

If you must implement longer cable lengths than permitted in one segment, you must use
RS 485 repeaters. The maximum possible cable lengths between two RS 485 repeaters
correspond to the cable length of a segment. You can connect up to nine RS 485 repeaters in
series.
Note that an RS 485 repeater must be counted as a subnet node when determining the total
number of nodes to be connected, even if it does not have its own PROFIBUS address.

4.9.4 Rules for the laying of PROFIBUS cables
Laying of bus cable

During laying of the PROFIBUS cable, you must:
● Not twist the cable
● Not stretch the cable
● Not squeeze the cable
Supplementary conditions
In addition, when laying a bus cable for indoor use, you must take into account the following
supplementary conditions (dA = external cable diameter):

Note
Make sure that the nodes at which the terminating resistor is located are always supplied
with voltage during startup and operation.
Removing the bus connector

You can remove the bus connector with a looped-through bus cable from the PROFIBUS DP
interface at any time without interrupting data traffic on the bus.
NOTICE
Data communication disturbed because bus terminator missing
A bus segment must be terminated at both ends with a terminating resistor. This is not the
case if the last bus connector node is de-energized, for example. Because the bus connector
takes its voltage from the station, this terminating resistor is ineffective.
Make sure that the stations at which the terminating resistor is connected are always
energized.
4.9.6 Connection rules in the PROFIBUS subnet
Introduction
There are a number of rules for configuring and installing cables for PROFIBUS networks to
ensure seamless communication over PROFIBUS. These rules apply to both configuring and
cabling as well as address assignment for the different network nodes.
SIMOTION D410-2
Connecting
Connection rules
● Before you interconnect individual nodes in a subnet, you must assign a unique PROFIBUS
address to each node.
● Narrow down the number of nodes by limiting the PROFIBUS addresses to the highest
address in the network.
Tip: Mark the address on the housing of all nodes in a subnet. Then you can always see
which address is assigned to which node in your system.
● Connect all nodes in a subnet "in series". No spur lines may be routed to the PROFIBUS DP.
In addition, integrate the PGs and SIMATIC HMI devices for commissioning or servicing in
the subnet in series.
● If you operate more than 32 nodes on a subnet, you must use RS 485 repeaters to connect
the bus segments. More detailed information can be found in the description of the RS 485
repeater, see the S7‑300 Automation Systems, Module Data Manual.
In a PROFIBUS subnet, all segments combined must have at least one DP master and one
DP slave.
● Use RS 485 repeaters to connect ungrounded bus segments and grounded bus segments.
● The maximum number of nodes per bus segment decreases with each RS 485 repeater.
This means that when a bus segment contains an RS 485 repeater, the bus segment can
contain no more than 31 additional nodes. However, the number of RS 485 repeaters does
not affect the maximum number of nodes on the bus.
● Up to 10 segments can be connected in a row (max. 9 repeaters).
● At least one terminator must be supplied with 5 V.
To accomplish this, the PROFIBUS DP connector with an activated terminating resistor
must be connected to a device that is switched on.
● Before inserting a new node on the subnet, you must switch off its supply voltage.
The station must be inserted first and then switched on.
When a station is disconnected, the connection must first be deactivated and then the
connector withdrawn.
● The bus line of a segment must be terminated at both ends. This is achieved by switching
on the terminating resistor in the PROFIBUS DP connector at the first and last node and
switching off the other terminating resistors.

4.9.7 Operating interface X21 as an MPI
Applications
The X21 interface can also be operated as an MPI interface instead of a PROFIBUS DP
interface. The typical (default) baud rate is 187.5 Kbaud. A baud rate of up to 12 MBaud can be
set for communication with other CPUs. It should be noted, however, that a rate of 12 MBaud
is not supported by all CPUs (e.g. smaller SIMATIC S7 CPUs).
The following list provides examples of when using MPI (multi-point interface) may prove
effective:
● If a PC/PG is being used with an MPI interface
● If an OP/TP only has an MPI interface
(newer devices have PROFIBUS or PROFINET interfaces)
● If SIMOTION and SIMATIC CPUs are coupled via XSEND/XRECEIVE
SIMOTION D410-2
Connecting
When communicating with XSEND/XRECEIVE, there is no need to configure the connection in

NetPro. XSEND/XRECEIVE can be used via PROFIBUS or MPI.
● Via PROFIBUS: For communication between SIMOTION devices
● Via MPI: For communication between SIMOTION and SIMATIC S7 devices
The SIMOTION interface must be connected to the MPI interface of the SIMATIC S7
devices. Connection via PROFIBUS is not possible.
The baud rate of the SIMATIC S7 device must be set at the SIMOTION interface (see
documentation for the relevant SIMATIC S7 devices).
Operate MPI like PROFIBUS

The information on wiring the connector (terminating resistors) and the rules for routing of
cables for PROFIBUS apply to this interface as well. When carrying out this procedure, consult
the relevant references.
Connector features
The bus connector is used to connect the MPI bus cable to the MPI interface (X21). This
enables you to establish connections to additional nodes (e.g. PG or SIMATIC S7-CPU).
You will find an overview of the bus connectors available for order in the SIMOTION D410-2
Manual, Chapter "Spare parts and accessories".
MPI bus cable

The PROFIBUS cable specifications apply here as well;
Please note the relevant information on setting up an MPI network.
Setting up an MPI network

Keep in mind the following basic rules when setting up an MPI network:
● When using interface X21 as an MPI interface, it is not possible to arrange additional control
for a drive in isochronous mode or to connect distributed I/Os to this interface.
● An MPI bus line must be terminated at both ends. This is achieved by activating the
terminating resistor in the MPI connector in the first and last station and deactivating the
other terminating resistors.
● At least one terminator must be supplied with 5 V.
This means that an MPI connector with an activated terminating resistor must be connected
to a device that is switched on.
● Spur lines (cables leading from the bus segment to the station) should be as short as
possible, that is, < 5 m in length. Unused spur lines should be removed wherever possible.
SIMOTION D410-2
Connecting
4.10 Connecting PROFINET IO components (D410-2 DP/PN only)
● Every MPI station must be connected to the bus first and then activated.
To disconnect the station, it must first be deactivated. Then, the station can be removed
from the bus.
● Maximum cable lengths:
– 200 m per bus segment
– 2,000 m total length with RS 485 repeaters
Note
You can also use intelligent DP slave functionality for PROFIBUS communication between
CPUs.
4.10.1 Wiring PROFINET
Procedure
As standard, a SIMOTION D410-2 DP/PN has a PROFINET IO interface with two ports.
Suitable PROFINET cables and connectors must be used for the PROFINET connection. The
autocrossing functionality of the PROFINET interface means crossed as well as uncrossed
cables can be used.
Mixed operation of IRT and RT

For mixed operation of IRT and RT, note that the IRT-capable devices must form a so-called
IRT domain, i.e. there must not be any non-IRT devices on the data transmission link between
the IRT devices.

4.11 Connecting Ethernet
Wiring Ethernet
An Industrial Ethernet can be connected to the 8-pin RJ45 socket X127 P1.
The interface supports a transmission rate of 10/100 Mbit/s. Suitable Ethernet cables and
connectors must be used for the Ethernet connection.
A shielded twisted pair cable is used for the networking.
Note
The Ethernet interface supports PROFINET basic services and therefore has the designation
PN/IE. These PROFINET basic services (e.g. DCP, LLDP, SNMP) provide uniform functions
for the address assignment and diagnostics, but do not provide PROFINET IO communication
for the connection of drives, I/O modules, etc.

4.12 Routing
The autocrossing functionality of the Ethernet interface means crossed as well as uncrossed
cables can be used.
Autocrossing
Per default, the Ethernet interface is set to "Automatic setting" in HW Config, so that
autocrossing is available. The settings can be found in the port properties (X127 P1) in the
module rack of HW Config.
Autocrossing is deactivated with "Manual setting". As the Ethernet interface of the D410-2 is
wired as Ethernet terminal, in this case you must use crossed cables for the networking with a
PG/PC or another D410-2.
If the communication peer has autocrossing (e.g. PC, switch or hub), crossed and uncrossed
cables can be used.
For further information about the cables and connectors, see
the Industrial Communication IK PI Catalog.
4.12 Routing
Routing describes the cross-network transfer of information from Network x to Network y.
4.12.1 Routing on SIMOTION D
Routing between the different interfaces

SIMOTION D410‑2 supports S7 routing between the following interfaces:
● Between Ethernet interface X127 and PROFIBUS interfaces X21 and X24 (X24 only
available on D410‑2 DP)
● Between Ethernet interface X127 and PROFINET interface X150 (only available on
D410‑2 DP/PN)
● Between PROFINET interface X150 and PROFIBUS interface X21 (only available on
D410‑2 DP/PN)
Each combination of Ethernet interface X127 and PROFINET interface X150 represents a
separate IP subnet.
All ports of the X150 PROFINET interface belong to the same IP subnet.
IP routing from IP subnet to IP subnet is not supported. You can use an external IP router for
this.
Below is a list of the options available for connecting a PG/PC or HMI device to a SIMOTION D
using S7 routing.

4.12.2 Routing on SIMOTION D (SINAMICS integrated)
S7 routing to the internal PROFIBUS on SINAMICS Integrated

All SIMOTION D have an integrated SINAMICS drive control. In order to be able to access drive
parameters, the message frames must be routed from the external SIMOTION D interfaces to
the internal PROFIBUS DP. S7 routing can be used to access the integrated PROFIBUS. Here,
the internal PROFIBUS DP forms a separate subnet. This must be especially taken into
account for the communication to several routing nodes.
Further information about routing and the differences between IP and S7 routing can be found
in the SIMOTION Communication System Manual.
SIMOTION D410-2
Connecting
4.13 Connecting an external encoder
Connecting the connecting cable

Use only shielded cables to connect an external encoder to the encoder interface (X23). The
shielding must be connected with the metallic or metallized connector housing.
We recommend that bipolar encoders are used. When using unipolar encoders, the unused
negative track signals can either be connected or connected to ground. This results in different
switching thresholds.
See SIMOTION D410-2 Manual, Section "Encoder interface (HTL/TTL/SSI)".
The pre-assembled connecting cables offer optimal noise immunity as well as sufficiently
measured cross-sections for the supply voltage of the external encoder.
The connecting cables are available in various lengths, see NC 60 Catalog.
Procedure for connecting encoders

To connect an external encoder (HTL, TTL or SSI encoder), proceed as follows:
1. Connect the connecting cable to the encoder.
2. Plug the D-Sub connector (15-pin) to the socket X23.
3. Lock the connector using the finger screws.
NOTICE
Destruction of the encoder electronics
Operation of a 5 V encoder on the 24 V encoder supply may result in the destruction of its
electronic components!
Make sure that you can operate the connected encoder on a 24 V power supply (e.g. HTL
encoder). This setting can be set in the expert list of the drive in parameter p0400 and in the
following parameters.

5.3 Checking the system
Procedure
Check the final installed and wired system one more time before it is switched on, Observe the
safety-relevant items of the following checklist.
Checklist ✓
Have you observed all ESD measures when handling the components?
Have all screws been tightened to their specified torque?
Have all connectors been properly inserted and locked/screwed?
Are all components grounded and have all shields been attached?
Have you taken the load capacity of the central power supply into consideration?
5.4 Switching on the power supply
Switching on the external power supply

Power is supplied to the SIMOTION D410‑2 via an external power supply unit, e.g. via a SITOP
power supply. In exceptional cases, the SIMOTION D410-2 can also be supplied via the Power
Module in blocksize format, see Section "Power supply" in the SIMOTION D410-2 Manual.
Switch on this power supply.
NOTICE
SIMOTION D410‑2 shuts down if the power supply is interrupted
It is essential to ensure that the external 24 VDC power supply to the SIMOTION D410‑2 is not
interrupted for longer than 3 ms. After a longer interruption, the SIMOTION D410‑2 shuts
down and can only be restarted with OFF/ON.
You will find further information in Section Properties of the user memory (Page 72).
Power-up of Control Unit

Once the power supply has been switched on, the SIMOTION D410‑2 begins to power up:
1. At the start of the power-up, all LEDs are briefly illuminated in yellow for a short LED test.
The LEDs on the SIMOTION D410‑2 enable you to track the progress of the power-up. Any
errors are displayed.
2. Startup of the SIMOTION Kernel.
SIMOTION D410-2
5.5 Performing a reset
3. All DRIVE-CLiQ connections (with SINAMICS Power Module, for example) are identified
automatically.
Note
As long as the RDY LED continues to flicker, power-up is not complete and it is not possible
to go online.
During commissioning the firmware of the components is upgraded or downgraded
automatically based on the FW version on the CF card and the FW version on the
SINAMICS components (DRIVE‑CLiQ components, Power Modules, etc.).
The update can take several minutes and its progress is tracked by corresponding
messages appearing in the alarm window of SIMOTION SCOUT.
SIMOTION D410‑2 / DRIVE‑CLiQ components:
A FW update on the SIMOTION D410-2 is indicated by yellow flashing and for DRIVE-CLiQ
components by red-green flashing of the RDY LED:
● FW update running: RDY LED flashes slowly (0.5 Hz)
● FW update complete: RDY LED flashes quickly (2 Hz), POWER ON required
Components requiring POWER ON following a firmware update signal this by means of the
fast flashing RDY LED. Go offline with SCOUT and switch the 24 V supply to the relevant
components off/on (POWER ON) to initialize.
4. The first time it is switched on, the SIMOTION D410‑2 goes into STOP state following power-
up.
Following power-up, the SIMOTION D410‑2 is in a state in which it can be configured.
Fan
SIMOTION D410-2 has an integrated fan. This fan is always required for operation.
Fan faults as well as overtemperature of the module are signaled by a system variable,
PeripheralFaultTask and a diagnostic buffer entry .
5.5 Performing a reset

The RESET button is located behind the blanking cover on the SIMOTION D410‑2.
The entire system is reset when the RESET button is pressed and a new power-up of the
system forced. This operation is comparable with a "Power on Reset" but does not require the
disconnection of the 24 V power supply.

The SIMOTION Kernel (SIMOTION D firmware, including SINAMICS Integrated Firmware)

contains the functions required for virtually all applications, and essentially acts as a PLC with
the command set in accordance with IEC 61131-3 as well as system functions for controlling
various components, such as inputs and outputs.
The SIMOTION Kernel can be expanded by loading technology packages (TPs), e.g. for
motion control or temperature controllers.
In the following sections, you will find information about the user memories and the steps
involved in certain operations.
SIMOTION D410-2
5.6.2 Properties of the user memory
Non‑volatile data
Non‑volatile data makes it possible to retain relevant data for the user and the system even
when the SIMOTION D410‑2 has been switched off. Information about the area which can be
used for non-volatile data is available in the SIMOTION D410‑2 Manual, section "Technical
Data".
A SIMOTION device has the following non‑volatile data:
Table 5-1 Non‑volatile data contents
Non-volatile data Content

Kernel data ● Last operating state
● IP parameters (IP address, subnet mask, router address)
● DP parameters (PROFIBUS DP address, baud rate)
● Diagnostic data (diagnostics buffer,...)
Retain variables ● Variables in the interface or implementation section of a unit declared with
VAR_GLOBAL RETAIN
● Global device variables with the "RETAIN" attribute
Retain TO Absolute encoder offset
DCC blocks SAV blocks and user-defined blocks with retain behavior ("SAV = SAVE",
blocks for the non-volatile data backup).
NVRAM (SINAMICS) For the SINAMICS Integrated and for the SINAMICS S120 CU310-2/
CU320-2, data protected against loss at power failure is called NVRAM data
or non-volatile data.
Note
DCC SIMOTION blocks with retain behavior act like retain variables in terms of copying RAM
to ROM, resetting memory, downloading, backing up non‑volatile SIMOTION data
(_savePersistentMemoryData) and backing up data.
With DCC SINAMICS blocks, data buffering is only via NVRAM. SINAMICS data is not saved
with _savePersistentMemoryData. The non-volatile SINAMICS data (NVRAM data) is backed
up by setting the CU parameter p7775 to 1.
For further information on DCC, see the DCC Programming Programming Manual.
SIMOTION D410-2
The non-volatile data of the SIMOTION D410‑2 has the following properties:
Table 5-2 Non-volatile data and real-time clock properties
Properties Non‑volatile data Real-time clock (RTC)

Location Non-volatile data is located in the NVRAM The real-time clock is backed up
of the SIMOTION D410-2. maintenance-free via a SuperCap.
Back-up battery No No
Backup time There is no maximum backup time At least 5 days
If the buffer time is exceeded on the real-time clock, the time is reset.
CF card
With the _savePersistentMemoryData system function, the user program can back up the
contents of the non‑volatile SIMOTION data to the CF card. This ensures that the retain
variables and the absolute encoder position are backed up in the event that a spare part is
used.
For the SINAMICS Integrated and SINAMICS S120 CU310-2/CU320-2, the non-volatile
SINAMICS data (NVRAM data) is backed up by setting the CU parameter p7775 to 1.
Note
IP and DP parameters in the non-volatile data
If the CF card contains a configuration, the IP and DP parameters are loaded from the CF card
during ramp-up and used by the SIMOTION device. The SIMOTION D410‑2 uses the
addresses defined in these parameters to go online. During ramp-up, the IP and DP
parameters on the CF card are also written to the non‑volatile data. If the SIMOTION device is
then powered up with a CF card with no configuration, the IP and DP parameters are retained
in the non‑volatile data and are used by the device. Thus, the SIMOTION device can continue
to go online if a configuration was loaded with SIMOTION SCOUT at least once or if the
SIMOTION device is powered up with a CF card containing a configuration.
The CF card contains the following data:

● SIMOTION Kernel (SIMOTION D firmware)
● Technology packages (TP)
● User data (units, configuration data, parameter settings, task configuration)
● IP parameters (IP address, subnet mask, router address)
● DP parameters (PROFIBUS DP address, baud rate)
It may also contain:
● User data saved with _savePersistentMemoryData and _export/_saveUnitDataSet
● Non-volatile SINAMICS data (NVRAM data) of the SINAMICS Integrated backed up with
CU parameter p7775 = 1
SIMOTION D410-2
● Data from SIMOTION IT

● Archived SCOUT project
Volatile SIMOTION data (RAM / current data RAM)

The volatile SIMOTION data is defined by the following properties:
● The volatile SIMOTION data is located in the RAM memory of the SIMOTION device.
● The download data of SIMOTION SCOUT is written to this memory.
● This data is lost when the SIMOTION D410‑2 is switched off.
● The "volatile SIMOTION data" area contains the following data:
– SIMOTION Kernel (D410‑2 firmware)
– Technology packages (TP)
– User data (programs, configuration data, parameter settings)

SIMOTION SCOUT download

The following data is transferred with "Load project to target system" or "Load CPU / drive unit
to target device" from the engineering system to the "volatile SIMOTION data" area:
● Technology packages (TPs)
In addition, the IP and DP parameters are saved to the "non-volatile SIMOTION data" area. The
retain variables are set to their initial values, but this depends on the settings in SIMOTION
SCOUT. If the SIMOTION D410‑2 is switched off following the download, the volatile
SIMOTION data is lost.
Copy RAM to ROM

The Copy RAM to ROM menu command saves the following data via the engineering system
to the CF card:
● Technology packages and user data (units, configuration data, parameter assignments,
task configuration) from the "volatile SIMOTION data" area.
● Current values are copied to the "volatile SIMOTION data" area, depending on the settings
in SIMOTION SCOUT.
Note
The "Copy RAM to ROM" menu command does not save the current values of the retain
variables to the CF card. Use the system function "_savePersistentMemoryData" for this.
Note
The "Copy RAM to ROM" function is also available for drive units and saves the volatile
SINAMICS data to the non-volatile memory (CF card).
Current RAM
If you change the system variable values, these take immediate effect in the current RAM. New
configuration data values are initially stored in the Next memory. Configuration data that take
immediate effect are automatically transferred to the current RAM. Configuration data that will
only become active following a RESTART on the technology object (set the restartactivation
system variable to the ACTIVATE_RESTART value) is not written to the current RAM until after
the RESTART.
To save the configuration data changed online to the offline project, you must first transfer the
content of the current data RAM to the RAM using the menu command "Target system" > "Copy
current data to RAM".
Once you have done this, the configuration in SCOUT will no longer be consistent with the
configuration in the target device, as a consistency check is performed on the RAM data. Read
the data from the RAM using the menu command "Target system" > "Load" > "Load CPU / drive
unit to PG" (for the configuration data only) to re-establish a consistent system state.
SIMOTION D410-2
Use the "Target system" > "Copy RAM to ROM" menu command to save the configuration to
the non-volatile memory on the CF card.
Note
The "Copy current data to RAM" command does not transfer the values of the system variables
to the RAM memory. This means that "Save to memory card (Copy RAM to ROM)" or "Save in
the engineering project (Load CPU / drive unit to PG)" is not possible.
In order to ensure that system variable values can also be saved to the engineering project and
memory card, the system variable values must be changed OFFLINE and then downloaded to
the target device and saved.
SIMOTION D410‑2 power-up

During power-up of the SIMOTION D410‑2, the SIMOTION Kernel is loaded from the CF card
to the "volatile SIMOTION data" area.
When the SIMOTION D410‑2 is switched off, the contents of the "volatile SIMOTION data" area
are lost. When the unit is powered up again, the following data is loaded from the CF card:
● Technology packages and user data to the "volatile SIMOTION data" area.
● IP and DP parameters to the "non-volatile SIMOTION data" area.
Backing up non-volatile SIMOTION data

You have the following options for backing up non-volatile SIMOTION data on the CF card:
● In the user program:
With the "_savePersistentMemoryData" system function, the user program can back up the
non-volatile SIMOTION data content to the CF card. This ensures that the retain variables
and the absolute encoder position are backed up in the event that a spare part is used. The
contents are saved to the "PMEMORY.XML" backup file in the "USER\SIMOTION"
directory.
● Via switch/button (service selector switch or DIAG button of the SIMOTION D410‑2) or
SIMOTION IT web server. See Section Diagnostic data and non-volatile SIMOTION data
(Page 282). The contents are saved to the "PMEMORY.XML" backup file in the "USER
\SIMOTION\HMI\SYSLOG\DIAG" directory.
On the system side, this system function ensures that a consistent overall image of the non-
volatile SIMOTION data is always available the next time the unit is switched on, even if there
is a power failure during backup. An already existing backup file is renamed to
"PMEMORY.BAK" before a new backup file is generated. If the save operation to the new
backup file fails (e.g. because the capacity of the CF card is insufficient), this backup copy of
SIMOTION D410-2
the backup file is used the next time an attempt is made to restore the non-volatile SIMOTION
data content.
NOTICE
Loss of data due to failure to make backup copies
Non-backed-up non-volatile SIMOTION data can be lost on hardware replacement (module
defect), for example, if the current value of the retain variables have not been backed up and
replaced by their initial values again.
Back up the non-volatile SIMOTION data on the CF card.
NOTICE
Repeat referencing necessary after absolute encoder overflow
If an absolute encoder overflow occurs after _savePersistentMemoryData, the actual position
value is no longer correct after the non-volatile SIMOTION data is restored.
In this case, homing (absolute encoder adjustment) must be repeated.
With the SCOUT functions "Save variables" and "Restore variables," you also have the option
of backing up to your PC and restoring data that was changed during operation and only stored
in the runtime system.
Reloading non‑volatile SIMOTION data

SIMOTION data backed up on the CF card with _savePersistentMemoryData is reloaded in the
following scenarios:
1. After a module replacement, see Section Replacing modules in the spare part scenario
(Page 81)
2. After a memory reset, see Section SIMOTION D410-2 memory reset (Page 215)
3. Via switch position, see Section Delete/restore non-volatile SIMOTION data (Page 288)
Reloading non‑volatile SINAMICS data

For the SINAMICS Integrated and SINAMICS S120 CU310-2/CU320-2, as of SINAMICS FW
version V4.5, the non-volatile SINAMICS data (NVRAM data) is backed up by setting the CU
parameter p7775 to 1.
Restoring
● Is performed automatically in the event of a module replacement
A module replacement is detected on the basis of the serial number.
● Can be performed manually
Restoring can be initiated manually by setting the CU parameter p7775 to 2.
For further information, see Section Backing up / restoring / deleting SINAMICS NVRAM data
(Page 159).
SIMOTION D410-2
Power failure
If a power failure occurs, the real-time clock is buffered by means of an internal SuperCap.
The non-volatile data is backed up on the D410‑2 permanently and maintenance-free in an
NVRAM. In this way, the Control Unit is immediately ready for operation without data loss after
a power failure.
Power-up and non-volatile SIMOTION data

The table below lists the cases that can arise during power-up in conjunction with the non-
volatile data and explains how they are handled.

Requirement/availability of the battery

System variables can be used to evaluate:
● Whether a battery is required for the operation of the device (or not)
● Whether a battery is available (or not)
SIMOTION D410-2 has no battery.
Table 5-7 System variable batterynecessary/batteryexisting

5.6.4 Replacing modules in the spare part scenario
SIMOTION module replacement

During a module replacement, a CF card that contains the non-volatile SIMOTION data backed-
up with _savePersistentMemoryData, is inserted in a new device of the same type.
A module replacement is detected by the SIMOTION D410-2 on the basis of the serial number.
The data backed up on the CF card with _savePersistentMemoryData are then automatically
transferred to the new device.
Note
As an additional option, you can back up the non-volatile data by switching the service selector
switch, with the DIAG button, or via SIMOTION IT web server. For details, see
Section Diagnostic data and non-volatile SIMOTION data (Page 282).
Initial power-up with the CF card

This requires a CF card on which no device serial number is stored.
If the SIMOTION D410-2 powers up successfully with a new CF card, the serial number of the
device is stored on the CF card. In this case, a module replacement cannot be detected.
Note
The serial number stored on the CF card remains unaffected by the following actions:
● Copy RAM to ROM
● Project download
● Writing the CF card via the SCOUT function "Load to file system"
● FW/project update via device update tool
If the CF card contents are copied to another CF card, the serial number is also copied. A serial
number stored on the CF card can only by removed by deleting the CF card contents.
SIMOTION D410-2
SIMOTION D410-2 power-up with the CF card (no module replacement)

Prerequisite is that the same CF card and the same device are used.
If the SIMOTION device powers up successfully, the serial number stored on the CF card is
compared with the serial number of the device.
If the serial numbers are identical, there has been no module replacement.
The device powers up. In the non-volatile data present in the device is valid, this will be used
(for details, see Table 5-3 Power‑up scenarios for non‑volatile SIMOTION data (Page 78)).
SIMOTION D410-2 power-up with the CF card (module replacement)

Prerequisite is that the same CF card and a different device (e.g. replacement because of a
defect) are used.
If the device powers up successfully, the serial number stored on the CF card is compared with
the serial number of the device.
If the serial numbers are not identical, there has been a module replacement.
This means:
● The serial number of the new module is stored on the CF card.
● The non-volatile SIMOTION data are deleted in the device.
● A diagnostic buffer entry is issued which signals that a module has been replaced.
● The non-volatile SIMOTION data stored on the CF card is transferred to the device (for
details, see Table 5-3 Power‑up scenarios for non‑volatile SIMOTION data (Page 78)).
NOTICE
Irrevocable data deletion due to incorrect CF card with stored device serial number
A module replacement is detected only on the basis of the changed serial number.
Inserting the wrong CF card with saved device serial number has the following consequences:
● The non-volatile data on the device is permanently deleted.
● The IP/DP address set in the device is deleted. You can no longer go online via the IP/DP
address set originally.
Make sure that the correct CF card is inserted into the SIMOTION D410‑2.
Error scenarios
In the event of an error, a diagnostic buffer entry signals that it was not possible to determine
whether a module has been replaced. This may have the following reasons:
● The serial number of the device cannot be determined.
● The serial number saved on the CF card cannot be determined (e.g. due to a corrupt file
system).
● The controller has not powered up.
● The new serial number could not be transferred to the CF card (e.g. due to a corrupt file
system).
SIMOTION D410-2
5.7 Fan
Restart after reloading

The system variable device.startupData.operationMode is used to define whether the
SIMOTION D410-2 Control Unit goes into the RUN state or the last operating state after a
power-on/restart.
Possible values of device.startupData.operationMode:
● LAST_OPERATION_MODE [0] (default setting)
The module remains in the STOP operating state after reloading the non-volatile SIMOTION
data and must be switched manually to the RUN state with SCOUT, the web server, or the
mode switch .
● RUN [1]
The module goes automatically into the RUN state after reloading.
SINAMICS module replacement

A module replacement is detected as of SINAMICS V4.5.
For the SINAMICS Integrated and SINAMICS S120 CU310-2/CU320-2, a module replacement
is also identified via the serial number.
Non-volatile SINAMICS data (NVRAM data) backed up previously via the CU parameter p7775
= 1 on the CF card, is then automatically transferred to the Control Unit.
5.7 Fan
5.7.1 Cooling the SIMOTION D410-2
Overview
A fan is always required for operation of the SIMOTION D410-2. This is included in the scope
of delivery of the D410-2 control unit. The fan operates temperature-controlled and is switched
on depending on the air intake temperature and the CPU load.
Fan faults
Fan faults are indicated as follows:
● Entry in diagnostic buffer
● Indicated via system variable
● Calling the PeripheralFaultTask
If a fan fault occurs or the fan is unplugged, the module continues to run. The controller goes
into FAULT state when overtemperature occurs (temperature threshold 2 exceeded), whereby
all LEDs flicker red. The state can only exited through power off/on
For further information on the evaluation of fan faults, see Section Overview of fan states
(Page 84).
SIMOTION D410-2
5.7 Fan
5.7.2 Overview of fan states
Evaluation of fan faults

SIMOTION D410-2 has a single fan.
Fan faults are detected through a cyclic fan test or when a malfunction is determined when the
fan is activated (fan does not rotate or fan rotates at too low a speed).
Fan faults are signaled by the following diagnostic buffer entry:
Fan on the module is defective.
The states that can occur during operation are described in the following.

The "YES" value must be reset to "NO" by the application.
Requirement for/presence of a fan

System variables can be used to evaluate:
● Whether a fan is required for the operation of the device (or not)
● Whether a fan is installed (or not)

1) Value is statically set to MANDATORY/SINGLE in the SIMOTION D410-2.
SIMOTION D410-2 only detects an unplugged fan indirectly.

The system variable fanexisting has statically the state SINGLE for the SIMOTION D410-2 . If
the module temperature increases to impermissible values due to a fan having been
unplugged, the module signals overtemperature.
The fan speed is available in system variable _cpuData.fanRpm as of V4.4.
You will find detailed information on setting up Taskstartinfo (#TSI) in the SIMOTION Runtime
Basic Functions Function Manual.
5.7.3 Response to overtemperature

Operation at overtemperature reduces the module service life and can result in damage to the
module.
Causes
Cause of problems in the heat dissipation of the module can be, for example:
● Violation of the maximum permissible air intake temperature
● Free convection is not ensured (clearances are not maintained, pollution, convection is
prevented by cables)
● Impermissible mounting position of the module
Temperature thresholds
The internal module temperature is monitored via two module-specific temperature thresholds:
● Overtemperature is signaled when the first (lower) temperature threshold is exceeded.
● When the temperature falls below the first temperature threshold again (minus a hysteresis
of approx. 5° C), "Normal temperature" is signaled.
● When the second (higher) temperature threshold is exceeded, the module goes into the
FAULT state to protect itself.
SIMOTION D410-2

Behavior of SINAMICS Integrated

If the internal temperature of the SIMOTION D410‑2 exceeds the permissible limit value, the
following warning message is displayed:
A1009: CU warning: Control unit overtemperature
The warning message will be cleared as soon as the fault is rectified and the temperature falls
below the maximum permissible limit.
The behavior for overtemperatures in the power unit as well as possible STOP responses for
the SIMOTION D410‑2 corresponds to the behavior for a SINAMICS S120 CU310‑2.

PROFIBUS DP is an international, open field bus standard specified in the European field bus
Standard EN 50170 Part 2. PROFIBUS DP is optimized for high-speed, time-sensitive data
transfer at field level.
SIMOTION D410-2
Components communicating on PROFIBUS DP are classified as master and slave

components.
● Master (active bus device)
Components that represent a master on the bus define data transfer along the bus, and are
therefore known as active bus nodes.
Masters components are divided into two classes:
– DP master class 1 (DPMC1):
Central master devices are thus designated, which exchange information with the slaves
in specified message cycles.
Examples: SIMOTION D410-2 DP, C240, P350, SIMATIC S7, etc.
– DP master class 2 (DPMC2):
These are devices for configuration, commissioning, and operator control and
monitoring while the bus is in operation.
Examples: Programming devices, operator control/monitoring devices
● Slaves (passive bus nodes):
These devices may only receive, acknowledge and transfer messages to a master when so
requested.
Examples: SINAMICS drives, I/O modules
Functions on PROFIBUS DP
The functional scope can differ between DP masters and DP slaves. The functional scope is
different for DP-V0, DP-V1 and DP-V2.
These functions on the PROFIBUS DP are characterized by:
● Configurable, equidistant, isochronous PROFIBUS DP cycle
● Synchronization of slaves by the master by means of a global control message frame in
each cycle clock
● Independent maintenance of the isochronous cycle clock by the slaves in the event of a
short-term communication failure.
You will find additional information about PROFIBUS DP in the SIMOTION Communication
System Manual.
SIMOTION D410-2
6.3.2 Operating SIMOTION D410-2 on PROFIBUS DP
PROFIBUS DP interfaces (X21, X24)

For connection to PROFIBUS DP, the SIMOTION D410‑2 DP has two interfaces (X21 and X24)
and the SIMOTION D410‑2 DP/PN has one interface (X21).
D410-2 DP D410-2 DP/PN

Transmission rates up to 12 Mbits/s are possible. Interfaces X21 and X24 can both be operated
isochronously.
Alternatively, the X21 interface can be used as an MPI interface with a transmission rate of 19.2
kbit/s up to 12 Mbit/s, see Section Configuring the MPI bus (Page 106).
In the delivery condition, PROFIBUS DP interfaces X21 and X24 are both preset as a master
with address 2 and a transmission rate of 1.5 Mbit/s. The PROFIBUS DP network is
automatically detected and generated for this setting.
However, other settings can also be configured. This requires that you configure the network
manually using HW Config and NetPro.
Note
Communication with the SINAMICS Integrated of a SIMOTION D410-2 is always equidistant.
Here, the SIMOTION D410-2 is the master and the SINAMICS Integrated drive is the slave.
SIMOTION D410‑2 DP master-slave configuration

Master-slave configurations can be used, for example, to establish hierarchical PROFIBUS
networks that can be used to implement a modular machine concept.

SIMOTION D410-2
6.3.3 Assigning PROFIBUS addresses in HW Config
Assigning PROFIBUS addresses

Assign a PROFIBUS address to all devices before you start networking these in order to enable
intercommunication.
Note
Before you assign any PROFIBUS addresses, please remember that all addresses must be
unique on the PROFIBUS subnet.
Define the PROFIBUS address separately for each device with the PG/PC in HW Config.
Certain PROFIBUS DP slaves are equipped with an address switch.
Note
The PROFIBUS addresses set at the devices using these switches must correspond with the
address settings in HW Config.
Recommendation for PROFIBUS addresses

Reserve PROFIBUS address "0" for a service PG and "1" for a service HMI device which are
connected to the subnet as required.
Recommended PROFIBUS address setting for SIMOTION D410-2 in case of replacement or
service:
Reserve address "2" for a SIMOTION D410-2. This prevents duplicate addresses when
installing a SIMOTION D410-2 with a default setting on the subnet (e.g. when a
SIMOTION D410-2 is replaced). Assign addresses higher than "2" to any additional devices on
the subnet.
6.3.4 Setting the DP cycle and system cycle clocks
Adapting the DP cycle of SINAMICS Integrated

SINAMICS Integrated serves as the basis for all cycle clocks of a SIMOTION D410‑2 under the
following circumstances:
● SIMOTION D410‑2 DP: Always
● SIMOTION D410‑2 DP/PN: Only if no synchronized data exchange takes place via the
PROFINET interface (see also Section Setting a send cycle clock and system cycle clocks
(Page 111)).
SIMOTION D410-2
To set the DP cycle of the SINAMICS Integrated, double-click the SINAMICS drive on the
integrated PROFIBUS. The "DP Slave Properties" dialog box opens. You can synchronize the
DP cycle of SINAMICS Integrated in the "Isochronous mode" tab.
Table 6-3 SIMOTION D410-2 value range
DP cycle ≥ 0.5 ms (DP internal

)≥ 1 ms (DP external)
Grid 0.125 ms
(the use of a clock grid ≥ 0.250 ms is recommended)
External DP interfaces can only be operated with a DP cycle of ≥ 1 ms.

SINAMICS Integrated always runs in isochronous mode. The cyclic tasks of SIMOTION are
therefore always in synchronism with SINAMICS Integrated.
The set DP cycle of SINAMICS Integrated is displayed as "Bus data cycle" in the "System Cycle
Clocks - D410" dialog box in SIMOTION SCOUT. Select the SIMOTION D410‑2 in the project
tree, and then select the "Set system cycle clocks" option in the "Target system" > "Expert"
menu.
The table below shows the ratios you can set for the system cycle clocks of SIMOTION D410‑2
based on the bus cycle clock.
Table 6-4 Ratios of system cycle clocks
Servo cycle clock1) : Bus cycle IPO cycle clock: Servo cycle clock IPO2 cycle clock: IPO cycle
clock clock
1 ... 4, 8 1…6 2 … 64
1)
When using the TO axis and the integrated drive control, the minimum servo cycle clock is 1 ms.
Note
The following statements relate to a SIMOTION D410‑2 DP with 2 DP interfaces (X21/X24).
The statements are equally applicable to a SIMOTION D410‑2 DP/PN with only one DP
interface (X21).
In addition, if the DP interfaces (X21/X24) are configured as equidistant master interfaces, you
must set both DP cycles equal to the bus cycle clock of the SINAMICS Integrated in HW Config.
If the DP interfaces (X21/X24) are operated as the master, the system cycle clocks are obtained
from an internal cycle clock of the module.
Of the two DP interfaces (X21/X24), no more than one can also be operated as an isochronous
slave interface. In this case, the system cycle clocks are obtained from the cycle clock of the
slave interface. As a result, the task system of SIMOTION and SINAMICS Integrated runs
synchronously to the slave cycle clock. This assumes that a slave cycle clock exists and
synchronization with the slave cycle clock has been achieved. If this is not the case, the system
cycle clocks are acquired from an internal replacement cycle clock.
When the project is downloaded, the cycle clock configuration is downloaded to the
SIMOTION D410‑2 and automatically set according to the specifications.
SIMOTION D410-2
Also observe the cycle clock setting rules in Section Rules for cycle clock settings with
SIMOTION D410-2 DP (Page 100).
6.3.5 Rules for cycle clock settings with SIMOTION D410-2 DP

The rules for making SIMOTION D410‑2 DP cycle clock settings are described below.
For SIMOTION D410‑2 DP/PN, see Section Rules for cycle clock settings with SIMOTION
D410-2 DP/PN (Page 115).
Rules for adjusting system cycle clocks in the case of SIMOTION D410‑2 DP
You must conform to the following rules when setting the DP cycle and SINAMICS Integrated
cycle clocks:
1. The DP cycle must be an integer multiple of the current controller cycle.
2. The master application cycle (Tmapc), which corresponds to the servo cycle, must be an
integer multiple of the speed controller cycle. The smallest-possible Tmapc thus results from
the smallest common multiple of the DP cycle and the speed controller cycle.
If the master application cycle = 1, it follows that the DP cycle is also an integer multiple of
the speed controller cycle.
3. The DP cycle must be an integer multiple of the basic cycles r0110[x] (DRIVE-CLiQ basic
sampling rates).
You can determine parameter r0110[x] using the expert list in SIMOTION SCOUT (select
the "Control_Unit" from "SINAMICS_Integrated" in the project navigator, and then open the
"Expert list" by selecting the "Expert" command from the shortcut menu).
Note
An overview of errors reported by the SINAMICS Integrated is provided in the SINAMICS S
List Manual.
Dependencies of SINAMICS cycle clocks

The general rule for SIMOTION D410‑2 DP is that the DP cycle serves as the basic cycle clock
for the task system. All SIMOTION clock cycles (servo, IPO, IPO_2, etc.) longer than this basic
cycle clock must be an integer multiple of the basic cycle clock.
This rule also applies to SINAMICS Integrated cycle clocks, if one of the successive cycle
clocks is longer than the basic cycle clock:
● Speed controller p0115[1] (drive)
● Flow controller p0115[2] (drive)
● Setpoint channel p0115[3] (drive)
● Position controller p0115[4] (drive)
● Positioning p0115[5] (drive)
● Technology controller p0115[6] (drive)
SIMOTION D410-2
● Onboard I/O p0799[0…2] (Control Unit)

● Terminal module I/O p4099
The corresponding cycle must be an integer multiple of the basic clock (DP cycle).
If any change to the DP cycle violates this rule you must also change the SINAMICS cycle
clocks. In order to change the cycles in the Expert list of SIMOTION SCOUT, select the
"Control_Unit" or the "Drive" from "SINAMICS_Integrated" in the Project Navigator, and then
open the "Expert List" by selecting the "Expert" command from the shortcut menu.
If p0115 sampling times are required which cannot be set using p0112 > 1, then you can directly
set the sampling times using p0115. This requires that p0112 must be set to "0" (expert).
If p0115 is changed online, the values of the higher indices are adapted automatically.
Note
At the SINAMICS end, there are further rules for setting the sampling times. You will find these
described in the SINAMICS S120 Function Manual, Section Rules for setting the sampling time.
Example
A default value of 4 ms is set for the SINAMICS Integrated setpoint channel p0115[3]. If the DP
cycle is to be set to 3 ms, the fact that an integer multiple value is required means that you will
need to set 3 ms or 6 ms (for example) for the setpoint channel.
Incorrect cycle clock setting

If the SINAMICS cycle clocks are not set correctly, this can be seen by the following messages:
● A01223 CU: Sampling time inconsistent and/or
● A01902 PB/PN isochronous operation parameterization impermissible and/or
● F01043 severe error downloading project
● F01951 CU SYNC: Synchronization application cycle clock missing
In this case, check the cycle clock settings on all drive objects signaling this error. For F01951,
check the DP cycle. In this case, use a DP cycle that is a multiple of 0.25 ms or 0.5 ms.
Note
An overview of errors reported by the SINAMICS Integrated is provided in the SINAMICS S List
Manual.
SIMOTION D410-2
Current controller cycle clock

With the SIMOTION D410-2, the following current controller cycle clocks p0115[0] can be
configured for the SINAMICS Integrated:
● for servo: 125 μs (default) or 250 μs
● For vector and vector V/f:
– For blocksize Power Modules: 250 μs or 500 μs (default)
– For chassis Power Modules: 375 μs.

6.3.6 Cycle clock scaling of external PROFIBUS interface to internal PROFIBUS

interface
Definition
Cycle clock scaling means that an external PROFIBUS interface of the SIMOTION D410‑2 DP
(X21/X24) or SIMOTION D410‑2 DP/PN (X21) can be operated in an integer multiple of the
internal PROFIBUS interface. This reduces the CPU load, thereby allowing you to operate
more axes, for example. The settings of the scaled cycle clocks for the external DP interfaces
are made in HW Config.
Supplementary conditions
The following supplementary conditions are applicable to cycle clock scaling:
● An external DP interface of the D410‑2 is used as an isochronous slave interface. Only in
this case can an integer cycle clock scaling of isochronous external DP slave interface to
internal interface be specified. This is checked during compilation and an error message is
output in the event of noncompliance. If the external DP interfaces are configured as
equidistant interfaces but none are configured as slaves and cycle clock scaling is specified
for these interfaces, an error is output during compilation.
● For SERVO, IPO, and IPO2, settings can also be made for all permissible cycle clocks.
Master and slave axes can run in different IPO levels. Different cycle clocks and phase
offsets are tolerated by the system.
Note
The IPO cycle clock of the IPO in which the synchronous operation technology object runs
must be set equal to the cycle clock of the isochronous external DP slave interface.
SIMOTION D410-2
● The second external DP interface of a SIMOTION D410‑2 DP can be operated as an

isochronous master (while the other is an isochronous slave) in order to operate external
drives, for example. In this case, the cycle clock must be the same as the cycle clock of the
internal PROFIBUS DP. If this condition is not satisfied, an error message is output during
compilation.
● One or both external DP interfaces can also be operated as non-isochronous, free-running
interfaces. In this case, there is no effect on the cycle clock settings.
Application example
The system consists of a synchronous master (DP master) and at least one
SIMOTION D410‑2 DP synchronous slave (DP slave). The synchronous master contains the
master axis; the synchronous slave contains the following axes:
● The axes in the SINAMICS Integrated of the D410‑2 DP synchronous slave must exhibit
high performance with a servo cycle clock of 1.5 ms and an internal DP cycle of 1.5 ms. This
requires that the internal fast PROFIBUS DP be decoupled from the slower external
PROFIBUS DP.
● The PROFIBUS DP has, for example, a cycle time of 6 ms due to the quantity framework on
the bus; in all cases, its cycle time exceeds that of the cycle clock of the internal DP interface.
● The master values are transmitted via the DP bus. Further nodes can also be connected to
the DP bus, e.g. DP drives, distributed I/O, etc.

6.3.7 Creating a new PROFIBUS DP subnet

SIMOTION SCOUT is used to network the SIMOTION D410‑2. Set up your user-specific bus
parameters for the PROFIBUS DP interfaces when you configure the network.
Note
If a hardware configuration is loaded without a PROFIBUS network being configured on the
CPU, a new PROFIBUS address that was previously set in HW Config or NetPro will not be
accepted by the CPU.
Requirement
You have created a project and have inserted a SIMOTION D410‑2.
Note
The actions outlined below only need to be taken if you have not selected an interface when
integrating the SIMOTION D410-2 into the project (see Section Creating a project and
configuring the communication (Page 87)).
Next the connection to the PG/PC must be established via NetPro, refer to:
● Section Configuring the PROFIBUS PG/PC interface (Page 89)
● Section Configuring the Ethernet PG/PC interface (Page 91).
Procedure
To create a new PROFIBUS subnet, proceed as follows:
1. Double-click the "D410-2" entry in the project navigator in order to open HW Config.
2. In the SIMOTION D410‑2 representation, double-click the DP interface for which you want
to create a PROFIBUS subnet.
The "Properties - DP/MPI" dialog box opens.
3. Click "Properties" in the "General" tab to open the "PROFIBUS Interface DP/MPI" dialog
box.
4. Click "New" to open the "Properties - New PROFIBUS Subnet" dialog box.
5. Name the new subnet and enter the properties of the new subnet, e.g. transmission rate, on
the "Network settings" tab.
6. If the PROFIBUS interface is to be operated isochronously, click "Options". Activate the
"Activate isochronous bus cycle" option in the opened dialog box and set the DP cycle.
Confirm the settings with "OK" to exit the "Options" dialog box.
7. Accept the settings in the "Properties - New PROFIBUS Subnet" dialog box with "OK".
The new subnet is now displayed in the "Properties - PROFIBUS Interface DP/MPI" dialog
box. You can now connect the new subnet to the corresponding PROFIBUS interface.
Follow the same steps to configure the second PROFIBUS interface for a SIMOTION
D410‑2 DP.
8. Save and compile the changes.
SIMOTION D410-2
The PROFIBUS subnet you created is displayed as a graphic object in HW Config.
Note
PROFIBUS DP functionality is both equidistant and isochronous in nature. As such, it can
guarantee that bus cycles will have exactly the same length and ensures deterministic behavior.
Applications: Connecting drives or synchronized I/O devices.
For further information, see the SIMOTION Runtime Basic Functions Function Manual, Section
"Isochronous I/O processing on fieldbus systems".
6.3.8 Establishing a PG/PC assignment
Introduction
A PG/PC is required to create projects for a SIMOTION D410‑2 and download them to the
target device. The interface via which the PG/PC can be connected is polled during the
automatic communication configuration. If you change these settings, you must reestablish the
active designation of the PG/PC in NetPro (the PG/PC connection must appear yellow and bold
in NetPro).
Procedure
1. Open the project in SIMOTION SCOUT.
2. Click the "Open NetPro" button.
NetPro is accessed, and the configured network is graphically displayed. The PG/PC
connection to the configured network is shown in bold in a color other than yellow.
3. Double-click the PG/PC you would like to configure.
The "Properties - PG/PC" dialog will be displayed with the "Assignment" tab in foreground.
4. Select the interface in the "Assigned" field and activate S7ONLINE access by clicking the
appropriate checkbox.
5. Click "OK" to accept the settings.
The PG/PC connection to the configured network is displayed again in bold and yellow.
6. Save and compile the changes and download them to the SIMOTION D410‑2.
Now you can go online again via the PG/PC.
Alternatively, you can make the assignment in SIMOTION SCOUT by clicking the "Assign
PG/PC" button. This calls the properties window for PG/PC assignment, where you can modify
the assignment and "activate" it (S7ONLINE access).
SIMOTION D410-2
6.4 Configuring the MPI bus
6.4 Configuring the MPI bus
6.4.1 Operating interface X21 as an MPI

The X21 interface can also be operated as an MPI interface.
The typical (default) baud rate is 187.5 Kbaud. A baud rate of up to 12 MBaud can be set for
communication with other CPUs. It should be noted, however, that a rate of 12 MBaud is not
supported by all CPUs (e.g. smaller SIMATIC S7 CPUs).
The following list provides examples of when using MPI (Multi Point Interface) may prove
effective:
● If a PC/PG is being used with an MPI interface
● If an OP/TP only has an MPI interface (newer devices have PROFIBUS or PROFINET
interfaces)
● If SIMOTION and SIMATIC CPUs are coupled via XSEND/XRECEIVE
Note
When the X21 interface is used as an MPI bus, additional activation of a drive on this interface
is not possible.
For general information on MPI, see the SIMOTION Communication System Manual.
6.4.2 MPI parameters
MPI bus addresses and data transmission rate

Every node on the MPI bus must have a bus address in the range 0 to 31.
The data transmission rate on the MPI bus can be set to any value for the SIMOTION D410‑2.
Communication attempt unsuccessful

If communication cannot be established at all, or if it cannot be established with individual
nodes on the MPI bus, check the following:
● Is the transmission rate setting for the SIMOTION D410‑2 used for all nodes?
● Are there any loose plug connections?
● Are all bus segments terminated properly?
Bus segments that are not terminated properly will disrupt communication on the MPI bus.
SIMOTION D410-2
6.5 Configuring PROFINET IO
6.5.1 General information about communication via PROFINET IO
Communication cycle
In PROFINET, the communication cycle is subdivided into different, time-specific intervals. The
first interval is used for isochronous real‑time communication (IRT), followed by real‑time
communication (RT) and standard TCP/IP communication. The bandwidth reservation for IRT
ensures that RT communication and standard communication have no effect on the
transmission of IRT telegrams, which are important for motion control applications.
The following figure shows how the PROFINET communication cycle is divided into
isochronous real-time communication (IRT), real-time communication (RT), and standard TCP/
IP communication.

Figure 6-6 PROFINET communication cycle
Isochronous real-time Ethernet

STEP 7 can be used to configure PROFINET devices supporting data exchange via
isochronous real-time Ethernet (IRT). IRT telegrams are transferred deterministically via
planned communication paths in a defined sequence to achieve the best possible synchronism
and performance.
IRT requires special network components supporting a planned data transfer.
Isochronous operation and mode

Equidistant mode and isochronous mode function similarly in PROFINET IO to the way they
function in PROFIBUS DP.
For PROFIBUS DP, in isochronous operation all nodes are synchronized using a Global
Control Signal created by the DP master.
SIMOTION D410-2
In PROFINET IO with IRT, a sync master generates a signal to which sync slaves synchronize
themselves. Sync master and sync slaves belong to a sync domain which is assigned a name
via configuration. The role of the sync master can in principle be played by an I/O controller as
well as an I/O device. A sync domain has exactly one sync master.
Context: Sync domain and I/O systems

An important fact is that sync domains do not need to be limited to one PROFINET IO system:
The devices of several I/O systems can be synchronized by a single sync master, provided they
are connected to the same Ethernet subnet.
The following applies the other way around: An I/O system must only belong to a single sync
domain.
Signal propagation delays not negligible

For the extremely exact synchronization interval, line lengths, namely the associated delay
times, must be taken into consideration. You can use a topology editor to enter the properties
of the lines among the ports of the switches. STEP 7 uses this data and the other configuration
data to calculate the optimized process of the IRT communication and the resulting updating
time.
IRT runs in parallel to real-time and TCP/IP communication

Apart from IRT communication, for which a defined bandwidth is reserved within the update
time, RT communication and TCP/IP communication are also permitted within the update time.
With RT communication (real-time communication), the cyclic data is transferred between I/O
controller and I/O device, but without "best possible synchronism".
With non-synchronized I/O devices, data is exchanged automatically via RT communication.
Due to the fact that TCP/IP communication is also possible, other data, e.g. non-real-time data,
configuration data or diagnostic data, can be transported.
PROFINET IO controller
Typically, the function of a PROFINET IO controller is taken on by controllers (e.g. SIMOTION
C/P/D, SIMATIC S7 CPUs, ...).
The PROFINET IO controller takes on the master function for I/O data communication of the
distributed field devices. The function is comparable to a PROFIBUS DP master class 1.
PROFINET IO device
Distributed field devices such as I/Os, drives (e.g. SINAMICS S120) or operator terminals are
designated as IO devices. The function is comparable to a PROFIBUS DP slave.
SIMOTION D410-2
Addressing
In the delivery condition, the onboard PROFINET IO interface does not have an IP address or
a subnet mask.
Note
The IP addresses 192.168.215.240 to 192.168.215.255 are reserved for internal
communication in the SIMOTION D410‑2 (subnet mask 255.255.255.240). When configuring
the PROFINET interface (X150), make sure that the internal addresses are not located within
the network of this interface. In IP, the network is defined as an AND link of IP address and
subnet mask.
Media redundancy (MRP)

Requirement: SIMOTION V4.4.
It is possible to establish redundant networks via the Media Redundancy Protocol (MRP).
Redundant transmission links (ring topology) ensure that an alternative communication path is
made available when a transmission link fails. The PROFINET devices that are part of this
redundant network form an MRP domain.
MRP guarantees media redundancy in the event of a problem in the ring. The switchover of the
ring is performed by the Redundancy Manager.
The switchover times depend on:
● The actual topology
● The devices used and
● The network load in the relevant network
The typical reconfiguration time of the communication paths for TCP/IP and RT frames in the
event of a fault is < 200 ms.
In most systems, the switchover time of MRP is far above the PROFINET update time for cyclic
data, so that a failure for cyclic data is detected. The PROFINET connection therefore fails and
is reestablished after the switchover by the Redundancy Manager. In this way, an error can be
corrected in the network, while the system continues to run with bumps.
Note
During the interruption of the ring, as well as when correcting the interruption (e.g. repair of the
defective cable), there is a brief failure of the communication.
Ring ports
A SIMOTION/SINAMICS device may only be inserted in an MRP ring as a node with MRP-
capable ports. For SIMOTION D, the first two ports of the PROFINET IO interfaces are
designed as ring ports.
SIMOTION D410-2
These two ports are marked with an "R" in the module rack in HW Config.
Note
Only devices with MRP-capable ports may be inserted in an MRP ring. If MRP-capable ports
are not used, the reconfiguration times can be in the seconds range.
Bumpless media redundancy (MRPD)

Requirement for SIMOTION D410-2:

MRPD is a procedure for bumpless media redundancy for PROFINET IO with IRT. MRPD also
requires MRP.
The combination of MRP with MRPD provides bumpless PROFINET operation for short cycle
times in the event of a fault in the ring. MRPD is based on IRT and ensures bumpless operation
by the provider sending the cyclic data in both directions which the consumers then receive
twice. If the ring is interrupted at one position (e.g. through the failure of a ring node), receipt of
the cyclic data via the problem-free side of the ring is still guaranteed.
Bumpless media redundancy MRPD always requires the activation of MRP in the individual
rings.
A maximum of two Ethernet nodes may be between the sync master and the redundant sync
master. If the redundant sync master is used together with MRPD, it is recommended that the
redundant sync master be connected directly to the sync master and the two nodes located in
a shared cabinet so that the cable connection between both nodes is protected.
If there is an interruption in the link between the sync master and the redundant sync master,
the system continues to run without bumps, but after switching off and on again faults can occur.
Too high a network load or too-rapid coming and going of faults can also result in unfavorable
cases in the failure of the PROFINET connection with activated MRPD because of delayed or
incomplete switchover actions of MRP/MRPD.
For example, with two consecutive faults at different points in the ring, bumpless operation is
only ensured when there is approx. three seconds between the two faults.
You will find additional information about media redundancy in the SIMOTION Communication
System Manual.

6.5.2 Setting a send cycle clock and system cycle clocks
Requirement
The SIMOTION system cycle clocks (servo/IPO/IPO_2) are based on the
SINAMICS Integrated DP cycle or the PROFINET send cycle clock, depending on the
PROFINET real-time class and the type of data transfer. The cycle clock source can be
generated "internally" by the SIMOTION D410‑2; otherwise, it is obtained "externally" from the
clock signals received at the PROFINET interface.

Setting the DP cycle in HW Config

To set the DP cycle of the SINAMICS Integrated, double-click the SINAMICS block on the
integrated PROFIBUS in HW Config.
The "DP Slave Properties" dialog box opens. You can adjust the DP cycle of the SINAMICS
Integrated on the "Isochronous mode" tab. See also Setting DP Slave properties
(Page 151).

SIMOTION D410-2
If, in addition to the drive on the SINAMICS Integrated, external drives are also to be connected
via isochronous PROFIBUS, the DP cycle must be ≥ 1 ms.
Setting the send cycle clock in HW Config

The send cycle clock for PROFINET IO must be set in the "Domain Management" dialog
in HW Config. To do this, select the "Edit" > "PROFINET IO" > "Domain management ..." menu
command in HW Config and set the desired cycle clock.
The PROFINET interface can be operated with a send cycle clock in the range of: 0.25 ms ≤
send cycle clock ≤ 4 ms. The smallest configurable time base is 0.125 ms.
Note
Information for version < V4.4
If there are IO devices with RT class "RT" in a sync domain, it is only possible to set the send
cycle clocks 0.5 ms, 1 ms, 2 ms, and 4 ms.
Cycle clock scaling

The PROFIBUS cycle clock can be scaled down in relation to the servo cycle clock. The
reduction ratio is only permitted when PROFINET IO with IRT has not been configured. A
reduction ratio for the PROFINET send cycle clock to the PROFIBUS cycle clock is also
possible.
Example:
PROFINET send cycle clock = 0.5 ms
PROFIBUS cycle clock = servo cycle clock = 1 ms
The PROFIBUS cycle clock can be operated relative to the PROFINET send cycle clock at a
ratio of 1:1 to 16:1.
The table below shows which ratios you can set for the system cycle clocks of the
SIMOTION D410‑2 DP/PN based on the DP cycle of SINAMICS Integrated or on the
PROFINET send cycle clock.

6.5.3 Properties of PROFINET
Properties
The onboard PROFINET IO interface supports the parallel operation of:
● IRT - isochronous real-time Ethernet
– Operation of IRT I/O (e.g. ET 200SP)
– Operation of a SINAMICS S120 as an IRT device
● RT - real-time Ethernet
– Operation of RT I/O (e.g. ET 200SP, ET 200pro, etc.)
– Operation of a SINAMICS S120 as an RT device
● TCP/IP, UDP, HTTP, … standard Ethernet services
Note
For mixed operation of IRT and RT, make sure that the IRT-compatible devices form what is
referred to as an IRT domain; i.e. there must not be any non-IRT devices on the data
transmission link between the IRT devices.
You will find an overview of the specific properties of PROFINET IO on SIMOTION D in
the SIMOTION Communication System Manual.
6.5.4 Configuration tasks

Configuration of PROFINET involves the following steps:
1. Insert the SIMOTION D410‑2 DP/PN.
2. Configure the onboard PROFINET IO interface in HW Config.
3. Create a topology: Here, you specify how the individual ports of the PROFINET IO devices
are interconnected.
4. Configure the sync domain: Here, you specify which PROFINET nodes are sync masters
(clock generators) and sync slaves.
5. Specify the send clock: Describes the time during which a PROFINET IO device exchanges
user data with the PROFINET IO controller.
6. Configure the direct data exchange: The direct data exchange specifies which address
areas are to be used for sending and receiving respectively.
SIMOTION D410-2
You will find a detailed description of each configuration step in Section "Configuring
PROFINET IO with SIMOTION" of the SIMOTION Communication System Manual.
6.5.5 Rules for cycle clock settings with SIMOTION D410-2 DP/PN
The rules for making SIMOTION D410‑2 DP/PN cycle clock settings are described below.
For SIMOTION D410-2 DP, see Section Rules for cycle clock settings with SIMOTION D410-2
DP (Page 100).
Rules for using the PROFINET send cycle

If the PROFINET send cycle clock is the basis for the cycle clocks, ensure that the DP cycle and
the servo cycle clock are the same. This applies to PROFIBUS interface X21 and the
PROFIBUS of the SINAMICS Integrated.
The basis for the system clocks is generated internally if the PROFINET interface is not
operated with RT class IRT or if IRT is set and no data is being transferred. This also applies
if the PROFINET interface is operated as synchronization master with RT class IRT and data
is being transferred. The SIMOTION device does not have to synchronize itself with an external
cycle.
The basis for system clocks is derived from the clock signals received at the PROFINET
interface if this interface is operated as synchronization slave with RT class IRT. The
SIMOTION device does not have to synchronize itself with this external clock.
A substitute clock of a duration equivalent to the configured clock is generated internally if the
PROFINET interface has not received a clock signal.
The clock settings are included in the project download to the SIMOTION device and are
adjusted according to specification.
Dependencies of SINAMICS cycle clocks

The rule for SIMOTION D410‑2 DP/PN in the case of synchronized data traffic is that the send
cycle clock serves as the basic cycle clock for the task system. All SIMOTION clock cycles
(servo, IPO, IPO_2, etc.) longer than this basic cycle clock must be an integer multiple of the
basic cycle clock.
This rule also applies to SINAMICS cycles, if one of the successive cycles is longer than the
basic clock:
● Speed controller p0115[1] (drive)
● Flow controller p0115[2] (drive)
● Setpoint channel p0115[3] (drive)
● Position controller p0115[4] (drive)
● Positioning p0115[5] (drive)
● Technology controller p0115[6] (drive)
SIMOTION D410-2
● Onboard I/O p0799[0…2] (Control Unit)

● Terminal module I/O p4099
The corresponding cycle must be an integer multiple of the basic clock.
If any change to the send cycle violates this rule you must also change the SINAMICS cycles.
In order to change the cycles in the Expert list of SIMOTION SCOUT, select the "Control_Unit"
or the "Drive" from "SINAMICS_Integrated" in the Project Navigator, and then open the "Expert
List" by selecting the "Expert" command from the shortcut menu.
If p0115 sampling times are required which cannot be set using p0112 > 1, then you can directly
set the sampling times using p0115. This requires that p0112 must be set to "0" (expert).
If p0115 is changed online, the values of the higher indices are adapted automatically.
Note
At the SINAMICS end, there are further rules for setting the sampling times. You will find these
described in the SINAMICS S120 Function Manual, Section Rules for setting the sampling time.
Example
A default value of 4 ms is set for the SINAMICS setpoint channel p0115[3]. If the send cycle is
to be set to 3 ms, the fact that an integer multiple value is required means that you will need to
set 3 ms or 6 ms (for example) for the setpoint channel.
Incorrect cycle clock setting

If the SINAMICS cycle clocks are not set correctly, this can be seen by the following messages:
● A01223 CU: Sampling time inconsistent and/or
● A01902 PB/PN isochronous operation parameterization impermissible and/or
● F01043 severe error downloading project
● F01951 CU SYNC: Synchronization application cycle clock missing
In this case, check the cycle clock settings on all drive objects signaling this error. For F01951,
check the DP Integrated cycle. In this case, use a DP Integrated cycle that is a multiple of 0.25
ms or 0.5 ms.
Note
An overview of errors reported by the SINAMICS Integrated is provided in the SINAMICS S List
Manual.

6.6 Configuring an Ethernet subnet
Current controller cycle clock

With the SIMOTION D410‑2, the following current controller cycle clocks p115[0] can be
configured for the SINAMICS Integrated:
● for servo: 125 μs (default) or 250 μs
● For vector and vector V/f:
– For blocksize Power Modules: 250 μs or 500 μs (default)

6.6.1 General information about communication via Ethernet
Properties of Ethernet
SIMOTION D410‑2 has an onboard Ethernet interface X127 P1 PN/IE.
You can connect an Industrial Ethernet with a transmission rate of 10/100 Mbit/s to the 8-pin
RJ45 socket X127 P1.
Note
The Ethernet interface supports PROFINET basic services. It therefore has the designation PN/
IE.
The Ethernet interface has autocrossing functionality.
Ethernet communication
SIMOTION D410‑2 offers the following functions via Industrial Ethernet:
● Communication with STEP 7, SIMOTION SCOUT and SIMATIC NET OPC via a PG/PC
● Communication via UDP (user datagram protocol) with other components, e.g. other
D410‑2 devices
● Communication with other devices via TCP/IP
● Connection of SIMATIC HMI devices or PC-based HMIs
● IT communication (e.g. via SIMOTION IT OPC XML‑DA)
SIMOTION D410-2
● Communication based on OPC UA (Unified Architecture)

● PROFINET basic services (e.g. DCP, LLDP, SNMP).
These PROFINET basic services provide uniform functions for the address assignment and
diagnostics, but do not provide PROFINET IO communication for the connection of drives
or I/O modules, for example.
Routing
S7 routing is possible from the Ethernet interface to the PROFIBUS interfaces and the
PROFIBUS Integrated.
You can find the MAC address on the rating plate located on the front of the SIMOTION D410-2.
For further information on routing, see the SIMOTION Communication System Manual.
Default Ethernet addresses

The following IP addresses are assigned by default for the Ethernet interface:
Table 6-8 IP address assignment for SIMOTION D410‑2
Interface Use case Default address

X127 P1 Insert SIMOTION device or IP address: 169.254.11.22

Automatic private IP address
Note
The IP addresses 192.168.215.240 to 192.168.215.255 are reserved for internal
communication in the SIMOTION D410-2 (subnet mask 255.255.255.240). When configuring
the external Ethernet interface (X127 P1), make sure that the internal addresses are not inside
their network. In IP, the network is defined as an AND link of IP address and subnet mask.
Note
If you want to go online via Ethernet, you have to make sure that the connection from PG/PC
to SIMOTION D410‑2 is active. You can check this in NetPro. You will find a description of how
to reactivate the connection in Section Establishing a PG/PC assignment (Page 105).
Automatic Private IP Addressing

The Ethernet interface supports the automatic IP assignment according to the Automatic
Private IP Addressing (APIPA) process.
SIMOTION D410-2
Interface X127 P1 already has IP address 169.254.11.22 in the delivery condition. Further
information on Automatic Private IP Addressing can be found on the Internet, e.g. in
WIKIPEDIA with the keywords APIPA or Zeroconf.
6.6.2 Configuring the Ethernet connection in HW Config

The Ethernet connection of the SIMOTION D410‑2 can be configured in HW Config.
Procedure
1. Open your project.
2. Open HW Config. Double-click the Ethernet port (X127 P1) to open the "Properties - PNxIE"
dialog box.
3. You can configure the Ethernet connection in the "Options" tab.
Recommendation: Use the default setting "Automatic setting". With Automatic setting, the
baud rate and duplex operating mode are automatically aligned with the connection partner.
The autocrossing functionality is also available so that you can use crossed and uncrossed
cables.
If transmission is to be set manually, not only must the connection (e.g. 10 Mbit/s half
duplex) be set manually but autonegotiation must also be deactivated.
4. Close the "Properties - PNxIE" dialog box with "OK".
5. Save and compile the modified hardware configuration.
6. Load the new hardware configuration to the SIMOTION D410‑2 via PROFIBUS DP/
Ethernet/PROFINET IO.
Shielded twisted pair cables are used for the networking. 4‑ and 8‑wire cables can be used for
10/100 Mbit/s.
Note
The TCP/IP timeout parameters are configured in HW Config by double-clicking the D410
module in the "Ethernet extended" tab.
For additional information, see the SIMATIC NET, Industrial Twisted Pair, and Fiber Optic
Networks Manual.
For further information about the cabling spectrum for Ethernet, see the Industrial
Communication IK PI Catalog.
SIMOTION D410-2
6.6.3 Configuring Ethernet addresses in HW Config
Requirement
For configuration using Industrial Ethernet, SIMOTION D410‑2 must be provided with an IP
address, the subnet mask and the router address.
Note
Only one router may be configured.
Procedure
To configure and transfer Ethernet addresses to the D410‑2, proceed as follows:
1. Open your project.
2. Open HW Config. Double-click the interface to be configured (X127) to open the
"Properties" dialog box.
3. On the "General" tab, click the "Properties" button of the Ethernet interface. The "Properties
- Ethernet Interface" dialog is displayed.
4. Click the "New" button. The "New Industrial Ethernet" subnet dialog is displayed. In this
dialog box, you can change the name of the new subnet or confirm the default setting with
"OK".
5. The newly created Ethernet subnet is now displayed under "Subnet" in the "Properties -
Ethernet Interface" dialog box and must be selected.
6. In this dialog box, enter the required addresses for "IP Address" and "Subnet". Under
"Router", choose whether a router is to be used. If using a router, enter the router address.
7. Confirm this dialog box with "OK".
8. Close the "Properties" dialog by clicking "OK".
9. Save and compile the modified hardware configuration.
10.Load the new hardware configuration to the SIMOTION D410‑2.
Assigning the Ethernet address later

It is possible to assign the IP address later on (e.g. on modular machines). In this case, an IP
address is not assigned in HW Config, but activated differently with the "Set IP address using
different method" option. The address will then be assigned later on the machine, for example,
by a the user program or by commissioning tools, such as PRONETA.
Further information on PRONETA can be found on the Internet:
● PRONETA: See Internet address (https://support.industry.siemens.com/cs/ww/en/view/
67460624)
SIMOTION D410-2
6.6.4 Reading out IP and MAC address
Requirement
To read out the IP and MAC addresses, the following requirements must be met:
● SIMOTION D410‑2 is wired.
● You have assigned the communication parameters.
● You are online.
Procedure
The IP address and MAC address of SIMOTION D410‑2 can be displayed as follows via
SIMOTION SCOUT.
1. Right-click the module.
2. Select "Target device" > "Device diagnostics" in the context menu.
Example
The addresses are displayed as follows for SIMOTION D410‑2:
X127 (IE)
● Active MAC Address: 08-00-06-73-25-3E
● IP address: 169.254.11.22
● Subnet mask: 255.255.0.0
● Standard gateway: 0.0.0.0.
As an alternative, you can determine the IP address as follows:

● By selecting "Project" > "Accessible nodes" in SIMOTION SCOUT
● By calling "Target system" > "Ethernet" > "Edit Ethernet node..." in HW Config and browsing
to "Online accessible nodes"
● Using the system function _getIpConfig
Note
The MAC address is listed on the nameplate on the front of the module.

7.1 Overview of commissioning
7.1.1 Requirements for commissioning

The requirements for commissioning the SIMOTION D410-2 are as follows:
● The system has been connected and wired.
● The SIMOTION D410-2 is switched on and powered up (STOP operating state).
● SIMOTION SCOUT (with integrated STARTER) has been installed and started on the PG/
PC.
● Communication between the SIMOTION D410-2 and the PG/PC is configured.
● You have created a project and installed a SIMOTION D410-2 in the project.
7.1.2 Symbolic assignment / adaptation
Symbolic assignment
SIMOTION supports the symbolic assignment on SINAMICS drive objects (DOs) during the
configuration of technology objects (TOs) and I/Os.
This simplifies the configuration of the technological relationships including the communication
between controller and drive.
With the symbolic assignment:
● Only suitable assignment partners are offered in an assignment dialog box.
● Communication between axis and drive is set up automatically by the engineering system
and the required PROFIdrive axis telegrams as well as the used addresses set up.
● Telegrams are extended and interconnections created automatically in the drive depending
on the selected TO technology (e.g. SINAMICS Safety Integrated).
● Axis and drive configuration are first performed independently.
● Communication connections are established automatically during the configuration of I/O
variables on SINAMICS I/Os (telegrams are set up automatically, the I/Os interconnected to
the telegram and the addresses set up).
SIMOTION D410-2
Commissioning (software)
Apart from the symbolic assignment, no further configuration is required for the communication.
As addresses no longer have to be configured, the connection is retained even with address
offsets.
Note
During the configuration of drive objects (DO drive, DO encoder, ...) as well as in the Telegram
Configuration dialog box (see Section Telegram configuration (Page 180)), you can deactivate
the automatic telegram configuration and the automatic telegram adaptation.
A deactivation should only be performed in justified exceptional cases because many of the
above mentioned benefits are lost.
The symbolic assignment enables an independent configuration of the axes on the SIMOTION
side and the drives on the SINAMICS side. This allows the following:
● The PLC and motion control functions can be completely configured by a programmer even
without drive know-how using technology objects (e.g. TO axis) and loaded to the device.
● The drives can be separately configured and optimized by a drive expert.
● The technology objects can be symbolically assigned later to the drive objects via an
interconnection dialog box.
Note
The previous methods of drive, axis and I/O configuration are still available. Symbolic
assignment must be deactivated for these methods.
For newly created projects, the symbolic assignment is used by default.
If projects < V4.2 are upgraded, the symbolic assignment is deactivated by default and must be
activated when required.
Symbolic assignment can be activated or deactivated in SIMOTION SCOUT via the menu
"Project" > "Use symbolic assignment."
Activating symbolic assignment later

Symbolic assignment is recommended and is automatically activated.
SIMOTION D410-2
Conversion from upgraded projects to symbolic assignment is possible, but this requires post-
editing of the project, especially for free telegram configurations (e.g. for TM15 DI/DO, TM31).
Note
If the symbolic assignment is activated later, previously existing telegram settings and BICO
interconnections for all SINAMICS telegrams that are set to Standard/Automatic
(Communication -> Telegram configuration) are replaced at the next compilation. This may
change telegrams and BICO interconnections and delete telegram extensions previously set
up manually.
For this reason, make a backup copy of your project before activating the symbolic assignment.
To retain the settings that have been made, after the selection of "Use symbolic assignment,"
the setting "User-defined" must be selected and the check box cleared for automatic telegram
setting/address adaptation for the respective message before compilation.
For further details, see the SIMOTION Runtime Basic Functions Function Manual.
Assigning a drive later

You can create an axis in SIMOTION SCOUT and assign it to a drive later. You can thus load
your user program to the controller and (with the exception of the non-existent drives) test it.
Compared to a procedure with temporarily created "virtual axes", "axes without assigned drive"
have the advantage that the configuration data is completely available and do not require a
"virtual axis -> real axis" reconfiguration.
Simulation of axes
You can also use the axis simulation to test the user program. You can find a script for switching
the axis simulation on and off in SIMOTION Utilities & Applications, which is part of the scope
of delivery of SIMOTION SCOUT.
Further details can be found in the TO Axis Electrical/Hydraulic, External Encoder Function
Manual.
Adaptation
In addition to the symbolic assignment, the automatic adaptation also facilitates the
configuration of SINAMICS S120 data. When SIMOTION devices ramp up, reference
variables, along with drive and encoder data for SINAMICS S120, are transferred automatically
for the configuration data of the SIMOTION technology objects "Axis" and "External Encoder".
This data no longer has to be entered in SIMOTION.
For additional information, see the following sources:
● SIMOTION Runtime Basic Functions Function Manual
● TO Axis Electrical/Hydraulic, External Encoder Function Manual
SIMOTION D410-2
Requirement
Symbolic assignment is supported by the TO axis, TO externalEncoder and the TO outputCam,
TO camTrack and TO measuringInput. The onboard I/Os of a SIMOTION D, of a
SINAMICS S110/S120 Control Unit, and selected Terminal Modules can be interconnected
symbolically.

7.1.3 Procedure when commissioning
Commissioning steps
This section shows you how to configure a system and test the configured drives and axes. The
steps in commissioning are listed below in the order as recommended:
1. Configuring SINAMICS Integrated
The integrated drive SINAMICS Integrated can be configured in offline or online mode:
– Performing an offline configuration (Page 128)
For offline configuration, all of the components and their article numbers must be known.
– Performing an online configuration (Page 145)
During online configuration, you can load all of the information from the connected
DRIVE-CLiQ components to your user project.
2. Test the configured drive using the drive control panel (Page 168)
3. Create an axis with the axis wizard (Page 171)
4. Test a configured axis with the axis control panel (Page 178)
5. Set up addresses and telegrams (Page 180)
6. Link an additional encoder (optional) (Page 184)
7. Configure drive-related I/Os (with symbolic assignment) (Page 191)
8. Configure technology objects and I/O variables (Page 196)
9. Optimize the drive and controller (Page 205)
When carrying out this procedure, consult the relevant references.
This section also contains additional configuration information, e.g. for vector drives, Safety
Integrated, etc.
7.1.4 Important functions for the project handling and for the commissioning
Below you will find an overview of the most important functions for project handling and for
commissioning with the associated icons.
Save project and compile changes

The entire project is saved and the project data (e.g. programs) compiled into an exe‐
cutable code.
Connect to selected target devices
The online connection is established to the selected target devices. Under "Target
system" > "Select target devices", you can set which target devices are to go online.
Download project to target system
The programs are loaded to the SIMOTION device as well as the configuration for the
SINAMICS Integrated.
SIMOTION D410-2
7.2 Performing an offline configuration
Download CPU / drive unit to target device

The configuration is only loaded to the device selected in the project tree which means
that the function needs to be performed separately for each D410-2 and SINAMICS
Integrated.
Load CPU / drive unit to PG
The unit's configuration is only loaded to the PG selected in the project tree which
means that the function needs to be performed separately for each D410-2 and SI‐
NAMICS Integrated.
Copy RAM to ROM
Copying from RAM to ROM is only performed for the device selected in the project tree
which means that the function needs to be performed separately for each D410-2 and
Note
Tips for going online:
In online operation, SIMOTION SCOUT attempts to conduct online operation with all hardware
components contained in the project. This means that the time needed for going online
increases.
We recommend that you make settings for SIMOTION SCOUT so that online operation is made
only with those components currently needed. The setting can be found at "Target system" >
"Select target devices ..." in the menu. The selection and deselection of the devices in the online
state can be made via the "Connect target device" context menu on the device.
This procedure is also advantageous when the configuration of the drive unit is completed.
Without going completely offline, the connection can be simply deselected via the context menu
on the drive unit.
7.2.1 Overview
Introduction
In the case of offline configuration, the project is created while not all of the hardware
components (in particular drives) are available. In this way, a SIMOTION project in the office
environment can be created up to a point where a basic project specification including a
program exists. At a later time, the finished project can be loaded to the SIMOTION D410-2 and
tested together with the drive.
SIMOTION D410-2
Requirements
● For offline configuration, all of the components and their article numbers must be known.
● You have created a project in SIMOTION SCOUT and inserted a SIMOTION D410-2 in the
project.
● You have configured the communication between the SIMOTION D410-2 and the PG/PC,
see Section Creating a project and configuring the communication (Page 87).
Procedure
The offline configuration involves the following steps:
● Accessing the drive wizard (Page 129)
● Configuring components (Page 130)
● Downloading the project to SIMOTION D410-2, by means of the following options:
– Downloading to the target system (Page 141)
– Downloading to the CF card (Page 142)
– Downloading incl. sources and additional data (Page 143)
– Archiving to the CF card (Page 144)
Note
During offline configuration, you can configure Terminal Modules such as the TM15, for
example.
7.2.2 Accessing the drive wizard
Integrated drive
SIMOTION D410-2 features an integrated SINAMICS S120 drive (control unit) which is
automatically included when you insert the SIMOTION D410-2 in the project navigator. The
integrated drive must be operated in isochronous mode using PROFIdrive-compliant telegram
types.
The drive wizard for the integrated STARTER in SIMOTION SCOUT is available for the
purpose of configuring the integrated drive and its associated modules (SINAMICS S120
Power Module, for example).
Note
Take note of all the necessary safety instructions and rules governing connections, which can
be found in the latest SINAMICS S120 documentation on the SIMOTION SCOUT DVD.
SIMOTION D410-2
Procedure
Select the "SINAMICS_Integrated" > "Configure drive unit" drive element in the project
navigator to open the drive wizard.
You can configure the following components:

Result
The drive has been assigned parameters and commissioned. You can now test the drive using
the drive control panel.
Note
Online access to SINAMICS Integrated is not possible if HW Config is not loaded at the time you
initially connect to the target system.
Download the data to HW Config in order to enable online access to SINAMICS Integrated.
Note
If you have deselected the "Drives" option under "Tools" > "Settings" > "Download" in
SIMOTION SCOUT, you must download the configuration separately to each drive (SINAMICS
Integrated).
To do this, select the drive (e.g. SINAMICS Integrated) in the project navigator and perform
"Download CPU / drive unit to target device".
To work quickly, we recommend that drives be generally deselected and a download only be
performed when required.
7.2.5 Loading a project created offline to the CompactFlash card
Procedure
You can use a card reader to write the entire project to the CF card, even in offline mode. In
SIMOTION SCOUT, you can call the "Load to file system" function in the context menu of the
SIMOTION device.

With "Load to file system", the project data of the controller (including SINAMICS Integrated)
is written directly to the CF card. Separate execution of "Load to file system" for the
SINAMICS Integrated is not possible.
Result
The SIMOTION D410-2 ramps up with the loaded project.
Note
The components' firmware is automatically updated, depending on the firmware version on the
SINAMICS components and on the CF card. During a firmware update, please take note of the
messages and alarms in the SIMOTION SCOUT detail window. A FW update on the
SIMOTION D410-2 is indicated by the RDY LED flashing yellow, while on the DRIVE-CLiQ
components (TM, SMC, etc.) it is indicated by the RDY LED flashing red/green.
Components that require a POWER ON after the firmware update will indicate this through a
rapidly flashing RDY-LED. Go offline with SCOUT and switch the 24 V supply off/on (POWER
ON) at the respective components for initialization.
7.2.6 Downloading the project incl. sources and additional data
Overview
It is possible to download additional data (e.g. sources) to the target device when saving a
project to the CF card or downloading to the SIMOTION D410‑2.
SIMOTION D410-2
These data are required for:

● Online object comparison (e.g. additional properties)
● Various detailed comparisons (e.g. ST source file comparison)
● Synchronization with online objects.
In order to be able to load a project's sources and additional data to the PG, this must be
specified in the project under "Options" > "Settings" > "Download" > "Store additional data on
the target device". Alternatively, this setting can also be made when the data is loaded to the
target device/target system.
You can, for example, perform a project comparison with the sources and additional data stored
on the CF card (see example below).
Project comparison (example)

You intend to perform servicing work on a commissioned system and have placed a project on
your PG/PC. This project is not consistent with the project on the SIMOTION D410‑2 cm the
system. In order to analyze the differences, perform an object comparison via "Start object
comparison".
You have the following options in terms of re-establishing consistency:
● In the object comparison, it is possible to establish consistency in sources and technology
objects on an object-granular basis.
● Consistency can be established for the entire Control Unit by loading from the CF card with
"Target system" > "Load" > "Load CPU / drive unit to PG...."
Detailed information on loading data to the target device can be found in the SIMOTION
Runtime Basic Functions Function Manual.
7.2.7 Archiving a project on the CompactFlash card (zip file)
Procedure
In SIMOTION SCOUT, you can save the project as a *.zip file to the CompactFlash card.

each time a change was made.
Detailed information on loading data to the target device can be found in the SIMOTION
Runtime Basic Functions Function Manual.
7.3.1 Overview
Introduction
You can configure the plant in online mode after having completed its wiring. You can use the
"Automatic configuration" function to load the SINAMICS components connected via DRIVE-
CLiQ to your PG/PC. However, this is only possible for initial commissioning.
Note
Components without DRIVE-CLiQ connection must be edited in offline mode. You may need to
edit DRIVE-CLiQ components which were detected in the course of automatic configuration
(for example, adding encoder data if using SMC modules).
Prerequisites for online configuration

● You have created a project in SIMOTION SCOUT and inserted a SIMOTION D410-2 in the
project.

To perform an online configuration, you must establish an online connection to the
SIMOTION D410-2. In this case, no connection can yet be established to SINAMICS
Integrated. An appropriate message is output. Once the hardware configuration has been
loaded to the target device, an online connection to the SINAMICS Integrated is established
automatically. Proceed as follows:
2. Establish an online connection.
3. Select the SIMOTION D410-2 device in the project navigator.
4. Use the "Download CPU / drive unit to target device" function to download the SIMOTION
D410-2 device to the target device. The connection to SINAMICS Integrated is activated
automatically.
You can now run automatic configuration on the SINAMICS Integrated. For details, see Section
Starting automatic configuration (Page 147).

switching off and on.
SIMOTION D410-2
Result
The DRIVE-CLiQ components loaded to the user project by means of automatic configuration
are displayed in the project navigator.
Figure 7-14 Project navigator with the downloaded DRIVE-CLiQ components
You must then

● If required, reconfigure SINAMICS components (e.g. components without a DRIVE‑CLiQ
interface, such as an encoder connected to the onboard encoder interface).
● Assign the "TO axis" to "Drive".
7.3.4 Reconfiguring SINAMICS components
Requirements
● You have uploaded all connected DRIVE-CLiQ components to the user project.
● You have shut down the connection to the target system (offline mode).
Procedure
Now go ahead and adapt your components to suit the application.
Run through the wizard for all the DRIVE‑CLiQ components to be adapted and perform the
required reconfigurations.
SIMOTION D410-2
This procedure corresponds to the description in Section Performing an offline configuration

(Page 128).
The amount of editing work involved depends on the components used. For example, in the
case of a motor with a DRIVE-CLiQ interface, the motor and encoder type are identified
automatically.
7.3.5 Downloading the project to SIMOTION D410-2
Procedure
After you have performed the reconfigurations, you must download the configuration to the
3. To load the project, perform "Download project to target system".
The data must also be saved on the CompactFlash card to ensure that the project is retained
in the event of a power failure. The following options are available:
– Perform the "Copy RAM to ROM..." function manually on the SIMOTION D410-2 and the
drive (SINAMICS Integrated).
– In the "Download to Target System" dialog box, select the option "After loading, copy
RAM to ROM". You can change the default setting for this dialog box in "Options" >
"Settings" > "Download".
4. To save the parameter calculations of the drive in the project, perform "Target device" >
"Load CPU / drive unit to PG" for the drive.
Result
The drive has been assigned parameters and commissioned. You can now test the drive using
the drive control panel.
Note
Online access to SINAMICS Integrated is not possible if HW Config is not loaded at the time you
initially connect to the target system.
Download the data to HW Config in order to enable online access to SINAMICS Integrated.
During the "Download to target system" process, SIMOTION SCOUT automatically attempts to
establish an online connection to SINAMICS Integrated.
SIMOTION D410-2
7.4 Additional information on configuring the SINAMICS Integrated
Note
If you have deselected the "Drives" option under "Tools" > "Settings" > "Download" in
SIMOTION SCOUT, you must download the configuration separately to each drive (SINAMICS
Integrated).
To do this, select the drive (e.g. SINAMICS Integrated) in the project navigator and perform
"Download CPU / drive unit to target device".
To work quickly, we recommend that drives be generally deselected and a download only be
performed when required.
7.4.1 Setting DP Slave properties
Settings in HW Config
Depending on the cycle clock ratios (bus cycle, servo cycle) and the drive used, it may be
necessary to adapt the properties of the DP slave (SINAMICS Integrated) on the PROFIBUS
Integrated.
Open HW Config. Double-clicking the SINAMICS Integrated enables you to display and, if
required, change the properties of the DP slave on the "Clock synchronization" tab. Possible
changes include:
● Synchronize drive to the equidistant DP cycle
The SINAMICS Integrated of a SIMOTION D410-2 can only be operated isochronously. For
this reason, this option cannot be deactivated.
● Changing the master application cycle (TMAPC)
The master application cycle must always be the same as the servo cycle clock set (setting:
in context menu of the D410-2 > "Set system cycle clocks" in the project tree).
Provided that the DP cycle is not scaled down to the servo cycle, the master application
cycle will always be the same as the DP cycle.
Note
The PROFIBUS cycle clock can be scaled down in relation to the servo cycle clock. Down-
scaling is only permitted if PROFINET IO with IRT has not been configured.
SIMOTION D410-2
● Changing the DP cycle (TDP)

Depending on the requirements in terms of the quantity structures and response times, the
DP cycle may need to be changed. (See also SIMOTION Runtime Basic Functions Function
Manual).
In addition, the minimum DP cycle for vector drives also depends on the speed controller
cycle clock, which in turn depends on the used device type. This means that, particularly in
the case of vector drives, the DP cycle must be checked and changed if necessary, see
Section Using vector drives (Page 153).
Note
After TDP has been changed on the PROFIBUS master, the drive system must be switched
on (POWER ON).
● Changing the TI and TO times

A change to TI/TO is required in the case of vector drives, for example, where the TI/TO time
for devices in chassis format depends on the type of device used.
Figure 7-15 HW Config setting
The times are modified by changing the value in the "Factor" field.
SIMOTION D410-2
SCOUT TIA
In order to parameterize the isochronous cycle clock for the PROFIBUS Integrated in the TIA
Portal, proceed as follows:
1. Select the PROFIBUS Integrated in the network view.
2. Select the "General" tab in the Inspector window and click "Equidistance" to display the
parameters for the isochronous PROFIBUS. The "Activate isochronous bus cycle" setting
is permanently selected and cannot be edited.
The other parameters are set to default settings and can be edited.
Additional information can be found
● In the SINAMICS S120 Function Manual
● SIMOTION Runtime Basic Functions Function Manual
● SIMOTION SCOUT TIA Configuration Manual
7.4.2 Using vector drives

Changes need to be made in HW Config when SINAMICS vector drives are used. This means,
for example, that the TI/TO time and the minimum DP cycle for drives in chassis format depend
on the type of device used.
Therefore, we recommend adopting the following procedure when using a vector drive with the
SIMOTION D410-2.
Procedure
1. Open HW Config. By "double clicking" the SINAMICS Integrated, you can change the
properties of the DP slave in the "Clock synchronization" tab.
2. For TI = TO =, enter an integer multiple of the current controller cycle. For the current
controller cycle clock, use 375 µs for devices in chassis format and 250 µs or 500 µs for the
blocksize devices (PM340, PM240-2).
3. For TDP, enter an integer multiple of the speed controller cycle. For a drive on the SINAMICS
Integrated, TDP must be >= TO in all cases.
4. Enter TMAPC = TDP (exception: You are working with cycle reduction; i.e. servo cycle > DP
cycle).
5. Use the "Target system" > "Load" > "Load project to target system" menu command to
download the parameterization to the SIMOTION D410-2.
SIMOTION D410-2
6. After the download has successfully completed, you should determine the current and
speed controller cycles of the drive from the drive's expert list, because the cycle clocks are
set in the SINAMICS drive unit after a project has been downloaded.
– p0115[0] current controller cycle clock
– p0115[1] speed controller cycle clock
7. If the current and speed controller cycles from the expert list are different to the cycles used
in steps 2 and 3, you will have to repeat the steps using the most up-to-date values for the
current and speed controller cycles.
Note
The described procedure is also required for an online configuration with an automatic
configuration.
Table 7-1 Vector drive
Example Settings
Vector drive (chassis format) TI = TO = at least 375 µs
Current controller cycle = 375 µs TDP = 1.5 ms (... or 3 ms, or 6 ms ....)
Speed controller cycle = 1.5 ms TMAPC = TDP
For the SIMOTION D410-2, a minimum of 1 ms is recom‐
mended for the servo cycle clock.
For this reason, set TMAPC = TDP = 3 ms or higher.
Vector drive (PM340/PM240-2) TI = TO = at least 500 µs
Current controller cycle clock = 500 µs TDP = 2 ms (… or 4 ms, 8 ms, …)
(default) TMAPC = TDP
Speed controller cycle = 2 ms
Blocksize Power Modules

Current controller cycle clock 500 µs (default)
The default current controller sampling time for SIMOTION D410‑2 with PM340/PM240‑2 is
500 µs. This current controller cycle is set automatically following project download if p0112 =
3 (default). The sampling times in p0115 are adapted automatically by the system following the
download; therefore, they may deviate from the offline values. The system also sets p0112 =
0 (expert) after the download.
Current controller cycle clock 250 µs (manual setting required)
If the current controller cycle clock for SIMOTION D410‑2 is to be changed from 500 µs (default)
to 250 µs, p0112 = 0 (expert) must be set.
SIMOTION D410-2
p0112 = 0 enables the individual sampling times to be adjusted in p0115. Moreover, with this
setting, the system does not change the current controller sampling time automatically.
Note
SIMOTION D410‑2 is a single-processor system. CPU utilization is, therefore, dependent on
the SIMOTION configuration (PLC and motion control) and the SINAMICS configuration (drive
control).
For more performance on the SIMOTION side, we recommend not setting any unnecessary
cycle clocks on the SINAMICS side.
400 µs current controller cycle clock

Vector drives in chassis format can also be operated with a current controller sampling time of
400 µs (amongst other settings).
In the SIMOTION context, the following should be considered:
● A current controller sampling time of 400 µs is only possible if control is via a
SINAMICS S120 Control Unit, which is not operated isochronously via PROFIBUS/
PROFINET on the SIMOTION D410-2.
● If the bus is operated isochronously, only cycle clocks with an integer multiple of 125 µs are
possible (i.e. 375 µs or 500 µs instead of 400 µs, for example).
● The PROFIBUS Integrated of a SIMOTION D410‑2 is always isochronous! This means that
a current controller sampling time of 400 µs is not possible.
● With CU parameter p0092 = 1, the sampling times are preassigned in a way that enables
isochronous operation with a control system.
Output cams / measuring inputs with vector drives

In the case of devices in chassis format, the cycle clock ratios (current controller cycle clock,
speed controller cycle clock, input/output sampling time, etc.) also depend on the type of device
used.
Note the information in Section Current controller cycle clocks <> 125 µs / use of output cams
and measuring inputs (Page 165).
Additional information on quantity structures and cycle clock settings can be found in
the SINAMICS S120 Function Manual.
SIMOTION D410-2
7.4.3 Setting the SIMOTION time of day
Time on SIMOTION (real-time clock)

SIMOTION D410-2 features an integrated real-time clock. All events on a module (alarms,
messages, etc.) are "time-stamped" based on the time shown by this real-time clock.
Procedure
Various options are available to set the clock of the SIMOTION D410-2:
● Setting the clock via the engineering system
– SIMOTION SCOUT: Select the SIMOTION D410-2 in the project tree and then "Target
system" > "Set time" in the menu.
– SIMOTION SCOUT TIA: Call the "Set time" function at "Online & diagnostics" in the TIA
Portal in the project tree.
● Setting the clock using the "rtc" system function block
● Synchronization of the local time with an NTP time server (as of V4.5)
The status of the NTP time synchronization can be determined with the
_getStateOfNTPClockSynchronisation system function.
For further information on the NTP process, see the SIMOTION Communication System
Manual and the SIMOTION SCOUT TIA Configuration Manual.
7.4.4 Synchronizing the SINAMICS clock
SINAMICS system runtime (operating hours counter)

For SINAMICS S120 Control Units and the SINAMICS Integrated on a SIMOTION D410-2,
faults and alarms are "time-stamped" on the basis of the system runtime. This means that
events are recorded by default on the basis of operating hours rather than a particular time of
day or date.
System runtime
The entire system runtime is displayed in CU parameter p2114.
● r2114[0] indicates the system runtime in milliseconds. After reaching 86,400,000 ms (24
hours), the value is reset.
● r2114[1] indicates the system runtime in days.
The counter value is saved when the power is switched off. After the drive unit has been
switched on, the counter continues to run with the value stored when the power was last
switched off.
As a result, the drive displays the system runtime from 00:00:00 on 01/01/1992 in both the
alarm window in SIMOTION SCOUT and the diagnostic buffer for entries.
SIMOTION D410-2
If faults and alarms need to be "time-stamped" on the basis of a time of day, "Time-stamp
operating hours" needs to be changed to "Time-stamp UTC format" as described below.
Requirements
A telegram 39x is required for the time synchronization. If the automatic PROFIdrive telegram
setting is selected for the Control Unit, this telegram is used automatically (see
Section Accessing the drive wizard (Page 129), Standard/Automatic setting).
If the telegrams are specified manually, telegram 39x must be set up. See Section Message
frame configuration (Page 180)
So that drive units can be synchronized with the SIMOTION time, they must support telegram
39x and the UTC (coordinated universal time) time format.
For precise time synchronization, the drive unit must also be operated via an isochronous bus
on SIMOTION.
The SINAMICS Integrated with SIMOTION D is always connected isochronously.
The following Control Units support time synchronization:
● SINAMICS Integrated of the SIMOTION D410‑2
● SINAMICS S120 CU310, CU310‑2, CU320, CU320‑2 Control Units connected via
PROFIBUS or PROFINET
● SINAMICS S110 Control Units CU305, connected via PROFIBUS or PROFINET
(precondition: as from SCOUT V4.4)
Procedure
Proceed as follows to convert the SINAMICS clock to UTC format and to synchronize this with
the SIMOTION clock:
1. In the project navigator, call the shortcut menu of the SIMOTION D410‑2.
2. Select the "Properties" entry in the context menu.
3. Select the "Perform time synchronization with SINAMICS drive units" option in the
"Settings" tab of the "D410‑2 Properties" dialog box.
Note
This setting is activated automatically and applies to all drive units connected to the
SIMOTION D410‑2. The SINAMICS clock is automatically synchronized with the
SIMOTION clock for all drive units with configured telegram 39x.
The first time synchronization is performed after the SIMOTION D Control Unit has reached the
RUN operating mode.
To compensate for deviations between the SIMOTION and SINAMICS clocks, the time of day
is automatically resynchronized at regular intervals.
The user program can use the _driveStates.allClocksSynchronized on the device to query
whether automatic time synchronization is enabled (=YES) or disabled (=NO).
Before the first synchronization, alarms and messages are stored with the time stamp valid in
the SINAMICS at this time, all subsequent alarms and messages with the synchronized time.
SIMOTION D410-2
The first time synchronization after switching on is entered with the status of the operating hours
counter and the time (UTC time, synchronized with SIMOTION) in the diagnostic buffer of the
drive (e.g. SINAMICS Integrated).
Figure 7-16 Diagnostic buffer entry, time synchronization
Error correction
If problems occur with time synchronization, this may be due to deactivated symbolic
assignment to incorrect configuration information (Fast IO configuration).
For more information, see Section Message frame configuration (Page 180).
Compensation of runtime deviations

To compensate for deviations between the SIMOTION and SINAMICS clocks, the time of day
is automatically synchronized at regular intervals.
The following behavior must be taken into consideration when setting the SIMOTION time:
● "Time/date to be set" is after "Time/date on SINAMICS": Time and date are corrected on the
SINAMICS.
● "Time/date to be set" is before "Time/date on SINAMICS": The SINAMICS clock must be
stopped until the SINAMICS "Time/date" has caught up with "Time/date to be set".
Adopting this procedure ensures that the sequence of SINAMICS diagnostic buffer entries
remains the same, even when the runtime differences are aligned.
The SINAMICS clock operates with a resolution of 1 ms. A synchronization accuracy of 1 ms
can be achieved for all bus cycle clocks that can be divided exactly by 1 ms (e.g. 1 ms, 2 ms,
3 ms, etc.).
Due to system considerations, a slightly lower synchronization accuracy is achieved for all bus
cycle clocks that cannot be divided exactly by 1 ms (e.g. 1.25 ms).
If the drive unit does not have an isochronous connection on SIMOTION, this can result in
runtime differences of milliseconds (depending on the set cycle clock ratios).
SIMOTION D410-2
Resetting the time

Requirement:
● SIMOTION D410‑2: As of SIMOTION V4.3
● SINAMICS S120: As of SINAMICS V4.5
● SINAMICS S110: Not available
A threshold value is defined via parameter cu.p3109 and is effective as follows:
● In the case of negative time jumps less than the threshold value (p3109), the time is halted
(for details, see "Compensation of runtime deviations")
● In the case of negative time jumps greater than the threshold value (p3109), the time is reset.
Default setting: cu.p3109 = 100 ms
This means that in the case of negative time jumps greater than 100 ms, the time is reset.
The default value is configured so that normal runtime deviations (drift of the quartzes) are
below the threshold value.
If the SIMOTION clock is reset by more than 100 ms, this is interpreted as a "specific reset
of the time" and the time of the drives is also immediately reset.
If the real-time clock is reset by more than 60 seconds, a diagnostic buffer entry is also made
in the drive:
Time correction (reset) by <correction value> seconds
After a resynchronization (negative time jump greater than the threshold value)
● cu.r3107[0..1] the UTC time after synchronization
● cu.r3107[2..3] the UTC time before synchronization
is displayed in the parameter, whereby [0] and [2] are milliseconds and [1] and [3] are days.
Note
The diagnostic buffer entries are not converted to the new time when the time is changed.
7.4.5 Backing up / restoring / deleting SINAMICS NVRAM data
Requirement
SIMOTION D410-2 as of SIMOTION V4.3
SINAMICS S120 CU310-2/CU320-2 as of SINAMICS V4.5
For other supported SINAMICS Control Units, refer to the SINAMICS manuals.
SIMOTION D410-2
Saving the NVRAM data

The backup of the SINAMICS NVRAM data is performed by setting parameter p7775 to 1. The
following applies:
● Parameter p7775 can also be set to 1 during pulse enable.
● A warm restart is not required.
Note
The consistent backup of the NVRAM data must be ensured by the application.
Make sure that there is no change of the NVRAM contents during the data backup. The greatest
possible consistency is achieved when
● Backup is performed during pulse disable or
● The drives are run down to 0 Hz.
The data for the S120 Control Units and the SINAMICS Integrated is stored in the backup file
"PMEMORY.ACX" in the folder " ... \USER\SINAMICS\NVRAM" on the CF card.
For the S120 Control Units, the data is stored on the CF card of the S120 Control Unit.
Similar to the non-volatile SIMOTION data, an already existing PMEMORY.ACX file is first
renamed as PMEMORY.BAK and then the PMEMORY.ACX file is generated when you save
the SINAMICS data.
If an error occurs during backup, the BAK file can be used to restore the data.
Parameter p7775 is set to 0 at the end of the backup.
Restoring the NVRAM data

The SINAMICS NVRAM data can only be restored when none of the connected drives has a
pulse enable.
When restoring, the PMEMORY.ACX file is accessed first. If this is available and is error-free,
it is loaded. If no PMEMORY.ACX file is available or is corrupt, the PMEMORY.BAK file is
loaded (if available and error-free).
Restoration of the NVRAM data can be performed manually and automatically.
Automatic restoration during module replacement

SINAMICS detects whether the Control Unit has been replaced on the basis of the serial
number. In this case, the NVRAM of the used Control Unit is deleted first after POWER ON.
The following are not deleted:
● CU operating hours counter
● CU temperature and
● Safety logbook
● Crash diagnostic data
If there is an error-free PMEMORY.ACX or PMEMORY.BAK file on the CF card, the data is then
loaded to the NVRAM.
SIMOTION D410-2
If no error-free backup file is available, ramp-up is as for SINAMICS < V4.5. A fault is not issued
and any existing "corrupt" backup files are not deleted.
Manual restoration
The manual restoration of the NVRAM data is performed by setting parameter p7775 to 2.
If the backup file (ACX or BAK) is error-free is, a warm restart is performed. The contents of the
NVRAM are deleted first and then the data is loaded from the backup file to the NVRAM.
The following are not loaded:
● CU temperature
● Safety logbook
Parameter p7775 is set to 0 at the end of the backup.
If the backup files are corrupt or no backup exists, the job is acknowledged with an error value
in parameter p7775.
Deleting the NVRAM data

The SINAMICS NVRAM data can only be deleted when none of the connected drives has a
pulse enable.
The deletion of the NVRAM data is performed by setting parameter p7775 to 3.
A warm restart is then performed automatically.
During the subsequent ramp-up, all NVRAM data on the CU is first deleted.
The following are not deleted:
● CU temperature and
● Safety logbook
At the end of the deletion, the initialization data of the applications is in the NVRAM, similar to
after a device automatic commissioning (with the exception of the above-mentioned data).
Parameter p7775 is set to 0 at the end of the deletion.
Explanations for the parameter p7775

The following jobs can be set with the parameter p7775:
Value of the parameter p7775 Job

1 Backup NVRAM data (on CF card)
2 Restore NVRAM data (from CF card)
3 Delete NVRAM data on the Control Unit
SIMOTION D410-2
The acknowledgement of a parameter job is delayed.

● If the job cannot be executed, it is acknowledged negatively.
● If the job can be executed, it is acknowledged with the value 255.
Table 7-2 Acknowledgments of the parameter jobs
Acknowledge‐ Description
ment
17 Job cannot be executed because of the operating state
20 Illegal value
107 Write access is not permitted (cause: At least one DO has a pulse enable)
Because the SINAMICS must perform a warm restart when restoring and deleting the
data, none of the connected drives may have a pulse enable.
132 Parameter change blocked (see p0300, p0400, p0922, p7760, macro being executed)
204 Write access not permitted
255 "OK": Job being executed
If an error is detected during the execution of a parameter job, the error cause is signaled via
the parameter itself (no message via the fault buffer).
Table 7-3 Causes of error for parameter jobs
Error Cause
10 Error occurred while deleting
11 No backup possible: Memory card is not inserted
12 No backup possible: Memory card is full
13 Backup could not be completed (e.g. memory card removed during the backup)
14 Restoration not possible: Memory card is not inserted
15 Restoration not possible: Checksum of the NVRAM data backup file is faulty
16 Restoration not possible: No backup available
Note
The memory card must always remain inserted for the SIMOTION D410-2. For information
which SINAMICS Control Units permit the removal of the memory card, refer to the SINAMICS
manuals.
Parameter p7775 is only reset automatically to 0 after the successful completion of a job.
Know-how and write protection

Parameter p7775 is not part of the know-how protection. This allows the parameter to be read
and written independent of the know-how protection.
SIMOTION D410-2
Parameter p7775 is part of the write protection. This means the parameter can only be written
by the controller that configured a PZD cyclic communication with the SINAMICS when write
protection is activated (p7761 = 1).
All other write jobs are acknowledged negatively, e.g.
● SIMOTION SCOUT / STARTER
● For SINAMICS BOP, IOP, AOP Control Units
● Other masters that only communicate acyclically with the SINAMICS
7.4.6 SINAMICS diagnostic buffer
Requirements
The SINAMICS Integrated diagnostic buffer can be displayed in SIMOTION SCOUT.
Procedure
Select the SINAMICS Integrated in the project tree, and then "Target system" > "Device
diagnostics" in the menu.
In addition, the SINAMICS diagnostic buffer entries are also displayed in the
SIMOTION D410‑2 device diagnostics. All SIMOTION D410‑2 diagnostic buffer entries are
displayed first, and then all diagnostic buffer entries of the the SINAMICS Integrated. The start
of the SINAMICS Integrated diagnostic buffer entries is identified by the following entry:
>>>>>> Start of SINAMICS Integrated diagnostic buffer, station address = x <<<<<<
You also have the option of viewing the SIMOTION D410‑2 and SINAMICS Integrated
diagnostic buffers via SIMOTION IT web server.
7.4.7 Acyclic communication with the drive
Overview
PROFIdrive drive units are supplied with control signals and setpoints by the controller and
return status signals and actual values. These signals are normally transferred cyclically (i.e.
continuously) between the controller and the drive.
For SINAMICS S110/S120, configure the axis message frames for data exchange (refer to
Performing an offline configuration (Page 128)).
In addition to cyclic data exchange, PROFIdrive drive units feature an acyclic communication
channel. In particular, this is used for reading and writing drive parameters (e.g. error codes,
warnings, controller parameters, motor data, etc.).
As a result, data can be transferred on an acyclic as opposed to a cyclic basis when required.
Acyclic reading and writing of parameters for PROFIdrive drives is based on the DP V1 services
"read data set" and "write data set".
SIMOTION D410-2
The acyclic DP V1 services are transferred while cyclic communication is taking place via
PROFIBUS or PROFINET. The PROFIdrive profile specifies precisely how these basic
mechanisms are used for read/write access to parameters of a PROFIdrive-compliant drive.
The PROFIdrive standard states that "pipelining" of jobs on PROFIdrive drives is not supported.
● Only one "write/read data record" can be performed at any one time on a drive unit (e.g.
SINAMICS S120 control unit or the SINAMICS Integrated of a SIMOTION D).
● However, if several PROFIdrive drive units are connected to a controller, a job can be
processed for each of these drive units at the same time. In this case, the maximum total
number of jobs will depend on the control system. (for SIMOTION, this is a maximum of 8
jobs at a time).
In the case of acyclic data exchange with SINAMICS drives, this means you will have to
coordinate the write/read jobs with one another (buffer management). An interlock must be set
in order to prevent the application or different parts of the application from sending overlapping
jobs to the same PROFIdrive drive unit.
Additional information on how to use DP V1 services can be found in the SIMOTION
Communication System Manual.
SIMOTION Utilities & Applications also has a DP V1 library with functions that are capable of
undertaking coordination tasks commonly associated with acyclic communication. The library
not only coordinates access to the system functions (_ReadRecord/_WriteRecord/
_readDriveParameter/_writeDriveParameter/ etc.), but also expands the range of functions for
frequently required tasks, e.g. the reading of faults and alarms from the drive unit.
SIMOTION Utilities & Applications is provided as part of the SIMOTION SCOUT scope of
delivery.
The functions available in the DP V1 library include:
● Buffer management (coordination of a number of parallel DP V1 services)
● StartUp (function for coordinating startup of the SINAMICS drive with SIMOTION)
● TimeSync (applicative time synchronization: Transfer of SIMOTION time of day to the
SINAMICS drives)
● SetActIn (activating/deactivating objects in SIMOTION and SINAMICS)
● RwnPar (reading and writing of drive parameters)
● GetFault (reading errors and warnings from the drive)
7.4.8 Control properties and performance features

With a few exceptions, the integrated drive control of the SIMOTION D410‑2 has the same
control properties and performance features as the SINAMICS S120 CU310‑2 control unit.
SIMOTION D410-2
However, the following points must be particularly observed:

● The SINAMICS Integrated does not feature a basic positioner (EPOS). EPOS functionality
is provided by SIMOTION technology functions.
● It is not possible to connect a BOP20 Basic Operator Panel to the SIMOTION D410-2.
The following alternative options are available:
– Use of SIMATIC HMI devices (e.g. TP177B, configurable with WinCC flexible)
– Use of the SIMOTION IT web server.
You can use a Web browser to access the Standard diagnostics pages of the
SIMOTION D410‑2 (diagnostic and alarm buffer, watch table, SIMOTION variables and
read/write drive parameters, access protection, trace function, ... ).
You also have the option of creating your own Web pages, for example, to visualize
machine states and to permit service functions. The SIMOTION D410‑2 web pages can
be accessed, for example, using a PC or PDA via Ethernet. Wireless access is also
possible in conjunction with WLAN.
● Not all SINAMICS function modules are supported (e.g. the function modules free function
blocks, spindle diagnostics, and CAN are not supported)
● The SINAMICS Integrated of the SIMOTION D410‑2 does not support a reset via parameter
p0972. A reset via p0972, is only supported by SINAMICS Control Units.
7.4.9 Current controller cycle clocks <> 125 µs / use of output cams and measuring
inputs
If current controller cycle clocks <> 125 µs are used, the parameter calculations of the drive
must be transferred to the PG, in particular when using cam outputs on the TM15 / TM17 High
Feature or for global measuring inputs, so as to regenerate the Fast IO configuration.
A change of the current controller cycle clock will have effects on the sampling times of the I/Os
on the drive side (e.g. TM15/TM17 High Feature, p4099 sampling time of I/Os). For the cam
outputs and the measuring input inputs (only for global measuring inputs) to function correctly,
the sampling times must be known to the engineering system.
Sampling times <> 125 µs occur in the following cases:
● For servo drives with manual change of the current controller sampling time (drive
parameters p0112 and p0115[0])
● For vector drives.

In order that the changed cycle clock ratios are taken into account by the engineering system,
proceed as follows:
1. Go online and perform a project download. The SINAMICS performs parameter calculations
once.
2. Perform an upload to the PG ("Target system" > "Load" > "Load CPU / drive unit to PG").
3. This transfers the parameter calculations of the drive to the PG. The cycle clock ratios are
then known in the engineering system.
4. Go offline.
5. Generate the configuration information (Fast IO configuration) again. To do this, select the
SIMOTION CPU in the project tree and right-click to open the context menu "Fast IO" >
"Create new configuration".
6. Execute "Project" > "Save and compile all".
7. Go online and download the project to the target system.
8. Save the data on the CF card.
SIMOTION SCOUT uses the described procedure to calculate internal system data that is
required for outputting/detecting signals with a high level of position accuracy.
Note
If the cycle clock ratios are not set correctly, an appropriate message is output in the diagnostic
buffer.
SIMOTION D410-2
7.4.10 Licenses for the SINAMICS Integrated

The following SINAMICS functions are licensed via SIMOTION:
● SINAMICS Safety Integrated Extended Functions for SIMOTION D
● SINAMICS Safety Integrated Advanced Functions for SIMOTION D (as of V5.2)
● SINAMICS high output frequency for SIMOTION D
SINAMICS Integrated
SINAMICS Safety Integrated Extended Functions for SIMOTION D

Highly effective protection of personnel and machinery can be implemented with SIMOTION D
thanks to the integrated safety functions of SINAMICS S120.
Whereas the Safety Integrated Basic Functions are license-free, the Safety Integrated
Extended Functions and Advanced Functions require a license for the SINAMICS Integrated.
● SINAMICS Safety Integrated Extended Functions for SIMOTION D or
● SINAMICS Safety Integrated Advanced Functions for SIMOTION D
The Safety Integrated Extended and Advanced Functions are licensed for the SINAMICS
Integrated of SIMOTION D410-2 Control Unit with the licenses. The Safety Integrated
Advanced Functions include the Safety Integrated Extended Functions.
SINAMICS high output frequency for SIMOTION D

Because of legal specifications, the output frequency for converter systems is limited to 550 Hz
per default.
● SINAMICS S120 Control Units as of firmware V4.7 HF7
● SIMOTION D Control Units as of firmware V4.4 HF6
The SINAMICS high output frequency for SIMOTION D license allows users to cancel the
output frequency limit if, as a result of the application, output frequencies of more than 550 Hz
are required for drives. The license cancels the limitation for the SINAMICS Integrated of
SIMOTION D410-2 Control Unit.
Note
The display of the Runtime licenses in the SCOUT Licensing dialog is updated after the power-
up of the SINAMICS Integrated.
SINAMICS Control Units

SINAMICS Control Units connected via PROFINET or PROFIBUS (e.g. CU310-2, CU320-2)
are licensed via the SINAMICS memory card. Licensing via SIMOTION is not possible.

7.4.11 Support of motors with PT1000 temperature sensor

Because of the discontinuation of the KTY84-130 temperature sensor, SIMOTICS motors will
be equipped with PT1000 temperature sensor in the future.
● Motors with DRIVE-CLiQ interface remain compatible and can be operated on any SW
version.
● Motors without DRIVE-CLiQ interface require SIMOTION SCOUT as of V4.5 for the
configuration of the PT1000 temperature sensor.
You can test a configured drive using the drive control panel where you can define a speed
value by setting a scaling factor. The drive control panel should only be used for
commissioning.
Requirements
● The project has been downloaded to the target system.
● SIMOTION SCOUT is in online mode.
● The drive is not being used by a current project in RUN mode.

7.6.1 Overview of SIMOTION Engineering
Performing engineering with SIMOTION SCOUT

The SIMOTION SCOUT engineering system can be used to insert axes in your project.
1. First, run through the axis wizard to configure the axes and interconnect to the real drive
(e.g. SINAMICS Integrated).
2. Provided you have completed the configuration at the drive end, we strongly recommend for
faster working that the SINAMICS Integrated is deactivated via "Target system" > "Select
target device".
3. Complete your SIMOTION application, for example, by creating axis functions and
SIMOTION execution programs.
4. Compile the project and download it to the SIMOTION D410-2.
SIMOTION D410-2
7.6.2 Creating an axis with the axis wizard
Overview
The TO axis provides the user with the technological functionality and the interface to the drive/
actuator. The TO axis processes the motion control commands from the user program (e.g.
MCC) and coordinates the interface to the drives. It executes control and motion commands
and indicates statuses and actual values.
The TO axis communicates with an actuator (drive or hydraulic valve) via a fieldbus system
(PROFIBUS or PROFINET via PROFIdrive protocol) or via a direct setpoint interface (analog
±10 V or pulse/direction).
When running through the axis wizard, the basic settings are made for the axis and the TO axis
interconnected to a drive (e.g. SINAMICS Integrated). The following extended options are
available when "Use symbolic assignment" has been activated:
● A real axis is interconnected to an already configured drive
● A real axis including drive is created via the axis wizard and the drive interconnected to the
axis
● A real axis is created without assigning this to a drive (assignment is made later)
SIMOTION D410-2
Inserting an axis
1. In the Project Navigator, double-click the entry "Axis" > "Insert Axis."
This will access the axis wizard. Set the required technology and then click "OK."
Figure 7-20 Inserting an axis
2. Set an axis type and, if required, configure the units.
SIMOTION D410-2
Figure 7-21 Defining the axis type
3. Create a new drive or make the assignment to an existing drive.
SIMOTION D410-2
Figure 7-22 Assigning a drive
The following setting options are available for the drive assignment:
● Assigning a drive
Assigning a previously configured drive.
● Define a subsequent assignment
The axis should not be assigned to a drive until a later point in time. Accordingly:
– The PLC and motion control functions to be completely configured by a programmer
even without drive know-how using technology objects (e.g. TO axis) and loaded to the
device.
– The drives to be separately configured and optimized by a drive expert.
– The technology objects to be symbolically assigned later to the drive objects via an
interconnection dialog box.
SIMOTION D410-2
● Creating a drive
From the Assignment dialog box, a new drive can be created on an existing drive unit (e.g.
SINAMICS Integrated) and assigned to the axis. This allows the axis, including the drive, to
be created in one operation. It is not necessary to configure a drive before creating an axis.
● Setting up addresses
If "Use symbolic assignment" has been deactivated, the addresses must be set up
manually. This is required, for example, for drive units that do not support symbolic
assignment (e.g. SINAMICS S120 with FW version < 2.6.2, MASTERDRIVES,
SIMODRIVE, etc.).
The address list in the "All Addresses" view provides an overview of the assignments to all
interfaces of the TO axis. From this view, the assignments can also be changed via the
Interconnection dialog box ( button).
Note
The symbolic assignment must be deactivated for the drive and axis configuration without
symbolic assignment and adaptation.
Run through the wizard and enter the settings of your system. The required axis telegram as
well as the addresses used are automatically determined by the engineering system. The
telegram is also extended and interconnections in the drive created automatically depending
on the selected TO technology (e.g. SINAMICS Safety Integrated).
Click Finish to confirm the "Summary" window.
The configured real axis is displayed in the project navigator.
SIMOTION D410-2
Figure 7-23 Axis wizard summary
Note
During system power-up, reference variables as well as drive and encoder data of the
SINAMICS are automatically taken over for the SIMOTION configuration data of the
SIMOTION technology objects "TO axis" and "TO externalEncoder".
Encoder assignment
With a position axis, encoder 1 is also created on the TO axis (motor encoder) and
automatically assigned to the first encoder on the drive.
If encoder 2 (direct encoder) is created at the TO axis, it is assigned to the second encoder of
the drive control.
Result
The configured axis will appear in the project navigator.
Save and compile the project and download it to the target system.
SIMOTION D410-2
After running through the axis wizard, the symbolic drive assignment is displayed via
"Configuration" of the axis as well as via the address list (All addresses view).
The Assignment dialog box can be called again from these dialog boxes using the button.
Instead of calling the Assignment dialog box, it is also possible to edit the input field
containing the symbolic name directly.
TBD, DSDB, and SIDB

In the "Configuration" dialog box of the TO axis, you can activate the following functions from
"Functions" > "Change":
● Technology data block (TDB): for the cyclic exchange of technology data, e.g. actual torque
value
● Drive Safety data block (DSDB), V4.4 and higher: to support the SINAMICS Safety
Integrated Functions by means of the TO
● Safety Info Data Block (SIDB): Predecessor of the DSDB (for compatibility only)
The assignment is always made to the drive DO of the actuator of the axis. The system
automatically generates a telegram extension and the BICO interconnection of the relevant
SINAMICS parameters.
Note
The safety data blocks (DSDB or SIDB) are automatically configured by the engineering
system and interconnected in the drive.
The PROFIsafe telegram must be configured by the user.
If the activation of the safety functions is to be made using PROFIsafe, configure the
PROFIsafe communication to the higher-level SIMATIC F-CPU (see SINAMICS S120 Safety
Integrated Function Manual).
I/O signals at the TO axis

For the assignment of I/O signals on the TO axis (e.g. the inputs for the homing output cam or
hardware limit switches), call the assignment dialog box from the parameterization dialog
boxes of the TOs created or from the address list (view of all addresses) by clicking the
button.
See Section Downloading the project to the target system (Page 141).

7.6.3 Testing an axis with the axis control panel
Axis control panel

The axis control panel is used exclusively for testing axes.
You can use the axis control panel for the following tasks, for example:
● Testing all system components before the axis movement is controlled by a program.
● Testing as to whether you can move the axis using the axis control panel if a fault is detected.
● Moving the axes for tuning purposes (controller tuning).
● Executing active homing.
● Setting and resetting the axis enable signal.
● Testing the axis that was created.
Requirements
The following requirements must be fulfilled for testing:
● The project has been downloaded to the target system.
● SIMOTION SCOUT is in online mode.
Axis test
1. Open the "AXES" folder in the Project Navigator and click the "Control panel" entry below
the axis (for example, Axis_1).
The axis control panel is displayed.
Figure 7-24 Axis control panel
2. To display the control area and axis diagnostics, click the "Show/hide control area" and
"Show/hide diagnostics area" buttons.
SIMOTION D410-2
3. Click "Assume control priority".

Note
In order to move the axis from the PG/PC, you must assume control priority. However, by
pressing the SPACER bar, you can stop the axis at any time.
4. The further procedure depends on the CPU status:

– Case 1: CPU in the STOP/STOPU state
If the CPU is in the STOP state, a message will appear, indicating that the CPU has been
put in the STOPU state.
A safety message appears in a further dialog box and must be accepted.
The activated service function is then displayed via the LEDs (RUN/STOP flashing
yellow/green with 2 Hz).
– Case 2: CPU in the RUN state (as of SCOUT/Kernel V4.4)
Control priority can only be assumed if the axis is not in motion.
After accepting the safety message, a message is shown on the control panel that the
CPU is in the RUN state, that the user program is running, and further axes may be
moving. (LED display: RUN).
If the control priority for a TO is active, commands for the TO from the user program are
rejected with an error code. Alarm 30009: reason 0x04 is output.
5. To enable the axis, click "Set/reset enables".
Confirm the "Switch Axis Enable" dialog box with "OK".
Note
If the control panel is operated in the RUN state, setting/canceling the axis enable can
alternatively be controlled via the user program.
6. To traverse the axis, click the "Position-controlled traversing of the axis" button.
7. Enter a velocity and close the dialog box by clicking "OK".
8. Click the "Start movement" button. You can monitor the traversing motion under velocity and
position. Use "Stop motion" to stop axis movement again.
9. Click "Set/reset enables" to remove the enable. Confirm the "Remove Axis Enable" dialog
box with "OK".
10.Click the "Give up control priority" button to deactivate axis control from the PG/PC. In this
operating state, the axes can no longer be controlled from the PG/PC.
Note
For commissioning kinematics transformations, a path control panel is available as of
SIMOTION V4.4

7.7 Setting up addresses and message frames
Overview
After all SINAMICS components have been configured, addresses must be determined for the
process data exchange between the drive and the controller.
This procedure depends on whether symbolic assignments are used.
● With symbolic assignment, the addresses are determined automatically by the engineering
system; refer to Section Setting up communication for symbolic assignment (Page 180).
● In the absence of symbolic assignment, addresses must be determined manually; refer to
Section Message frame configuration (Page 180).
7.7.1 Setting up communication for symbolic assignment

The communication for the symbolic assignment can be set up with the following actions:
● From the SCOUT menu
Call the "Project" > "Setup communication for symbolic assignment" menu.
● At "Download project to target system"
● At "Save project and compile changes"
When setting up the communication, the message frames, BICO interconnections and
addresses are set up for the entire project.
7.7.2 Message frame configuration
Requirement
You have configured the drive unit.
On the basis of this configuration, one or more of the following actions should be performed:
● The automatic PROFIdrive telegram setting for a drive object should be activated/
deactivated.
● The automatic telegram extension for a drive object should be activated/deactivated.
● The automatic address adaptation for a drive object should be activated/deactivated.
● PROFIdrive telegrams should be configured for drive objects.
● The addresses should be set up.
● Telegrams should be extended manually.
SIMOTION D410-2
Procedure
In the project navigator, open the "Communication" > "Telegram configuration" entry under
"SINAMICS_Integrated."
The "SINAMICS Integrated - Telegram Configuration" dialog box is displayed with the
PROFIdrive PZD telegrams tab.
The dialog box lists all the available drive objects. The possible setting options are described
in the following.
Note
When using the symbolic assignment, the default setting does not have to be changed or
configured.
Figure 7-25 Telegram configuration
SIMOTION D410-2
Table 7-5 Explanation of the figure
No. Meaning
① Selection of a telegram
● The drive telegrams (telegrams 1 ... 6 and telegram 1xx) are defined in accordance with the PROFIdrive
specification and can be selected based on the required functional scope.
● You can transfer the signals of the I/Os or the global measuring inputs, for example, via the telegrams 39x.
Telegram 39x is also required for the time synchronization between SIMOTION and SINAMICS.
● Free telegram configuration with BICO allows you to define your own telegram.
● Free telegram configuration with p0915/p0916 (for TM15/17).
② The "Standard/automatic" and "User-defined" settings are only visible if "Use symbolic assignment" is activated. Using
the setting "Standard/automatic" is generally recommended.
The "User-defined" setting allows the automatic telegram setting, telegram extension, and address adaptation to be
deactivated or activated.
● "Automatic PROFIdrive telegram setting" allows the telegram to be set by the system depending on the configured
technology (telegram selection, e.g. for drive and control unit incl. onboard I/O).
● "Automatic telegram extension" allows the telegram to be extended by the system depending on the configured
technology (e.g. if the technology data block is activated in the axis configuration).
● "Permit automatic address adaptation" allows addresses to be adapted by the system in the case of address
offsets, for example. Address offsets can occur, for example, if a telegram is extended and the adjacent addresses
are already occupied by other telegrams.
With TM15/TM17 High Feature, "Automatic PROFIdrive telegram setting", "Automatic telegram extension", and "Au‐
tomatic address adaptation" cannot be deactivated by design, since for these drive objects the telegram is always set
up in accordance with the parameterized terminal functionality (DI, DO, output cam, measuring input) and cannot be
extended.
"Automatic PROFIdrive telegram setting" and "Automatic telegram extension" must be deactivated if the telegrams are
to be configured manually for TM15 DI/DO and TM31 and interconnected with BICO.
See Section Setting up communication for symbolic assignment (Page 180).
③ Telegram status
(Meaning of the symbols, see table below)
④ Length: Displays the size of the telegram component.
Address: Addresses in HW Config The addresses will be displayed only if the addresses have been defined.
⑤ Displays the SIMOTION object that is interconnected to the SINAMICS object (e.g. axis or encoder).
⑥ Changing the telegram order
Note: Before the alignment, all drive objects without I/O addresses ("---..---") must be moved behind the objects with
valid I/O addresses or those still to be aligned ("???..???").
⑦ "Manual" adaptation of the telegram configuration (e.g. when additional data, such as a motor temperature, is to be
transferred via the telegram).
⑧ Display of the individual control and status words of the associated telegram.
⑨ Setting up the addresses (alignment of the addresses with HW Config)
Only the addresses for the respective drive unit are determined (no automatic determination of telegrams / BICO
interconnections).
SIMOTION D410-2
Note
If symbolic assignment is deactivated, the following applies:
If the telegrams for drive objects (drives, Terminal Modules, etc.) change, you must set up the
addresses again. The addresses are not updated automatically.
Telegram status
The icons in the status column show the following information:
The telegram differs from the configuration in HW Config. You must align the configu‐
ration with HW Config.
You are using a predefined standard telegram or a free BICO interconnection.
You are using an altered standard telegram that you have extended to include supple‐
mentary data.
You are using a telegram for which one of the two telegram lengths is too long. The
drive project cannot process this entry.
Error correction (symbolic assignment deactivated)

Based on the 39x telegram, SIMOTION generates further configuration information (FastIO
configuration) for the following functions:
● Time-of-day synchronization SIMOTION ⇔ SINAMICS
● Use of onboard I/Os of SIMOTION D, CU, or CX
● Use of cams and global measuring inputs
● System function _setDriveObjectSTW
If the telegrams are defined manually (symbolic assignment is deactivated), a telegram 39x
must be set up in the telegram configuration. The telegram then has to be aligned with HW
Config via "Set up addresses."
If use of the functions stated above is not possible, generate the FastIO configuration anew. For
this purpose select in the project tree the affected SIMOTION D Control Unit, the SINAMICS CU
or Controller Extension CX and open the "FastIO" > "Create new configuration" shortcut menu
with the right mouse button. Then compile the project and load it into the CPU. Perform a restart.
The FastIO configuration is also used for the telegram of the Terminal Modules TM15 and
TM17 High Feature. Proceed in the same way if problems occur.
SIMOTION D410-2
7.8 Linking an additional encoder (optional)
7.8.1 General information

SIMOTION D410-2 features a DRIVE-CLiQ X100 interface for connecting an encoder.
SIMOTION D410-2 provides the option of integrating and configuring further encoders in
addition to the motor encoder.
The following encoders are supported for operation with SIMOTION D410-2:
● Encoders with a DRIVE-CLiQ interface
● Encoders connected to SIMOTION D410-2 or CUA32 via the onboard encoder interface
(X23)
● Encoders connected to SIMOTION D410-2 using an SMx module
● Encoders connected using PROFIBUS or PROFINET
Configuring additional encoders

The second encoder can be used at SIMOTION D410-2, for example, as:
● A machine encoder (second encoder = direct measuring system).
A direct measuring system measures the technological parameter directly, i.e. without the
interference of influences such as torsion, backlash, slip, etc. This may enable improved
smoothing of mechanical influences. If you use a second encoder as a machine encoder,
you can work with the encoder changeover function.
● An external encoder.
You can use the external encoder for recording an external master value, for example.
● Encoder for hydraulic axes
● Encoders for the implementation of cam controllers
Configuring tasks
Encoders connected via PROFIBUS/PROFINET are only configured in SIMOTION.
Encoders connected using SMx, DRIVE-CLiQ or the onboard encoder interface must be
configured on the drive side (SINAMICS Integrated) and in SIMOTION.
Configure this additional encoder on drive side (SINAMICS Integrated) and in SIMOTION:
1. Configuring additional encoders on the drive (Page 185)
2. Connecting additional encoders via PROFIBUS/PROFINET (Page 186)
These steps in configuring are described in the next section.
SIMOTION D410-2
7.8.2 Configuring additional encoders on the drive

The following options are available for configuring additional encoders on the drive:
● Configuration of a second encoder on the drive
● Configuration of an encoder as drive object (as of SINAMICS firmware V4.3)
Configuring a second encoder on the drive

The configuration of a second encoder on the drive is useful when the second encoder value
is also to be used for this drive (e.g. motor or machine encoder). Note that a maximum of only
two encoder values can be transferred via PROFIdrive message frames.
In principle, the second encoder value can be freely used (e.g. for acquisition of an external
master value), however the use of an encoder as a separate drive object (drive object
DO encoder) is preferable because of the clear functional separation.
Figure 7-26 Configuration of a second encoder on the drive
Configuring an encoder as drive object

The configuration of an encoder as drive object (drive object DO encoder) has the advantage
that this encoder can be used independently of a configured drive (e.g. for acquisition of a
master value).
The configuration is performed by inserting an encoder via the project navigator.
Figure 7-27 Configuration of an encoder as drive object
SIMOTION D410-2
Note
In the same way as for axes, a "DO encoder" can also be symbolically interconnected to a "TO
externalEncoder".
7.8.3 Connecting additional encoders via PROFIBUS/PROFINET
Options
With regard to encoder integration, further encoders can also be connected via PROFIBUS or
PROFINET. The following options are available:
● Encoder interconnection using a PROFIdrive message frame (encoder with message frame
type 81 and 83)
● Encoder interface as a direct value in the I/O area.
Detailed information is contained in the SIMOTION TO Axis, Electric/Hydraulic, External
Encoder Function Manual
SIMOTION D410-2
7.9 Symbolic assignment of I/O variables
7.9.1 Assignment to the PROFIdrive message frame of the TO axis

I/O variables which you require for purposes such as display and diagnostics can be assigned
from the address list to individual components (status word, for example) via the assignment
dialog of the PROFIdrive message frame. Only components suitable for the data type of the I/
O variable are displayed. If no data type is specified at the I/O variable, this is determined via
the assignment partner after the selection.
Figure 7-28 Assignment of I/O variables to the PROFIdrive message frame
7.9.2 Assignment to drive parameters

I/O variables from the address list can be assigned to drive parameters using the assignment
dialog. Only parameters suitable for the data type of the I/O variable are displayed. If no data
type is specified at the I/O variable, this is determined by the parameter selection.
An extension of the standard message frame is created automatically for the transfer of the
parameters to/from the drive.
SIMOTION D410-2
Procedure
1. Open the Assignment dialog box from the address list (view of all addresses).
The Assignment dialog opens with the corresponding assignment partners.
2. Click the "..." button in the parameter selection line to open the parameter list.
Figure 7-29 Assignment dialog for drive parameters
SIMOTION D410-2
3. Select the desired signal source (e.g. DO drive). Then select the required parameter.
Figure 7-30 Dialog box for the DO and parameter selection
4. Click "OK" to accept the selection.
SIMOTION D410-2
5. The desired SINAMICS parameter is assigned to the I/O variable in the interconnection
dialog box.
Figure 7-31 Assigned drive parameters
6. Click "OK" to accept the assignment.

The following table shows the possible types of assignment:
Name of the assignment Data type Direction Transferrable BICO parameters

BICO_IW.<parameter number> WORD Input All CO parameters (BICO source)
BICO_QW.<parameter number> WORD Output All CI parameters (BICO sink)
BICO_ID.<parameter number> DWORD Input All CO parameters (BICO source)
BICO_QD.<parameter number> DWORD Output All CI parameters (BICO sink)
Syntax of the assignment names

● A number of parameters (separated by periods) are specified for outputs (SINAMICS side
= received data) which can be interconnected with a number of BICO sinks
● If the transferred parameter is on another drive object (DO), the DO name precedes the
parameter. "#" is used as a separator between the DO name and the parameter.
● Individually transferred bits of a parameter appear in brackets [x]

7.10 Configuring drive-related I/Os
7.10.1 Overview of the symbolic configuration of I/Os
Overview
SIMOTION D410-2 as well as the SINAMICS S110/S120 control units and additional
components (TMs) have I/Os that can be used by the drive unit and by SIMOTION.
I/Os originally assigned to SINAMICS can be used by SIMOTION only when they have been
interconnected to a message frame.
Symbolic assignment
SIMOTION SCOUT supports by default the symbolic configuration of I/Os, see
Section Symbolic assignment / adaptation (Page 123).
The symbolic assignment simplifies the configuration significantly:
Table 7-6 Comparison of configuration with/without symbolic assignment
Configuration With symbolic assignment Without symbolic assignment

Only the configuration with symbolic assignment is described in the following. For further
information on the configuration of drive-related I/Os without symbolic assignment, see
Appendix Configuring drive-related I/Os (without symbolic assignment) (Page 295).
SIMOTION D410-2
Procedure
The configuration of the I/Os is divided into two basic steps:
1. Configuring I/O terminals (Page 192)
The functionality of an I/O channel is configured (e.g. configuration of a DI/DO as digital
output).
2. Configuring technology objects and I/O variables (Page 196)
The access of technology objects and I/O variables to I/Os is configured. The configuration
is symbolical, whereby only "function-compatible" I/O channels are offered for selection.
Example:
For the TO measuringInput, only symbolic assignments of the type MI (measuring input) are
offered for selection.
The engineering system automatically makes the required message frames and the
interconnections to the configured I/Os.
7.10.2 Configuration options

The following table provides an overview of the configuration options for the I/O terminals of
various modules.

Note
The module hardware for TM15 and TM15 DI/DO is identical. A distinction is only made by the
addition of the component in the SIMOTION SCOUT project navigator using "Insert input/
output component".
I/Os that are originally assigned to the SINAMICS drive unit can also be used by SIMOTION via
configuration.
● An output is always only exclusively available for the SINAMICS drive unit or SIMOTION.
● An input used by SIMOTION can also be interconnected on the drive side.
In the following sections describe in detail how to configure the I/O terminals.
7.10.3 SIMOTION D410-2 Configuring I/Os
Procedure
The onboard inputs/outputs of the SIMOTION D410-2 are assigned to SINAMICS Integrated.
The configuration is therefore performed via the drive unit ("SINAMICS_Integrated" >
"Control_Unit" > "Inputs/outputs").
The properties of the I/O channel can be configured in the parameterization dialog box. With the
bidirectional digital I/Os, for example, an I/O channel can be:
● Parameterized as input or output
● Inverted
● BICO-interconnected (use as drive I/O)
● Used as digital input for SIMOTION with "DI (SIMOTION)"
● Used as digital output for SIMOTION with "DO (SIMOTION)"
SIMOTION D410-2
● Used as a global measuring input input for SIMOTION with "Measuring input (SIMOTION)"
● Used as an output cam output for SIMOTION with "output cam (SIMOTION)"
Figure 7-32 Configuration of D410-2 I/Os (terminal X121)
24 V supply for DO
If no digital outputs are used, the SIMOTION D410-2 can be supplied via the Power Module. A
24 V supply must be connected to terminal X124 for the digital outputs to be used. If a digital
output is parameterized and the 24 V supply is not connected (or the level is too low), alarm
A03506 is issued on the SINAMICS side (can also be parameterized as a fault).
Data transfer
If the D410‑2 onboard I/Os are interconnected using symbols (or if telegram 39x is used for the
onboard I/Os), the status information of the DI and DO will be transmitted to cu.p2048 at the
PROFIdrive PZD sampling rate. Sampling of the inputs and outputs is also performed in the
sampling time parameterized according to cu.p0799.
The same applies if the I/Os are manually interconnected to a drive telegram via a BICO
converter.
Transfer of the output values and feedback of the input values is therefore subject to dead times
and jitter.
For time-critical applications, use of measuring probes or cams is recommended. Alternately,
the isochronous I/Os, I/Os of TM15, TM17, or isochronous ET 200 I/Os can be used.
SIMOTION D410-2
7.10.4 Configuration of CU3xx/TMxx I/Os
Overview
The configuration is performed in a similar way as for the onboard I/Os for the
SIMOTION D410-2, i.e. the I/Os can be
● BICO-interconnected (use as drive I/O)
● Used by SIMOTION
See also Section SIMOTION D410-2 Configuring I/Os (Page 193)
Note
If symbolic assignment is subsequently activated for a project in which telegrams have already
been configured and interconnected, this project can be changed together with the BICO
interconnections!
For this reason, make a backup copy of your project before activating the symbolic assignment.
The TM15 DI/DO and the TM31 are particularly affected here (see Section Symbolic
assignment / adaptation (Page 123)).
7.10.5 Configuration of the ET 200SP/MP timer DIDQ

The I/O terminals of the ET 200SP and ET 200MP timer DIDQ can be used as drive-related I/
Os for measuring input and output cam applications.
The DI/DQ timers are configured via the hardware configuration of STEP 7 or TIA Portal. The
properties of the I/O channel can be configured in the parameterization dialog box, for example
● Timer DI for use of the I/O as measuring input input or
● Timer DQ for use of the I/O as cam output
Note
For the technological use of the timer DIDQ, you must operate the I/O station isochronously on
PROFINET:
● ET 200SP timer DIDQ: With SCOUT or SCOUT TIA, IM 155-6 PN HF required
● ET 200MP timer DIDQ: Only with SCOUT TIA, IM 155-5 PN ST or HF required
Operation via PROFIBUS is not possible.

related I/Os (without symbolic assignment) (Page 295).
Procedure
If a global measuring input is selected, it must be assigned a hardware input.
Click the "Assign" button to open the Assignment dialog box and select a free (i.e. not yet
used) I/O.
Note
Only those I/Os are displayed that have the appropriate measuring input functionality (MI_xx
[channel name, terminal number]). If no suitable I/Os are displayed, you must first configure the
I/Os (I/O must be configured as "measuring input").

Detailed information on the configuration of the TO measuring input can be found in
the SIMOTION Output Cams and Measuring Inputs Function Manual.
7.11.2 Configuring local measuring inputs

Local measuring inputs are drive-related measuring inputs. The configuration is performed via
drive parameters.
For further details, see:
● Configuring drive-related I/Os (without symbolic assignment) (Page 295) In the Appendix
● SIMOTION Output Cams and Measuring Inputs Function Manual
7.11.3 Configuring output cams / cam tracks
Overview
The type of cam output must be selected during the configuration of the TO outputCam and
TO camTrack.
SIMOTION D410-2
The following output types are available:
Table 7-9 TO outputCam / TO camTrack output types
Cam output on... Explanation

Output cam output (CAM) The cam output is performed on the basis of an internal time stamp. The temporal resolution of
the cam output depends on the hardware used.
Supported hardware:
● SIMOTION D4x5‑2 (terminal X142): Resolution 1 μs
● TM17 High Feature: Resolution 1 μs
● TM15: Typical resolution 125 μs (DRIVE‑CLiQ cycle clock)
● SIMOTION D410-2 (DI/DO 8 to 15): Typical resolution 125 μs
● ET 200MP TM timer DIDQ 16x24V: Resolution 1 μs
● ET 200SP TM timer DIDQ 10x24V: Resolution 1 μs
High-speed digital output The cam output is performed via onboard outputs of the SIMOTION CPU. The output is via a
(DO) hardware timer and the cam output is achieved with a resolution with respect to time < servo
cycle.
Supported hardware:
● SIMOTION D410 (terminal X121)
● SIMOTION D4x5 (terminal X122, X132)
● SIMOTION C240, C240 PN (terminal X1)
Standard digital output The output cam calculations are performed in the processing cycle (IPO or IPO2 cycle or in the
(DO) servo cycle).
Actual cam output is performed in servo cycles. The resolution with respect to time of the cam
output is generally reduced by the output cycle of the I/O used.
The resolution is therefore dependent as follows:
● For the standard I/O (e.g. ET 200), on the cycle time of the bus system (PROFIBUS DP /
PROFINET I/O)
● For the TM15 / TM17, on the cycle time of the bus system (PROFIBUS Integrated /
PROFIBUS DP / PROFINET IO)
● For the TM15 DI/DO, TM31, TM41, TB30, on the configured sampling time:
– cu.p0799 (CU inputs/outputs sampling time) for the onboard outputs
– p4099 (TMxx inputs/outputs sampling time) for TB30, TM15 DI/DO, TM31, and TM41
Supported hardware:
● Onboard outputs (SIMOTION D, Controller Extension CX, SINAMICS Control Unit CU3xx)
● Centralized I/O (SIMOTION C)
● Distributed I/O via PROFIBUS DP / PROFINET IO (e.g. ET 200, etc.)
● Drive-related I/O (TM15, TM15 DI/DO, TM17 High Feature, TM31, TM41, TB30)
Procedure
To achieve the best possible output cam resolution on the onboard I/Os of a SIMOTION
D410-2, activate the output and select "Cam output on output cam output (CAM)."
SIMOTION D410-2
Then assign a hardware output. For this purpose, click ("assign") to open the Assignment
dialog box and select a free (i.e. not yet used) I/O.
Note
Only those I/Os that have the appropriate functionality (DO_xx [channel name, terminal
number]) are displayed. If no suitable I/Os are displayed, you must first configure the I/Os (I/O
must be configured as "output cam (CAM)")
Figure 7-34 Configuration of a cam for SIMOTION D410-2
A maximum of two edges can be output per processing cycle clock of TO outputCam or TO
camTrack.
Detailed information on configuring the output cam and cam track technology objects can be
found in the SIMOTION Output Cams and Measuring Inputs Function Manual.
7.11.4 Configuring an I/O variable
Overview
You have two ways to assign an I/O variable to I/O terminals:
● Assignment via preferred interconnection (e.g. DI_8 [DI/DO 8, X121.7])
To do this, you must use the SIMOTION preferred interconnection for the corresponding
input/outputs of the SINAMICS DOs. The BICO interconnection is performed automatically.
● Assignment via PZD (e.g. via DI_0_15 or DO_0_15).
Note that for these signals a message frame of the appropriate length is generated, but the
BICO interconnection is not performed.
SIMOTION D410-2
Interconnection via preferred interconnection

The I/O variables are configured via the address list. Components that support a symbolic
assignment can be configured without I/O addresses.
Preferred interconnections are displayed as assignment targets in the Assignment dialog box
(e.g. DI_8 [DI/DO 8, X127.7]). The assignment is made by direct selection of the corresponding
terminal signal.
Components that do not support symbolic assignment (e.g. standard PROFIBUS I/O) are
configured via I/O addresses.
Figure 7-35 Address list
Interconnection via PZD

In principle, an assignment via the PZD is also possible (e.g. via DI_0_15 or DO_0_15). Note
that for these signals a message frame of the appropriate length is generated, but the BICO
interconnection is not performed.
For this purpose, switch to the "Communication" dialog box of the corresponding SINAMICS
DO. You can now see the individual bits of the PZD (e.g. I_Digital or O_Digital) listed there.
Interconnect the appropriate bit of the PZD with a signal.
Alternatively, you can assign SIMOTION to an I/O channel during the terminal configuration
(e.g. by selecting "DI (SIMOTION)", see Section SIMOTION D410-2 Configuring I/Os
(Page 193)).
TO axis
The symbolic assignment of I/Os is also supported by the TO axis (e.g. for a HW limit switch).
SIMOTION D410-2
7.12 Creating a DMC20/DME20 DRIVE-CLiQ hub
Substitute values for I/O variables

Substitute values cannot be specified for input variables of the BOOL data type. If you do
require substitute values however, proceed as follows:
1. Assign a digital input (e.g. SINAMICS_Integrated.Control_Unit.DI_8 [DI/DO 8, X121.7]) to
an input variable of the BOOL type (e.g. sensor).
2. Create a global variable (e.g. all_inputs) (at least data type WORD, e.g.
SINAMICS_Integrated.Control_Unit.DI_0_15).
3. Configure the substitute value
The corresponding bit of the substitute value must then contain the substitute value for the
BOOL variables.
In the same way, you can assign a substitute value to a BICO parameter.
For various SINAMICS drive objects, higher-level types are available for the assignment of
substitute values.
Figure 7-36 Configuration of substitute values
7.12.1 Hub properties
DRIVE‑CLiQ hub characteristics

The DMC20 and DME20 DRIVE‑CLiQ hub modules are used to implement point-to-point
distribution of a DRIVE‑CLiQ line. With the DMC20/DME20, an axis grouping can be expanded
with 4 DRIVE‑CLiQ sockets for additional subgroups.
● DMC20 is the hub for the control cabinet configuration
● DME20 is the hub for use without a control cabinet (IP67 degree of protection).
The modules are especially suitable for applications which require DRIVE‑CLiQ nodes to be
removed in groups, without interrupting the DRIVE‑CLiQ line and therefore the data exchange.
SIMOTION D410-2
Application examples
Encoder expansion and hot-plugging are typical applications implemented by means of a
DRIVE-CLiQ hub.
● In an encoder expansion, direct measuring systems are connected. For example, these are
attached directly to the machine in the control cabinet. Several encoders can be connected
to one hub in the cabinet.
Note
The SIMOTION D410-2 has just one DRIVE-CLiQ interface. You can use the DMC20/
DME20 to evaluate the motor encoder and an additional encoder by means of SMx. The
DRIVE‑CLiQ hub must be directly connected to the Control Unit.
● Hot plugging is the option for changing motor components while in operation. These
components are connected to a star topology using a DRIVE-CLiQ hub. This setup allows
their deactivation without impairing downstream components.
Additional information on the DMC20/DME20 DRIVE‑CLiQ hub is contained in the
● SIMOTION D410-2 Manual
● SINAMICS S120 Control Units and Supplementary System Components Manual
7.12.2 Creating a DRIVE-CLiQ hub
Introduction
You can directly insert a DMC20/DME20 in the project navigator. The hub is not wired when you

7.13 Creating and programming TM41
7.13.1 TM41 properties

The TM41 terminal module can be used to expand the number of digital I/Os and analog inputs
within a drive system. TM41 also returns TTL signals which emulate an incremental encoder,
for example, for a master control system.
The emulated encoder signal has the signal characteristic of an incremental TTL encoder (A
track, B track, R track). The resolution of the encoder signal can be specified in the
configuration.
Note
The digital I/Os and the analog input can be interconnected using the BICO configuration.
The TM41 encoder interface (incremental encoder representation) can

● Be interconnected with a Control Unit encoder signal (from sin/cos incremental encoders,
for example), using parameterization. For detailed information, consult the SINAMICS
manuals.
● From the SIMOTION viewpoint, be accessed as an axis. This allows you to make the axis
position (a master value) available to a second controller as an encoder signal, for example.
Configuring the TM41 involves the following steps:
● Configuring TM41 at SINAMICS Integrated (Page 203)
● Configuring the TM41 using the axis wizard (Page 204)
7.13.2 Configuring TM41 at SINAMICS Integrated
Procedure
The TM41 can be configured after you completed the configuration of SINAMICS Integrated.
Proceed as follows:
1. Double-click "Insert input output component" at "Input/output component" in the Project
Navigator.
2. Select the TM41 from the "Drive object type" field of the "Insert Input/Output Component"
dialog box and assign a unique name to the module.
3. Confirm your entry with "OK".
Result
The TM41 is inserted in the Project Navigator by the name you entered.
SIMOTION D410-2
7.13.3 Configuring the TM41 using the axis wizard

7.14.4 Measuring functions, trace, and function generator
Drive optimization
Drive optimization is part of commissioning and can be performed with SIMOTION SCOUT.
Note
Controller optimization may only be performed by skilled personnel with control engineering
knowledge.
SIMOTION D410-2
Controller optimization
Various measuring functions are available for controller optimization of the drive. These
measuring functions enable the control of the higher-level control loop to be selectively
switched off and the dynamic response of individual drives to be analyzed through simple
parameter assignment. The function generator and the trace recorder are used.
The control loop is supplied with the ramp-function generator signal at a specific point (e.g.
speed setpoint), and the signal from the trace recorder is recorded at another point (e.g. speed
actual value).

Figure 7-38 Optimizing a controller
Depending on the form of controller optimization to be performed, it is possible to define the

quality (e.g. signal form, amplitude, transient recovery time) of the disabled signal, the
measuring duration for step functions in the time range, or the bandwidth and number of
averaging operations in the frequency range for the trace. The analytical and graphical
evaluation can then be performed accordingly (FFT diagram, Bode diagram).
The following measuring functions are available:
● Setpoint jump at current controller
● Reference frequency response at current controller
● Setpoint jump at speed controller
● Disturbance variable jump at speed controller
● Reference frequency response at speed controller
● Disturbance frequency response at speed controller
● Speed-controlled system (input at current setpoint filter)

Figure 7-42 Measurement with modified P-gain
Overview
After commissioning the SIMOTION D410-2, we recommend that you back up the SIMOTION
user data (programs, configuration data and parameter assignments) on the CF card.
Loading user data

Use the "Target system" > "Load" > "Load to target system" command to transfer the following
data from the SIMOTION SCOUT engineering system (ES) to the "non-volatile SIMOTION
data" area of SIMOTION D410-2:
● Configuration data
● Programs
● Parameterization
● Technology packages
SIMOTION D410-2
The hardware configuration of the SIMOTION D410-2 and the retain variables are also stored
in the "non-volatile SIMOTION data" area.
Note
Using the menu:
● "Target system" > "Load" > "Load project to target system" loads all of the project data to the
target system.
● "Target system" > "Load" > "Load CPU / drive unit to target device" only loads the data of the
selected device / drive element to the target device.
After the SIMOTION D410-2 is switched off, the contents of the "volatile SIMOTION data" area
are lost.
Additional information about the SIMOTION SCOUT engineering system can be found in
the SIMOTION SCOUT Configuration Manual.
Saving user data

The "Copy RAM to ROM" function is used in SIMOTION SCOUT to save the following data from
RAM to the CF card:
● Technology packages and user data (units, configuration data, parameter assignments,
task configuration) from the "volatile SIMOTION data" area
● Current data values are copied to the "volatile SIMOTION data" area, depending on the
settings in SIMOTION SCOUT.
Note
The "Copy RAM to ROM" command cannot be used to save the current values of retain
variables to the CF card.
You have the following options for backing up the current values of retain variables to the CF
card:
● User program
Use the "_savePersistentMemoryData" system function in the user program.
● Save with the service selector switch or the DIAG button on the SIMOTION D410-2 or
using SIMOTION IT web server, see Section Diagnostic data and non-volatile SIMOTION
data (Page 282)
The SCOUT functions "Save variables" and "Restore variables" also give you the option of
backing up to your PC and restoring data that was changed during operation and only stored
in the runtime system.
Execute the "Copy RAM to ROM" function separately for the SINAMICS Integrated. This
requires that the drive element has been selected in the Project Navigator.

7.16.1 Overview of data deletion

The memory of the SIMOTION D410-2 described in the User memory concept (Page 71) can
be deleted in various granualarities. That is, you can choose to delete all data or only specific
parts.
You have the following means of deleting the SIMOTION D410-2 data:
● SIMOTION D410-2 memory reset (Page 215)
● Deleting user data on CompactFlash card (Page 218)
● Setting SINAMICS Integrated to the factory settings (Page 219)
● Restoring the default settings for the SIMOTION D410-2 (Page 219)
● Deleting/restoring non-volatile SIMOTION data (Page 288)
● Backing up / restoring / deleting SINAMICS NVRAM data (Page 159)
7.16.2 SIMOTION D410-2 memory reset
Introduction
During the memory reset, the memory of the SIMOTION D410-2 and the non-volatile
SIMOTION data in the NVRAM with the exception of the communication configuration (baud
rates, network addresses, etc.), are deleted. The data on the CF card is retained during the
memory reset.
Reset the memory on the SIMOTION D410-2 if
● If you want to undo changes made to user data (programs, configuration data, parameter
assignments) which you have not backed up by means of the "Copy RAM to ROM"
command.
● The RUN/STOP LED is flashing (slowly flashing yellow) to indicate that the
SIMOTION D410-2 is requesting a memory reset.
● If the non-volatile SIMOTION data with the project on the CF card do not match and an error
occurs (diagnostic buffer entry).
You can perform a memory reset either in offline mode using the mode switch of the
SIMOTION D410-2 or in online mode using the SIMOTION SCOUT.
SIMOTION D410-2
7.16 Deleting data
Data deleted on memory reset

The following data are deleted during a memory reset:
● Technology packages
● Retain TO (absolute encoder adjustment)
● Retain variables
Retain variables are variables in the interface or implementation section of a UNIT that are
declared with VAR_GLOBAL RETAIN, or global device variables with the RETAIN attribute.
Note
Absolute encoder data are deleted during a memory reset and must therefore be readjusted
after the memory reset.
Data retained during memory reset

The following data are retained during a memory reset:
● TCP/IP and DP parameters
● Diagnostic buffer
● Data that was saved with the _savePersistentMemoryData, _saveUnitDataSet or
_exportUnitDataSet commands and with the "Copy RAM to ROM" function.
If backup files (PMEMORY.XML/PMEMORY.BAK) have been created with
_savePersistentMemoryData, the data in these files will be backed up again to the non-
volatile SIMOTION data after the memory reset. Users can therefore force the restoration of
non-volatile SIMOTION data by means of memory reset. This also includes the absolute
encoder position.
● Licenses
● SINAMICS NVRAM data
The technology packages and user data (configuration data, programs, parameter
assignments) that were previously backed up on the CF card using the "Copy RAM to ROM"
menu command will be transferred to the "non-volatile SIMOTION data" area of the
SIMOTION D410-2 during the next power-up. Thus, an existing configuration on the CF card
is loaded to the SIMOTION device following the memory reset.
SIMOTION D410-2

Memory reset is canceled if you do not return the mode switch to MRES as specified within
3 seconds. Repeat the procedure in this case.
5. Now move the mode switch back to the required operating mode.
NOTICE
Unintentional restoration of the default settings instead of memory reset
Note that the MRES position (switch setting 3) during power-up causes the default settings to
be restored. See Section Restoring the default settings for the SIMOTION D410-2 (Page 219).
Make sure you do not accidentally switch the power supply OFF/ON in the MRES selector
setting, as this restores the default settings instead of performing the desired memory reset.
7.16.3 Deleting user data on CompactFlash card
Overview
Deletion of the user data from the CompactFlash card is necessary, for instance, if you wish to
load another (new) project to the CompactFlash card and therefore find it necessary to delete
the existing user data for an "old project" (e.g. unit data sets) from the CompactFlash card.
You can delete the user data with SIMOTION SCOUT. The SIMOTION D410-2 must be
operating in online mode. The following data is deleted:
● User data from the "volatile data" area
● Non-volatile data, with the exception of IP and DP parameters
● User data on the CompactFlash card (user directories), including the SINAMICS

As of SIMOTION V5.2 / SINAMICS Integrated V5.1, a distinction is made between Safety
Integrated Extended and Advanced Functions. The Safety Integrated Advanced Functions also
include the Safety Integrated Extended Functions.
The safety functions listed here conform to:

● Safety Integrity Level (SIL) 2 according to IEC 61508
● Category 3 according to DIN EN ISO 13849-1
● Performance Level (PL) d according to DIN EN ISO 13849-1
The safety functions correspond to the functions according to DIN EN 61800-5-2 (if they are
defined there).
Übersicht der Safety Integrated Functions

If motors without a (safety-capable) encoder are being used, not all Safety Integrated Functions
can be used.
Note
Definition: "Without encoder"
When "without encoder" is used in this manual, then this always means that either no encoder
or no safety-capable encoder is being used.
In operation without encoder, the actual velocity values are calculated from the measured
electrical actual values. Therefore, velocity monitoring is also possible during operation without
encoder.

Note
Details on the Safety Integrated Functions, such as information on the configuration of safety
functions as well as operating conditions for the encoderless operation can be found in
the SINAMICS S120 Safety Integrated Function Manual.
Notes
Parameterize the desired Safety Integrated functions and the monitoring with or without
encoder and activate them in the safety screen forms of the SIMOTION SCOUT engineering
system.
SIMOTION D410-2
If motors are used without an encoder or with an encoder that is not suitable for Safety
Integrated Extended/Advanced Functions, not all Safety Integrated Functions can be used
(see previous table, "Without encoder" column).
The safe speed monitoring without encoder also functions at standstill as long as the drive is
switched on.
PROFIsafe telegrams
SIMOTION D410‑2 supports PROFIsafe telegrams 30, 31, 901, 902 and 903. (902 as of
SIMOTION V4.4; only in conjunction with the TIA Portal; 903 as of SIMOTION V5.1 for Safe
Cam, SCA).
Telegrams 31, 901, 902 and 903 enable the states of the F‑DIs to be routed through to an
F‑CPU via PROFIsafe. Telegrams 901 and 902 enable you to apply a factor to SLS limit value
1 that has been set in the drive, allowing the SLS monitoring limit to be changed during
operation. Moreover, in telegrams 901 and 902, the safe position actual values communicated
in the SINAMICS S120 are transferred via PROFIsafe to the F‑CPU (function SP).
With telegram 903, the state of up to 30 cams can be transferred.
Direct fail-safe data exchange via telegram 901 is supported as of SIMOTION V4.3 SP1 HF9.
The "Transfer safe position values via PROFIsafe" function is supported as of SIMOTION V4.4.
7.18.2 Activate Safety Integrated functions
Control
The Safety Integrated functions are fully integrated in the drive system. They can be activated
as follows:
● Via the onboard terminals (F-DI, F-DO) on the Control Unit
● Via a PROFIsafe telegram using PROFIBUS or PROFINET
● Via the terminals of a connected TM54F
● As of SIMOTION V4.5, the Safety Integrated Basic Functions STO, SS1 and SBC can also
be controlled license-free via the TM54F. (Requirement: STARTER V4.4 SP1; STARTER
V4.4 SP1 is not part of SCOUT V4.4 - the functionality is therefore only available as of
SCOUT V4.5)
● The SLS and SDI functions can also be activated permanently via parameter assignment.
● The SLA Extended Function can only be activated via PROFIsafe.
The Safety Integrated functions are implemented electronically and therefore offer short
response times compared to solutions with externally implemented monitoring functions.
SIMOTION D410-2
The output signals of the SCA Advanced Function can only be output via PROFIsafe.
Note
Although SIMOTION does not contain any safety-related functionality, it provides support for
SINAMICS drives that can perform safety-related functions.
The purpose of this support that SIMOTION offers for the safety-related monitoring functions is
to prevent fault reactions at the drive end by ensuring that the drive does not exit the operating
state being monitored.
Further information about support of the SINAMICS Integrated functions on the TO axis can be
found in the TO Axis Electric/Hydraulic, External Encoder Function Manual.
The Safety Integrated Basic Functions via the onboard terminals (F‑DI 0) and the
Safety Integrated Extended/Advanced Functions (via TM54F or PROFIsafe) can be used
simultaneously.
Note
Safety Integrated Extended and Advanced Functions can be controlled via:
● The onboard terminals of the Control Unit or
● PROFIsafe or
● TM54F
Mixed operation is not permitted.
Note
If SIMOTION D410-2 is mounted separately (Power Module in blocksize format connected to
SIMOTION D410-2 via CUA31/32), use of the Safety Integrated Extended and Advanced
Functions via the onboard terminals (F-DI, F-DO) is not possible.
F-DI and F-DO as standard I/Os

Unused F‑DI and F‑DO can be used as standard I/Os (one F‑DI as two standard inputs, the
F‑DO as a standard output).
Using F-DI through F-CPU

Prerequisite for use of the F‑DI by F‑CPU:
● With encoder as of SIMOTION V4.3 SP1 HF3
● Without encoder as of SIMOTION V4.4
The onboard F‑DIs can be used as F‑DI for the F‑CPU if these are not used by
SIMOTION D410‑2.
In "Extended Functions via PROFIsafe and Basic Functions via onboard terminal" mode, the
Basic Functions STO or SS1 (with or without SBC) can be controlled locally. At the same time
the routing of F‑DI 1 and F‑DI 2 for the F-CPU is possible.
SIMOTION D410-2
Filter setting F‑DI

The F‑DIs of SIMOTION D410‑2 have a parameterizable input filter (drive parameter p10017,
debouncing time for digital inputs).
With this input filter, unwanted signals (e.g. fault signals or test pulses of F-DO) can be filtered
out so that these do not cause any faults.
Failsafe output modules (e.g. ET 200S F-DO) test the outputs at regular intervals. To achieve
this, the F-DO modules switch test signals to their outputs in the form of bit patterns to detect
a short-circuit, short-circuit to frame, or a short-circuit to ground.
If the filter time of the F-DI is set too small, these test pulses will result in unwanted triggering
of the safety function in the case of D410-2.
For setting the input filter, the following rules must therefore be complied with:
● Debouncing time p10017 ≥ 3 x sampling time inputs/outputs p0799
● If 3 x p0799 < 1 ms, then: Debouncing time p10017 = N x 1 ms (N = 1, 2, 3, …)
● Debouncing time p10017 >> fault pulse time
Unwanted triggering of the safety function can indicate incorrect settings.
Note that the settings also impact the response time of the system.
Example
ET 200S I/O system with F‑DO modules
Because of the test pulses, the debouncing time p10017 must be at least 4 ms.
This results in the following setting options, for example:
● p10017 = 12 ms; p0799 = 4 ms or
● p10017 = 4 ms; p0799 = 1 ms
You will find additional information on ET 200S test pulses in Internet (https://
support.industry.siemens.com/cs/ww/en/view/44452714).
SI monitoring cycle clock

The response times of the various safety functions are derived from the Safety Integrated
monitoring cycle clock (r9780).
The value of the Safety Integrated monitoring cycle clock (r9780) is determined automatically
- you therefore only see it when you are connected online to the drive. With the SINAMICS
Integrated of a SIMOTION D410-2, different values can be determined as for a SINAMICS
S120 CU310-2 connected to SIMOTION D410-2 because of the architecture.
The Safety Integrated monitoring cycle can be calculated as follows for the SINAMICS
Integrated:
x = 32 x p0115[0] (p0115[0] = current controller cycle clock; for D410-2, typically 125 µs for
servo drives)
Case A: For PROFIBUS Integrated cycle clock > x: r9780 = x
Case B: For PROFIBUS Integrated cycle clock ≤ x: r9780 = (rounded up (x/Tdp))* Tdp
For drives connected via CU310-2, case A applies generally.
SIMOTION D410-2
Example:
Servo drive with current controller cycle clock (p115[0] = 125 µs)
PROFIBUS Integrated cycle clock: Tdp = 3 ms
x = 32 x 125 µs = 4 ms ⇒ case B
r9780 = (rounded up (4 ms / 3ms))*3 ms = 6 ms
For detailed information about Safety Integrated response times, see the SINAMICS S120
Safety Integrated Function Manual.

Topologies (F proxy)
The F proxy functionality enables transparent routing of safety telegrams from the SIMOTION
I-device (or slave) to the SIMOTION controller (or master).
SIMOTION D410-2
The topologies that may be used with the SIMOTION D410-2 are listed below. In each case, the
description specifies whether the control of Safety Integrated functions is routed through to the
drives.
● SIMATIC F CPU (master), connected via PROFIBUS with PROFIsafe to SIMOTION
D410-2 (I-slave).
Note: PROFIBUS not possible configuration via SCOUT TIA
– Routing to the SINAMICS Integrated drive of SIMOTION D410-2.
– Routing to drives of CUs that are connected to SIMOTION D410‑2.
The CUs are connected as slaves via PROFIBUS to the DP master interface of the
SIMOTION D410‑2.
● SIMATIC F‑CPU (controller), connected via PROFINET with PROFIsafe to SIMOTION
D410‑2 DP/PN (I-device)
– Routing to the SINAMICS Integrated drive of the D410‑2 DP/PN.
– Routing to the drives of a SINAMICS S110/S120 CU connected to the D410‑2 DP/PN.
The CU is connected as a device via PROFINET to the PROFINET interface of the
D410‑2 DP/PN (= controller) or the CU is connected as a slave via PROFIBUS to the DP
master interface of the D410‑2 DP/PN.
● The SIMOTION D410‑2 is the PROFIBUS master for a direct fail-safe slave-to-slave
communication, e.g. between a SIMATIC F‑CPU and a SINAMICS S110/S120 CU.
Direct fail-safe slave-to-slave communication with telegram 901: As of V4.3 SP1 HF9.
Not for SCOUT TIA (SIMOTION in the TIA Portal)
See also application example at the following Internet address (https://
Note
Control for the Safety Integrated functions cannot be routed through to the SINAMICS
Integrated of the SIMOTION D410‑2 in this configuration.
Topologies (Shared Device)

With the Shared Device functionality, you can configure access to an IO device with several IO
controllers using PROFINET. This enables channels/modules to be flexibly assigned to
different IO controllers. This option is available for inputs and outputs. You can use this
mechanism to access the fail-safe data of a drive configured below a SIMOTION CPU via the
F-CPU (e.g. access of an S7-1500 F-CPU to a SINAMICS S120 CU310-2 which is subordinate
to a SIMOTION D410-2).
Requirement:
SIMOTION SCOUT (not possible with SCOUT TIA)
Note
When configuring PROFIsafe, it is recommended that you use the I-device F proxy functionality
instead of the Shared Device.

7.19 Hot plugging

SIMOTION D410-2 is capable of hot plugging, i.e. SIMOTION D410-2 can be unplugged or
plugged in again to the PM340/PM240‑2 energized.
The following scenarios are therefore possible:
● SIMOTION D410-2 is supplied with power via X124, Power Module is de-energized
● SIMOTION D410-2 is de-energized, Power Module is energized
● SIMOTION D410-2 is supplied with power via X124, Power Module is energized
Unplugging and plugging of a SIMOTION D410-2 is only permitted on one and the same Power
Module. If the SIMOTION D410-2 is plugged into a different Power Module (power, type, article
number, serial number), then alarm 30074 is issued on the drive side.
SIMOTION D410-2 must always be supplied via X124 for operation. There is no warm restart
when plugged in again.
If the SIMOTION D410-2 is unplugged from the Power Module, a drive connected to the Power
Module stops.
7.20 Quantity structures

With SIMOTION D, the SIMOTION PLC and motion control functionalities as well as the
SINAMICS S 120 drive software run on a shared control hardware. The IEC 61131‑3-compliant
PLC integrated in SIMOTION D means that the system is not just capable of controlling
sequences of motions, but the entire machine as well.
The scaling of the PLC and motion control functionality is performed via Control Units of various
performance classes for SIMOTION D
● SIMOTION D410-2 for single-axis solutions and small multi-axis solution with typically 2 to
3 axes
● SIMOTION D425‑2 (BASIC performance) for up to 16 axes
● SIMOTION D435‑2 (STANDARD performance) for up to 32 axes
● SIMOTION D445‑2 (HIGH performance) for up to 64 axes
● SIMOTION D455‑2 (ULTRA‑HIGH performance) for up to 128 axes or applications with very
short control cycle clocks
SIMOTION D410-2
7.21 Migration from SIMOTION D410 to SIMOTION D410-2
The possible axis quantity structures depend on the required servo and interpolator cycle
clocks and apply for electric, hydraulic and virtual axes.
The scaling of the drive computing performance is performed via SINAMICS drive controls for
the SIMOTION D410‑2. The drive control of a CU310‑2 is already integrated (SINAMICS
Integrated) for the SIMOTION D410‑2. This can be extended with SINAMICS S110/S120
Control Units connected via PROFIBUS or PROFINET.
SIZER
With the SIZER configuration tool, you can easily configure the SINAMICS S110/S120 drive
family including SIMOTION. It provides you with support for selecting and dimensioning the
components required for a Motion Control task.
● Dimensioning of the PLC and motion control functionality --> selection of the SIMOTION D
Control Unit
● Dimensioning of the drive computing performance and the required drive components.
Depending on your performance requirements, SIZER determines the possible number of axes
and the resulting utilization on the SIMOTION and SINAMICS side.
Quantity structure of DRIVE-CLiQ components

The following maximum number of DRIVE-CLiQ components can be connected to the
SIMOTION D410-2:
● Max. 8 Terminal Modules, of these max.
– 3 TM15, TM17, TM41
– 8 TM15 DI/DO, TM31, TM120, TM150
– 1 TM54F
● Max. 5 encoder systems
(SMx Sensor Modules or encoders/motors with DRIVE-CLiQ interface)
● Max. 1 DMC20/DME20
You require a DRIVE-CLiQ hub module (DMC20/DME20) or a CUA32 to connect more than
one encoder system via DRIVE-CLiQ.
7.21.1 Upgrade from SIMOTION D410 to SIMOTION D410-2

SIMOTION D410-2 differs both in the structure and in the functionality of a SIMOTION D410.
This has effects that must be taken into account during a changeover.
SIMOTION D410-2
Change from D410 to D410-2 (upgrade)

The change from SIMOTION D410 to SIMOTION D410‑2 is performed with a module
replacement in HW Config. The procedure when changing is similar to that when changing, for
example, from SIMOTION D445-2 DP/PN to SIMOTION D455-2 DP/PN.
The module replacement is started by dragging the new module to the frame of the module rack
with the existing module in HW Config, see Section Device replacement in HW Config
(Page 255).
The module replacement is performed automatically. During this operation, the technology
packages and the device versions are updated. Existing configurations of the SIMOTION D410
are transferred to the SIMOTION D410‑2 during the module replacement.
Information on where project adaptations are required or not required when changing from a
SIMOTION D410 to a SIMOTION D410‑2 can be found in the following sections (see Table
"Transfer of existing SIMOTION D410 projects to SIMOTION D410‑2").
For further information on generally required measures for project adaptations, see Section
Service and maintenance (Page 239).
Change from D410‑2 to D410 (downgrade)

As a SINAMICS drive cannot be downgraded, a module replacement of a SIMOTION D410‑2
(SINAMICS Integrated firmware V4.x/V5.x) with a SIMOTION D410 (SINAMICS Integrated
firmware V2.x) is not possible.
However, project data can be transferred by means of an XML export/import.
Transfer of existing projects

Existing configurations of the SIMOTION D410 are transferred to the SIMOTION D410‑2
during the module replacement.
The following table provides information on where project adaptations are required or not
required:

PROFIBUS interfaces The configuration on the PROFIBUS interfaces including any existing PG/PC assignment is re‐
tained.

One of the differences of SIMOTION D410‑2 DP compared to D410 DP is that it has an additional
(second) PROFIBUS interface (X24).
A key difference of SIMOTION D410‑2 DP/PN compared to D410 PN is that it also has a PROFI‐
BUS interface (X21).
PROFINET interface The configuration on the PROFINET interface, including any existing PG/PC assignment, is re‐
tained.

Message frame configu‐ The message frame configurations on the PROFIBUS or PROFINET interface are retained. The
rations same applies for the addresses of the slots/subslots.
SINAMICS Integrated The SINAMICS Integrated is to be replaced with the new type and its corresponding version. The
drive configuration and the assignment of the DRIVE‑CLiQ interface are retained.
PG/PC connection / In contrast to SIMOTION D410, SIMOTION D410-2 has an Ethernet interface.
Ethernet interface Due to the significantly improved engineering performance, we recommend that you connect a PG/
PC via the Ethernet interface of the SIMOTION D410-2 instead of via PROFIBUS.
Configuration of the on‐ The configuration of the onboard I/Os (4 DI, 4 DI/DO) is retained. The new features mean the
board I/Os functionality, quantity structures and terminal designations for the onboard I/Os differ for the SI‐
MOTION D410-2 compared with the SIMOTION D410.
The number of onboard I/Os has more than doubled so that previously required terminal modules /
I/O modules may no longer be necessary.
Safety SIMOTION D410-2 has 3 F-DI and 1 F-DO for Safety Integrated Extended/Advanced Functions so
that a TM54F used for SIMOTION D410 may be omitted.
CompactFlash card / SIMOTION D410 and SIMOTION D410‑2 have different CompactFlash cards and different card
firmware mappers (firmware).
A CompactFlash card of the SIMOTION D410/D4x5-x must not be inserted into a SIMOTION
D410-2 and vice-versa!
1 GB CompactFlash cards of the SIMOTION D410/D4x5-x can also be used for the SIMOTION
D410-2 when a new boot loader is loaded. For details, see Section Boot loader on the Compact‐
Flash card (Page 271).
Connectable drive com‐ Like the SINAMICS S120 CU310-2, the SIMOTION D410-2 also no longer supports some older
ponents drive components.

SIMOTION D410-2
Keyword Explanation
User program Although, in principle, a SIMOTION D410 user program can run on a SIMOTION D410‑2, modifi‐
cations may be required because of innovations in the hardware. Examples:
● The runtime behavior of the SIMOTION D410‑2 changes because of the increased
performance. As long as the user program does not contain any "runtime-dependent code",
adaptations should not be necessary.
● Fan faults for the SIMOTION D410-2 are signaled via a diagnostic buffer entry
PeripheralFaultTask and a system variable (fanWarning). For the SIMOTION D410, fan faults
were signaled by a warning on the drive side (A1009).
● The following additional functions are available for the SIMOTION D410-2:
– Backup of the non-volatile SINAMICS data (NVRAM data) via CU parameter p7775
– Automatic detection of a module replacement on the basis of the serial number of the
Control Unit
Hardware Due to the innovative hardware, the following changes have been made for the SIMOTION D410-2
compared with the SIMOTION D410:
● The control elements of the SIMOTION D410-2 have been standardized with the SIMOTION
D4x5-2 (rotary switch instead of DIP switch for SIMOTION D410, DIAG button, etc.).
● The interfaces on the top of the module are positioned differently.
● Changed I/O terminals:
– Spring-loaded terminals instead of screw terminals
– Fitting for the 24 V terminal block
– The SIMOTION D410 connector X120 must be re-wired
– The wiring of the SIMOTION D410 connector X121 can be taken over exactly for the new
connector of the SIMOTION D410-2 (the terminal designation for the reference ground DI
0 - DI 3 changes from M1 to M2)
SIMOTION D410-2 has the following additional interfaces:
● Additional Ethernet interface
● Additional PROFIBUS interface
The mounting depth of the SIMOTION D410-2 has been reduced by approx. 15% compared to the
SIMOTION D410.

SIMOTION D410-2 licensing

SIMOTION D410-2 is a compact Control Unit predestined for single-axis applications.
SIMOTION D410-2 has an integrated drive control for either a servo, a vector or a V/f axis. One
real axis can be used without requiring a license for a SIMOTION D410-2. Speed-controlled
axes and virtual axes never require a license.
SIMOTION D410-2 can be extended with additional SINAMICS S110/S120 Control Units (e.g.
CU305) and so can also be used for smaller multi-axis applications (e.g. with 2 - 3 axes). These
additional axes must be licensed with the single-axis licenses or the "D410‑2 MultiAxes
Package." See Section "CompactFlash card" in the SIMOTION D410‑2 Manual.
If you need to license one POS axis, use the POS single-axis license; in the case of GEAR/CAM
or if you require more than one POS licenses, it is better to use the D410‑2 MultiAxes Package,
Note
If you use more than one real axis with SIMOTION D410-2, you must license these additional
axes. The axis license with the highest functionality is covered by the inclusive license (a real
axis). The functionality has the following granularity: CAM > GEAR > POS.
Example:
You use 2 real axes: 1 POS, 1 CAM.
Because the CAM license has a higher value, and so inclusive, you only need to purchase a
POS license.

Licenses are required for runtime functions such as SIMOTION IT Virtual Machine. These can
be pre-installed on a CompactFlash card (CF card) or ordered separately.
Note
Path interpolation is supported as of V4.4.
7.22.1 Automatic restart after FAULT state
Overview
A SIMOTION D410‑2 can perform a restart automatically after the FAULT operating state has
occurred via the system variable _automaticRestart available as of V4.4.
The system variable _automaticRestart is intended for applications in which an automatic
restart is mandatory after a crash caused by an extreme situation, e.g. wind generators after a
lightning strike.
The automatic restart causes the device with the project to boot automatically from the CF card.
Note
System variable _automaticRestart is visible on all SIMOTION CPUs, but the functionality is
only supported by SIMOTION D410‑2.
Note
Restart cannot be ensured in all cases, for example, if a hardware fault occurs.
Programming
Table 7-14 System variable _automaticRestart
Value Response
16#00000000 Automatic restart after FAULT state is not active
(default).
16#00000000 < n < 16#FFFFFFFF Automatic restart after FAULT state is active until
the value 0 is reached.
On a restart after FAULT state, the value is decre‐
mented by 1.
16#FFFFFFFF Automatic restart after FAULT state. The value re‐
mains unchanged.
SIMOTION D410-2
The system variable can be set to the desired value and decrementing monitored in the user
program.
Alternately, the start value can be set manually in the SIMOTION SCOUT symbol browser
under "force variable." To ensure the manually set start value remains effective, note the
following:
● The start value must be set in the offline project and loaded onto the device by project
download.
● The value that is loaded onto the device must differ from the start value that was last loaded
onto the device by project download.
This ensures that the current value of the system variable _automaticRestart in the runtime
system is not reset on every project download (crash history is not deleted).
The system variable is retentive, its content and therefore the "automatic restart after FAULT
state" function is retained after an interruption in the power supply.
An automatic restart after FAULT state that has occurred can be diagnosed by the diagnostic
buffer entry Automatic restart of the CPU performed after FAULT operating state.
System variable _automaticRestart is not backed up with _savePersistentMemoryData:
● Because an automatic restart can be caused by hardware problems and this cause is not to
be transferred to the new module if a module is replaced.
● Because the user program will decide for itself under what condition system
variable _automaticRestart will be set to a certain value.
If an error occurs after the automatic restart, there is not special error handling for this case. If
this error prevents startup, the SIMOTION device cannot enter the RUN state. An error during
startup does not trigger an automatic restart.
7.22.2 Triggering a restart with a user program

A user program of the SIMOTION device can trigger restart of the device via the system
function _restart available as of V4.4.
This system function, like the system variable _automaticRestart, described in Section
Automatic restart after FAULT state (Page 235) is intended for applications in which an
automatic restart is mandatory after a crash caused by an extreme situation, e.g. wind
generators after a lightning strike.
The system function _restart enables a response to non-acknowledgeable drive errors with a
OFF2 reaction, which result in the inability of the drive to move. These drive errors can only be
exited via a restart or by power off/on.
Note
The system function _restart is provided for all SIMOTION devices, but restart itself is only
performed for the D410‑2 device.
The restart causes the device with the project to boot from the CF card.
So that, after a restart has been performed, the SIMOTION device enters the RUN state again,
the system variable _startUpData.operationMode must be on RUN.
SIMOTION D410-2
The system function _restart only supports synchronous command processing.

Return values:
● 16#00000000: Function performed without errors.
● 16#FFFF8091: Functionality is not supported for the device.
If the restart was triggered by the system function _restart, the following entry is made in the
diagnostic buffer: The SIMOTION device has been switched to STOP and restarted by the user
program using the _restart system function.
The user program must ensure that, when the D410‑2 restarts, no axis movements or other
unwanted influences on the machine by the user program occur.
If an error occurs after the automatic restart, there is not special error handling for this case. If
this error prevents startup, the SIMOTION device cannot enter the RUN state. An error during
startup does not trigger an automatic restart.

Note
This document uses the following terms:
● Upgrade: Denotes upgrading to a higher version of a component/software
● Downgrade: Denotes reverting to a previous version of a component/software
● Update: In general terms, denotes the act of bringing a component/software up-to-date
(in isolated cases, this may see an upgrade or downgrade)
Upgrade options
The exact procedure when replacing or updating components depends on various factors.
If a project is upgraded, the procedure depends on the scope of change of the versions.
● Change of the SIMOTION main version
● Change of the SIMOTION service pack or hotfix version
● Change of the PROFINET version
● Change of the SINAMICS version
(There are SIMOTION versions that contain several SINAMICS versions for a device.)
If a different SIMOTION controller is to be used, the procedure depends on whether a device
or a platform replacement is required.
Examples of upgrade scenarios are listed in the following overview table. They are shown in the
columns. The lines list the principle measures that have to be performed. Whether the measure
SIMOTION D410-2
8.1 Overview
has to be performed in a specific case, must be decided project-specifically.

Grayed-out cells mean that a measure is not required.
Note
If the version is changed and the SIMOTION controller replaced at the same time, then all
measures apply; the measures must be performed in the TOP-DOWN sequence according to
the table.

8.2 Replacing modules
8.2.1 Spare parts replacement for SIMOTION D410-2

A replaced module is detected by the controller on the basis of the serial number. This
automatically deletes the non-volatile data and transfers the data saved on the CF card to the
controller. See Section Replacing modules in the spare part scenario (Page 81).
8.2.2 Removing and replacing the SIMOTION D410-2
Overview
The following describes the procedure for replacing a module (spare part). In principle, it is also
possible to replace the SIMOTION D410-2 when the PM340/PM240‑2 is energized.
You will find more information on this in Section Hot plugging (Page 229).
WARNING
Danger to life through electric shock
Note that Power Modules with FSB performance rating or higher still carry a residual
intermediate voltage after shutdown.
Wait 10 minutes before you remove any screws.
For further information, see the SINAMICS S120 AC Drive Manual.
Removing a defective module

How to remove the SIMOTION D410-2 module:
1. Switch off the power supply to terminal X124.
2. Remove the CF card from the card slot.
3. Remove the connections for the power supply (X124).
4. Disconnect the communication interface connectors from the device:
– DRIVE-CLiQ interface (X100)
– PROFIBUS DP interface (X21)
– PROFIBUS DP interface (X24; D410‑2 DP only)
– PROFINET interface (X150 P1 and P2; D410‑2 DP/PN only)
– Ethernet interface (X127)
5. If necessary, disconnect the plug-in connectors to the digital inputs/outputs of the interfaces
(X120, X121, X130, X131).
SIMOTION D410-2
6. Disconnect the plug of any encoder connected to the X23 encoder interface.
7. Depending on the mounting method, disassemble the SIMOTION D410-2 from the Power
Module or remove the SIMOTION D410-2 from the mounting plate (see Section Mounting
(Page 29)).
Installing a new module

How to install the new SIMOTION D410-2 module:
Note
Observe the information for installation (Page 29), wiring and connecting (Page 35) the
SIMOTION D410-2.
1. Install the new SIMOTION D410-2 on the Power Module or on the mounting plate.
2. Connect all previously removed connectors.
3. Terminate the load voltage supply cables at the terminal block.
4. Rewire the shielding of all cables.
5. Insert the original CF card into the card slot of the new SIMOTION D410-2.
6. Switch on the power supply. The new SIMOTION D410-2 is immediately ready for operation.
Replacing SIMOTION D410-2 modules without PG/PC

To enable a module replacement without a PG/PC, you must back up the current non-volatile
SIMOTION and SINAMICS data on the CF card during operation.
NOTICE
Loss of data due to failure to make backup copies
Non-backed-up non-volatile SIMOTION data can be lost on hardware replacement (module
defect), for example, if the current value of the retain variables have not been backed up and
replaced by their initial values again.
Back up the non-volatile SIMOTION data on the CF card.
NOTICE
Repeat referencing necessary after absolute encoder overflow
If an absolute encoder overflow occurs after _savePersistentMemoryData, the actual position
value is no longer correct after the non-volatile SIMOTION data are restored.
In this case, homing (absolute encoder adjustment) must be repeated.

8.2.3 Replacing DRIVE-CLiQ components
Requirement
DRIVE-CLiQ components not only support replacement in the switched-off state of the
machine/system (Power Off), but also replacement during operation. For this, the component
to be replaced must be at the end of the DRIVE-CLiQ line.
Removing DRIVE-CLiQ components

1. Deactivate the affected component or drive object.
2. Remove the DRIVE-CLiQ connector.
3. Remove the supply voltage of the component and uninstall the component.
Installing DRIVE-CLiQ components

1. Mount the component and reconnect the supply voltage.
2. Reconnect the DRIVE-CLiQ cable at the same location (port). The cable must have the
same length as the old one.
3. Activate the affected component or drive object.
Parameters for topology comparator and component replacement

In the expert list, you can use CU parameter p9906 to specify how the electronic rating plates
are compared for all the components of a Control Unit. The type of comparison can be changed
subsequently for each individual component by using p9907/p9908 or right-clicking in the
topology. All data on the electronic rating plate is compared by default.
● When p9909 = 1, the serial number and the hardware version of the new replacement
component are automatically transferred from the actual topology to the target topology,
and then saved in the non-volatile memory.
● When p9909 = 0, serial numbers and hardware versions are not automatically transferred.
The setting p9901 = 1 enables the spare parts / components replacement without tool support
to be carried out. The new serial number of the spare part is automatically transferred from the
actual topology to the target topology and saved in non-volatile memory. In order for this to
occur, the components that have been replaced must be of the same type and have the same
article number, such as "6SL3055-0AA0-5BA0". The last or last two digits of the article number
SIMOTION D410-2
(depending on the component type) are not checked, as the HW version, for example, is coded
in these. This mechanism is also applied when several components are replaced.
Modified wiring following module replacement

In the default setting for the topology comparator, modified wiring configurations of the DRIVE-
CLiQ components (e.g. a cross-exchange) are not accepted for safety reasons and are
generated by a fault.
If a cross-exchange of components is required (i.e. existing components are replaced with
other existing components, and no spare parts are used), e.g. for troubleshooting purposes, the
topology comparator must be reduced via parameter p9906 or preferably via p9907/p9908; or
as an alternative, by right-clicking in the topology.
Note
In this case, incorrect insertion of components is no longer monitored.
Automatic upgrading/downgrading (firmware update)

During the startup, the system automatically upgrades or downgrades all DRIVE-CLiQ
components to the version of the component firmware on the CF card. Components that cannot
be downgraded to the component firmware version of the CF card (e.g. old firmware on the CF
card and new components to which the old firmware cannot be loaded) retain their firmware
version. The resulting firmware version combinations are always functional.
The CONTENT.TXT file in the main directory of the CF card contains the component version.
Note
During an automatic FW update, please take note of the messages and alarms in the
SIMOTION SCOUT detail window.
A firmware update on the SIMOTION D410-2 is signaled by the RDY LED flashing yellow, while
on the DRIVE-CLiQ components (TM, SMC, etc.) it is signaled by the RDY LED flashing red/
green.
Components requiring POWER ON following a firmware update signal this by means of the fast
flashing RDY LED. Go offline with SCOUT and switch the 24 V supply to the relevant
The update function can be deactivated using CU parameter p7826 in the expert list.

SIMOTION D410-2
8.2.4 Replacing the fan
Overview
The SIMOTION D410-2 fan switches on depending on the internal module temperature.
Fan faults are signaled by a diagnostic buffer entry, system variable and PeripheralFaultTask,
see section Fan (Page 83).
The SIMOTION D410‑2 does not have to be removed from the Power Module in blocksize
format to replace the fan. A defective fan can also be replaced when the SIMOTION D410‑2 is
switched on.
Note
The fan/battery module should preferably be replaced when the power is switched off and only
when the CPU is in the STOP state. Otherwise you risk an unintentional failure of the machine/
system, e.g. through accidental disconnection of cables.
Replacing the fan

The fan is available as a spare part. For the article number, see section "Spare parts and
accessories" in the SIMOTION D410‑2 Manual.
NOTICE
Damage to device electronics caused by electric fields or electrostatic discharge
The fan on the SIMOTION D410-2 may only be replaced by qualified skilled personnel and
strictly in accordance with ESD guidelines (Page 303).
1) Release the snap hooks on the left and right side of the fan 2) Pull the fan forwards and out of the SIMOTION D410-2
by pressing them inwards. housing.

3) Locate the centering frame of the replacement fan on the 4) Slide the replacement fan on the mounting lug into the
mounting lug of the SIMOTION D410-2. Control Unit.
Make sure that the fan connector fits into the centering frame
of the the printed circuit board.
Engage both snap hooks on the fan in the housing of the
Control Unit.
Fan service life

Fans are parts subject to wear. The fan is monitored for SIMOTION D410-2. A failure is
signaled in the diagnostic buffer and can be evaluated by the user program (e.g. via the
PeripheralFaultTask).
Contamination is the main cause of fan failure. A visual inspection should be made as a first
criterion for replacement. If the fan is highly contaminated, it must be replaced.
If no contamination is present, we recommend that the service period is used as criterion.
Because the service life of the fans depends greatly on the operating conditions (temperature,
humidity, number of operating hours per day, contamination caused by dust, etc.), no fixed
limits for all applications are can be specified.
In the field, under average industrial conditions, a replacement interval of 5 to 7 years has
proven itself.
We recommend that the maintenance intervals are adapted for the specific application based
on empirical values.

8.3 Customizing the project
8.2.5 Replacing the CompactFlash card

If spare parts are used, you must contact the Technical Support Center to transfer the license
key of the defective CompactFlash card to the new CompactFlash card.
Proceed as follows to write your project to the new CompactFlash card:
● Changing the CompactFlash card (Page 269)
● Writing to a CompactFlash card (Page 270)
Detailed information about licensing can be found:

● In the SIMOTION SCOUT Configuration Manual
● In the FAQs on the Internet (https://support.industry.siemens.com/cs/ww/en/view/
73501913)
8.3.1 Overview
Overview
The project needs to be adapted if you want to replace the type (e.g. D410‑2 DP ⇒ D410‑2 DP/
PN) or version of the SIMOTION device in your existing project.
Procedure
The exact procedure for project adaptations depends on the scope of the target hardware and
version changes.
An overview can be found in the Upgrade options overview (Page 242) figure.
8.3.2 Creating backup copies (project/CF)
Requirement
Before adapting the project, it is essential that you create the following backup copies:
● A backup copy of the project and
● A backup copy of the CF card contents, see Saving CF card data (Page 265).
See also
Update - preparatory measures (Page 261)
SIMOTION D410-2
8.3.3 Backing up user data (back up variables)
Overview
With the SCOUT functions "Save variables" and "Restore variables", you have the option of
backing up and restoring data that were changed during operation and only stored in the
runtime system. This is necessary if a SIMOTION platform is changed or a version upgraded,
for example.
The "Save variables" function creates XML files that can be saved in any folder.
The following types of data can be backed up:
● Remanent global device variables and unit variables, as well as TO retain data located in the
NVRAM of the controller
● Data saved with _saveUnitDataSet or _exportUnitDataSet and located on the CF card
Note
During an upgrade, this function is only required for the purpose of backing up and restoring
unit data records created with _saveUnitDataSet.
Retain and unit data (saved with _exportUnitDataSet) remain valid even after a version
upgrade.
SIMOTION retain data can also be backed up to a memory card without the use of
SIMOTION SCOUT. For this purpose, use:
● The _savePersistentMemoryData function or
● The service selector switch or the DIAG pushbutton or SIMOTION IT web server,
see Section Non-volatile SIMOTION data (retain data) (Page 283).
Procedure
The user data must be saved before the SCOUT project is upgraded. This can be done
regardless of whether the version upgrade is performed with the "old" or the "new" SCOUT
version.
The procedure is described below based on the example of a new SCOUT version.
1. Open the project.
When you open the project, a window appears with a message that the project you are
opening was created with a different SCOUT version, as well as a query asking whether you
want to perform an upgrade.
Figure 8-2 "Convert project" message
2. Confirm the prompt with "OK". The project will be converted to the current version.
SIMOTION D410-2
3. A dialog then appears with a prompt asking whether the project should be opened write-
protected.
Figure 8-3 Prompt for write-protected opening
4. Confirm this prompt with "Yes" (open write-protected).

5. Set the SIMOTION D410-2 to the STOP operating state.
6. Set the SIMOTION D410-2 to online mode and perform the SCOUT Save variables function.
The retain variables (interface and implementation) and the user files (with
_saveUnitDataSet or _exportUnitDataSet) are saved to the PG/PC.
7. Then close the project.
Note
An online connection is possible only when the PG/PC is configured for the controller.
Update the PG/PC assignment using .
Online connection is now possible.
For further information, see the SIMOTION SCOUT Configuration Manual.

Diagnostic data and non-volatile SIMOTION data (Page 282)
8.3.4 Upgrading a user project to the new SCOUT version
Requirement
It is essential that a backup copy be made of the original project before the upgrade, because
the data storage of the project is also upgraded during the upgrade. This ensures that you can
always return to the original project if the upgrade fails (power interruptions, unexpected faults,
incorrect operation, etc.).
SIMOTION D410-2
Procedure
1. Open the project. A window appears with a message that the project to be opened was
created with another SCOUT version as well as a prompt as to whether the upgrade should
be performed.
Figure 8-4 "Convert project" message
2. Confirm the prompt with "OK". The project will be converted to the current version.
3. A dialog then appears with a prompt asking whether the project should be opened write-
protected.
Figure 8-5 Prompt for write-protected opening
4. When upgrading the version, click "No" (open not write-protected).

Note
A project that was last edited with a higher SCOUT version cannot be opened by a SCOUT
with a lower version.
Remedy:
Convert the project beforehand with the more recent SCOUT version to the required
software version ("Project" > "Old project format" > "Save in old project format"). The project
can then be opened with the lower SCOUT version.
8.3.5 Platform replacement via XML export/import
Overview
A platform replacement is always required when an existing project is to be used for another
SIMOTION platform. The platform replacement is always performed via an XML export/import.
SIMOTION D410-2
The following devices can be interchanged via a platform replacement:

● Replacement between SIMOTION C, P and D (e.g. C240 ⇒ D445‑2 DP/PN)
● Replacement between D410/D410-2 and D4x5/D4x5‑2 (e.g. D410‑2 DP/PN ⇒ D445‑2 DP/
PN)
● Replacement between SIMOTION D (SINAMICS S120 Integrated) ⇒ SIMOTION D
(SINAMICS SM150 Integrated)
Platform replacement during project downgrades:
It is not possible to downgrade to a lower SINAMICS version. However, it is possible to transfer
project data by means of an XML export/import.
Preparations
Before the platform replacement can be performed, preliminary work may be necessary in the
existing project.
If a SIMOTION D4x5-2 is to be imported into a SIMOTION D410-2, then only the permitted
quantity structure of the D410-2 may be configured in the D4x5-2. This applies for all
components, e.g. not only an infeed, but also the permissible power units.
A SIMOTION D4x5-2 with CU adapter and Power Module in blocksize format can be imported
into a SIMOTION D410-2 when the CU adapter is connected to port 0. Otherwise, the topology
will be destroyed.
Generally, the success of an import always also depends on the specific configurations of the
drive units, and whether the configuration is possible for the device to which the import is to be
performed. Also note any error messages that may occur.
Procedure
Proceed as follows:
1. In the project navigator of SIMOTION SCOUT, right-click the SIMOTION controller that is to
be replaced.
Select "Expert" > "Save project and export object" in the context menu.
"Save project and export object" exports selected data of the selected object in XML format.
This data export can then be reimported into other projects. The entire project is not
exported, only the data of the selected object (e.g. only the D410‑2 or only the SINAMICS
Integrated).
2. Specify the desired path and start the XML export.
3. When the export has been performed error-free, delete the device from the project and
confirm the prompt.
4. Insert the desired platform as new device in the project navigator of SIMOTION SCOUT.
With the selection of the device, you also define the SIMOTION version, and with a
SIMOTION D, also the SINAMICS version.
5. Import the data of the original platform into the new device. To do this, right-click the new
device and select "Expert" > "Import object" in the context menu.
6. Select the location where the XML export data is to be stored and start the import. Confirm
the prompt to continue with the import.
SIMOTION D410-2
Confirm the message with regard to the import of a "non-compatible type" with "OK".
8.3.6 Preparing the device replacement
Overview
In contrast to the platform replacement, project data can be particularly easily transferred when
a device is replaced. The device replacement is performed via HW Config, whereas
an XML export/import is required for a platform replacement.
A device replacement is only possible within SIMOTION D.
The following devices can be interchanged:
● Replacement between generations (D410 ⇒ D410‑2)
● Replacement between variants of the generations (D410‑2 DP ⇒ D410‑2 DP/PN)
● Replacement of SIMOTION, SINAMICS and/or PROFINET version (e.g.
D410 V4.1 - PN V2.1 SINAMICS S120 V2.5 ⇒ D410 V4.2 - PN V2.2 SINAMICS S120
V2.6.2).
Note
When replacing a device, note that the SINAMICS version of the new SIMOTION device
must be the same or higher.
A downgrade to a lower SINAMICS version (e.g. SIMOTION D410‑2 with SINAMICS V4.x
to SIMOTION D410 with SINAMICS V2.x) is not possible.
When carrying out a "D410‑2 DP/PN ⇒ D410‑2 DP" device replacement, the PROFINET IO
system is omitted and the bus interface changes. You must reconfigure this after the device
replacement. Any existing PROFINET field devices on the PROFINET interface must be
replaced with PROFIBUS field devices on the PROFIBUS interface.
Migration D410 ⇒ D410-2

If a SIMOTION D410 is replaced with a SIMOTION D410-2, the SINAMICS Integrated is also
automatically changed to a new type and the corresponding version.
SIMOTION D410-2
8.3.7 Device replacement in HW Config
Procedure
1. Double-click the SIMOTION device to be replaced in the project navigator in
SIMOTION SCOUT. HW Config opens.
2. Open the "SIMOTION Drive Based" folder in the hardware catalog.
Note
SIMOTION D is modeled as a compact device in HW Config. When replacing a module, you
must drag the new module to the header of the displayed module rack and not to slot 2.
Ensure that you do not delete the D410-2 rack!
3. Drag-and-drop the new module to the header of the module rack.

The old module is replaced.
Alternatively, you can:
– Select the rack header and double-click the new module in the module catalog to replace
the previous module, or:
– Right-click the rack header and select the "Replace object" option.
Figure 8-6 HW Config module replacement
4. Confirm the dialog box that appears with "Yes" to replace the SIMOTION device. The
module is replaced.
SIMOTION D410-2
5. Accept the changes made to the hardware configuration with "Station" > "Save and
compile".
6. Close HW Config.
Note
The engineering system automatically performs the following actions when replacing a
module (if necessary):
● Update of the technology packages (TPs)
● Automatic upgrade of the SINAMICS Integrated
The updated data is transferred to the project and the entire project saved.
8.3.8 Upgrading technology packages
Overview
The SIMOTION technology packages (e.g. TP CAM, DCBlib) are available in various versions.
You can only use the functions of the technology objects selected if the technology objects are
available in the target system. You can select the technology packages and their version for
each SIMOTION device. Each version of SIMOTION SCOUT has a kernel (FW version) for the
SIMOTION CPU and an appropriate technology package.
TPs during upgrades

Device replacement (in HW Config), platform replacement (XML export/import), or even
upgrades may cause versions of SIMOTION technology packages (TPs), which are assigned
to individual technology objects (TOs), to change.
● The TP version may change if the main version changes.
The TP version depends on the relevant main version in all cases; it may, however, remain
unchanged through a number of main versions.
● If service packs and hotfixes are installed, there may even be a selection of TP product
versions available for the same TP version.
During device replacement (in HW Config) the TP version is automatically updated. If the TP
version is changed and more than one version of the new TP version is available, the latest
version is automatically installed. If another product version is preferred, this must be set
manually (e.g. selection of V4.1.5.3).
During platform replacement (XML Export/Import) , however, the required technology package
including the TP version and, if necessary, the product version must be selected manually after
the import.
When a SIMOTION CPU is inserted, the TP CAM (latest TP version and product version) is
preset by default.
SIMOTION D410-2
Special displays in the "version" field:

● "Select" means that no TP product version has been selected; this state occurs when older
projects, in which the selection of a specific product version was not supported, are
upgraded. If the project is loaded to the CPU without having previously made a selection,
then the latest available technology package is loaded automatically.
● "---" means that no version can be determined (e.g. for the TP DCBlib or for older CPU
versions < V4.1). If no version can be determined, you must select "---".
Selecting the TP product version

The desired technology package is selected with fine granularity in SIMOTION SCOUT at
"Target device" > "Select technology packages ...".
Figure 8-7 Selecting technology packages (based on the example of the D410-2)
Note
Device diagnostics can provide information on which technology package product version has
been loaded to a CPU.
SIMOTION D410-2
Loading technology packages to the target device

Technology packages are only loaded to the target device if no technology package has been
loaded so far or if "Load to file system" is executed.
If a technology package version changes, the technology package must be explicitly reloaded
to the target device. To do this, proceed as follows:
1. Select "Download project to target system" in SIMOTION SCOUT.
2. Select the "Replace product versions of the technology packages" option at "Additional CPU
options" and confirm with "OK".
For further information, please see the online help for SIMOTION SCOUT.
8.3.9 Upgrading the device version of SINAMICS S120 Control Units
Overview
You can upgrade the device versions of SINAMICS S120 Control Units that are connected to
the SIMOTION D via PROFIBUS or PROFINET in the SIMOTION SCOUT. The SINAMICS
version can only ever be upgraded in a project; it cannot be downgraded.
Note
During device replacement in HW Config, the SINAMICS version of the SINAMICS Integrated
of the SIMOTION D410-2 is automatically upgraded.
During module replacement in HW Config, the selection of a SIMOTION D410-2 module

always defines the SIMOTION and the SINAMICS version.
If a SINAMICS S120 Control Unit is connected via PROFIBUS or PROFINET, the SINAMICS
version can be selected independently of the SINAMICS Integrated version.
SIMOTION D410-2
Procedure
To upgrade a SINAMICS drive unit, proceed as follows:
1. Right-click the relevant device, e.g. the SINAMICS S120 CU310‑2 DP.
2. Select "Target device" > "Upgrade Device Version/Characteristic" in the context menu.
The "Upgrade Device Version/Characteristic" dialog box is displayed. It lists all available
firmware versions.
Figure 8-8 Upgrading the device version
3. Select the desired device version/characteristic and click "Upgrade".

This upgrades the SINAMICS S120 Control Unit.
8.3.10 Upgrade the libraries

Depending on the configured properties of the libraries used in the project (device-dependent
or device-independent), an upgrade of the libraries may be required if the SIMOTION device or
the device version changes.
1. Open the LIBRARIES directory in the project navigator.
2. Select a library, right-click to open the context menu, and select "Properties...."
3. Select the "TPs/TOs" tab in the "Properties" window.
4. Select the SIMOTION device and the technology packages for which the library is to be
valid.
5. Close the dialog box with "OK".
Note
Please also observe the notes on device-dependencies in the SIMOTION SCOUT online
help.
SIMOTION D410-2
8.4 Performing a firmware and project update
8.3.11 Save project, compile and check consistency
Procedure
1. Save and compile the project from the "Project" > "Save and recompile all" menu.
2. Then perform a consistency check with the "Project" > "Check consistency" menu.
If error messages occur, correct these and repeat the operation.
Note
Note the difference between
● "Save and recompile all" and
● "Save and compile changes"
Save and recompile all

All sources of the entire project are recompiled with this command.
The command is suitable if you are quite sure that all the old data from older SCOUT versions
should be removed and replaced with new compilation results.
Use this command if you specifically want to convert a project from an earlier SCOUT version
to a newer version. In this way, you take over all error corrections and optimizations.
Save and compile changes

On this command, the whole project is searched for changes. Therefore only the changes are
compiled. Use this command for day-to-day operations within a SCOUT version.
8.4.1 Upgrading the boot loader on the CompactFlash card

The boot loader may have to be upgraded in the following cases:
● Upgrade of the SIMOTION D
● If a D4x5‑2 CF card is to be used for a D410‑2 (or vice versa).
● Error corrections and optimizations
Generally, we recommend using the latest boot loader available for the respective CF card.
Upgrading the SIMOTION D410‑2 may also render it necessary to upgrade the boot loader of
the CF card.
Detailed information on the CF card, boot loader version, SIMOTION D410-2 hardware, and
SIMOTION firmware version compatibility relationships can be found in the software
SIMOTION D410-2

18857317).
8.4.2 Update - preparatory measures
Upgrading the SIMOTION D410‑2

The actions described in this section also apply to downgrading to an older version.
Various options are available for performing a firmware and/or project update on the
SIMOTION D410‑2:
● Update via CompactFlash card (Page 265)
● Update via SIMOTION IT web server (Page 262)
● Firmware and project update using the device update tool (Page 262)
Note
Upgrading using the device upgrade tool offers a number of advantages (keeping retain
data, option of downgrading, no license key handling, etc.).
We therefore recommend using this method for firmware and/or project updates.
Requirement (firmware update)

The current firmware for SIMOTION D can be found on the Internet at Internet address (https://
Upgrading the SIMOTION D410‑2 automatically upgrades the firmware of all connected
SINAMICS DRIVE-CLiQ components.
Note
Observe the information in the the Read Me files and the upgrade instructions included in the
scope of delivery of new SIMOTION versions.
Use only CF cards that have been approved for use with the SIMOTION D410‑2 and whose
boot loader version is correct.
You can find the compatibility relationships in the software compatibility list at Internet address
(https://support.industry.siemens.com/cs/ww/en/view/18857317).
NOTICE
The upgrade operation deletes all project data and parameters from the CF card!
Back up the data before starting an upgrade.
SIMOTION D410-2
Requirement (project update)

You have updated your project and, if necessary, adapted the device type and device version.
See section Customizing the project (Page 249).
8.4.3 Update via SIMOTION IT web server

SIMOTION D410-2 has an integrated web server.
In addition to customized web pages and comprehensive device/diagnostic information,
SIMOTION IT web server also allows you to update the firmware and project using a standard
PC with a web browser.
You will find detailed information in the SIMOTION IT Diagnostics and Configuration
Diagnostics Manual.
8.4.4 Upgrade via device update tool (upgrading SIMOTION devices)
Overview
SIMOTION D Control Units and projects can be upgraded using previously created upgrade
data.
Performing an upgrade using upgrade data has the following advantages:
● User-friendly creation of upgrade data via SIMOTION SCOUT with the aid of a wizard (at the
machine manufacturer's site)
● SIMOTION devices can be upgraded by the machine operator without the SIMOTION
SCOUT engineering system
● The machine manufacturer can conveniently send upgrade data via e-mail or post to the
machine operator
● There is no need to use license keys, as licenses are retained
● Retain data and unit data is retained when upgrades are performed, even across versions
● An upgrade which has been imported can be discarded again, and the previous
configuration restored
● You can upgrade either a single SIMOTION device or multiple devices from one or more
SIMOTION projects.
● It is possible to upgrade parts of a configuration only, e.g. Technology Packages only,
firmware only, project only, etc.
SIMOTION D410-2
Handling
Upgrade data is created by the application engineer at the machine manufacturer's premises
using SIMOTION SCOUT. The upgrade data can then be handled flexibly depending on both
the SIMOTION device in question (SIMOTION C, D, or P) and the customer requirements:
● Creating upgrade data and then copying it to a storage or upgrade medium:
– CF card
– USB stick (D4x5/D4x5-2 only; not for D410‑2)
– Upgrade file for the SIMOTION IT web server
● Alternatively, the upgrade data can be created and stored in an archive on the PC, with a
view to importing it to an upgrade medium suitable for SIMOTION devices at a later point.
● The process of importing the data to an upgrade medium can be performed at the machine
manufacturer's premises; alternatively, if the upgrade archive has been transferred to the
machine operator, the service engineer can do this on site.
● The service engineer imports the upgrade data on an operator-guided basis (without any
involvement by the application engineer) to the SIMOTION device(s), and upgrades the
SIMOTION devices in the process (SIMOTION SCOUT is not required on site).
Note
If a SIMOTION D410-2 is upgraded with an upgrade archive of a SIMOTION D4x5-2, the
upgrade and the later downgrade fail. In this case, a correct card image (firmware incl. project)
must be loaded to the CF card.
Upgrading with a CF card

1. Switch off the SIMOTION D410‑2 to be updated.
2. Insert the CF card into the SIMOTION D410‑2.
3. Switch on the SIMOTION D410‑2 again. The SIMOTION D410‑2 starts to process the
upgrade data.
The SF/BF LED flashes green (0.5 Hz) during the upgrade.
4. Monitor the green flashing of the SF/BF LED.
– As soon as the upgrade has been completed successfully, the SF LED goes out.
An automatic power-up with the upgraded configuration is then performed
(SF/BF LED display then depends on the associated operating state of the device).
– If the upgrade was not successful, the SF/BF LED flickers red.
SIMOTION D410-2
Downgrading
If the upgrade has not been successful (for example, the machine is not behaving as desired),
the upgrade can be undone as follows:
1. Switch off the SIMOTION D410‑2.
2. Set the service selector switch to the switch position B (service mode: downgrade).
Figure 8-9 Service selector switch, switch position for downgrading
3. Switch the D410‑2 on again.

The flickering green SF/BF LED indicates that restoration is requested.
4. Set the service selector switch back to position "0."
The system restores the data saved during the upgrade. The data from the upgrade will be
deleted.
The downgrade is indicated by a green flashing SF LED (0.5 Hz) and can take several minutes.
After successful restoration, the module starts up automatically. (SF/BF LED display will then
depend on the respective operating state of the device).
If the restore was not successful, the SF/BF LED will flicker red.
Note
For SIMOTION < V4.4, restoration will start when the module is switched on (step 3). For this,
the service selection switch must be rotated to position "0" immediately when the flashing code
is displayed (SF/BF LED flashes green with 0.5 Hz).
If the service selector switch is not reset or not reset in good time to "0," this results in fault state
"Service selector switch is still set to restore" (SF/BF LED flickers red).
In this case, switch the D410‑2 off, reset the service selector switch and switch the D410‑2 on
again. If the restoration was otherwise successful, the D410‑2 boots up with the restored
configuration.
Note
SINAMICS components and on the CF card. During a firmware update, please heed the
messages and alarms in the SIMOTION SCOUT detail window. A firmware update on the
SIMOTION D410‑2 is signaled by the RDY LED flashing yellow, while on the DRIVE-CLiQ
components (TM, SMC, etc.) it is signaled by the RDY LED flashing red/green.
Components that require a POWER ON after the firmware update will indicate this through a
rapidly flashing RDY-LED. Go offline with SCOUT and switch the 24 V supply off/on (POWER
ON) at the respective components for initialization.
SIMOTION D410-2
You will find detailed information for the device upgrade in the Upgrading SIMOTION Devices
Operating Instructions.
8.4.5 Update via CompactFlash card
8.4.5.1 Backup of CompactFlash card data
Backing up licenses, retain data, and user data

Prior to upgrading/downgrading firmware, as a precaution we would generally recommend
backing up the entire content of the CF card to the PG/PC using the card adapter and Windows
Explorer.
How you should proceed to back up and subsequently restore data on the CF card depends on
whether the CF data contains any licenses and/or other retain data and user data which will be
required again in the future.
Case 1: The CF card contains no licenses and no retain or user data that is still required
You do not need to take any steps in this case. Delete the contents of the CF card and install
the firmware as described.
Case 2: The CF card contains licenses (e.g. axis licenses)

Before loading the new firmware, back up the "KEYS" directory to your PC. This can then be
copied back to the CF card once you have installed the new firmware.
Note
The license key is stored in the "KEYS" directory on the CF card. When the SIMOTION device
starts up for the first time, the license key is saved in the boot sector of the CF card.
A license key saved in the boot sector cannot be deleted by means of a user operation; nor can
it be deleted by formatting the CF card or rewriting the boot loader.
If the Keys.txt file is no longer present on the CF card (because the "KEYS" directory has been
deleted, for example), it will be written again from the boot sector to the "KEYS" directory while
the SIMOTION device is starting up. The license key can be changed at any time (by
relicensing, for example). When the device is next started up, the license key will be saved in
the boot sector again.
If you lose the license key, you can get it back via the Web License Manager on the Internet,
at Internet address (http://www.siemens.com/automation/license). You require the hardware
serial number printed on the CF card to do this. In the Web License Manager, you have the
option of displaying the associated license key.
SIMOTION D410-2
Case 3: The CF card contains retain data / user data that is still required in the future
If you are using your application to back up data to the CF card, you must back this up before
upgrading the new firmware.
Example:
● Backing up retain data (non-volatile data saved using _savePersistentMemoryData):
– user\simotion\pmemory.xml
● Backing up SIMOTION IT user files, settings (e.g. trace.xml), task trace data, log files, and
Java files (classes, archives, user data system, etc.), stored in the following directories:
– user\simotion\hmicfg
– user\simotion\hmi
● Backing up configuration data for modular machines in conjunction with the
_activateConfiguration system function, stored in the following directory:
– install\simotion
● Backing up unit data (data saved on the CF card using _saveUnitDataSet/
_exportUnitDataSet), stored in the following directory:
– user\simotion\user dir\<unitname>
Note
When a version is changed, you must use the "Save variables" function to back up data
saved using _saveUnitDataSet or _exportUnitDataSet in a way that is not dependent on
the version. You then have the option of restoring them using "Restore variables."
During an upgrade, the two functions are required only for the backup and restore of unit
data records created with _saveUnitDataSet.
Retain and unit data (saved with _exportUnitDataSet) remain valid even after a version
upgrade.
8.4.5.2 Firmware update using a CompactFlash Card
Procedure
Proceed as follows to perform the upgrade:
1. Switch off the power to the SIMOTION D410‑2.
2. Remove the CF card from the SIMOTION D410‑2 and insert it into the CF card adaptor of
your PC.
3. Open Windows Explorer. The CF card must be visible as a removable data carrier in the
Windows Explorer under an arbitrary drive letter.
4. If necessary, back up the licenses, retain data and user data on the CF card to your PC
(see Backup of CompactFlash card data (Page 265)).
5. Delete all the data from the CF card.
SIMOTION D410-2
6. Unzip the firmware file to the CF card using a ZIP file utility such as WinZip. Always maintain
the file structure when setting up the unpacking tool.
7. Copy the data saved in step 4 back to the appropriate folder structure on the CF card.
8. Remove the CF card from the CF card adapter on your PG/PC.
9. Insert the CF card into the SIMOTION D410‑2.
10.Switch on the power supply for the SIMOTION D410‑2. The new firmware is loaded from the
CF card to the SIMOTION D410‑2 module.
8.4.5.3 Upgrading SINAMICS

Depending on the settings, the SINAMICS components are also automatically upgraded to the
component version of the CF card with a firmware update of the SIMOTION D.
In order for a FW update to be performed for all components, the components must be correctly
connected in accordance with the configured topology.
The CONTENT.TXT file in the main directory of the CF card contains the component version.
Upgrading the firmware of SINAMICS components automatically

When starting up, the system automatically upgrades or downgrades all DRIVE-CLiQ
components to the version of the component firmware on the CF card. Components that cannot
be downgraded to the component firmware version on the CF card (for example, old firmware
on the CF card and new components to which the old firmware cannot be loaded) retain their
firmware version. The resulting firmware version combinations are always functional.
Note
SINAMICS components and on the CF card. During an FW update, please take note of the
messages and alarms in the SIMOTION SCOUT detail window. A firmware update on the
SIMOTION D410-2 is signaled by the RDY LED flashing yellow, while on the DRIVE-CLiQ
components (TM, SMC, etc.) it is signaled by the RDY LED flashing red/green.
Components requiring POWER ON following a firmware update signal this by means of the fast
flashing RDY LED. Go offline with SCOUT and switch the 24 V supply to the relevant
SIMOTION D410-2
Updating the firmware of the SINAMICS components

The SINAMICS components' firmware is updated automatically, depending on the setting of
parameter p7826.
● p7826 = 0: Upgrade/downgrade deactivated
● p7826 = 1: Upgrade and downgrade (factory setting)
● p7826 = 2: Upgrade only
Note
The automatic FW update via p7826 = 1 (upgrade and downgrade) must not be deactivated
when Safety Integrated is used.
If you are updating the firmware manually, proceed as follows:

1. Select the SINAMICS component in the Project Navigator, e.g. SINAMICS Integrated.
2. Double-click "Overview" in the Project Navigator.
The "SINAMICS_Integrated - Overview" dialog box opens with a list of available drive
objects.
3. Click "Version overview" to open the list of connected SINAMICS components.
4. Go online and select the devices whose firmware you wish to update.
The list displays the current firmware version of the devices.
5. Click "Firmware update" to download the new firmware to the devices. To do so, you must
select all components whose firmware is to be updated.
6. When the firmware update is complete, switch the 24 V power supply off and back on again.
The device is now ready for operation.
Note
The SINAMICS components must be configured for a firmware update to take place. The
firmware cannot be updated if the components have not been configured.
You can also update the firmware using the expert list. See the SINAMICS S120
Commissioning Manual for a description of how to do this.
8.4.5.4 Download project to target system

Once all the changes required for upgrading your project have been made, you must download
the project to the SIMOTION D410-2.
Requirement
The firmware required is located on the CompactFlash card; for information, refer to the section
titled Firmware update using a CompactFlash Card (Page 266).
You have recompiled the project and checked it for consistency. See Section Save project,
compile and check consistency (Page 260).

8.5 SIMOTION CompactFlash card
Procedure
2. Click "Connect to selected target systems" to establish a connection to the target system.
3. Execute "Download project to target system" and then "Copy RAM to ROM" to download the
upgraded project to the CompactFlash card as well.
4. Because of the automatic follow-up configuration in the SINAMICS Integrated drive, you
must now execute "Load CPU / drive unit to PG".
5. Save the project.
Note
When upgrading SINAMICS drive units (e.g. SINAMICS Integrated) only the p parameters
(setting parameters) are loaded into the upgraded project. The r parameters (monitoring
parameters) are not loaded.
The r parameters in the drive unit are derived or calculated from an automatic subsequent
parameterization and must therefore be uploaded to the project.
To do this, execute "Load CPU/drive unit to PG".
If the upload cannot be performed, this can lead to inconsistencies in the drive parameterization
dialog boxes.
8.5.1 Changing the CompactFlash card
Requirement
NOTICE
SIMOTION D410-2
Procedure
To change the CF card, proceed as follows:
1. Switch off the power supply.
2. Remove the CF card from the plug-in slot on the SIMOTION D410-2.
To do this, grasp the gripping cavity between your thumb and forefinger and pull the card out.
3. Gently insert the new CF card into the empty plug-in slot until it clicks into place. The
direction of insertion of the CF card is indicated by an arrow located on both the plug-in slot
and the CF card.
The properly inserted card does not protrude from the SIMOTION D410-2 housing.
4. Switch the power supply on again.
8.5.2 Writing to a CompactFlash card
Overview
You have the following options of writing data to a CompactFlash card:
● Writing to a CompactFlash card that is inserted in a SIMOTION D
The PG/PC must be online to SIMOTION D410-2 in order to execute this function.
● Writing to a CompactFlash card without a SIMOTION D module
This function requires a CompactFlash card adapter.
Note
CompactFlash cards are always shipped in formatted state. It contains the
SIMOTION Kernel (SIMOTION D firmware).
Trouble-free operation of the CompactFlash card can only be guaranteed if you do not
modify its partitioning.
Writing to a CompactFlash card that is inserted in the SIMOTION D

The CompactFlash card can be used as storage volume for technology and user data
(programs, configuration data and parameters) from the "volatile data" area. Proceed as
follows:
1. Establish the connection between the SIMOTION D410-2 and the PG/PC (see
Section Creating a project and configuring the communication (Page 87)).
2. Select the "Copy RAM to ROM" command in SIMOTION SCOUT to write the data to your
CompactFlash card.
SIMOTION D410-2
Writing to a CompactFlash card without a SIMOTION D module

A CompactFlash card adapter must be installed on the PG/PC and can be used to write data
to the CompactFlash card. Always save your project data to CompactFlash card using the PG/
PC before you update the SIMOTION firmware, for example.
Note
Do not use any of the onboard tools in Windows to modify or delete files which were written to
the CompactFlash cardCompactFlash card using the "Copy RAM to ROM" function in
SIMOTION SCOUT. Such actions may irrevocably destroy your project.
8.5.3 Formatting the CompactFlash card

You can format a faulty CF card, for example.
Before formatting the CF card, please observe the notes in Section Backup of CompactFlash
card data (Page 265).
Proceed as follows to format the CF card:
1. Insert the CF card into a CF card adapter connected to your PG/PC.
2. Format the CF card in Windows (FAT, FAT16 or FAT32 file system).
The CF card is formatted.
3. If the CF card boot loader is also defective, you will have to rewrite it.
Note
The CF card may not formatted with NTFS.
The following formats are permitted: FAT, FAT16 and FAT32.
Because of the improved memory utilization on the CF card, FAT32 formatting is preferable.
SIMOTION D410-2 CF cards are supplied as standard with FAT32 formatting.
8.5.4 Boot loader on the CompactFlash card
Writing a boot loader

A boot loader may need to be written in the following situations:
● A new boot loader is required for the used SIMOTION D410‑2 firmware version.
● A new boot loader is required for the used SIMOTION D410‑2 hardware.
● The boot loader is defective.
● A D4x5‑2 CF card is to be used for SIMOTION D410‑2.
The boot loader version can be fetched using SIMOTION SCOUT device diagnostics. If this is
not possible, the boot loader version may be incorrect.
SIMOTION D410-2
A potential fault description could be as follows:

The SIMOTION D410‑2 does not power up, the RDY LED flashes red at 0.5 Hz and the RUN/
STOP LED lights up red, or all the LEDs remain off.
In this case, replace the boot loader version with the current version.
Use the "Options > Write boot sector..." function to write the boot loader version in SIMOTION
SCOUT to the CF card.
Note
You require PG/PC administrator rights to write to the boot sector. If you do not have
administrator rights on your PG/PC, an administrator can enter an administrator login for you
to use this function at "Options" > "Settings" > "Rights."
Detailed information on the CF card, boot loader version, SIMOTION D410-2 hardware, and
SIMOTION firmware version compatibility relationships can be found in the software

Note
Note that the CF cards for SIMOTION D4x5‑2 and D410 can have a different boot loader!
8.5.5 Recommended method of handling CompactFlash cards
Handling CF cards correctly

Note the following points when working with the CF card:
● The CF card may only be inserted or removed when the system is de-energized.
NOTICE
De-energize the SIMOTION D410‑2 device before inserting or removing the
CompactFlash card. The SIMOTION D410‑2 is in a de-energized state when all the LEDs
are OFF.
● CF cards are not designed to be rewritten as many times as the user wishes.
With this in mind, you should avoid writing user data from the application to the CF card
cyclically. Depending on the system, a write operation from the application may trigger one
or more write operations on the CF card.
We therefore recommend that the user program does not make more than 100,000 write
accesses over the estimated service life of the application.
SIMOTION D410-2
● Never switch off the SIMOTION D Control Unit during write accesses to the CF card. If the
SIMOTION D Control Unit is switched off during write accesses, this can result in destruction
of the data and, in the worst case, to damage to the file system (FAT Table = directory) on
the CF card.
If the FAT table is destroyed, the CF card will have to be reformatted and the firmware/user
data reloaded. During this process the licenses remain on the CF card.
The FAT table can be destroyed if updating the FAT table is interrupted by switching off the
SIMOTION D Control Unit. The FAT table is updated, for example, by functions such
as _exportUnitDataSet, copy RAM to ROM, or save SINAMICS NVRAM data via p7775.
The FAT table can also be destroyed if you pull a CF card out of a CF card adapter while
Windows is accessing the CF card.
● The following functions do not update the FAT table:
– _saveUnitDataSet (writing the data to an existing file)
– savePersistentMemoryData (as of V4.4: writing the data to an existing file)
Once the backup files have been created with _saveUnitDataSet /
savePersistentMemoryData, this also results in updating the FAT table.
8.5.6 Card reader for CompactFlash cards

Because of the quickly changing market and the large differences in the quality of card readers,
no specific recommendation can be made (except for the following card reader).
If problems occur identifying the CF card, this may be due to an incorrect power up of the card
reader.
Designation and ordering data
Card reader for CF/SD memory media
with USB connection
Article number: 6FC5 335-0AA00-0AA0
8.5.7 License key on the CF card

Depending on the type and number of runtime functions used in the project, licenses must be
purchased as part of the licensing procedure for SIMOTION.
For further information on the licensing of runtime functions, see (https://
support.industry.siemens.com/cs/en/en/view/42014324)
The licenses required for SIMOTION D are assigned to an individual license key for the CF card
(license key cannot be transferred to another CF card).
The license key must be stored in the \KEYS\SIMOTION directory in the keys.txt file on the CF
card.
SIMOTION D410-2
Backup in the boot sector

The license key is stored in the "KEYS" directory on the CF card. When the SIMOTION D
Control Unit is ramped up for the first time, the license key is backed up in the boot sector of the
CF card.
A license key saved in the boot sector cannot be deleted by means of a user operation; nor can
it be deleted by formatting the CF card or rewriting the boot loader.
If the keys.txt file is no longer present on the CF card (e.g. because the "KEYS" directory has
been deleted), it will be written again from the boot sector to the "KEYS" directory while the
SIMOTION D Control Unit is ramping up. The license key can be changed at any time (e.g.
through relicensing). At the next power-up, the license key is backed up in the boot sector again.
Loss of the license key

In the event of the loss of a license key, a copy can be obtained via the Web License Manager
at the following Internet address (http://www.siemens.com/automation/license). You require
the hardware serial number printed on the CF card to do this. You can display the associated
license key in the Web License Manager. The license file (Keys.txt) is also offered as download.
Notes for Keys.txt

● If a firmware card image is unpacked on the CF card, a KEYS directory is not available per
default.
● If the CF card ramps-up without a KEYS directory in a controller, an empty file structure
(\KEYS\SIMOTION) is created.
● The keys.txt must be stored in this directory (\KEYS\SIMOTION\keys.txt).
● If the directory contains a keys.txt with an invalid license key, this is deleted from the keys.txt
when the controller ramps up, i.e. the keys.txt file exists, but is empty.
● If the directory contains a keys.txt with a valid license key, this is also stored in the boot
sector of the CF card as backup when the controller ramps up.
● The keys.txt can be written online via SCOUT, with a CF card reader, or via a set up remote
access (FTP).
● When licensing via the Web License Manager, you receive a keys.txt that you must store on
the CF card under \KEYS\SIMOTION
● It is also possible to create this text file yourself (without formatting) with a text editor (e.g.
Notepad). In this case, make sure that only the license key and a line break (CR/LF) is
contained in the file.
● If the SF LED flashes slowly in red (0.5 Hz) after the control has ramped up, then either the
keys.txt file is faulty (error in the license key, formatting or file/directory name) or the
licensing is not adequate for the used objects that require a license.

If IRT data has been configured for SIMOTION, the PROFINET
interface generates a local substitute cycle clock as long as
there is no synchronization to the send cycle clock of PROFI‐
NET IO with IRT:
SIMOTION task system has synchronized to the local substi‐

cycle clock of PROFINET IO with IRT.
SINAMICS Integrated and the external isochronous DP inter‐
face are synchronized to the send cycle clock of PROFINET IO
with IRT.
If no isochronous IRT data has been configured for SIMO‐
TION, this state indicates that only the PROFINET interface is
synchronized to the send cycle clock of PROFINET IO with
IRT. The PROFINET interface is then used to forward the IRT
data.

9.2 Diagnostic data and non-volatile SIMOTION data
9.2.1 Overview
On the basis of simple operations (e.g. by setting the switch position) and without the need for
the SIMOTION SCOUT engineering system, you can
● Back up diagnostic data, including non-volatile SIMOTION data (retain data) on a CF card:
– Save diagnostic data during running operation (Page 283)
– Save diagnostic data during the startup (Page 284)
● Back up HTML pages (including the most up-to-date content) to the CF card for diagnostic
purposes; for information, see Section Diagnostics via HTML pages (Page 287).
● Restore backed-up non-volatile SIMOTION data (retain data); for information, see
Section Delete/restore non-volatile SIMOTION data (Page 288).
9.2.2 Backup of diagnostic data and non-volatile SIMOTION data
9.2.2.1 Diagnostics data

Following a fault on a SIMOTION device, diagnostic data (e.g. diagnostic buffer content, up-to-
date content of HTML pages, etc.) can provide important information on the cause of the fault.
For this purpose, data can be backed up to the CF card with a "simple operator action" (e.g. via
service selector switch or DIAG button on the SIMOTION D410-2).
You then have the following options for the diagnostic data:
● Fetching them from the CF card using a card reader
● You can load it with the SIMOTION IT web server or by FTP
You can also use them for diagnostic purposes or provide Technical Support with them for
evaluation purposes.
Various options are available to you for backing up diagnostic data:
● Backup during operation (in STOP/STOPU/RUN operating state)
– with SIMOTION IT web server;
The web server also offers the possibility of fetching the diagnostic data online.
– Via the DIAG button
– Via the service selector switch
● Backup during the module startup
– Via the DIAG button
– Via the service selector switch
– Controlling diagnostic data creation using an INI file stored on the CF card
SIMOTION D410-2
Diagnostics
9.2.2.2 Non-volatile SIMOTION data (retain data)

In addition to the diagnostic data, non-volatile SIMOTION data (retain data) is also saved on the
CompactFlash card. Use the function when the non-volatile SIMOTION data has not been
saved on the CompactFlash card using the _savePersistentMemoryData system function but
you wish to restore the non-volatile SIMOTION data after a CPU has been replaced.
Note
While the non-volatile SIMOTION data is stored as a "PMEMORY.XML" backup file in the
"...USER\SIMOTION" directory using the _savePersistentMemoryData system function,
backing up diagnostic data and non-volatile data stores the data in the "...\USER\SIMOTION
\HMI\SYSLOG\DIAG" directory.
9.2.3 Save diagnostic data during running operation
Options
The advantage of backing up diagnostic data and non-volatile SIMOTION data during
operation is that enhanced diagnostic information via HTML pages and TO alarm information
is available.
Data are backed up:
● Using "Diagnostics > Diagnostics Files" in SIMOTION IT web server; see Section Back up
diagnostic data and non-volatile SIMOTION data via the web server (Page 290)
● Via the DIAG button
● Via the service selector switch
Backup of the data via the DIAG pushbutton (preferred solution)

The diagnostic data and non-volatile SIMOTION data can be created in the STOP, STOPU,
and RUN operating states.
1. Press the DIAG pushbutton.
The diagnostic data and non-volatile SIMOTION data are backed up to the CF card.
The backup task progress is displayed by the RUN/STOP LED flickering yellow.
2. The backup is finished when the RUN/STOP LED flickers green.
Switch off the SIMOTION D410-2.
3. Remove the CF card.
Backup of the data using the service selector switch (alternative)

The positions of the mode switch are not relevant, i.e. the set operating mode remains
unchanged.

3. Remove the CF card and reset the service selector switch to its original setting.
9.2.4 Save diagnostic data during the startup
Options
Backing up diagnostic data and non-volatile SIMOTION data during power-up provides you
with diagnostic information without HTML pages / TO alarm information.
"Backing up during startup" is particularly advisable for SIMOTION devices that cannot run or
have crashed.
Diagnostic data and non-volatile SIMOTION data are backed up
● Via the service selector switch
● Via the DIAG button
● Using an INI file saved on the CF card.

3. Wait for the device to ramp up.

The diagnostic data and non-volatile SIMOTION data are backed up to the CF card during
power-up provided this is still possible and is not prevented by hardware defects, etc.
5. Remove the CF card and reset the service selector switch to its original setting.
Backup of the data via the DIAG pushbutton (alternative)

1. Switch off the SIMOTION D410-2.
2. Press the DIAG button and hold it down. Switch on the SIMOTION D410‑2 again.
3. Wait for the device to ramp up.
The diagnostic data and non-volatile SIMOTION data are backed up to the CF card during
power-up provided this is still possible and is not prevented by hardware defects, etc.
Release the DIAG pushbutton and switch the SIMOTION D410‑2 off.
Note
When backing up data during power-up, the DIAG button must be held down until the backup
is completed. As this can easily take 20‑30 seconds, it is better to use the service selector
switch with switch position "D" for a backup during power-up.
INI file in the main directory of the CF card

1. Use a text editor (such as Notepad) to create a file called simotion.ini
2. Add the following text: DIAG_FILES=1
You must use a text editor and may not use any formatting in the text.
3. Copy the simotion.ini file to the main directory of the CF card.
4. Insert the CF card into the module, which is switched off.
5. Switch the SIMOTION D410-2 on and allow the SIMOTION device to start up.
The diagnostic data and non-volatile SIMOTION data are backed up to the data medium
during startup provided this is still possible and is not prevented by hardware faults, etc.
SIMOTION D410-2
Diagnostics
Note
To suppress startup in diagnostics mode again, you must delete the simotion.ini file from the
CF card.
9.2.5 Storing the diagnostic data and non-volatile SIMOTION data

You can find diagnostic data and non-volatile SIMOTION data on the CF card in the \USER
\SIMOTION\HMI\SYSLOG\DIAG directory.
Copy these data and transfer them to Technical Support when requested to do so. A standard
card reader can be used to transfer the diagnostic data from the CF card via standard
SIMOTION IT web server pages or via FTP.
The following data are stored:
Table 9-5 Diagnostic data on the CF card
File Application
DIAGBUF.TXT Diagnostic buffer in a simple text format:
Numerical values; no specific plain text. A text editor is used for evaluation purpo‐
ses.
PMEMORY.XML Non-volatile SIMOTION data (retain data)
An operator action can be used to restore the backed up non-volatile SIMOTION
data after a CPU has been replaced
See Delete/restore non-volatile SIMOTION data (Page 288)
TOALARMS.TXT Text file containing the pending TO alarms. Only TO IDs, alarm numbers, and
associated HEX values.
Note: The TO alarms are only created if diagnostic data has been created during
operation (STOP/STOPU/RUN).
HTML page If the diagnostic data are backed up, the URLs are requested from the text file
(DIAGURLS.TXT) and stored as HTML pages together with their content.
See Diagnostics via HTML pages (Page 287)
Note: The HTML pages are only stored if diagnostic data are created during oper‐
ation (STOP/STOPU/RUN).
Other files All other files stored in the directory are only of relevance to Technical Support.
Note
Use HTML pages if you wish to back up diagnostic data in plain-text format. HTML pages
enable user-friendly diagnostics. In addition to the standard SIMOTION IT web server pages,
you have the option of creating your own HTML pages (e.g. for the axis status or for machine
diagnostics). Customized diagnostics pages are particularly suitable for application problems,
as you can define the contents yourself.
SIMOTION D410-2
Diagnostics
9.2.6 Diagnostics via websites

In the "DIAGURLS.TXT" text file, located in the ...\USER\SIMOTION\HMI\SYSLOG\DIAG
directory, you can specify HTML files whose state will be stored on the CF card when diagnostic
data is created during operation. For example, "devinfo.mwsl" must be entered for the
"devinfo.mwsl" website.
Since the pages in question are stored together with their most up-to-date contents, this
enables the latest status information regarding the SIMOTION device, as well as the machine/
system, from the point at which diagnostic data was created (e.g. when the service selector
switch was activated) to be archived.
In addition to the standard SIMOTION IT web server pages, it is possible to store customized
pages. Information on creating pages of this type can be found in, for example, an FAQ of the
Utilities & Applications.
A tutorial on the creation of user-defined websites is also contained on the Utilities &
Applications-DVD.
Figure 9-5 Diagnostic buffer at the point when diagnostic data was created
The following points must be noted for the DIAGURLS.TXT file:

● A DIAGURLS.TXT file containing the standard websites is automatically created if you have
not stored your own DIAGURLS.TXT file.
● Standard websites are entered "without" specifying a path (e.g. "devinfo.mwsl" for the
standard website "devinfo.mwsl").
● User websites (such as "user.mwsl") in the \USER\SIMOTION\HMI\FILES directory on the
CF card must contain the FILES/ path specification.
● If you have created subfolders (e.g. "myfolder" in the FILES directory), these must also
appear in the path.
● Only one file name may be used per line.
SIMOTION D410-2
Diagnostics
● Empty lines are not permitted (an empty line will be interpreted as the end of the list).
● No distinction is made between upper-case and lower-case letters.
● It does not matter whether you use "\" or "/" in the path name.

9.2.7 Delete/restore non-volatile SIMOTION data
9.2.7.1 Overview
Requirement
The non-volatile SIMOTION data have been backed up on the CF card by one of the following
methods:
● by system function (_savePersistentMemoryData), see also Section Operations and their
effect on the user memory (Page 74)
● manually by service selector switch / Web server / DIAG button, see Section Backup of
diagnostic data and non-volatile SIMOTION data (Page 282).
Procedure
The non-volatile SIMOTION data is restored automatically during a module replacement, see
Section Replacing modules in the spare part scenario (Page 81). The non-volatile data can also
be restored manually (by manual operation).
SIMOTION D410-2
Diagnostics
The CF card may contain backups of non-volatile SIMOTION data in various storage locations:
● data backed up with the system function _savePersistentMemoryData
Storage location on CF card:
– /USER/SIMOTION/PMEMORY.XML
– /USER/SIMOTION/PMEMORY.BAK (backup file)
● manually by service selector switch / Web server / DIAG button, backed-up data
Storage location on CF card:
– /USER/SIMOTION/HMI/SYSLOG/DIAG/PMEMORY.XML
On manual restoration, the position of the service selector switch defines which of these data
will be preferably restored.
During restoration, the non-volatile SIMOTION data is first deleted and then the non-volatile
SIMOTION data is restored via the PMEMORY backup file.
If restoration is not possible (e.g. file does not exist or corrupt), the next file in the priority list is
accessed.

9.2.8 Back up diagnostic data and non-volatile SIMOTION data via the web server
SIMOTION devices provide a web server with already prepared standard web pages. These
pages can be displayed via Ethernet using a commercially available browser. Additionally, you
have the option of creating your own HTML pages and incorporating service and diagnostic
information.
Diagnostic data and non-volatile SIMOTION data can be backed up via the web server. The
home page of the web server is opened by entering the IP address of the SIMOTION device in
the address line of the browser; e.g. http://169.254.11.22
This opens the home page of the web server. To back up diagnostic data and non-volatile data,
call the "Diagnostic files" page from the "Diagnostics" menu.

9.3 Additional service and diagnostics options
9.2.9 Storing diagnostics data and trace on the CF card

As of V4.5, the following data can be saved to the CF card with
the _saveTraceAndDiagnosticFiles system function:
● Diagnostics data (same data as when the DIAG button is actuated)
● TO trace
● Device trace
The function can be used, for example, to collect diagnostic information (e.g. in the event of a
fault) locally on the machine and without backing up SCOUT. The function saves the available
data in a ZIP file, whereby the file name and the archive directory can be specified.
The packed data can be accessed, for example, via the web server.
9.3.1 SIMOTION Task Profiler application

The SIMOTION Task Profiler is a dedicated application installed parallel to SIMOTION SCOUT
during SIMOTION SCOUT setup. The Task Profiler can be called in online mode using device
diagnostics in SIMOTION SCOUT or the Windows application. In the event of a malfunction or
error, the Task Trace data can be written to a directory or the CompactFlash card. It can then
be processed using the Task Trace Viewer.
For detailed information, refer to the SIMOTION Task Trace Function Manual.
9.3.2 Diagnostics via the SIMOTION IT web server

SIMOTION D410-2 has an integrated web server. Use is not subject to a license.
In addition to customized websites and the option of performing firmware and project updates,
SIMOTION IT web server provides comprehensive device and diagnostic information that can
be called using a standard PC with a web browser.
Security concept of HTTP/S, FTP, and Telnet access on the web server
As of version V4.4, access to the SIMOTION IT web server is protected by a multi-level security
concept.
The security state of the web server is indicated by the security level on the website. This
security level can have three different stages: Low, normal, high.
Security Level Low
SIMOTION D410-2
Diagnostics
The device is supplied with an empty user database. No projects exist yet. The security level
is low to allow configuration of the device.
● In this state, access to the web server as an anonymous user is possible to enable use of
functions such as the project and firmware update or OPC XML.
● Access to the FTP and Telnet is also possible.
● New users can be entered in the empty user database.
In this state, series commissioning is possible via the web server.
NOTICE
Protecting the device
Security level low should only be used for commissioning and service as otherwise the device
is not adequately access protected.
Security Level Normal

The controller has a user database. There is a project on the controller; HTTP, HTTPS, FTP,
and Telnet have been activated in the HW Config.
User password authentication is mandatory for access to websites with sensitive content (e.g.
firmware update watch table, ...), FTP, and Telnet.
Security Level High
High security with maximum access protection:
HTTP, HTTPS, FTP, and Telnet have been deactivated via HW Config. Access to the Ethernet
via the various ports of the services is then no longer possible.
State transition from security level low to normal
After taking delivery of the device, the user creates a project and loads it onto the device. This
can be done by using the download functions of the SCOUT, by loading it directly onto the
memory card (e.g. also via FTP), or via the Manage Config website, Device update tab.
Whichever method is used, the act of loading a project onto the device corresponds to a
transition from security level low to security level normal from the point of view of the web server.
Resetting the security level from normal to low
If the user forgets to edit the UserDataBase.xml during initial commissioning, it will no longer be
possible to access FTP, web services, or access-protected pages during use.
If there is no mechanical access to the memory card or the device, this can be achieved with
the SCOUT function "Delete user data on card". After setting up the user administration, the
project must be downloaded again.
Alternatives without SCOUT:

Setting the service selector switch to position "8" restores security level low (SIMOTION IT
service mode). Using this method, the device can always be reset to security level low by
hardware means.
SIMOTION D410-2
Diagnostics
The following behavior must be taken into account:

● The "Service mode" is activated by turning the SVC switch to position "8".
● If the switch is already set to "8" at ramp-up, it is ignored (protection against forgetfulness).
● The service mode stops immediately when position "8" is exited.
● The service mode stops automatically after 120 minutes.
● It is possible to retrigger 120 minute timeout at any time by turning the switch briefly from "8"
to "7" and back, for example.
● The service mode is indicated (as for underlicensing) through slow red flashing of the SF
LED.
Note
As an alternative to switch position "8," security level low can also be activated via a simotion.ini
file in the main directory of the CF card.
To achieve this, use a text editor (such as Notepad) to create a file called simotion.ini Add the
following text: SERVICE_SELECTOR_MODE=8
You must use a text editor and may not use any formatting in the text.
To exit security level low again, undo the changes you have made.

Configuring drive-related I/Os (without symbolic
assignment) A
A.1 Overview
The configuration of local measuring inputs is fundamentally different to the configuration
of global measuring inputs.
The assignment of the local measuring inputs is permanently related to the hardware of the
control unit and is performed
● On the drive side via the drive expert list and
● During the configuration of the TO measuringInput via the measuring input number.
Local and global measuring inputs have different properties. Detailed information concerning
the differences can be found in Section Local and global measuring inputs (Page 295).
Information about the configuration can be found
● for global measuring inputs (with symbolic assignment) in Section Configuring global
measuring inputs (Page 196)
● for local measuring inputs in the appendix, in Section Configuring local measuring inputs
(Page 297).
Further information and programming examples for configuring drive-related I/Os without
symbolic assignment can be found
● at Internet address (https://support.industry.siemens.com/cs/ww/en/view/29063656)
● in the SIMOTION Utilities & Applications
A.2 Local and global measuring inputs
Local and global measuring inputs

Depending on the used hardware platform, the following local and global measuring inputs are
available for the measuring tasks:
● Local measuring inputs are axis-related and implemented in the SINAMICS drive. The
measurement records the actual position value.
● Global measuring inputs can be freely assigned to the axes and add an internal time stamp
to the measurement result for more precise determination of the axis positions.
The term "central measuring input" is also used within the context of drives.

Properties
Local measuring inputs are always permanently assigned to an axis (drive). They are
configured separately for each drive. The drive and the measuring input must always be located
on the same control unit. The measurement results are transferred using the axis message
frame in accordance with the PROFIdrive profile. Message frame 39x does not need to be
configured for local measuring inputs.
The settings for the use of the local measuring inputs must be made in the expert list.
Procedure
To use an I/O terminal on the SIMOTION D410-2 or SINAMICS Control Unit as a measuring
input, proceed as follows:
1. Double-click the "Inputs/outputs" entry below the control unit in the project navigator.
2. Configure the desired I/O terminal as input in the "Bidirectional digital I/Os" tab. The
configuration can also be set channel-granular on the p0728 parameter using the expert list
of the control unit.
SIMOTION D410-2
The specification of the measuring input terminal must be performed at the local measuring
inputs in the expert list of the respective drive (refer to the following table).

ESD guidelines C
C.1 ESD definition
What does ESD mean?

Electrostatic sensitive devices (ESDs) are individual components, integrated circuits, modules
or devices that may be damaged by either electrostatic fields or electrostatic discharge.
NOTICE
Damage caused by electric fields or electrostatic discharge
Electric fields or electrostatic discharge can result in malfunctions as a result of damaged
individual parts, integrated circuits, modules or devices.
● Only pack, store, transport and send electronic components, modules or devices in their
original packaging or in other suitable materials, e.g conductive foam rubber or aluminum
foil.
● Only touch components, modules and devices if you are first grounded by applying one of
the following measures:
– Wearing an ESD wrist strap
– Wearing ESD shoes or ESD grounding straps in ESD areas with conductive flooring
● Only place electronic components, modules or devices on conductive surfaces (table with
ESD surface, conductive ESD foam, ESD packaging, ESD transport container).
C.2 Electrostatic charging of individuals

Any person who is not conductively connected to the electrical potential of the environment can
accumulate an electrostatic charge.
This figure indicates the maximum electrostatic charges that can accumulate on an operator
when he comes into contact with the indicated materials. These values comply with the
specifications in IEC 801-2.

C.3 Basic measures for protection against discharge of static electricity
Ensure sufficient grounding

When working with electrostatic sensitive devices, make sure that the you, your workstation,
and the packaging are properly grounded. This prevents the accumulation of static electricity.
Avoid direct contact

You should only touch ESD components if unavoidable (for example, during maintenance
work). When you touch modules, make sure that you do not touch either the pins on the
modules or the printed conductors. If you follow these instructions, electrostatic discharge
cannot reach or damage sensitive components.
If you have to take measurements on a module, make sure that you first discharge any static
that may have accumulated in your body. To do this, touch a grounded metal object. Only use
grounded measuring instruments.
