Newer versions of the module are normally compatible in terms of functionality; You can load the configuration data of the sample project on your module without needing to make changes. Please read the information in the manual of the CPs on the topic of compatibility and replacing devices!
Alternatives: You can adapt the sample configuration to suit your own situation. Possible modifications are outlined below:
S S7-300 instead of S7-400

Instead of S7-400 stations, you can also use S7-300 stations (for example with the CP 343-1). The appropriate adaptations must be made in HW Config and in the user program. You must also use different FC types with an S7-300.
S Using a different CPU type S Doing without simulation modules

This only requires slight modification in the user programs (no output to the simulation module). It is then possible to monitor communication by displaying data blocks on the PG.
S Using other input/output modules

This may mean that module addresses are changed.
S Changing the order of the modules in the rack

This may mean that module addresses are changed with certain CPU types.
20
Notice If you change the module address in the configuration, you must also adapt the user program and the configured connection.

Programming Functions (FCs) for Communication Two functions (FCs) are available for handling communication on the ISO transport connections, as follows:
S AG_SEND (FC5)
This block transfers the user data from the specified user data area to the Ethernet CP for transmission.
S AG_RECV (FC6)
This block enters the received user data in the user data area specified in the call.
The user program in our example was written in STL notation. As an example, the parameter assignment for calling AG_SEND and AG_RECV in S7 station 1 is shown below.
STL call fc 5 ACT := ID := LADDR := SEND := LEN := DONE := ERROR := STATUS := M 50.0 1 W#16#0110 P#db30.dbx1.0 byte 240, 4 M 1.2 M 1.3 MW 200
Explanation //AG_SEND block call //Bit for triggering job //Connection ID //Module address 272Dec. in hardware conf. //Data area to be transferred // Length of the data area to be sent (4 bytes // Memory bit for return parameter DONE // Memory bit for return parameter ERROR // Memory word for return parameter STATUS
STL call fc 6 ID LADDR RECV NDR ERROR STATUS LEN := := := := := := := 1 W#16#0110 P#DB31.DBX 1.0 BYTE 240 M1.0 M1.1 MW202 MW10
Explanation //AG_RECV block call // //Connection ID //Module address 512Dec. in hardware conf. //Data area for receive data // Memory bit for return parameter NDR // Memory bit for return parameter ERROR // Memory word for return parameter STATUS // Area for length of received data
To see the complete code contained in these FCs, and the other OBs and FCs, please refer to the printouts of the sample project.
31
Setting Block Parameters Automatically

To ensure correct parameter settings for the block calls, The LAD/STL/FBD editor in STEP 7 provides you with the option of accepting all the relevant parameters from the hardware configuration (HW Config) and from the connection configuration automatically. When assigning the parameter values for the block in the user program, follow the steps outlined below:
n Select the block call and its block parameters; n Select the menu command Connections... with the right mouse button. n Depending on the block type, you can now select the connection intended for the block or
module from a list.
n Confirm your selection; as far as possible, the available parameter values are entered in the
block call. FCs AG_LSEND/ AG_LRECV for longer data areas (CP 4431) The newer versions of the Ethernet CPs with the FCs AG_LSEND (FC50) and AG_LRECV can transfer larger data areas (up to 8192 bytes). Please check the manual of your CP for the supported data area and, if applicable, use the appropriate FCs. Working with the FCs is explained in the manual.
32
Extending the Sample Program You can also extend the sample program or later your own applications. Some possibilities are shown below:
S Evaluation of the result codes of the FCs AG_SEND and AG_RECV to allow you to react to
specific statuses in your system.
S Conditional initiation of communication calls depending on result codes, so that, for example,
the send call on the client is only triggered again after the job confirmation has been received with the receive call.
n Evaluate the parameters DONE, ERROR and

STATUS for AG_SEND and NDR, ERROR and STATUS for AG_RECV. You evaluate these parameters as shown below: Job
For more information about status bits
Manual /3/ Section 4.2
DONE/NDR = 1 ERROR = 0 STATUS = 0
DONE/NDR = 0 ERROR = 0 STATUS = 8180/8181
DONE/NDR = 0 ERROR = 1 STATUS = x
Completed without error
Active
Terminated with error

Typical error codes that must be handled by the user program: 8302H Lack of resources on partner 8311H Destination station not (yet) obtainable (e.g. due to startup) 80C3H Resources occupied (due to maximum load on S7-400) 80D2H Module start address wrong (e.g. you forgot to change the address after moving a module) 8304H Connection not yet established
Example without simulation module If you do not want to use simulation modules, simply deactivate the output T QW ... in the FC31 blocks on Simatic 400 station 1 and 2. You can then follow the execution of the program by displaying the data blocks online in STEP 7/STL.
33
To download the user program to the PLC... ...follow the steps outlined below:
n Change the CPU to STOP or RUN-P. n Select the Blocks container in the appropriate station in the SIMATIC Manager. n Download the entire program (except for the system data) to the S7 station using the PLC"
Download menu command.
Note: In the RUN-P mode, the block order is important since the CPU cycle is active. Make sure that OB100 is only executed during startup.
n Change the CPU to RUN-P or RUN.

n Repeat the download procedure for the other station.

Summary of Step 4 Creating the user program: You have now done the following: Created user programs according to the task description for both SIMATIC 400 stations Extended the sample programs, for example by evaluating the status codes Downloaded the user programs to the CPUs of both SIMATIC 400 stations Result: If you are working with simulation modules, you should now see the active LED displays on the simulation modules or output modules indicating that communication is taking place. If you cannot detect any communication, do one of the following:
n Check the program sequence online in STEP 7/STL (monitor blocks). Check whether a
changing data word is being output to the simulation module.
n Go on to the next step and check communication with NCM Ethernet diagnostics.

In the first example, we showed you the steps involved in configuring and programming to implement a simple communication task with ISO transport connections. In this chapter, we will now show you the (slight) differences that arise if you want to communicate with a Non-S7 station. These stations are generally known as Other Stations in STEP 7. Based on Chapter 1, you will learn the following: S S How to handle SIMATIC S5 or Non-S7 Stations in the STEP 7 project How to handle ISO transport connections to SIMATIC S5 or Non-S7 Stations Requirements: Working knowledge of STEP 7, knowledge of STL, experience of working with a PLC, a working knowledge of SIMATIC S5

Extra: OBs, FBs and HDBs are used on the SIMATIC S5 side.
The tasks in the user program Compared with the description of the task in Chapter 1, the sample must be adapted for the CP 1430 TF according the description in /14/, as follows: Data are only sent by the SIMATIC 400 station to the SIMATIC S5 station, they are not returned so that the send call in the SIMATIC S5 station and the receive call in the SIMATIC 400 station are omitted. The table shows you which blocks of the type OB and FB in the SIMATIC S5 station are responsible for receiving the job data from the SIMATIC 400 station and processing it.
Task in the SIMATIC 400 Station Processing process data Task in the SIMATIC S5 Station Description of the task in program blocks Simulation of a changing process value:
OB100
OB1
Co-ordination of the program sequence.
FC29
A data word is incremented and decremented cyclically. The time interval for both incrementing and decrementing is 3 seconds.
FC30 / FC5 (AG_SEND)

This data word is transferred to Station 2 as the current process value (job). Receive and process job Receiving and processing job data:
OB1
Coordination of the program sequence. FB101 (HDB RECEIVE) Saves received data in the data block and outputs them to the process simulation.
Notice You can take and use the latest versions of the communications blocks (FC5/ FC6) for your module from the SIMATIC NET block library of STEP 7. If you are using an older module type, this is only possible if you use the latest firmware version for this module type.
47
The Program Sequence In the example, the OB blocks organize the following program sequence in the two stations:
SIMATIC 400 station SIMATIC S5 station
OB 20 / 21 / 22 OB 100 Create data blocks DB30 and 31 Startup FB 111 HDBSYNC
OB 1 FC 29

Sequence of the CPU cycle
To process or download the programs of the SIMATIC 400 station... ...follow the steps described in Chapter 1. The information in Chapter 1 about the program extensions, for example to evaluate the call status codes, also applies here. For the SIMATIC S5 station ... ...you should adapt the program to obtain the required sequence, as follows:
n If the CP 1430 TF is not synchronized during startup, this may be caused by an incorrect
OB20. Copy the content of OB21 to OB20 so that the HDB SYNC is correctly called.
48
Notice Make sure that you use the correct HDBs for the specific CPU in the S5 station. In the example, you require the following: HDB-SYNC HDB-CTRL HDB-RECEIVE
Summary of step 4 Creating the user program: You have now done the following: 1. Created user programs according to the task for both stations 2. Extended the sample programs, for example to include evaluation of status codes 3. Downloaded the user programs to the CPUs of both stations. Result: To monitor the data transfer, follow the instructions in the manual of the CP 1430 TF. You monitor the updating of the data in the receive data block on the SIMATIC S5 station.
