The Sucosoft S40 User Interface reference manual gives a complete description of the software package, its functions and how to use all Sucosoft tools. All the necessary steps up to the finished program are described. The reference manual Sucosoft S40, Language Elements contains definitions, Sucosoft language elements and programming features for all PLC types which can be programmed with Sucosoft S40. Sucosoft provides specific test and commissioning tools for every Sucosoft device type. These tools vary depending on application in either PS4 or PS416 controllers. The differences are indicated by means of headings or footnotes in the reference manual. “PS4-200” refers to PS4-201-MM1, PS4-271-MM1, PS4-151-MM1, and PS4-141-MM1 controllers. “PS4-300” stands for the PS4-341-MM1 controller. “PS416” includes all types of CPUs, i.e. CPU-200, CPU-300 and CPU-400. The user interface is a standard Windows interface. 07/01 AWB2700-1305-GB 7 8 07/01 AWB2700-1305-GB The NAVIGATOR user interface The NAVIGATOR user interface is bordered on the top by the title bar and by the status bar on the bottom. The menu bar appears under the title bar. The working area located between them is divided into three windows. It provides support for all necessary organisational tasks.1 NAVIGATOR Getting to know the NAVIGATOR Introduction The NAVIGATOR will assist you with all tasks involving the organisation of Sucosoft S40 software and the generation of projects. consistently manages project-related information and enables you to create executable. and the status bar includes the name of the project folder. followed by the toolbar. The title bar displays the project name. This supports standardisation and thereby shortens the time required for program development. The NAVIGATOR furthermore allows you the ability to import function blocks and functions in the form of PLC-specific libraries. and then the Sucosoft toolbar. PLC-specific program code. 07/01 AWB2700-1305-GB 9 . The division of these windows is fixed. Only the horizontal and vertical size of the windows can be altered by dragging the window margins with the mouse.

A function can display one or any number of input parameters it is linked to and delivers the result as a return value. Function block POU Function blocks (FBs) are important elements in structuring your PLC program. Functions blocks and functions can be called up from a program. for example) are declared in the program. All project variables firmly defined at a physical address (markers and inputs and outputs. under which the currently selectable 86 . a function only returns one element. They are used by programs or other FBs and can themselves call up other FBs or functions. Sucosoft S40 provides numerous standard function blocks and functions for use in frequently encountered programming tasks. always delivers the same return value. The internal data of FBs is retained for the time between one call and the next. Function type POU Functions are also structuring elements for your PLC program. They are used by programs or FBs and can themselves call up other functions. Unlike a function block. 07/01 AWB2700-1305-GB Before beginning to create your POU. The following three PLC types are displayed. Internal data is not saved so a function. called up with the same input values.

The Output window can display error reports, the results of a find/replace operation in several files, the results of a search for undeclared variables or a cross-reference file. The contents displayed depend on the operation you have started or on the file card tab that you have selected: Error report display An error report will appear if you have started a syntax check of the POU and Sucosoft S40 has found an error. Find/Replace display The results of a find/replace operation in several files will be shown with all the locations of the search string with the file name, line, column and program line in the declaration section and instruction section and in the global type file (usertyp.typ), if appropriate. Cross-reference file The cross-reference file is displayed for the current POU if you have selected File © Cross-Reference File beforehand. This cross-reference file enables you to move easily to the required position of a variable in the instruction section. To do this, doubleclick the appropriate line in the cross-reference file list. 07/01 AWB2700-1305-GB 100 User interface of the POU Editor Display mode of the Output window The Output window can be docked or floated on the screen depending on the setting made. This is carried out via Options © Settings © Editor © Output Window. The Output window is then displayed according to the setting made. When in docked mode the Output window is positioned directly below the Editor window. You can drag the Output window to the position required by clicking the handle and docking it to any of the four edges of the Editor window. A docked Output window is always visible and cannot therefore be moved to the background. An undocked Output window can always be moved to the background as required. You can bring one of the opened POUs or the Output window to the foreground as required by clicking the file card tab or via the Window menu. 07/01 AWB2700-1305-GB 101 POU Editor Variables declaration The declaration section is where you define the variables (assign a data type or a function block to the individual variables) you wish to link together in sequences in the instruction section. Depending on the application concerned, add other values to the declaration such as initial values, attributes or, in the case of directly represented variables, an address. A variable is identified by a name. This name must be different from the POU with which it is associated. Writing conventions for variable names are described in the sections “Variables” and “Compliance with the IEC Standard”, in the manual S40 Language Elements (AWB2700-1306-GB). Element Name (variable names) Type (Data type) Initial value Attribute Address Comment Entry required required optional optional optional optional This assignment of variables in the declaration section is called instantiating, whereby Sucosoft S40 automatically reserves the required memory in the PLC. Function blocks are also declared as variables. Functions occupy no permanent memory and are therefore not declared. Declarations and instances no longer needed should be deleted from the POU to minimise the amount of memory required. 102 07/01 AWB2700-1305-GB Variables declaration Scopes for variables This section provides information on the permissible scopes for variables, according to the POU type concerned. Understandably, a program POU cannot recognise an External variable since the Global variable type is the only one that can be declared in program type POUs. A program POU can only occur once inside a project. Table 1: Overview of permissible scopes for variables in the three POU types and with global types Scope Free mode VAR_INPUT VAR_OUTPUT VAR_IN_OUT VAR_GLOBAL VAR_EXTERNAL VAR Type Syntax mode Input Output Input/output Global External Local Type              FU FB PRG Global types Input Input variables are used to transfer parameters to functions or function blocks. They can only be accessed as Read Only. Keyword: VAR_INPUT Output An output variable that is declared in the function block in which it is supplied as the return value. You can supplement the declaration of output variables with the attribute RETAIN or CONSTANT (see Page 114). Keyword: VAR_OUTPUT 07/01 AWB2700-1305-GB 103 POU Editor Input/output An input/output variable (also known as passing parameter) is read and processed by a function block and output under the same name. When the parameters are passed with the function block call, the IN_OUT variable receives a pointer to the transferred variable and its memory location. Since an operation on an IN_OUT variable thus directly affects the content of the transferred variable, the transferred variable must not be of a type that does not permit write operations such as variables with the attribute CONSTANT. Input/output variables must assigned parameters and connected with every call. Keyword: VAR_IN_OUT Global You declare a variable as global in the program POU when you wish it to be valid in the program POU itself and in the function blocks called up by the POU. It must be declared as an external variable (VAR_EXTERNAL) in all the function blocks in which the variable is to be used. A global variable can therefore only be declared in the program POU. Global variable declarations can be assigned the attribute RETAIN or CONSTANT (see Page 114) as well as being assigned an address (see Page 114). Keyword: VAR_GLOBAL External If you wish to use a variable declared as global in the program POU within a function block it must be declared as an external variable in the function block. Keyword: VAR_EXTERNAL 07/01 AWB2700-1305-GB 104 Variables declaration Local A local variable is only valid in the POU in which it is declared. Global variable declarations can be assigned the attribute RETAIN or CONSTANT (see Page 114) as well as being assigned an address (see Page 114). Keyword: VAR Type The keyword TYPE is used for declaring userdefined, derived data types with local scope in the relevant POU. Derived data types are special data types you can derive, i.e. compile yourself, from elementary types. As an alternative to these local type definitions, you can make global type definitions via File © Open Global Types. Example: By declaring a derived data type “Pressure” as an INT data type with a limited value range, the new data type can be used for declaring variables: TYPE Pressure : INT (0..100); END_TYPE VAR ChamberPressure: Pressure; END_VAR The variable “ChamberPressure” is thereby also an INT data type but can only hold values in the range of 0..100.Keyword: TYPE 07/01 AWB2700-1305-GB 105 POU Editor Declaring variables Table 2: Overview of procedures Procedures Open POU Editor Select POU type Generate variables from topology?

You can transfer the physical PLC addresses defined in the Topology Configurator to the declaration section of a program POU in order to reduce the amount of editing required. These physical PLC addresses such as PLC inputs and outputs or elements of the communications memory are called directly represented variables. They are entered automatically for the global scope and are therefore known within the program POU as well as within the FBs that are called from this program. The assignment of symbolic names is useful but not compulsory (see the chapter “Directly Represented Variables” in the manual “S40 Language Elements”). 106 07/01 AWB2700-1305-GB Figure 33: Topology selection 07/01 AWB2700-1305-GB 107 ..

Only then is the OK button available and no longer dimmed so that variables can be accepted in the declaration section. Instances of function blocks, i.e. variables assigned with a function block, can be used as local and global variables in the program POU and as local or external variables in function block POUs. In order for a function block instance to be valid in all POUs, it must be declared as a Global variable when used in the program POU and as an External variable when used in a function block POU in a sub-folder. 110 07/01 AWB2700-1305-GB Variables declaration The Manufacturer file card tab provides all the manufacturer-defined function blocks and data types available for the PLC used. The data types provide a group with derived data types and several groups with elementary data types. All the data types provided here are pre-defined and are identified by keywords. Further information and notes on manufacturerdefined data types and function blocks are provided in the Help system via the context menu (F1) or direct Help (?). The User file card tab provides all the user-defined function blocks and global data types available for the PLC used. These data types, also known as derived data types, are type declarations that were previously created via the Open Global Types function, see Section “Opening/editing global types” on Page 185. 07/01 AWB2700-1305-GB 111 POU Editor Figure 36: Declaration section with a group of user-defined data types If you have imported a library, its function blocks are available by clicking the appropriate file card tab (in this case "ControllerLib").

The length of the name is limited to 64 characters. Type: Enter the variable data type in the Type cell. This can be an elementary data type (such as BOOL, UINT, etc.), a derived data type, or a function block. Initial value: The value you enter here will be assigned to the variable when the PLC is started. If you enter nothing, the variable will be assigned the default value (0 for numeric variables). Attribute: Use this box to define whether the variable should be assigned an attribute. You can choose between RETAIN or CONSTANT. RETAIN: This keyword specifies that the variable is retentive, i.e. it is retained in the event of a power failure or when the controller is halted. The RETAIN attribute can also be used with FBs. CONSTANT: This keyword specifies that the variable is a data element whose value cannot be changed by the PLC program. Address: When you require a variable with a set relation to a physical address, i.e. a directly represented variable, establish this relation by entering an identifier letter for memory location and an identifier letter for data format in the address cell. 114 07/01 AWB2700-1305-GB Variables declaration Memory location identifiers: I: Q: M: IA: QA: IC: IP: QP: IPA: QPA: IPC: IS: SD: RD: Digital input Digital output Marker Analog input (not usable as bit operand) Analog output (not usable as bit operand) Counter input (not usable as bit operand) Digital input (peripheral direct access)* Digital output (peripheral direct access)* Analog input (peripheral direct access)* Analog output (peripheral direct access)* Counter input (peripheral direct access)* Status information (diagnostics) Send Data – Communication data to a network station Receive Data – Communication data from a network station * (See “Direct Peripheral Access for PS4-200 and PS4-300” in the section “Language Extension” in AWB2700-1306GB) Data format identifiers: X or without letter: B: W: D: Example: I0.0.0.0.0 defines a Boolean input Bit size Byte Word Double-word 07/01 AWB2700-1305-GB 115 POU Editor Comment: Enter here any additional comments for the variable.

In Offline mode you can create your hardware system and enter the information required for the topology. The topology configuration is then compiled with the program it belongs to and loaded into the PLC. Online mode is used for commissioning the system. You can use the Test & Commissioning tool to carry out extensive diagnostics and test functions, such as wiring tests or network diagnostics. Online mode is described in further detail in chapter “Test & Commissioning”. Offline mode The Topology Configurator allows you to create the hardware configuration of your automation system. The CPU is the hardware component that forms the basis of this configuration. Starting from the CPU unit (master PLC), the local and remote expansions of the automation system are defined and assigned parameters in the graphical user interface of the Configurator. The graphical Topology Configurator supports both Suconet K and AS-Interface®topologies. PROFIBUS-DP, PROFIBUS-FMS and INTERBUS topologies are configured with their own configurators: 07/01 AWB2700-1305-GB 187 Topology Configurator (Offline) Table 3: Overview of the configurators Configurator in Offline mode Configurator in Online mode (Test & Commissioning) Suconet K AS-Interface® PROFIBUS-DP PROFIBUS-FMS INTERBUS Sucosoft S40 + CFG-DP Sucosoft S40 + CFG-Suconet-P Sucosoft S40 + CFG-CMD CFG-DP CFG-Suconet-P CFG-CMD Sucosoft S40 Plausibility checks The range of possible functions and the availability of cards and modules in the selection windows is determined by means of plausibility checks within the Topology Configurator. In this way the Configurator only offers the options that are permissible within the context defined. Tasks and considerations like complex current calculations, checks on I/O utilisation, the maximum number of connectable network lines, the permissible location of cards/modules, the memory requirement, the maximum number of LEs or cards/modules as well as syntax checks are handled by the Configurator automatically, thus ensuring that all configurations that are created are actually plausible. 188 07/01 AWB2700-1305-GB These kinds of overlaps should therefore be avoided if you have mixed the configurations of PS416-OUT-400 and PS416-OUT-410 output cards! Starting the Topology Configurator Start the Topology Configurator via The NAVIGATOR menu: Tools © Topology Configurator or click the appropriate icon in the Sucosoft toolbar of the NAVIGATOR: Topology Configurator 07/01 AWB2700-1305-GB 189 . However the Topology Configurator cannot detect if you assign a PS416-OUT-410 (8 outputs) with a possible odd numbered byte address that overlaps the even byte address of a PS416-OUT400.Basic principles The Topology Configurator will propose a suitable even numbered byte address for the highest output byte address of all configured PS416-OUT-400/-410 output cards. These PLCs are stations on Suconet K network lines that are managed by the master. 190 07/01 AWB2700-1305-GB .Topology Configurator (Offline) Network types Suconet K network PLCs used in a networked system can be programmed via a point-to-point connection established between the programming unit and the PLC concerned. which is connected to the programming unit via a normal programmer interface. Only one cable is thus required for programming. maintenance and communication. With Sucosoft it is also possible to program and commission subordinate PLCs in the first network level via a so-called “master” PLC. and several PLCs can be accessed from one central programming system. The data is exchanged via Suconet K in master-slave mode. and ensures a defined reaction time. The AS-Interface bus also features a user-friendly and rugged connection system. AS-Interface®slaves are defined by: the IO code. This “singlemaster system” operates a typical cyclical polling of slaves. The ASInterface®Association also defines the so-called profiles which lay down the specifications for particular groups of similar network stations. There is therefore only one master for every AS-Interface®subnetwork. ID code The ID code identifies the device type and thus defines the meaning of the data and parameter bits. 191 07/01 AWB2700-1305-GB . 0 to F. The IO code is a parameter value between 0 and F.

Up to four inputs and outputs can be selected. The ID code is for the generic AS-Interface® components. It is used to distinguish slaves with the same IO code. and which can be selected with hex.e. This is a single master system.Basic principles AS-Interface®network The Actuator-Sensor Interface®is an open-standard and rugged fieldbus system which extends the networkability of automation devices down to the “field level”. the lowest process level. “DP” stands for decentralised periphery and is based on the RS 485 protocol for data transmission. the initial parameters can be used to choose or enable/disable certain device parameters such as the frequency for proximity switches. the value range for current inputs and outputs. 192 07/01 AWB2700-1305-GB . It covers layers 1 and 2 of the ISO/OSI reference model for networks. The PROFIBUS-DP network is configured in Sucosoft with the Topology Configurator and the PROFIBUS-DP CFG-DP Configurator (see online manual AWB-C2700-1336GB). the device is uniquely identified by its IO code and ID code.Topology Configurator (Offline) When configuring non-Moeller devices (generic AS-Interface®components).

This topology configuration is therefore the overall configuration for the entire hardware system.Topology Configurator (Offline) Topology configuration with Suconet K Topology configuration A hardware system for a special application can be made up of different network lines and stations connected to them. and may consist of several individual device configurations. An example of a displayed device configuration is shown in Fig. 83 on Page 228) defined in the topology configuration. I/O addressing and communication.e. The topology consists of all the lines and stations (see Fig. i. all the information for the Parameters dialog. It consists of a file containing all the information required by the intelligent station in order to operate its local and remote components. The Sucosoft S40 Topology Configurator cannot display several device configurations at the same time. The file is saved with the file name extension “. Device configuration The device configuration must be created for each intelligent station (station with CPU that can run a user program) separately. 87 on Page 233. In this “Single-master” system one master and up to 30 slaves are possible.DCF” in the project. in the master configuration. a slave configuration must also be created for it. Suconet K automatically selects the appropriate telegram length for these slaves and addresses the data ranges addressed in the application. In the slave configuration enter the station and any connected local components. if necessary. with connected local components. Configuring a slave with a CPU (“intelligent slave”) This kind of slave runs its own user program and therefore has its own configuration. The receive and send data lengths (RD/SD) do not have to be set. As well as being specified in the master configuration. all remote components of the master PLC (network slaves). they are later identified by line and station number 0. depending on whether they have their own CPU or not: Configuration of a slave without CPU Only enter this slave. Network slaves are configured differently. Also set the receive and send data lengths (RD/SD) from the point of view of the slave. 07/01 AWB2700-1305-GB 207 .Topology configuration with Suconet K A configuration file defines the following types of stations: the master all local components of the master PLC. Suconet K automatically selects the appropriate telegram length and addresses the data ranges addressed in the application. The master cannot access the I/O data of the “intelligent slave” directly.Topology Configurator (Offline) In the master configuration enter this slave on the line concerned. Only the basic unit is specified in the master configuration and not the local expansions. 208 07/01 AWB2700-1305-GB . This is necessary since the data to be exchanged between master and “intelligent slaves” is communication data. Also set the receive and send data lengths (RD/SD) for this slave from the point of view of the master. Setting send and receive parameters Receive and send data lengths (RD/SD) do not have to be defined in the Topology Configurator for Suconet K communication between master and slaves without their own CPU. For Suconet K communication between master and “intelligent slaves” (slaves with their own CPU). This is carried out in the Parameters dialog for the “intelligent slave” concerned. the number of receive and send data bytes (RD/SD) must be set accordingly in both the master and slave configurations. Topology configuration with Suconet K Define send and receive data in the master configuration as follows: Send data is data that the master sends to the “intelligent slave”. Receive data is data that the master receives from the “intelligent slave”. 07/01 AWB2700-1305-GB 209 . Master RD SD Line 1 Intelligent slave RD SD RD = 5 SD = 2 RD = 2 SD = 5 The data exchange is initiated with the operands “RD” (Receive Data) for reading and “SD” (Send Data) for writing. The number of send data bytes defined in the slave configuration must correspond to the number of receive data bytes defined in the master configuration and vice versa (see diagram). A name up to twelve characters in length can also be assigned to each component. see Fig.0. The three-digit number sequence appearing above each configuration component is the card or module address. a module with the number sequence 1. The number of network lines that can be connected depends on the type of master used.3. This three-digit address corresponds to the first three numbers of the variable address in the PLC program.0. For example. It is automatically generated when the component is added to the configuration. The Configurator shows the entry in the component designation (for example. station number and slot/module number. The master is always assigned line number “0”. so that the master is assigned the number “0” and the first slave the number “1” etc. Station Number: The station numbers of the slaves are assigned in ascending order from the master. 89 on Page 235). 07/01 AWB2700-1305-GB 210 .Topology Configurator (Offline) Addressing the slaves Each configuration component is displayed with a network and module address and the relevant component designation.7. Line Number: The line numbers are automatically assigned by the Topology Configurator and are numbered consecutively in ascending order from left to right.3. the first line being assigned the number “1”.7 is accessed in a PLC program with the variable address %Q1. The address consists of the three elements for line number. 07/01 AWB2700-1305-GB 211 . “intelligent” Suconet K slaves with their operating mode selector switch either in Run or Run M-Reset can be synchronised with the operating status of the master (Run or Halt). For this the Suconet master must be connected and its startup phase must have been completed. Warning! When Remote Control is active. the following special case must be taken into account in the event of a failure and subsequent restoration of the power supply due to the different times for the restart phases (see following table).Topology configuration with Suconet K Module Number: The module numbers are assigned in ascending order from left to right so that the basic unit is assigned the number “0” and the first local expansion module the number “1” etc.slave operation with Remote control All slaves that are configured as “intelligent slaves” in a Suconet K network can be set for Remote Control mode if required.

The physical outputs (Q).Topology configuration with Suconet K Special note with PS4-101-DD1 and PS4-111-DR1 The PS4-101-DD1 and PS4-111-DR1 compact PLCs can be run both as active slaves or passive slaves on the Suconet K line. 07/01 AWB2700-1305-GB 213 . these PLCs provide the master with remote I/O (I/Q. you can optimise access to Suconet K data by using the diagnostics bits NKD_1 to NKD_3 of the message byte (see manual “Hardware and Engineering”. only data that was previously used is available for the user program. the data in the communication buffer is not yet refreshed.e. In this way both cycles are started simultaneously. This operating mode is the same for the PS4-200. A completed data exchange is indicated by the diagnostics bits for the duration of one program cycle. PS4-300. AWB2700-1311-GB). the next Suconet K cycle will be missed until the currently running program cycle is completed. The data exchange with the Suconet K slaves is therefore slower than is possible for Suconet K.Topology Configurator (Offline) Special note with PS4-300 “Synchronous” operation of the Suconet K interface (default setting) Use Synchronous mode when you wish to synchronise the user program cycle with the Suconet K cycle. The following two cases must be noted: User program cycle > Suconet K cycle:After one Suconet K cycle has elapsed. User program cycle < Suconet K cycle:If the Suconet K cycle is longer. i. 07/01 AWB2700-1305-GB 214 . If you have selected Synchronous mode. These diagnostic bits are refreshed by the PS4-300 – according to the number of configured Suconet K network lines –and can be queried via the OS system function “PLC_Message”. Use Asynchronous mode if the program cycle and the Suconet K cycle should run independently. for example. NKD_1 = 1: data exchange with the master of line 1 has been completed.Topology configuration with Suconet K If. When using the PS4-300 as Suconet K master with synchronous Suconet K mode. Data exchange is executed as quickly as possible for each station separately. asynchronously. i. 07/01 AWB2700-1305-GB Operation as Suconet K slave If. This can be used as follows for checking: LD NKD_1 PLC_Message JCN . a 1 at NKD_* bit will indicate the following: PS4-300 is master.. the maximum cycle time should not exceed 255 ms. you have configured the PS4-341-MM1 with one Suconet K network line on its on-board SBI. for example. This has the same behaviour as the PS416.e. Depending on whether the PS4-300 is operating as Suconet K master or slave. The receive data from all slaves is in the communications buffer. a PS4-300 running as a Suconet K slave 215 . The send data to the slaves can be overwritten by the user program. has been refreshed and can be read by the user program. this will refresh the NKD_1 bit. the power supply for all the Suconet stations of an installation has failed and has been restored. NKD_1 = 1: data exchange with all slaves on line 1 has been completed.. PS4-300 is slave. The receive data in the communications buffer has been refreshed and can be read. The send data to the master in the communications buffer can be overwritten by the user program. After switching to Run the PLC will therefore set its DDK bit = 1. 216 07/01 AWB2700-1305-GB . configure at least 1 byte of send data and 1 byte of receive data anyway.Topology Configurator (Offline) will consider itself as disconnected from the network if its restart phase is shorter than that of the master. If you do not require any data exchange. In this case the DDK bit signals a temporary fault that is cleared when the Suconet K master is restarted and the connection is completed. Configuration of send and receive data For problem-free Suconet K operation with a PS4-300 (as master and/or slave) you must not set 0 bytes send/receive data. is not absolutely necessary. Slot 4/6/8/. This requires the following PS416 system configuration: Slot 2: Master CPU. For this the function block is used in the master and in the slave CPUs. PS416-CPU 07/01 AWB2700-1305-GB 217 .. Depending on which method you choose.. there are two ways of describing cards: The digital cards can be selected and displayed individually. the function block CPUDataExchange can be used to exchange data between the individual controllers. The digital I/O cards of one rack can be combined together and configured with a symbol.Topology configuration with Suconet K Special note with PS416 Input and output cards As the digital I/O cards of the PS416 modular PLC are not addressed according to their slot location. This method is useful if you wish to ensure that the actual configuration matches the visual display in the Configurator. however. This method.: Slave CPUs. you will later be able to use a group display of all digital I/O or an I/O display for each individual card when using the Force/Display I/O function in the Test and Commissioning tool. Multi-processing Multi-processing is a configuration in which several PS416 controllers are interconnected and exchange data via the local parallel bus. The following important points must be taken into account: When several PS416-CPU-200/300/400 cards are used in one rack. In a configuration with several local CPUs remember that only the master CPU (slot 2) or the first CPU slave (slot 4) fitted in the rack is able to access the I/ O cards. There is an additional restriction for the slave card fitted in slot 4.Topology Configurator (Offline) Data is exchanged via a special 2032 byte memory range. Write or read operations to this data range can be carried out via a function block call. It can only access digital I/ O cards. This must be taken into account in the configuration files for the CPU cards. The PLC fitted in slot 2 is the so-called master PLC and all other CPUs are slaves on the local bus. 218 07/01 AWB2700-1305-GB . All other CPUs are not able to access local I/O cards. 07/01 AWB2700-1305-GB 219 . The permanent configuration specifies all devices on the AS-Interface®line and allows the PLC in Run mode to access all inputs and outputs of the AS-I devices. This procedure is basically the same as for a Suconet K configuration. You can just create a basic configuration offline. Sucosoft uses this basic configuration to automatically detect online all active slaves on the AS-Interface®network. With the first method you create a topology configuration to which you add the AS-Interface® master to a network line and add the slaves as remote devices.Topology configuration with AS-Interface® Topology configuration with AS-Interface® The configuration of an AS-Interface®network is basically the same as for a Suconet K network. Once this is completed you can then address individual slaves in an AS-Interface®line transparently using the Moeller address notation. although the slaves of an AS-Interface®line can be modified as required. in which the configuration is started with the bus master. Configuration can be carried out in two ways: You can create a complete AS-Interface® configuration offline in the Topology Configurator. The second method also requires a topology configuration with a locally specified AS-Interface® master. Sucosoft will then automatically detect the AS-Interface®slaves on a line. Both approaches result in a new configuration which must then be transferred to the PLC as the so-called “Permanent configuration” together with the PLC program. The global configuration is created with Sucosoft. This card or module organises and executes the data exchange between the user program of the superordinate PLC and all connected slaves. 220 07/01 AWB2700-1305-GB . The configuration of the PROFIBUS-DP network is loaded directly on the DP master card or module with the CFG-DP Configurator. The diagnosis and monitoring of the DP network is carried out with the DP Configurator. whilst the DP network is configured with a separate configurator (CFG-DP configurator) as part of the overall configuration.Topology Configurator (Offline) Topology configuration with PROFIBUS-DP A topology configuration containing Suconet K and PROFIBUS-DP networks requires the use of two network configurators. If the DP master is an LE4-504-BS1 module you must specify in the Parameters dialog the name of the PROFIBUS configuration file created in the CFG-DP Configurator. The CFG-DP Configurator is used to define the bus parameters of the PROFIBUS-DP network. This configurator is also supplied with Sucosoft. It is also used for configuring and assigning slave parameters and defining the allocation to one or several DP master cards or modules. The Sucosoft Topology Configurator just displays the DP master that starts the DP network. With the PS416 modular PLC the syntax of PROFIBUS-DP slave access addresses is not checked until the program is started. Syntax check of access addresses for PROFIBUS-DP slaves With the PS4-300 compact PLC the syntax of DP slave access addresses is checked during program generation. The PLC will then remain in Halt status. When the PLC is restarted after the power supply is switched on.Topology configuration with PROFIBUS-DP Deviations between current and saved DP configuration When the user program is started. 07/01 AWB2700-1305-GB 221 . The user program cannot start if any differences are detected. the current DP configuration of the DP master is registered by the system and saved as the permanent configuration. to access analog I/O use IW and QW to form the access address. For example. the current configuration of the DP master is compared with the permanent configuration saved. Accessing the I/O of a PROFIBUS-DP slave PROFIBUS-DP slave I/O can be addressed via I or Q operands. for example. DP slaves The KOM diagnostics bit (PS416) and DDK diagnostics bit (PS4-341-MM1 or PS4-2xx-MM1) are not set in the slave CPU if a DP slave card/module (PS416-NET-441 or LE4-504-BT1) is disconnected. 222 07/01 AWB2700-1305-GB . due to wire breaks or a missing slave configuration. DDK signals a deviation between the actual configuration and the set configuration for one or several slaves.Topology Configurator (Offline) Maximum number of modules per slave The PS416-NET-440 and LE4-504-BS1 PROFIBUSDP masters support up to 60 DP modules per slave. In other words up to 60 I/O entries can be made in the CFG_DP Slave Configuration dialog. the NoDPCommunication diagnostics bit can be used to determine whether the slave is correctly exchanging data with the master. When the slave user program is in Run status. Behaviour of the DDK or KOM diagnostics bits DP master The KOM diagnostics bit (PS416) and DDK diagnostics bit (PS4-341-MM1) are only set in the master CPU for a PROFIBUS-DP line when the master is in Run status (for Suconet in Ready and Run status). the user program must be adapted. re-compiled and reloaded onto the CPU. Startup of a PROFIBUS-DP line of the PS416 modular PLC Depending on the number of slaves connected and the baud rate set. In this case use the PS_ClearKomBit function block to reset the KOM bit and only evaluate the KOM bit in the program from then. The user program of a PS4-341-MM1 must always be re-compiled using the Generate All function.Topology configuration with PROFIBUS-DP Changing the DP configuration with CFG-DP If the PLC is in Run status when the DP configuration is downloaded to the master using CFG-DP. 07/01 AWB2700-1305-GB 223 . In order to address the new DP I/O. This will cause the KOM bit to be set and the Error LED to light up on the PLC. Further information on the PROFIBUS-DP Configurator is available in the online documentation AWB-C2700-1336-GB. the time required to start a PROFIBUS-DP line may take longer than the start of the user program. it will automatically be switched to Halt. 0 PS4-200 1 LE 2 LE 3 LE 4 LE 5 LE Figure 79: Configuration with PS4-200 The configuration example consists of: one PS4-201-MM1 compact PLC with different local expansion modules (LE4) for I/O expansion: LE4-108-XD1: 8 digital outputs LE4-206-AA1: 4 analog inputs/2 analog outputs LE4-108-XR1: 8 relay outputs LE4-116-DX1: 16 digital inputs LE4-116-DD1: 8 digital inputs/8 digital outputs 224 07/01 AWB2700-1305-GB .

Forcing variable values With PS416 and PS4-300 controllers. you can assign a defined value to variables of elementary and complex data types while the controller is running (Run state). Figure 175: Variables window for PS4-300 and PS416 If you want to assign a particular value to a variable while the controller is running. To do this first create a variable list as described earlier. 398 07/01 AWB2700-1305-GB . Close the Online Editor. You can also transfer Variables of complex data types such as Array or Structure variables to the Variables window in the same way as described above (see Fig. symbolic variables and markers) or at the end of the cycle (for outputs) and the value is forced repeatedly each cycle until the forcing operation is cancelled again by the user. In contrast. The timepoint of the forcing is the same as for static forcing. When a variable is forced dynamically. variables which are assigned to physical outputs are forced with the specified value at the end of the cycle. but in this case forcing takes place once only and not repeatedly. This means that sequences with these forced variables may not be necessarily executed with the forced value within a cycle. however. in the same way as in a separate window of the status display. the respective variable is assigned the required value at the beginning of the cycle (for inputs. it is assigned a value once.

The RxD and TxD lines must be crossed over in this adapter or in a further adapter. In addition, with cable PS 416-ZBK-210, you must also interconnect (bridge) the lines RTS/CTS and the lines DTR, DSR and DCD. For the PS 416 series controllers, you can generally use the cable supplied with the modem together with an adapter. Since standard modem cables do not interconnect the lines RTS/CTS and DTR, DSR and DCD, it is essential to issue the modem AT command settings which disable modem flow control. 422 07/01 AWB2700-1305-GB Modem operation Configuration example using ke modems LOGEM 928 and LOGEM LGH 28.8D1 Switch positions The mode set is Software Mode, Basic setting 0: the configuration is set via the software, all switches are set to 0. Initialising the PC and the PLC modem The initialisation string can be transferred to both modems via a communication program with terminal operation. The PC modem can alternatively be initialised via AT commands for connection establishment via the Interface Parameters dialog in the T & C tool. The PLC modem can be initialised via the SendATCommand function block when it is connected to a PS416 or PS4-300.

ATDT 00w0228,6022099 426 07/01 AWB2700-1305-GB Using several PS416-CPUs Using several PS416-CPUs By using several PS416-CPUs (Multi-processing) in one rack, the PS416-CPU can be used as a platform for additional technology applications. In this way, for example, a CPU can control the process whilst at the same time another CPU handles complex closed-loop control or positioning tasks. This ensures a faster and more efficient execution of the process. The data exchange between the CPU cards is organised by the CPUDataExchange function block. When several CPUs are used, the multi-drop connection is recommended (see Page 315). Configuring a PS416 system The controller CPU or master CPU is fitted in slot 2/3. Additional technology cards or slave CPUs are fitted in slots 4/5, 6/7, 8/9 etc. This slot assignment must be observed. The CPU cards must be fitted in the rack without any gaps. Before commissioning carry out a current requirements calculation for all the cards fitted in the rack in order to ensure that the power supply unit is not overloaded. The current requirements of each card are provided in the relevant manual. 07/01 AWB2700-1305-GB 427 Appendix Assigning local inputs and outputs Word processing cards, such as analog input/output cards, counter cards and network cards can be addressed exclusively and controlled by the master CPU. The local (central) digital I/O can either be addressed by the master or by the slave CPU on slots 4/5. The allocation of CPU access to the local digital I/O is defined in the topology configuration created in Sucosoft S40 for every PLC. If the master CPU has access to the local digital I/O, the following configuration variations are possible: Configuration of the master CPU on Configuration of the slave CPU on slot Configuration of the slave CPU on slot slot 2/3 4/5 6/7 Line 0 0 0 0 0 0 Rack 0 0 0 0 0 0 Slot 0 2 4 6 12 16 Type PS416INP/OUT PS416CPU PS416CPU PS416CPU PS416COM-200*) PS416NET-220*) Line 0 Rack 0 Slot 4 Type PS416CPU-400 Line 0 Rack 0 Slot 6 Type PS416CPU-400 *) Example of word-processing cards 07/01 AWB2700-1305-GB 428 and switching off the PLC. 07/01 AWB2700-1305-GB 429 . the following configuration variations are possible: Configuration of the master CPU on Configuration of the slave CPU on slot Configuration of the slave CPU on slot slot 2/3 4/5 6/7 Line 0 0 0 0 0 Rack 0 0 0 0 0 Slot 2 4 6 12 16 Type PS416CPU PS416CPU PS416CPU PS416COM-200*) PS416NET-220*) Line 0 0 Rack 0 0 Slot 0 4 Type PS416INP/OUT PS416CPU-400 Line 0 Rack 0 Slot 6 Type PS416CPU-400 *) Example of word-processing cards All other system configurations.Using several PS416-CPUs If the slave CPU has access to the local digital I/O. especially the inclusion of word-processing cards in the topology configuration of a slave CPU or the simultaneous allocation of the digital I/O to the master and to the slave CPU can lead to undefined system states that can only be switched off by removing the battery. In this data exchange.Appendix Addressing remote I/O via Suconet K Both the master CPU and the slave CPU can be connected to a Suconet K line via the on-board SBI interface and can thus access the remote I/O independently of each other. An application example of the CPUDataExchange function block is provided in the function block description in the manual AWB2700-1306-GB “Sucosoft S40. this has no effect on other CPUs. The data exchange is not synchronised so that a handshake procedure for the exchange must be written in the program. One master CPU must always be present for the data exchange. Their programs run asynchronously to each other. one side writes a defined data range whilst the other side reads it. Language Elements”. Programming master and slave CPU Master and slave CPUs are programmed separately. 430 07/01 AWB2700-1305-GB . If a master CPU or slave CPU switches to Ready.
