SINUMERIK 840Di Manual (HBI) – 06.03 Edition
For loading the PLC program into the PLC, the following prerequisites must be
fulfilled:
S
SIMATIC Manager STEP7 is active
S
The current PLC program is present.
S
An MPI connection is established between SIMATIC Manager and PLC.
S
SINUMERIK 840Di is active, i.e. the NC is in cyclic operation and the PLC in
either of the states RUN or STOP.
Before loading the configuration (system data blocks) into the PLC, first the re-
quired MPI connection must be established.
If the configuration is transferred from an external PG/PC (e.g. PG740), the fol-
lowing prerequisites must be fulfilled:
S
An MPI card exists (e.g. CP5611)
S
The MPI drivers are installed
S
Current interface parameterization: CP5611(MPI)
S
Data transfer rate: 1.5 Mbps
S
The MPI interface of the PG/PC is linked with the MPI interface of the MPI
board (X111) using an MPI cable.
If the configuration is transferred from the SINUMERIK 840Di, the following re-
quirements must be fulfilled:
S
The MPI drivers are installed
S
Current interface parameterization: SINUMERIK MCI board (MPI)
S
Data transfer rate: 1.5 Mbps
Parameterization of the MPI interface is carried out with the SIMATIC Manager
STEP7 using menu command Tools > Set PG/PC Interface.
Dialog: Setting the PG/PC Interface
Register: Access Path
Interface parameter set used:
with ext. PG/PC: CP5611(MPI)
or
with local PC: SINUMERIK MCI board (MPI)
