Communication With Cbe20; Ethernet/Ip - Siemens SINAMICS S120 Function Manual

11.3.6

Communication with CBE20

The CBE20 is a Communication Board that can be flexibly used and which can be operated
with different communication profiles. Only one firmware of a communication profile can be
loaded at any one time. The available firmware files are saved with the communication
profiles in UFW files on the Control Unit memory card.
The required file is selected using parameter p8835. A POWER ON must be carried out after
selecting the desired UFW file. During the subsequent system boot, the corresponding UFW
file is loaded. The new selection then becomes active.

11.3.6.1 EtherNet/IP
SINAMICS S120 supports the communication with the fieldbus EtherNet Industrial Protocol
(EtherNet/IP or also EIP). EtherNet/IP is an open standard based on Ethernet, which is
predominantly used in the automation industry. EtherNet/IP is supported by the Open
DeviceNet Vendor Association (ODVA).
For communication with EtherNet/IP, an Ethernet CBE20 option board is required. By setting
p8835 = 4, you can choose the communication profile EtherNet/IP. After POWER ON, the
profile becomes active.
