Connection Via Standard Ethernet Interface - Siemens SINAMICS S120 Commissioning Manual

Result:
An online connection is possible if the firmware versions are identical.
If the firmware versions are not identical (see the diagram example above), then the versions
must be aligned in order to be able to establish an online connection. We recommend that
you upgrade the older version.
Remedy:
● Update the firmware of your drive device (see "Updating the firmware (Page 73)").
OR
● In Startdrive, create a new Startdrive project for your drive device, and there, set a more
recent firmware version for the Control Unit (see "Inserting the drive unit (Page 83)"). If
you are using an older Startdrive version, it may be necessary to first install a current
Startdrive version.
4.5.3

Connection via standard Ethernet interface

Requirement
You have created a project in Startdrive and inserted a CU320-2 PN. The devices are
connected via the Ethernet commissioning interface X127.
As the Ethernet commissioning interface has already been assigned an IP address, you can
go online directly.
If you are not using a new project and devices have already been created, in the project,
check the IP address of the interface in the Inspector window at "Properties > General >
Ethernet addresses" and the IP address assigned to the device. The addresses and subnet
masks must be identical.
Quick search via "Online access"
In order to obtain a fast overview, you can start a search in "Online access" at the required
interface. If the wiring to your drive is error-free and you have wired the correct drive (LED
flashing for checking), the drive is displayed with the appropriate IP address.
