Hardware requirements
Property/requirement
The SIMATIC Drive Controller is available in various performance classes.
CPU 1504D TF (small to mid-range applications)
•
CPU 1507D TF (high-performance applications)
•
What performance class you require depends on your specific automation
and Motion Control solution requirements. You can find a summary of the
main performance features of the Drive Controller in Comparison of
SIMATIC Drive Controller versions (Page 20).
Note the following requirements for operation of a SIMATIC Drive Controller
as a bus device:
PROFINET
The integrated PROFINET interface of the CPU is configured using
•
STEP 7 (IP address and device name configured).
The CPU is connected to the subnet. See the PROFINET Function Man-
•
ual (https://support.industry.siemens.com/cs/ww/en/view/49948856)
For the rapid exchange of control data between the SIMATIC Drive Control-
ler and drive components connected over PROFINET (for example
SINAMICS S120, SINAMICS S210), the PROFINET IO network must be
configured as isochronous.
PROFIBUS DP
The integrated PROFIBUS interface of the CPU is configured using
•
STEP 7 (node address and bus parameters configured).
The CPU is connected to the subnet.
•
The terminating resistors at the segment boundaries are on. See the
•
PROFIBUS Function Manual
(https://support.industry.siemens.com/cs/ww/en/view/59193579)
Power supply units for the 24 V DC supply must supply safety extra-low
voltage in accordance with IEC 61131-2 or IEC 61010-2-201.
Devices from the SITOP family, for example, can be used.
You can find information on the 24 V power supply specifications in Power
supply (Page 66).
Please note the installation information in the SINAMICS S120 manuals and
the "Rules for wiring with DRIVE-CLiQ" in the SINAMICS S120 Function
Manual (https://support.industry.siemens.com/cs/ww/en/view/109763287).
