Function
(continued)
Operator control and monitoring (HMI)
Operator control and monitoring can be performed:
•
separately on an HMI panel or
•
by connecting a SIMATIC Industrial Flat Panel (IFP).
Communication utilities which support user-friendly data
exchange with HMI systems are integrated in the basic
functionality of SIMOTION P. Both PROFINET and PROFIBUS
(optional) as well as Industrial Ethernet can be used for
communication.
The HMI devices can be connected to SIMOTION P over
PROFINET, Industrial Ethernet or PROFIBUS. They are
configured by means of SIMATIC WinCC (TIA Portal).
With the SIMATIC NET communications software, an open,
standardized OPC interface is available for accessing
SIMOTION from other Windows-based HMI systems.
SIMOTION IT service and diagnostic functions
SIMOTION IT provides SIMOTION P with an integrated web
server on which, for example, user-specific web pages can be
stored. Read and write access can be made to the Motion
Controller variables. Java scripts or applets also allow the
implementation of active operation and display functions in the
web pages that can be executed on a client PC with standard
Internet browser.
Process and data communication
Thanks to its integrated interfaces, SIMOTION P supports both
process and data communication. The SCOUT engineering
system is provided for user-friendly communication
configuration and diagnostics.
Position-controlled motion control for servo drives
Drives with digital setpoint interface
SIMOTION P Motion Controllers enable position-controlled
motion control for drives with digital setpoint interface via
PROFINET IO with PROFIdrive or optionally with PROFIBUS DP.
Position control and pressure control for hydraulic drives
With SIMOTION P and the SIMATIC ET 200S High Speed I/Os,
minimum cycle times of 250 μs can be achieved over PROFINET
with IRT (Isochronous Real Time).
Highly dynamic control loops can therefore be achieved for
hydraulic applications with position and pressure control.
