SINAMICS Startdrive commissioning tool
■
Overview
SINAMICS Startdrive is a tool for configuring, commissioning,
and diagnosing the SINAMICS family of drives and is integrated
into the TIA Portal.
SINAMICS Startdrive can be used to implement drive
applications involving the following drives:
•
SINAMICS G120
•
SINAMICS G120C
•
SINAMICS G120D
•
SINAMICS G120P
•
SINAMICS G110M
The SINAMICS Startdrive commissioning tool has been
optimized with regard to user friendliness and consistent use
of the TIA Portal benefits of a common working environment
for PLC, HMI and drives.

Online work on the drive
- Without previous creation of an offline project
- With the new SINAMICS firmware without the need to
perform a tool update.
- Available online functions without project: Commissioning
with wizard and control panel, full parameter access with
graphic function view and structured parameter list with
complete drive diagnostics

Integration
Integration of SINAMICS drives with SIMATIC in the
TIA Portal
The software packages based on the TIA Portal are harmonized
with each other and offer important benefits. The TIA Portal en-
ables simple integration of SINAMICS drives in your automation
solution:
•
Reduction in the familiarization overhead thanks to cross-tool
uniformity of the operator inputs
•
Device configuration and network connection of the drives in
the TIA Portal-wide configuration/network editor
•
Device access to the drives via the PLC across network
boundaries (dataset routing)
•
Automatic frame comparison between converters/inverters
and SIMATIC S7 PLC
•
Reduction of standstill times through the integration of
converter/inverter messages in the SIMATIC S7 system
diagnostics:
- The drive messages are part of the SIMATIC S7 system
diagnostics without previous configuration
-
The drive messages are therefore automatically available as
plain text in the TIA Portal, the web server of the
SIMATIC S7 PLC and the HMI
•
Time savings thanks to simple and guided configuration of the
drives for operation with SIMATIC S7 Motion Control
•
Short familiarization time for SIMATIC STEP 7 users due to
common use of editors. Realtime trace and the drive control
panel are identical to the editors in STEP 7
•
Reuse of the drive configuration and parameterization is
possible with the assistance of the TIA Portal library
•
Standard TIA Portal functions for converters/inverters, e.g.
Undo, Redo
•
Block library supplied for easy integration of SINAMICS drives
into the user programs of the SIMATIC S7-300, S7-400,
S7-1200, S7-1500
•
Shared project storage for all devices in the project
