Configuration
The following electronic configuring aids and engineering tools
are available for SINAMICS G120C compact inverters:
Drive Technology Configurator (DT Configurator)
within the CA 01
The interactive catalog CA 01 – the offline Industry Mall of
Siemens on DVD-ROM – contains over 100 000 products with
approximately 5 million possible drive system product variants.
The Drive Technology Configurator (DT Configurator) has been
developed to facilitate selection of the correct motor and/or
inverter from the wide spectrum of drives. It is integrated as a
selection tool in Catalog CA 01.
Online DT Configurator
In addition, the DT Configurator can be used on the Internet with-
out requiring any installation. The DT Configurator can be found
in the Siemens Industry Mall at the following address:
/dt-configurator
SIZER for Siemens Drives engineering tool
The SIZER for Siemens Drives engineering tool makes it easy to
engineer the SINAMICS and MICROMASTER 4 drive families.
It provides support when selecting the hardware and firmware
components necessary to implement a drive task. SIZER for
Siemens Drives is designed to support configuring of the entire
drive system.
You can find further information on the SIZER for Siemens Drives
engineering tool in the chapter Engineering tools.
The SIZER for Siemens Drives engineering tool is available free
on the Internet at

STARTER commissioning tool
The STARTER commissioning tool allows menu-prompted
commissioning, optimization and diagnostics. Apart from the
SINAMICS drives, STARTER is also suitable for
MICROMASTER 4 devices.
You can find further information about the STARTER commission-
ing tool in the chapter Engineering tools.

SINAMICS Startdrive commissioning tool
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 imple-
ment drive tasks with the SINAMICS G110M, SINAMICS G120,
SINAMICS G120C, SINAMICS G120D and SINAMICS G120P
inverter series. The 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.
You can find further information on the SINAMICS Startdrive
commissioning tool in the chapter Engineering tools.
The SINAMICS Startdrive commissioning tool is available free on
the Internet at
/startdrive
Drive ES engineering system
Drive ES is the engineering system that can be used to integrate
the communication, configuration and data management func-
tions of Siemens drive technology into the SIMATIC automation
world easily, efficiently and cost-effectively. Two software pack-
ages are available for SINAMICS – Drive ES Basic and
Drive ES PCS.
You can find further information about the Drive ES engineering
system in the chapter Engineering tools.
