Overview
Standard applications: Understanding and profiting
from know-how
The development of standard applications is a major area of
activity within the Siemens automation and drive environment.
The scope of these standard applications ranges from clearly
organized documentation that focuses on one or several tech-
nologies (e.g. Safety Integrated) to complete, comprehensive,
standardized solutions for complex tasks (e.g. cross cutters).
Standard application requirements
One feature that all application examples have in common is that
they are designed to help users help themselves. They have
been created by developers with extensive tool, commissioning
and application know-how to make them as user-friendly as
possible. Standard applications generally provide the user with
reusable components.
Technology functions in the higher-level control system
•
Tested SIMATIC PLC blocks
•
Reusable HMIs and faceplates
Technology functions in the drive
•
Tested SIMATIC PLC blocks
•
Application-specific Drive Control Charts (DCC)
•
Reusable HMIs and faceplates

Benefits
Freely available application examples offer:
•
Explanation of the necessary configuring steps with Siemens
engineering tools
•
Reusable standardized blocks for SIMATIC PLC
•
Functionally coordinated programs and blocks
•
Significantly shorter commissioning times
Various application examples also explain how to use free
function blocks (FFB), logic processing integrated in the drive
with Drive Control Chart (DCC) and Safety Integrated.
Application examples
The following application examples are just a selection of some
of the many applications that are available on the Internet at:
•
SINAMICS S: Controlling the speed of a SINAMICS S120 with
SIMATIC S7-300/400F (STEP 7 V5) via PROFINET/PROFIBUS
with Safety Integrated (via PROFIsafe) and HMI
•
SINAMICS S: SINAMICS S120 web server – user-defined
