4.3 Performing an online configuration
4.3.1 Overview
Introduction
You can configure the plant in online mode after having completed its wiring. You can use
the "Automatic configuration" function to load the SINAMICS components connected via
DRIVE-CLiQ to your programming device/PC. However, this functionality is only available
within the initial commissioning phase.
Note
Components without DRIVE-CLiQ connection must be edited in offline mode. You may need
to edit DRIVE-CLiQ components which were detected in the course of automatic
configuration (for example, adding encoder data if using SMC modules).
Prerequisites for online configuration
● You created a project in SIMOTION SCOUT and added a SIMOTION D410 to the project.
● You configured the communication between the the programming device / PC and
SIMOTION D410.
● Your system has been installed and wired.
Procedure

● Establishing the online connection (Page 86)
