6.2 Performing the configuration for the D4x5-2 offline
SIMOTION D4x5-2
182 Commissioning and Hardware Installation Manual, 02/2012
The SIMOTION project is downloaded to the target system and the online connection to
the drives established automatically.
Note
Online access to the drives is not possible if HW Config is not loaded at the time you
initially connect to the target system.
Download HW Config first to enable online access to the drives. During the "Download to
target system" process, SIMOTION SCOUT automatically attempts to establish an online
connection to SINAMICS Integrated.
Note
If you have deselected the "Drives" option under "Tools" > "Settings" > "Download" in
SIMOTION SCOUT, you must download the configuration separately to each drive
(SINAMICS Integrated, CX32-2, etc.).
To do this, select the drive (e.g. SINAMICS Integrated) in the project navigator and
perform "Download CPU / drive unit to target device".
For fast operation, we recommend that, in principle, the drives be deselected and a
download only performed when required.
4. To save the parameter calculations of the drive in the project, perform "Target device" >
"Load CPU / drive unit to PG" for each drive.
6.2.5 Downloading a project to the CompactFlash card
Requirement
Loading a project created offline to the CompactFlash card has the advantage of being faster
than a download.
It should be noted, however, that the first system power-up will take longer, as the
SINAMICS Integrated and CX32-2 controller extension will perform one-off parameter
calculations. These are automatically backed up on the CompactFlash card.
Note
In order to save the project data via the PG/PC, you need a CompactFlash card adapter in
which you can insert the CompactFlash card. The CompactFlash card must be displayed as
a removable storage device with any drive letter in Windows Explorer.
If the CompactFlash card is not displayed, check the CompactFlash card adapter and
contact the hotline if necessary.
