6.9 Setting up addresses and message frames
Overview
After all SINAMICS components have been configured, addresses must be determined for
the process data exchange between the drive and the controller.
This procedure depends on whether symbolic assignments are used:
● With symbolic assignment, the addresses are determined automatically by the
engineering system, see Section Setting up communication for symbolic assignment
(Page 243).
● Without sym
bolic assignment, the determination of the addresses must be started
manually, see Section Message frame configuration (Page 244).
6.9.1 Setting up communication for symbolic assignment
The communication for symbolic assignment is set up with the following actions:
● In the SCOUT menu (call "Project" > "Set up communication for symbolic assignment")
● At "Download project to target system"
● At "Save project and compile changes"
When setting up the communication, the message frames, BICO interconnections and
addresses are set up for the entire project.
