2.3 2.3 Starting up hardware configuration of PLC CPUs
General procedure
The hardware configuration for the PLC CPUs used in the NCU7x0, including other
components of the NCU (NCK, CP, HMI, drive), must be defined via STEP 7.
Proceed as follows in STEP7:
1. Create a new project (File, New, Project)
2. Insert, Hardware, SIMATIC 300 station
3. Select the SIMATIC 300 station with the mouse
4. Right-click with the mouse and select Open Object
and start HWConfig
5. A suitable SINUMERIK component is selected from the "SIMATIC 300\SINUMERIK\840D
sl" hardware catalog.
6. Add I/O from the STEP7 hardware catalog
The addresses for the I/O modules can be modified if required.
Requirements
In order to be able to select SINUMERIK components from the hardware catalog, you must
run the Toolbox setup program first ("Hardware expansions for STEP7" and "Starter"). The
current version of the hardware expansion for STEP7 can also be found under eSupport.
