5.1.1 NCU Connection Wizard
Use
The NCU Connection Wizard is only installed during the installation of HMI-Advanced on a
PG/PC. This assists you during the commissioning of the NCK, PLC and drive and during
the configuration of interfaces and the cabling.
With the Connection Wizards, connections are possible both via MPI and Ethernet,
depending on the control unit. Use an Ethernet connection for SINUMERIK solution line and
an MPI connection for SINUMERIK powerline. The type of connection depends on the
software installed on the 840Di control unit.
Starting the "NCU Connection Wizard"
The Connection Wizard is started under "Start menu" → "NCU Connection Wizard" or it is
automatically started after a message if no connection to the control unit can be established.
Note
Changes that you made using the "NCU Connection Wizard" only take effect after a system
restart.
