Note
The descriptions of PROFIBUS in this chapter applies to MICROMASTER 4 und
SINAMICS G120/G120D (CU240S/D, DP/DP-F).
A knowledge of STEP 7 is assumed. This information does not detail the more
advanced configurations that are available.

Figure 1-2
In first step you have to drag the MICROMASTER 4 inverter and drop it on the
BUS. In second step you have to drag the favored telegram and drop it to the slot.
1.1.2 Selection of a proper telegram
The MICROMASTER 4 is controlled via the cyclical PROFIBUS-DP channel.

The user data structure for cyclical data traffic is divided into two areas which can
be transmitted in each telegram:
Process data area (PZD), i.e. control words and setpoints, or status information
and actual values
Parameter area (PKW) for reading/writing parameter values, e.g. reading out faults,
or reading out information about the properties of a parameter such as, for
example, min/max limits, etc.
Which type of Parameter Process data Object (PPO) for MICROMASTER 4
respectively Standard telegram for SINAMICS G120 (CU240x) is selected depends
on the function of the drive in the automation network.
If you e. g. connect the MICROMASTER 440 from hardware catalogue to the

PROFIBUS the telegrams in figure 1-3 are available.
V4 29.01.2014 5/40
Figure 1-3
Depending on your application you can select a proper telegram. In case of

connecting the MICROMASTER 4 via GSD file to the PROFIBUS, the telegrams in
figure 1-4 are available.
V4 29.01.2014 6/40
Figure 1-4
It must be pointed out the till MICROMASTER 420 you only have up to 4 PZD. For
MICROMASTER 430 and 440 you can select up to 8 PZD. Further there are
differences between whole cons. and word cons.
Whole cons means a data consistency in whole length. E.g. at 4 PZD all 4 words
sent as one block. Therefore it is necessary using e.g. the SFC14/15 Bausteine.
Word cons means a data consistency of only a single word. In this case it is
possible to use the standard Load and Transfer commands.
In chapter 2 you will find further detailed information for PKW mechanism.
1.2 Establish a PROFIBUS connection at MICROMASTER 4

/ SINAMICS G120 (CU240x)
To establish a connection via PROFIBUS there are a view steps necessary.
Start with the parametrization at the inverter. If necessary, set the default with
p0010 = 30 and p0970 = 1.
There are two ways of setting the bus address:
Via the seven DIP switches on the communication board. DIP-switch one
is the lowest bit. DIP switch setting changes do not take effect until the
PROFIBUS has been restarted cold.
V4 29.01.2014 7/40
Via parameter p0918. If address 0 is set on the DIP switches of the

communication board (setting in delivery state), then the PROFIBUS
address can be changed in parameter "P0918". Valid settings are 1 to 125
(default = 3).
The control word and setpoint sources can be selected quickly in parameters
P0700 (select command source) and P1000 (select frequency setpoint)
respectively.
Command source from PROFIBUS: P0700 = 6
Frequency target value from PROFIBUS: P1000 = 6
1.3 Getting the MICROMASTER / SINAMICS G120 (CU240x)

ready for operation
It is recommended you check the operation of the PROFIBUS control before trying
to run the motor. Disconnect the motor cable from the U, V, and W terminals to do
this, the output frequency can be seen on an AOP or BOP display panel.
If you want to run the motor at this stage, set P0010 = 1, and set all the
commissioning parameters, as described in the MICROMASTER instruction
manual or parameter list. Finish with P3900 = 3, which calculates the motor data.
This sets parameter P0010 back to 0. The inverter cannot run when P0010 = 1.
Check that it is safe for the motor to turn.
1.4 Controlling the MICROMASTER / SINAMICS G120

(CU240x) from the PLC
If you have chosen PPO3 respectively Standard telegram 1, you will have 2 output
words (PZD1 and PZD2) from the PLC, which correspond to the MICROMASTER /
SINAMICS G120 (CU240x) control word and frequency setpoint, and 2 input words
which are the status word and actual frequency.
If you chose PPO1, the first 4 input and output words are for parameter read/write
data (PKW data). The PKW output words can be set to zero at this time. See also
chapter 2.
The frequency setpoint and actual value are normalised such that 4000hex
corresponds to 50Hz. The maximum value that should be sent is 7FFF. The
normalisation frequency can be changed in P2000.
Here are some typical control and status words to get started. The status words
assume the MICROMASTER has ramped up to its frequency setpoint (where
applicable). The data sequence is control word, frequency setpoint, status word,
actual frequency. Sending control word 047E followed by 047F is the key to getting
the drive started.
Get drive ready to run forward:

Drive tripped on fault:

0C7F 1000 FA38 0000
Reset fault:
04FE 0000 FA31 0000
The structure of the control and status words is described in section 3.3 of the
PROFIBUS Manual.

2 PKW mechanism for reading and writing

parameters
Note
The descriptions of PKW-mechanism in this chapter applies to MICROMASTER 4
und SINAMICS G120/G120D (CU240S/D, DP/DP-F) and additional for PROFINET
for SINAMICS G120/G120D (CU240S/D PN/PN-F).
2.1 User data structure

The structure of useful data for the cyclical channel of PROFIBUS DP/PROFINET
is referred to as the Parameter Process data Object (PPO) for MICROMASTER 4
and Siemens Telegram for Control Units (CUs) CU240S/D DP/DP-F/PN/PN-F of

the SINAMICS G120 and SINAMICS G120D.
User data structure according to PPOs / Siemens telegrams

The useful data structure for cyclical data traffic is divided into two areas, which
can be transmitted in special telegrams as follows:
Process data area (PZD), i.e. control words and setpoints, or status information
and actual values
Parameter area (PKW) for reading/writing parameter values, reading out faults,
or reading out information about the properties of a parameter such as, for
example, min/max limits, etc.
Process data is always transferred. It is processed as top priority in the shortest

time slice in the drive.
Process data is used to control the drive in the automation network, On/Off
commands, setpoint inputs, etc.
The parameter area enables the user to access all parameters stored in the
inverter via the bus system. For example, to read out detailed diagnostic
information, faults messages, etc.
Telegrams for cyclic data transmission thus have the following basic structure:
Figure 2-1

PKW: Parameter identifier value
2 telegram types are defined, that include the PKW component, for
MICROMASTER 4 and CU240S/D DP/DP-F/PN/PN-F:
V4 29.01.2014 10/40
Figure 2-2
Note:
MICROMASTER 420 only supports PPO1 of these two PPO types.
Note:
Telegram types 353 and 354 for Control Units CU240S/D DP/DP-F/PN/PN-F of the
SINAMICS G120/G120D are only available from software version V3.0 onwards.
This means that the PKW mechanism is only possible from SW3.0 onwards of the
CUs of SINAMICS G120/G120D.
Parameter data area (PKW)

The PKW (parameter identifier value) telegram section can be used to monitor
and/or change any parameter in the inverter.
Process data area (PZD)

Control words and setpoints (requests: Master -> inverter) and status words and
actual values (responses: Inverter -> master) can be transmitted in the process
data area.
2.2 PKW mechanism to process parameters

Parameter area (PKW)
Using the PKW mechanism you can process and monitor parameters (write/read)
as described below:
Precondition:
PPO1 or 2 on MICROMASTER 4 or Siemens Telegramm 353 or 354 on Control
Units CU240S/D DP/DP-F/PN/PN-F of the SINAMICS G120/G120D
The parameter area includes always 4 words.

V4 29.01.2014 12/40
Parameter identifier (PKE), 1st word

The parameter identifier (PKE) is always a 16-bit value.
Bits 0 to 10 (PNU) contain the number of the relevant parameter.
Bit 11 is reserved.
Bits 12 to 15 (AK) contain the request or the response identifier.
The meaning of the request identifier for request telegrams (master inverter) is
shown in Table 2-1 Request identifier (master -> inverter). Request identifiers 11 to
14 are specific to a drive and not defined in the PROFIDrive Profile.
The meaning of the response identifier for response telegrams (inverter -> master)
is shown in Table 2-2.
The request identifier will determine which response identifiers are possible. If the
response identifier is 7 (cannot process request), then one of the fault numbers
listed in Table 2-3 will be stored in parameter value 2 (PWE2).

V4 29.01.2014 15/40
Parameter index (IND) 2nd word: Array Subindex High Byte

The array subindex (referred to simply as Subindex in the PROFIDrive Profile) is

an 8-bit value which is transferred in the high-order byte (bits 8 to 15) of the
parameter index (IND) when data are transferred cyclically via PPOs /Siemens
telegrams.
Function of the Array Subindex in IND
Array Subindex = 0254

If the subindex is transferred with values between 0 and 254 in a request, the
relevant parameter index is transferred in the case of an indexed parameter. For
the meaning of the individual indices of a parameter, please refer to the parameter
list in the inverter operating instructions.
In the case of a descriptive element, the number of the required element is
transferred. The meaning of descriptive elements can be found in the PROFIDrive
Profile, version 2.0.
Array Subindex = 255

A value of 255 for the array subindex is a MICROMASTER 4 / SINAMICS G120 /
G120D -specific, special function. If the array index is transferred with 255, all the
indices of an indexed parameter are transmitted simultaneously in one data block.
The function is meaningful only for acyclical data exchange mode using the data
set DS47.
V4 29.01.2014 16/40
Parameter index (IND) 2nd word: PARA PAGE SEL (Parameter Number
Extension (PNU extension) Low Byte
The low-order byte (bits 0 to 7) is not defined in PROFIDrive Profile version 2.0.
The low-order byte of the parameter index is used on MICROMASTER 4 and on
CUs of the SINAMICS G120 / G120D to be able to switch between pages of the
parameters and to address additional parameters with a number of >1999.
Function of PARA PAGE SEL

The byte to select the parameter page is only used to change the page of the
parameter No. and has the following effect:
If this byte is set to one of the values for the Parameter No. extension (PNU
extension) from Table 2-4, the Parameter No. (PNU) - transferred in the PKW
request - is provided with an appropriate offset (P2000, P4000, P6000, P8000,
P60000) in the frequency inverter and is then passed on.
Please take all values from Table 2-4 that can assume the least significant byte
and are used to address a certain parameter area.
Table 2-4 PNU extension to address parameters > 1999

Example coding for parameter no. in PKE and IND for P2016, index 3:
V4 29.01.2014 17/40
Parameter value (PWE) 3rd and 4th word
The parameter value (PWE) is always transmitted as a double word (32-bit). Only
one parameter value at a time can be transferred in a PPO / Siemens telegram.
A 32-bit parameter value comprises PWE1 (high-order word, 3rd word) and PWE2
(low-order word, 4th word).
A 16-bit parameter value is transferred in PWE2 (low-order word, 4th word). PWE1
(high-order word, 3rd word) must be set to 0 on the PROFIBUS-DP / PROFINET
master in this case.
Rules for processing requests/responses

1. A request or a response can only ever refer to one parameter.

2. The master must repeat a request continuously until it has received the
appropriate response.
3. The master detects the response to a request it has sent by
- evaluating the received word 1 - Parameter identifier (PKE):

- evaluating the response identifier (AK),
- evaluating the parameter number (PNU),
- evaluating the received word 2 - Parameter index (IND) if necessary, or
- evaluating the received words 3 and 4 - Parameter values PWE1 and PWE2 if
necessary.
4. The complete request must be sent in one telegram. Request telegrams cannot
be split. The same applies to responses.
5. In the case of response telegrams which contain parameter values, the drive
always returns the momentary parameter value when repeating response
telegrams.
6. If no information needs to be fetched from the PKW interface in cyclical
operation (only PZD data are relevant), then the "No request" request telegram
must be issued.

2.3 Example for using the PKW mechanism via PROFIBUS

and PROFINET
Overview
You will be shown how to read from and write to parameters of the
MICROMASTER 4 (MM4) frequency inverter and Control Units CU240S/D DP/DP-
F of the SINAMICS G120/G120D frequency inverter using PROFIBUS and Control
Units CU240S/D PN/PN-F using PROFINET in the following examples.
S7 project examples will also be available that you can download from the same
article.
Note
The correct GSD files must be installed and the necessary GSD files and telegram
types must be configured in HW Config in order to use the project example.

You can download the GSD files See links at chapter 1.1.1
Note
GSD files for MM4 and CU240S DP-F and telegram types PPO1 for MM4 and
Siemens telegram 354 for CU240S DP-F are used in the project examples.
If you wish to configure another frequency inverter / another CU - or another
telegram - then make the appropriate changes in HW Config.
Note
Set the parameters P0700 = 6 and P1000 = 6, if you want to control the drive via
PROFIBUS or PROFINET. The parameters P0700 and P1000 must not be
changed, if you only want to read or write parameters of the drive. You can leave
the old settings in this case.
Note
If you read-out or write parameters from / to the CUs of the SINAMICS
G120/G120D, set the parameter to select the PROFIdrive standard telegram
P0922 = 354 (Siemens telegram 354) before you use the project example.
More detailed information is provided in the Operating Instructions.
V4 29.01.2014 19/40
2.3.1 Read parameters
Example 1: Read parameter P0700 (Selection of command source)

In order to read a parameter, the parameter value must be requested and the
parameter number correctly addressed. The first PKW word is used for this
purpose Parameter identifier (PKE).
Use the Request identifier 1 = "request parameter value" to request the parameter
values (Request identifier AK = Request parameter value = 1, AK = 1, refer to
Table 2-1). The Request identifier 1 is written into bits 12 to 15 of the 1st word
(refer to Fig. 2-1).
The Parameter number (PNU) must be converted into the hexadecimal format and
written into bits 0 to 10.
Conversion: 700 dec = 2BC hex.
This means that the 1st word is: 12BC.
Because we read-out index 0 of the parameter and the parameter number is <
1999 - then the 2nd word is: 0000.
The 3rd and 4th words must be set to 0:
Request PROFIBUS / PROFINET => MM4 / CU240

And the request to read parameter P0700 is obtained:
1st word (PKE): 12BC
2nd word (IND): 0000
3rd word (PWE1): 0000
4th word (PWE2): 0000
Response MM4 / CU240 => PROFIBUS / PROFINET

The response:
1st word (PKE): 12BC
- indicates that it is a word with the value 0002 (hex).
Result
P0700 = 2 (command source via terminal)
V4 29.01.2014 20/40
Example 2: Read parameter P1082 (Max. frequency)

Example 2 shows, how to read P1082 (Max. frequency).
Request identifier AK: Request parameter value = 1
Conversion of the PNU: 1082 dec = 43A hex
Therefore the following is obtained for the 1st word: 143A.
Because we read-out index 0 of the parameter and the parameter number is <
1999 - then the 2nd word is: 0000.
The 3rd and 4th words must be set to 0.

1st word (PKE): 143A

- requests value of P1082.

The response:
- indicates that it is a double word with the value 4248 0000 (IEEE floating value).
The IEEE floating format is as follows:

Bit 31 = sign
Bit 23 to Bit 30 = exponent
Bit 0 to Bit 22 = mantissa specified by a decimal value:
Value = ((-1) to power of sign) x (2 to power of (exponent - 127)) x 1.mantissa.
For this example the

sign = 0,
exponent = 84 (hex) = 132,
and the
mantissa (1).900000 = [1 + 9/16 + 0/256 + ...]
giving (1) x (32) x (1.5625) = 50.00 [Hz]
For more information on converting floating-point numbers, please refer to the FAQ
Entry-ID: 23803063 Converting floating-point numbers.
V4 29.01.2014 21/40
Example 3: Read parameter P2000 (Reference frequency)

Example 3 shows, how to read P2000 (Reference frequency).
To read a parameter greater than P1999, you must set the PNU extension in the
2nd word (IND, refer to Table 2-4).
Depending on which page the parameter is required, an appropriate PNU
extension must be selected and set in the 2nd word (IND). The parameter number
(PNU) is then assigned an offset (P2000, P4000, P6000, P8000, P60000), that
must be subtracted from the parameter number. The difference must be converted
into the hexadecimal format.
Converting the PNU:

(PNU offset) = (2000 - 2000) dec = 0 dec = 0 hex
The following is obtained for the 1st word: 1000.

The PNU extension for the parameter area 20003999 is 80 (see table 2-4).
Index 0 of parameter P2000 is read-out, therefore the subindex = 0.
Thus the following is obtained for the 2nd word: 0080.

1st word (PKE): 1000
- requests the value from P2000.

The response:
- indicates that it is a double word with the value 4248 0000 (IEEE floating value),
i.e. 50.00.
Result
the value is 50.00 [Hz].
V4 29.01.2014 22/40
Example 4: Read parameter P9810 (PROFIsafe destination address) of the CU240S/D DP-
F/PN-F
Example 4 shows how to read the parameter P9810 (PROFIsafe destination
address) of the Safety Control Units CU240S/D DP-F/PN-F.
Converting the PNU:

(PNU offset) = (9810 - 8000) dec = 1810 dec = 712 hex
Thus the following is obtained for the 1st word: 1712.

PNU extension: 20 (see table 2-4)
Subindex = 0, as parameter P9810 does not have an index assignment.

Request PROFIBUS / PROFINET => CU240S/D DP-F/PN-F

- requests the value from P9810.
Response CU240S/D DP-F/PN-F => PROFIBUS / PROFINET

The response:
4th word (PWE2): 00C8
- indicates that it is a word with value 00C8 hex = 200 dec.
Result
PROFIsafe destination address of the Control Unit P9810 = 200
V4 29.01.2014 23/40
Example 5: Read parameter P2010[1] (USS baudrate, USS on BOP link)

This example shows how to read the parameter P2010[1] (USS baudrate, USS on
BOP link).
Converting the PNU:

(PNU offset) = (2010 - 2000) dec = 10 dec = A hex
Thus the following is obtained for the 1st word: 100A.
To read the value of a parameter index you must define the index in bits 0 to 7 of
the 2nd PKW word (IND):

Subindex = 1, as index 1 is read-out.


- requests the value from P2010 index 1.

The response:
Result
The value 6 (hex / dec) is equivalent to 9600 baud.
In this case, Request identifier 6: Request parameter value (array) could also be
used. The send and receive data would then be:
V4 29.01.2014 24/40

1st word (PKE): 600A (6: Request parameter value array)
- requests the value from P2010 index 1.

The response:
1st word (PKE): 400A (4: Transfer parameter value array, word)

Result
The value 6 (hex / dec) is equivalent to 9600 baud.
V4 29.01.2014 25/40
2.3.2 Write parameters
Example 6: Change the value of P1082 (Max. frequency)

To write to a parameter, you must know whether it has a word or double word
parameter value and use the Request identifier 2 (Modify parameter value (word))
or 3 (Modify parameter value (double word)) appropriately.
To find this out, you can first read the parameter value via PROFIBUS/PROFINET
(the information is also available in the Parameter List).
In this example the value of P1082 should be changed from 50.00[Hz] to 40[Hz],
RAM only.
Read value (see also the example 2)


- requests value of P1082.

The response:
- Response identifier 2 indicates that it is a double word. This means that we must
use task the Request identifier 3: change parameter value (double word), RAM
only.
Change parameter value

Request identifier AK: Modify parameter value (double word) = 3
Converting the PNU: 1082 dec = 43A hex
Because we write index 0 of the parameter and the parameter number is < 1999,
the 2nd word is: 0000.
In order to change the parameter value to 40.00 (IEEE floating value = 4220 0000),
the 3rd and 4th words must be correspondingly set to 4220 and 0000.
V4 29.01.2014 26/40

- changes the value of the P1082 to 40.00.

The response:

- confirms that the value was changed.
Note
If modified values are to be saved in the EEPROM, then use the Request identifier
13 = D hex (Modify parameter value (double word) and store in EEPROM). This
should not be permanently and cyclically repeated as otherwise the EEPROM
could be damaged.
V4 29.01.2014 27/40
Example 7: Evaluating an error response

In the example 6, it was assumed that the drive inverter is not running. If the
correct change telegram is sent with the drive inverter running, the inverter
responds with the Response identifier 7 "cannot process request", as P1082
cannot be changed while the inverter is running. The error number is in the
parameter value range PWE2.

- an attempt to change the value of P1082 to 40.00.

1st word (PKE): 743A (7: cannot process request)

4th word (PWE2): 0011 (Error number)
Result
The error number is 11 hex = 17 dec > "Request cannot be processed due to
operating state: Current inverter status is not compatible with the received
request".
V4 29.01.2014 28/40
Beispiel 8: Setting P0845 (second source of OFF2)

Example 8 shows how to set P0845 (second source of OFF2) to 722.2.
Note
For CU240S/D DP/DP-F/PN/PN-F some parameters cannot be changed if the
standard telegram is selected (P0700 = 6, P0922 = standard telegram, in the
example Siemens telegram 354), for example P0844 (first source of OFF2).
This sets digital input 3/2 for OFF2 (coast stop).
Requirement:
P0703 must be set to 99 (enable BiCo parameterization, digital input 3/21) to make
722.2 an available value in P0845.
Request identifier AK: Modify parameter value (double word) = 3
Converting the PNU: 845 dec = 34D hex

Thus the following is obtained for the 1st word: 334D.
Because we write index 0 of parameter P0845 and the parameter number is <
1999, the 2nd word is: 0000.
Conversion for PWE1 and PWE2: 722 dec = 2D2 hex; 2 dec = 2 hex
The 3rd and 4th words are thus given by: 02D2 and 0002.
1st word (PKE): 334D
3rd word (PWE1): 02D2
----------------------
1
Digital input 3 for MM4, digital input 2 for CUs of the SINAMICS G120 and
SINAMICS G120D
V4 29.01.2014 29/40

The response:
1st word (PKE): 234D
3rd word (PWE1): 02D2
Hint
P0845 = second source of OFF2 / 722.2 = Digital input 3/21.
V4 29.01.2014 30/40
Example 9: Change the value of the parameter P2010[1] (USS baudrate, USS on BOP link)
This example shows how to change the value of the parameter P2010[1] (USS
baudrate, USS on BOP link) from 6 (9600 Baud) to 8 (38400 Baud).
Request identifier AK: Modify parameter value (word) = 2
Converting the PNU:

(PNU offset) = (2010 - 2000) dec = 10 dec = A hex
To write the value of a parameter index you must define the index in bits 0 to 7 of
the 2nd PKW word (IND):
Subindex = 1, as index 1 is written.

The 3. word PWE1 = 0000, because we write the parameter value of the type
word.
Conversion vor PWE2: 8 dec = 8 hex.


- changes the value of P2010[1] to 8.

The response:
V4 29.01.2014 31/40
In this case, Request identifier 7: Request parameter value (array) could also be
used. The send and receive data would then be:

1st word (PKE): 700A (7: Modify parameter value array, word)
- changes the value of P2010[1] to 8.

The response:
1st word (PKE): 400A (4: Transfer parameter value array, word)
V4 29.01.2014 32/40
2.4 Using the project examples

Information and instructions when configuring in HW-Config
Please note that when configuring a PROFIBUS module (CU240S/D DP/DP-F) of
the SINAMICS G120/G120D frequency inverter with GSD files and when setting-up
Siemens telegrams 354 or 353 two separate slots exist for the PKW and PZD
areas (refer to Fig. 2-4) and when configuring a PROFINET module (CU240S/D
PN/PN-F) of the SINAMICS G120/G120D frequency inverter with GSD files and
setting-up the Siemens telegram 354 or 353 only one slot is available for the PKW
and PZD areas (refer to Fig. 2-5).
This special feature impacts the way in which the request and response tasks are
sent to the drive and must be received from the drive if data exchange is
established between the drive and an S7 control. For instance, using the standard
S7 functions SFC14 and SFC15.
When exchanging data with a PROFIBUS module (CU240S/D DP/DP-F) the

request and response tasks for the PKW and PZD areas must be separately sent
with the SFC14 and SFC15 (received). In so doing the I/O start addresses and the
lengths of the telegram sections for the PKW and PZD areas must be observed.
Figure 2-4
When exchanging data with a PROFINET module (CU240S/D PN/PN-F) the

request and response tasks for the PKW and PZD areas must be sent together
with the SFC14 and SFC15 (received). In so doing, only the I/O start addresses
and the length of the complete telegram have to be observed.
V4 29.01.2014 33/40
Figure 2-5
For instance, if Siemens telegram 354 is set-up for data exchange, then for
PROFIBUS modules- first 4 PKW words (8 bytes) and then 6 PZD words (12 bytes)
should be sent to the module in two separate request tasks. In the same way - 4
PKW words (8 bytes) and 6 PZD words (12 bytes) should be received from the
module in two separate response tasks. This means that each of the SFC14 and
SFC15 functions are called twice in the program. If only the PKW area of the
frequency inverter has to be read-out or only the drive controlled - then only one
area can be addressed (PKW or PZD) with the corresponding I/O addresses. Each
of the SFC14 and SFC15 are only called once.
For PROFINET modules and data exchange using telegram 354, 4 PKW words (8
bytes) and 6 PZD words (12 bytes), i.e. 10 words (20 bytes) should be sent as a
total to the module in a request task. 10 words (20 bytes) are also received in one
response task from the module. This means that each of the SFC14 and SFC15
functions are only called once in the program. If only the PKW area of the
frequency inverter is to be read-out, or only the drive control - then zeros should be
assigned to the words of the area not used (PKW or PZD). The I/O start addresses
for the complete telegram must in any case always be used.
V4 29.01.2014 34/40
Handling the project examples

Variable tables are used to handle the project examples. Here, the 4 PKW words
should be entered for the task (request) and the response from the drive read-out.
It is also possible to control the drive using the variable table and to receive
diagnostic and status information & data from the drive that is then displayed.
PKW mechanism request:

1st word PKE: DB1.DBW 0
2nd word IND: DB1.DBW 2
3rd word PWE1: DB1.DBW 4
1. 4th word PWE2: DB1.DBW 6
PKW mechanism response:

1st word PKE: DB1.DBW 20

2. 2nd word IND: DB1.DBW 22
3rd word PWE1: DB1.DBW 24
4th word PWE2: DB1.DBW 26
3.
Controlling the drive via

PZD:
- Control word 1
4. (STW1): DB1.DBW 8
- Main setpoint (HSW):
DB1.DBW 10
Receive diagnostic and
status information from
the drive:
PZD1: DBW 28
PZD2: DBW 30
PZD3: DBW 32
PZD4: DBW 34
PZD5: DBW 36
PZD6: DBW 38
Upper section 1. PKW mechanism Request

The 4 words (PKE, IND, PWE1 and PWE2) of the PKW request are entered in the
upper section.
Center section 2. PKW mechanism Response

The PKW response from the drive is shown in the center section 2 of the variable
table.
Center section 3rd controlling the drive via PZD

The center section 3 of the variable table is used to control the drive. The control
word 1 (STW1: DB1.DBW 8) and main setpoint (HSW: DB1.DBW 10) are sent to
the drive. The drive is started by sending control word 047E, followed by 047F
(edge of bit 0: ON). The main setpoint HSW = 4000 (hex) corresponds to 50 Hz.
V4 29.01.2014 35/40
Lower section 4th receiving diagnostics information from the drive

The diagnostic and status information & data received from the drive are displayed
in the lower section 4 of the variable table. The number of PZD words, used to
transfer diagnostic and status information & data depends on the telegram type
that has been selected.
