7 Introduction 2 SIMATIC PCS 7 provides the option of integrating field devices on H1 (hereafter referred to simply as FF). FF devices are generally connected to a SIMATIC station via a bus link on PROFIBUS DP (e.g. FF Link). Bus links are gateways between bus systems and enable the communication connection of the bus systems. The following bus links are typically used for the communication between PROFIBUS DP and in PCS 7 systems. FF Link Compact FF Link Examples for configuration of FF segments in PCS 7 The display shows an example of the connection of FF devices to the automation system. The additional use of the active field distributor enables mutual decoupling in case of FF device faults. SIMATIC PCS 7 supports the connection of FF devices SIMATIC PCS 7 supports the connection of FF devices by way of the following functions: Central engineering without additional tools Import of the electronic device descriptions (EDD) of FF devices (you can find additional information about this in the section "Device integration with EDD (Page 12)") Commissioning Manual, 02/2015, A5E AC 7

10 Introduction 10 Commissioning Manual, 02/2015, A5E AC

11 Basics of the 3 (FF) and PROFIBUS PA operate according to IEC The communication on the fieldbus and the voltage supply of the bus nodes are combined in one shielded two-wire cable. Up to 32 bus nodes are possible on one FF segment (bus link + maximum of 31 field devices). Data packets are modulated and transmitted on the supply voltage for the fieldbus nodes. The transfer rate is Kbps. The most important distinctions between PROFIBUS PA and Licensing You need the "PDM Foundation Fieldbus" license key to work with SIMATIC PDM. Operating mode PROFIBUS PA devices are operated in master/slave mode. FF devices are operated in publisher/subscriber mode. Connection to PROFIBUS DP PROFIBUS PA devices are connected to up to five FDC 157 DP/PA couplers via DP/PA- Link (redundancy with 2 fieldbus couplers possible). FF devices are connected to the automation system via a bus link. The following bus links are approved for PCS 7: FF Link Configuration with an IM FFinterface module and FDC 157 fieldbus coupler (redundancy with 2 fieldbus couplers possible) Compact FF Link Configuration with Compact FF Link (redundancy with 2 Compact FF Link possible) Communication with the automation system PROFIBUS PA devices only communicate via the automation system. An exception to this rule is the direct access to a PA device. FF devices can communicate on the FF segment without involvement of the automation system. The name of this function is "Control in the field" (CiF). CiF enables technological function between FF devices. Terms used for (FF) Publisher and Subscriber In the time period during which an FF device sends data to the FF, it is referred to as the Publisher. Commissioning Manual, 02/2015, A5E AC 11

12 Basics of the 3.1 Device integration with EDD In the time period during which an FF device reads data from the FF, it is referred to as the Subscriber. The schedule defines when a Publisher sends data and when a Subscriber receives data. Client and Server The client-server principle is used for acyclic services. Communication types Two types of communication are used with FF: Cyclic communication Cyclic communication is defined in the schedule. It includes tasks such as closed-loop control of process values (control functions) and operator control and monitoring functions. Acyclic communication Acyclic communication is used for transmitting unscheduled information. Examples of this information are: Maintenance/diagnostic data Configuration data Parameter assignment data Schedule and LAS (Link Active Scheduler) The time at which an FF device transmits or reads cyclic data is defined in the schedule for the FF. The schedule prevents conflicts on the FF segment during communication. A bus link performs the LAS function in PCS 7 during normal operation. If no bus link is online on the FF segment, suitable FF devices (Link Master) can assume the LAS function. Macro cycle The macro cycle is a time period that must be defined for each system. The following tasks must be performed during this time period: All FF devices must be processed. Information must be transmitted by means of acyclic communication. The FF specification recommends that at least 50% of the bus time be kept free for acyclic communication. 3.1 Device integration with EDD FF devices are integrated in the control system in PCS 7 using the application SIMATIC PDM. Note Integrating FF device descriptions Device descriptions of FF devices that you do not find on the "Device Library..." DVD provided with SIMATIC PDM must be modified before the integration. Please speak with your contact (Page 19) about this. 12 Commissioning Manual, 02/2015, A5E AC

13 Basics of the 3.1 Device integration with EDD Liability Siemens explicitly declines any liability for damages resulting from the use of the following device description files and use in conjunction with the associated devices: For device-specific device description files for non-siemens devices, the Siemens warranty only applies up to the interface. For device description files integrated through catalogs NOTICE Important note on the device description files included with the SIMATIC PDM The device description files of non-siemens field devices have not been developed by Siemens and are included with the shipped products free of charge. The licensee is entitled to use the device description files of these devices in the same manner as a trial license in accordance with the general terms and conditions for the supply of software for automation and drive technology. This right of use may be exercised by the licensee as long as the right of use for the PDM software is in effect. Standardized device descriptions Standardized device descriptions enable intelligent field devices from different manufacturers to be integrated in different control systems. The IEC standard governs the structure of device descriptions (DD). This standard was developed in cooperation with the following organizations: PROFIBUS User Organization (PNO) Hart Communication Foundation (HCF) Fieldbus FOUNDATION OPC Foundation The device descriptions are based on the EDDL (Electronic Device Description Language). Information in device descriptions Device descriptions contain all information required for correct interpretation of device data. Pre-defined device descriptions (standard DDs) describe the key parameters. These standard DDs are available from the user organizations, for example, through the Fieldbus FOUNDATION. FF devices can interpret and display the data and functions of this standard DD. The basic functions of the user interface are stored in the standard DD. Device-specific functions and parameters can be stored in an extended device description. The device description specifies the rules for the instantiation of blocks: Number and type of the initially automatically created, deletable blocks (default blocks) Maximum of all instantiable blocks Maximum of the instantiable blocks of a certain type Hardware-dependent, type-specific limitations of the maximum number of blocks Commissioning Manual, 02/2015, A5E AC 13

14 Basics of the 3.2 Device addresses Additional information IEC IEC Section "Block model of device parameters (Page 15)" 3.2 Device addresses Address ranges in PCS 7 Address range The following table shows the distribution of address ranges for the FF segment: Information on the address range 0 to 15 Reserved by the system (use not permitted) 16 to 19 Reserved range for bus link: Address FF Link (IM und FDC 157) 16: IM for PROFIBUS DP (with redundant configuration: left IM) Compact FF Link (IM FF with integrated Field Device Coupler) Compact FF Link (with redundant configuration: left Compact FF Link) 17 with redundant configuration: right IM with redundant configuration: right Compact FF Link 20 to 35 SIEMENS Polled Range: reserved for cyclical data exchange with FF devices (optional expansion up to 50) 36 to 231 SIEMENS Unpolled Range: FF devices in this address range are only recognized if the "standard range" has been extended. You can find information on this in the section "Specifying the device identification of the FF devices (TAG name and address) (Page 55)". 232 to 247 SIEMENS reserve range: Reserved address range for new FF devices or FF devices that are not in operation, and for FF devices that are only temporarily connected 248 to 251 Range for temporary FF devices Devices that are made available and that require a device address. Devices that are moved to this range by the automatic address conflict resolution (up to four FF devices) Devices that were removed from processing (using the "Reset address" function) You will find information on this in the online help of SIMATIC PDM Note for users: Make sure that there are always free addresses in this range. This enables automatic assignment of a temporary address to new FF devices. Some actions of SIMATIC PDM are based on the availability of this address range (e.g., "Assign address and TAG"). 252 to 255 Range for LAS-compliant temporary FF devices Automatic address conflict resolution for device addresses Connected FF devices will be detected automatically at the FF segment. 14 Commissioning Manual, 02/2015, A5E AC

15 Basics of the 3.3 Block model of device parameters In the case of an address conflict, one of the FF devices affected by the address conflict will automatically be assigned a temporary address during runtime. The procedure is repeated automatically until the existing address conflicts are resolved. The device addresses 248 to 251 have been reserved for automatic address conflict resolution at the FF segment. Note The device address that was assigned to an FF device by automatic address conflict resolution will not be saved in the FF device. Note the following when you use automatic address conflict resolution: You may not connect or switch on for the first time more than 4 new FF devices with the same address at the FF segment. You have to change the device addresses of FF devices that have been assigned to one of the temporary addresses. 3.3 Block model of device parameters The parameters (functions and data of an FF device) are assigned to block types in the device descriptions of the FF devices: Block type Resource block Function block Transducer block Note One resource block per FF device. Multiple function blocks are possible for an FF device Multiple transducer blocks are possible for an FF device. Note Parameter assignment with SIMATIC PDM The SIMATIC PDM application is used in PCS 7 for parameter assignment of the FF devices. Block types Resource block The resource block contains device-specific information of the manufacturer. Examples of this are: Manufacturer Device type Device number Serial number Hardware version Firmware version Commissioning Manual, 02/2015, A5E AC 15

16 Basics of the 3.3 Block model of device parameters Function block Function blocks provide information about the functions available in an FF device as well as their tasks. The schedules of the clocked data transmission defined in the schedule are based on these function blocks. Access to the functions and their inputs and outputs is defined via the function blocks. Each FF device has at least one function block. Standard profiles for function blocks are defined in the FF specification. A description of the basic functions is possible with the help of these standard profiles. Table 3-1 Examples of the most important standard profiles for function blocks: Block designation AI AO B CS DI DO ML PD PID RA Function Analog input Analog output Offset (bias) Control selector Digital input Digital output Manual loader PD controller (proportional/derivative) PID controller (proportional/integral/derivative) Ratio controller Transducer block Transducer blocks make it possible to influence the input and output variables of a function block. Examples of this are: Calibration and conversion of measured and control data Linearization of characteristic curves Conversion of physical quantities using other process data Multiple capability levels Some manufacturers offer FF devices in variants with a scalable scope of function and transducer blocks. These variants are designated as capability levels in FOUNDATION Fieldbus. You can find information on this in the section "Capability levels (device variants) (Page 18)". 16 Commissioning Manual, 02/2015, A5E AC

17 Basics of the 3.3 Block model of device parameters Block types in HW Config and in SIMATIC PDM In the device catalogs of HW Config and SIMATIC PDM, you will find the following groups of device-specific blocks: Property Permanent blocks Default blocks Instantiable blocks Identifier in the configuration in HW Config Font in the configuration in HW Config Section with attributes in the device description FB FB FB TYPE (only for devices with capability level) TB TYPE Italic Not italic Not italic Per instance Per instance Per block type Visibility in the catalog Not visible Visible Visible Configuration Automatically created Automatically created Must be inserted manually Deletion capability Cannot be deleted Can be deleted and re-inserted Can be deleted Objects of the block model In PCS 7, applications in the PC stations assume the functions of FF-specific objects: Engineering station Configuration of the Interconnection of the FF devices Interconnections for the process image You can find information on this in the section "How to replace an FF device (Page 39)". Interconnections within the FF devices You can find information about this in the following sections: - Section " Interconnection Editor" dialog box (Page 37)" - Section "How to configure FF-internal interconnections (Control in the field) (Page 35)" Operator stations and Maintenance Station Output of signals Alarms Events Monitoring Process control Maintenance Long-term archiving Commissioning Manual, 02/2015, A5E AC 17

18 Basics of the 3.4 Capability levels (device variants) 3.4 Capability levels (device variants) Some manufacturers offer FF devices in device variants with a scaled scope of functions. These device variants are designated as "capability levels" in. Common features and differences based on capability level Common features The devices use the same device description. The general device properties defined in the device description are identical. Differences Within the capability level, the following types of function and transducer blocks are defined: Permanent blocks Initially created, deletable default blocks Instantiable blocks (for devices with capability level) The type and number of blocks can be different. Instantiable blocks can only be selected if at least one capability level is defined for a device. Selecting the capability level in the device catalogs In the device catalogs of HW Config and SIMATIC PDM, you will find capability levels at the following place: In the tree view as a hierarchy level below the device revision of the FF devices. Examples Device without capability level Device with capability level Device with instantiable blocks Device Device revision Device revision Device Device revision Device revision Capability level 1 Capability level 2 Device Device revision Device revision Capability level 1 Capability level 2 - Instantiable block FB TYPE <...> - Instantiable block FB TYPE <...> Configuring the capability level 1. In the hardware configuration, select the capability level supported by your device. 2. Configure the blocks for the device (add/delete). Observe the following sections: You can find information about the properties of the blocks in the section "Block model of device parameters (Page 15)". You can find information about the device description in the section "Device integration with EDD (Page 12)". 18 Commissioning Manual, 02/2015, A5E AC

19 Basics of the 3.5 Contact partner Communication and downloading of FF devices with capability level When the FF segment is downloaded, the instantiated blocks are created in the devices. You can find additional information about downloading in the section "Downloading objects in the FF segment (Page 60)". The automation system (host) can only communicate with the device if the capability level of the device matches the configured capability level. 3.5 Contact partner Your contact partner (not for demo version) Questions on SIMATIC STEP 7 / SIMATIC PCS 7 / hardware / SIMATIC PDM / problems with S7 communication Mailing address: Internet: SIEMENS AG Customer Support D Nuremberg, Germany online-support.industry@siemens.com ( Questions on devices and GSD files Please get in touch with your contact partner at the device manufacturer.

21 System planning Nodes in the An FF segment contains all nodes communicating via the. The following information is used for the system-specific optimization of FF segments. Size of the process image An FF segment is restricted to the size of the process image of the bus link (max. 244 bytes I/ O in each case). The 244 bytes for inputs can be divided among the FF devices: Digital inputs (2 bytes per value, however maximum 40 DI) Analog inputs (5 bytes per value, however maximum 40 AI) The 244 bytes for outputs can be divided among the FF devices: Digital outputs (2 bytes per value, however maximum 40 DO) Analog outputs (5 bytes per value, however maximum 40 AO) A maximum of 64 bytes can be used for outputs and 64 bytes for inputs for each FF device. Nodes in an FF segment The maximum number of nodes in an FF segment depends on the requirements of a plant regarding update times. Typical number of FF devices that are integrated in a plant in an FF segment: 8 to 10 (maximum number 31) The time for a macro cycle is influenced primarily by the share of cyclic communication. This share depends on the following factors: Properties of the FF devices used in the FF segment Number of input values and output values of all components connected to the FF segment You can specify a target value for the macro cycle as well as for the ratio between the cyclic and acyclic share. The schedule is calculated for these conditions. If a mean time of approximately 30 ms is assumed for the output of a value from FF devices, and the block run time is considered as acyclic bus time, then the minimum macro cycle for 15 transmitted values will be approximately one second. The time for output of a value depends on the device in question. Commissioning Manual, 02/2015, A5E AC 21

22 System planning 4.2 Configuration Sample calculation 15 x 30 ms = 450 ms, corresponds to the cyclic bus time Reserved bus time for acyclic communication 1050 ms (recommended 70%), 450 ms (recommended, at least 50%) Recommended macro cycle = between 1500 ms and 9000 ms Current consumption The permissible current consumption of all components on an FF segment depends on the type of bus link: FF Link: Maximum 1 A Compact FF Link: Maximum 500 ma I/O data The parameters, inputs and outputs of FF devices are distributed over function blocks. An FF device can have several function blocks. Only configure the required I/O data of an FF device. The number of processed function blocks has an effect on the macro cycle. 4.2 Configuration Hardware Always connect an FF segment to the automation system via PROFIBUS DP. You need a suitable bus link for the transition between PROFIBUS DP and the FF segment. The bus link can be operated on the integrated line of the CPU if the CPU supports the data record gateway. The table shows possible CPU versions: CPU type As of version SIMATIC S7 41x V5.1 SIMATIC S7 41xH V6.0 WinAC RTX V4.6 Network configuration The following structures are typical for the configuration of FF segments in PCS 7: Line Redundant configuration (see also section "Redundancy (Page 67)") 22 Commissioning Manual, 02/2015, A5E AC

23 System planning 4.2 Configuration Line lengths An FF segment can be up to 1900 m long when the appropriate bus cable (type A) is used. NOTICE FF segment running into hazardous areas of zones 0 or 20 (Ex ia) If spur lines from an FF segment run into these hazardous areas, the maximum allowed length of the FF segment is 1000 m. When components suitable for hazardous areas are used, greater distances may be possible (e.g. Active Field Distributor - AFDiS). Check the technical specifications of the components. Spur lines If possible, only one device should be connected to each spur line. You need to include the lengths of spur lines to the FF devices in the calculation of the FF segment length. The permissible length of each spur line depends on the number of spur lines and connected devices. If more than one device is connected to a spur line, the permissible length of the spur line is reduced. Each additional connected device reduces the maximum length of the spur line by 30 m. Number of spur lines (longer than 1 m) Permissible length of a spur line (length in meters) Spur line outside Ex ia SIMATIC Fieldbus Calculator Spur line in Ex ia The SIMATIC Fieldbus Calculator provides support for the calculation and design of fieldbus segments with an active field distributor. You enter the relevant physical data (cable lengths, base current of the devices, topology, etc.) for every fieldbus segment. The electrical variables are calculated based on the specified configuration and limit violations are reported. You can find additional information on this topic on the Internet ( WW/view/en/ ).
