Overview
For motor control using AS-Interface there are the following
M200D motor starter versions: SIRIUS M200D AS-i Basic and
SIRIUS M200D AS-i Standard (for details of basic functionality
see Page 6/97 "M200D motor starters" --> "General data" -->
"Overview").
SIRIUS M200D AS-i Basic
Functionality
• Easy and fast on-site start-up through parameterization of
local setting elements (DIP switches) and rotary coding
switches for adjusting the rated operational current. The rotary
coding switch has an OFF position for deactivating the over-
load protection with the help of the thermal motor model when
using a temperature sensor.
Communication
• AS-i communication with A/B addressing according to Spec
V2.1
• The AS-i bus is connected cost-effectively using an M12 con-
nection on the device. Of the 4 digital inputs, 2 are contained
in the process image and can therefore be used in the PLC
program. The other 2 inputs are locally effective and perma-
nently assigned with functions.
• The LEDs can provide comprehensive diagnostics of the de-
vice on the spot. In addition to diagnostics using the PAE pro-
cess image, the device can create up to 15 different diagnos-
tic signals per slave. The message with the highest priority
can be read out through the AS-i communication. This is yet
another new development which distinguishes the M200D AS-
i Basic motor starter from the rest of the market and adds in-
novative technology, maximum availability and transparency
to the system.
SIRIUS M200D AS-i Standard
The intelligent, highly flexible M200D AS-i Standard motor start-
ers in A/B technology are designed to start and protect motors
and loads up to 5.5 kW. They are available in direct-on-line or re-
versing starter versions, in a mechanical version and also an
electronic version (the latter with soft start function).
The M200D AS-i Standard motor starter is the most functional
member of the SIRIUS motor starter family in the high degree of
protection IP65 for AS-i Communication. Consistency with other
products of the SIRIUS M200D motor starter range and with the
frequency converter and ET 200pro peripherals system is as-
sured.
Functionality
• AS-i communication with A/B addressing according to
Spec 3.0
• Electronic version also with soft start function
• AS-i slave profile 7AE/7A5 with process image 6I/4O
• Full TIA integration: All digital inputs and outputs exist in the
cyclic process image and are visible through AS-i, providing
maximum flexibility and best adaptability to the application.
• Additionally expanded diagnostics using data record through
AS-i bus
• Complete plant monitoring using statistics data record and
current value monitoring by means of data records
• Parameterization through AS-i bus with the help of data re-
cords or an expanded process image from the user program
• Control of the motor starter using a command data record from
the user program
• Flexible assignment of the digital inputs and outputs with all
available assignable input actions
• Parameterization using Motor Starter ES at the local interface
(ordering option for start-up software)
• Diagnostics with the help of Motor Starter ES
(ordering option for start-up software)
Mounting and installation
The M200D motor starters can be installed with a few manual
steps. The integrated plug-in technology enables far lower wir-
ing outlay. Connecting cables can be plugged directly onto the
motor starter module. Swapping of the connecting wires and
malfunctions within the plant are prevented by preassembled
cables. The AS-i bus is connected cost-effectively using an M12
connection on the device. All versions have identical enclosure
dimensions for easier system configuration and conversion.
Parameterization and configuration
The particularly robust M200D AS-i Standard motor starter is
characterized by numerous functions which can be flexibly pa-
rameterized. It enables highly flexible parameterization through
the AS-i bus using data records from the user program as well
as user-friendly local parameterization using the Motor Starter
ES start-up software through the local point-to-point interface.
Functions can be flexibly assigned to the digital inputs and out-
puts, adapting them to all possible conveyor applications. All
motor protection functions, limit values and reactions can be de-
fined by parameterization. The AS-i Standard is unique. In its
6I/4O process image the motor starter sends all 4 digital inputs
and the digital output via the process image to the PLC in cyclic
mode. System configuration and system documentation are fa-
cilitated not least by a number of CAX data.
Operation
The new motor starter generation is characterized by high func-
tionality, maximum flexibility and the highest level of automation.
All digital inputs and outputs exist in the cyclic process image.
All limit values for monitoring functions and their reactions are
parameterizable and therefore adaptable to the application. The
motor starters record the actual current flow. Evaluating the cur-
rent of the parameterizable solid-state overload protection in-
creases the availability of the drives, as do reliable messages
concerning the overranging or underranging of setpoint values.
Diagnostics and maintenance
The M200D sets new standards for diagnostics. In addition to
diagnostics using the PAE process image and diagnostics by
"parameter echo" (up to 15 different diagnostic signals per slave
can be read out via AS-i Communication), the possibility of read-
ing out diagnostic data records is unique on the market.
The AS-i Standard is recommended in particular for expansive
and highly automated plant parts because the possibility of
monitoring devices and systems with data records (statistical
data, measured values and device diagnostics) provides an in-
depth view of the plant from the control room, guaranteeing the
monitoring process and increasing plant availability.
The integrated maintenance timer can be used to implement
preventative maintenance and avoid plant downtimes through
look-ahead servicing.
Local on-site control of a drive is possible using the ordering
option with integrated manual operation. This is yet another new
development which distinguishes the M200D AS-i Standard
motor starter from the rest of the market and adds innovative
technology, maximum availability and transparency to the plant.
