SINAUT PG Routing
4.2 System requirements for PG routing
Software
436 System Manual, 07/2009, C79000-G8976-C222-07
4.2.1 STEP 7
STEP 7 at least version 5.1,service pack 3 must be installed on your PG/PC. Only then is
your PG/PC capable of routing and it is guaranteed that the routing SDBs are compiled with
the correct content.
4.2.2 The SINAUT software package
The routing SDB (SDB type 3002) can only be compiled for the TIM modules with the
SINAUT software package as of the version V 3.0. The LAN SDB (SDB type 3201) also
includes extra parameters required for PG routing. PG routing can only be used over TIM
modules on which these routing and LAN SDBs are loaded.
Note
The routing-SDB (SDB type 3002) is compiled only for TIM modules that actually require this
information.
No routing SDB is compiled for a TIM installed as a CP in an S7-300 station if there is no
local network such as MPI bus or PROFIBUS DP in this station. The absence of the routing
SDB in the SDB directory is not, in this case, a compilation error. Although the routing SDB
is missing, this TIM and the connected S7-300 CPU can be accessed using PG routing.
Table 4- 4 Overview of the SDBs
SDB type Contents
0 Standard SIMATIC SDB
700 Communication function block connection parameter
3002 Routing SDB
3201 LAN data
3202 WAN data
3203 SINAUT subscriber data
3205 Parameter for X connection
Apart from SDB type 0, the SDBs of the type 3201, 3202, 3203 and 3205 are always
compiled for the TIM, the SDB types 700 and 3002, on the other hand, only when necessary.
4.2.3 RMOS operating system of the TIM 4
Whether a TIM of the type TIM 4 is suitable for PG routing, depends, among other things, on
the version of the RMOS operating system of the TIM. In this respect, there are versions
ideally suited for PG routing and versions that mean certain restrictions:
● TIM modules with an RMOS version older than 2.04 are not routing-compliant.
● TIM modules with an RMOS version as of 2.04 are routing-compliant but involve
restrictions regarding the number of remote subnets. No more than 10 remote subnets
may be configured in the SINAUT project.
