Creating and copying data sets (offline)
Drive and command data sets (DDS and CDS) can be added in the drive's configuration
screen. For this, the appropriate buttons must be pressed. Before data sets are copied, all
the wiring needed for both data sets should be completed.
For more information about data sets, refer to the Basics chapter in the SINAMICS S120
Function Manual Drive Functions.
Download to target device
You can use this function to load the current STARTER project to the Control Unit. A
consistency check is first made for the project; if inconsistencies are detected, then the
associated messages are output. You must resolve these inconsistencies before loading. If
no inconsistencies are detected, then the data is loaded into the work memory of the Control
Unit and then a reset is initiated.
This function can be activated as follows:
● Right-click Drive unit -> Target system -> Load to target system
● Drive unit grayed out -> "Load to target system" button
● Online/offline comparison screen form -> "Load project to target device" button
● Project to all drive units simultaneously:
"Load project to target system" button or menu Project -> Load to target system
Copy RAM to ROM
You can use this function to save volatile Control Unit data to the non-volatile memory
(memory card). This ensures that the data is still available after the 24 V Control Unit supply
has been switched off.
This function can be activated as follows:
● Extras -> Setting -> Download -> Activate "Copy from RAM to ROM"
This means that every time data is loaded to the target system by choosing "Load project
to target system", the data is stored in the non-volatile memory.
● Right-click Drive unit -> Target system -> Copy from RAM to ROM
● Drive unit grayed out -> "Copy from RAM to ROM" button
Load to PG/PC
You can use this function to load the current Control Unit project to STARTER.
This function can be activated as follows:
● Right-click Drive unit -> Target system -> Load to PG/PC
● Drive unit grayed out -> "Load to PG" button
● "ONLINE/OFFLINE comparison" screen -> "Load to PG" button
