PLC

Summary

Technical reference for PLC-related configuration, communication, and integration in TIA Portal environments. Includes drive setup, topology, safety, and third-party system interfaces.

First Steps in TIA Portal

- Project structure and naming conventions. - Hardware configuration (CPU, racks, distributed I/O). - Network configuration (PROFINET, IP assignments, topology). - Basic program blocks (OB1, Cyclic OBs, FBs, FCs, DBs). - HMI connection basics.

Drive Configuration

G120

- Parameterization in TIA Portal. - p1082 / ramp times / control mode. - Telegram selection (e.g., 1, 20, 21). - Start/stop and setpoint configuration. - Common issues (e.g., control word mismatches).

S210

- Integration with TIA Portal. - Telegram 9 / torque control. - Safety functions and diagnostics. - Startup Wizard and axis configuration.

S120

- Starter / TIA Portal integration. - CU320 and DriveCliQ topology. - Axis grouping and positioning modes. - Telegram structures and commissioning notes.

Topology

- Recommended network structure (star vs line). - Device naming, IP ranges, PROFINET device names. - PN/PN couplers and line segmentation. - Integration of external subsystems.

Communication Protocols

- PROFINET (RT, IRT). - PROFIsafe – device configuration, F-addressing. - EtherNet/IP (when applicable). - Modbus TCP (drives, sensors, gateways). - OPC UA (CPU 1518 and higher). - TCP/UDP communi
