Inserting a DP Master System

CP 5613 as DP Master

In the STEP 7 project, a SIMATIC PC station was created as an image of the local
PC. This PC station already includes the OPC server as the basic component for
productive communication and the CP 5613.

You require a DP master system so that you can assign DP slaves. For the DP
mode, a DP master system must therefore be added to the CP 5613:

Activity

Select the entry for the CP 5613 and right-click to open the context-sensitive menu for this
component.

Select the “Add Master System” menu command.

Result: The DP master system is inserted.
