2. INITIALIZATION
2.1. Communication Connection
The valve segment communicate with the interface module IM152 via the backplane bus system of the ET
200iSP. This exchanges not only input / output data but also parameter, configuration and diagnostic data with a
central master (controller) via PROFIBUS-DP-is.
Many PROFIBUS masters (controllers) require a program that describes the hardware configuration (e. g.
Siemens Step7 for the S7 controllers). These programs require the equipment master data file (GSD file) that
contains the equipment-specific information.
For the use of acyclic services, an EDD file is also required. Programs such as the Siemens PDM permit access
to extensive additional information (I&M data, switching cycle counters, etc.).
A current version of both of these files is available on CD or on the internet.
Because these files for communicability are taken care of by Siemens, when you look on the Bürkert homepage
you will not find the information directly. Instead, you will find a link leading you to the appropriate current
versions.
Siemens.Step7.&.Siemens.PCS7:
If Siemens Step7 is used, an alternative to the method stated above is the option of linking AirLINE Ex by means
of a Hardware Support Package (“HSP”) or, analogously, by means of a Software Update Package (“SUP”) in
Siemens PCS7.
This method has the following advantages:
The acyclic functions of AirLINE Ex can be parameterized directly in HW config.
Extended functions of the ET200iSP can be used (e.g. redundancy).
Hardware-specific diagnoses can be displayed in PCS7.
You can download “HSP” and “SUP” from the Bürkert homepage (under Type 8650 software) or receive them
directly from Bürkert.
Supply segments are electrically passive (logically transparent) and are not taken into consideration in the
configuration tools.
2.2. Configuration of the Hardware Using Siemens
Step7
A software program such as Step 7 from Siemens is necessary for the configuration of the bus master.
Use the program Step7 from Siemens in version 5.3 or higher to ensure hardware compatibility.
