3.2. STEP7 PROFINET IO-Devicesetting
The following is an example of the configuration method of connecting PROFINET IO-Device of the Hi5 robot controller using STEP 7.
(1) Run 『HW Config』 of STEP 7.
(2) In the 『Option』 menu list, click 『Install GSD File』.
(3) In the 『Install GSD Files』dialog box, select 『from the directory』 and click the 『Browse』 button.
(4) Select the PROFINET IO-Device GSDML file of Hi5 controller and click the 『install』 button. When the warning message appears, confirm and click the 『Yes』 button.
(5) When the GSDML file of Hi5 controller has been installed, click 『OK』, and click the 『Close』 button of 『Install GSD Files』.
(6) In 『PROFINET IO*Additional Field Devices*General*Robot Controller』 of the 『Catalog』 window under 『HW Config』, check for the Hi5 BD525 item.
(7) Drag and drop Hi5 BD525 to the 『PROFINET IO』 of 『HW Config』.
(8) In the BD525 device of the 『Catalog』 window, expand the 『Input Modules』 folder and the 『Output Modules』 folder.
(9) Click the Hi5 BD525 icon of the PROFINET IO bus. Drag 120 bytes input to slot 1 and drag 120 bytes output to slot 2 to match the I/O size configured at the Hi5 controller.
Reference)
The default size of the input data of the Hi5 controller is 120 bytes. If you have modified configuration of the I/O size of the Hi5 controller, you have to the drag input data size, which matches the modified I/O size, to the pertaining slot.
When input data size is 1~9, 10 bytes, 20 bytes, 30 bytes, 40 bytes, 50 bytes, 60 bytes, 70 bytes, 80 bytes, 90 bytes, 100 bytes, 110 bytes, or 120 bytes, the input module will use slot 1. Otherwise, two slots (slot 1 and slot 2) will be used as follows, and the output module will use slots from slot 3.
l slot 1 = input data size / 10
l slot 2 = input data size % 10
When output data size is 1~9, 10 bytes, 20 bytes, 30 bytes, 40 bytes, 50 bytes, 60 bytes, 70 bytes, 80 bytes, 90 bytes, 100 bytes, 110 bytes, or 120 bytes, the output module will use only one slot. Otherwise, two slots will be used as follows. (n: starting number of output module slot).
l slot n = output data size / 10
l slot n+1 = output data size % 10
For example, if the input data size is 119 bytes, and the output data size is 32 bytes, the module will be configured as follows:
l slot 1 = 110 Bytes input
l slot 2 = 9 Bytes input
l slot 3 = 30 Bytes output
l slot 4 = 2 Bytes output
(10) Double click the Hi5 BD525 icon of the PROFINET IO bus to open the 『Object Property』 box. In the 『Device name』 column, input the device name that was configured at the Hi5 controller.
(11) Check the 『Assign IP address via IO controller』 item in the 『Object Property』 box of Hi5 BD525 and click the 『OK』 button.
(12) Click 『Save and Compile』 in the 『Station』 menu.
(13) Click 『Download』 in the 『PLC』 menu.
