Connecting 8.2 Additional rules and regulations for operation WARNING Even when a fault occurs, the permissible potential difference between the supply of the interface module (bus voltage) and the load voltage must not be exceeded. An external direct electrical connection is one way to meet this requirement. This also prevents potential differences from causing voltage additions at the individual voltage sources, which could cause the fault voltage U to be exceeded.
Page 124 Connecting 8.2 Additional rules and regulations for operation Additional sensor requirements General rule: A single-channel sensor is sufficient to achieve SIL3/Cat.3/PLd. However, to achieve SIL3/Cat.3/PLd with a single-channel sensor, the sensor itself must be SIL3/Cat.3/PLd- capable; otherwise, the sensor must be connected via two channels to achieve this safety level.

Consistency of the process image When the process image is updated, the SIMATIC Drive Controller accesses the data of each submodule as consistent data. This behavior is identical to the modular SIMATIC S7-1500 CPUs. The maximum data width that is accessed as consistent data for each submodule depends on the IO system.

Page 367: Glossary
Glossary Accessible devices Accessible devices are all devices connected to an interface of the programming device / PC that are turned on. Automatic speed control, for example S120 Automatic speed control covers all elements and components for current and speed control of an electric drive.
Page 368 Glossary Bus cable connector Physical connection between the bus node and the bus cable. Code block In SIMATIC S7, a code block is a block that contains a section of the STEP 7 user program. (in contrast to a data block, which contains only data) Configuration Systematic arrangement of the individual modules (configuration).
Page 369 Glossary Cross-PLC synchronous operation This functionality allows you to create a master value source and a synchronous axis on different controllers. Cycle control point The cycle control point marks the end of a cycle and the start of the next cycle. The cycle time statistics and monitoring of the configured maximum cycle time start at the cycle control point.
Page 370 Glossary Diagnostics Monitoring functions for the detection, localization, classification, display, and further evaluation of errors, faults, and alarms. They run automatically while the system is in operation. This increases the availability of systems by reducing commissioning times and downtimes. Diagnostics interrupt You can find relevant information in the entry "Interrupt, diagnostics".
Page 371 Glossary DRIVE-CLiQ Abbreviation for Drive Component Link with IQ. This is a SINAMICS drive technology communication system for connecting the various drive components such as Control Unit, Line Modules, Motor Modules, motors and speed/positioning encoders. In terms of hardware, DRIVE-CLiQ is based on the Industrial Ethernet standard with twisted-pair lines. In addition to the transmit and receive signals, the 24 V voltage supply is also provided via the DRIVE-CLiQ cable.
Page 372 Glossary Functional ground The functional ground is a low-impedance current path between electric circuits and ground. It is not intended as a protective measure but rather, for example, for improvement of interference immunity. Ground Conductive ground whose electrical potential can be set to zero at any point. All interconnected, inactive parts of a piece of equipment that cannot accept any dangerous contact voltage, even in the event of a fault.
Page 373 Glossary Instance data block Each call of a function block in the STEP 7 user program is assigned a data block, which is automatically generated. Values of the input, output and in/out parameters, as well as local block data, are stored in the instance data block. Interrupt The operating system of the CPU distinguishes between various priority classes that control the execution of the user program.
Page 374 The MAC address is generally shown on the front of the device. Example: 08-00-06-6B-80-C0 Motion control Siemens AG product family for drives that control motion. Covers all functions and components for coordination in terms of position and time for machine components in processing machinery.
Page 375 Glossary Motor Module Converter component (inverter) that provides power for one or two connected motors. The Network Time Protocol (NTP) is a standard for synchronizing clocks in automation systems via Industrial Ethernet. NTP uses the UDP connectionless network protocol. Onboard I/O The digital onboard I/O of the SIMATIC Drive Controller is designed for connecting sensors and actuators.
Page 376 Glossary Parameters, static In contrast to dynamic parameters, you cannot change static parameters of modules with the user program but only by configuring in STEP 7, e.g. input delay of a digital input module. PELV Protective Extra Low Voltage = grounded extra low voltage with safe isolation PLCopen With these standardized instructions, you can use OPC UA client functions executed in an S7- 1500 CPU in your user program.

SIMATIC Safety Integrated Coordinated product line, for example safety-related low-voltage switchgears and sensors, failsafe PLC, CNC controllers and variable-speed drives, which can be used in automation and drive technology to achieve the required plant security.
Page 379 Glossary Switch PROFIBUS is a linear network. The communication nodes are linked by means of a passive cable - the bus. By contrast, Industrial Ethernet consists of point-to-point connections: Each communication node is directly connected to exactly one communication node. If a communication node is linked to several communication nodes, this communication node is connected to the port of an active network component - the switch.
Page 380 Glossary Time-delay interrupt You can find relevant information in the entry "Interrupt, delay". Time-of-day interrupt You can find relevant information in the entry "Interrupt, time". Timer Timers are components of the system memory of the CPU. The operating system automatically updates the content of the "timer cells" asynchronously to the user program. STEP 7 instructions define the precise function of the timer cell (for example on-delay) and trigger its execution.
