Integration Procedure

Prerequisites

The integration procedure assumes that you have done the following:

Set up a TeSys island device using SoMove software according to the TeSys island – System, Installation, and Operation Guide , including the relevant fieldbus parameters
NOTE:
- For PROFINET, establish an IPv4 address for the device (which applies to both the terminal and fieldbus ports), then configure the island.
- For PROFIBUS, establish an IPv4 address for the terminal port for configuration, then set a PROFIBUS Node ID in the DTM to establish an address on the PROFIBUS network.
Installed the appropriate version of Siemens TIA Portal software and TIA Portal Openness as described in Installing the Siemens TIA Portal
Set up a project in the Siemens TIA Portal with a PLC as bus controller for the designated bus system (not covered in this document)
Imported the device description files for the TeSys island and the appropriate function block library into TIA Portal as described in Installing the Device Description Files and Integrating the Function Block Library

Example Items

The TeSys island configuration used in this example includes the following items, as shown in the figure below.

NOTE: The procedures described here refer to a project with a Siemens SIMATIC S7-1200 CPU and PROFINET IO as the bus system. The basic steps remain the same when using a SIMATIC S7-1500 CPU or PROFIBUS DP as a bus system. The notable differences in the handling of PROFIBUS DP are outlined in PROFIBUS DP and PROFINET IO Differences.
