Asi Hardware config

Hello guys

i want to create configuration in tia 13 for  siemens asi master 6GK1 411-2AB20.

Can you tell me how to insert range for nodes?? As i understand this asi has 2 channels.Both with nodes 1a-31a and 1b 31b.

What i want to do? I have to reserve a physical adresses for sensors and actuators  for each node so i need to assign this adresses to nodes but all options are not active when i try to do this.

I have even added a universal node and cant set anything. I will use pepper fuchs nodes.

In my last project i used bilh wiedeman asi master and for this i just needed to set range for both channels. And assignment for nodes was added automaticly. Wiedeman supported step 7 with gsd but this is tia and siemens so i just drug and drop asi master and cant add channels and so on.

Thanks for help

Hello Simon;

The information on configuration of the IE/As-interface link in the basic manual discusses Step 7 v5.x as a programming software:

Manual SIMATIC NET IE/AS-INTERFACE LINK PN IO

So here is further information treating the same issue with TIA Portal:

How do you configure gateways on a SIMATIC S7-1500 controller?

• Configuration of gateways with S7-1500 CPUs up to and including V13

With the AS-i Links it is possible either to incorporate the devices through a GSD file... (Note: the GSDML file is available in a link of the same FAQ, and shows you can only reserve a 32-byte section of addresses for the gateway).
