Hello Kig and danw, Let me clear some things up. The Sipart DR19, 20, 21, 22 and are versatile and reliable controllers which have been on the market for a long time,nothing but good experiences from my side.The Sipart DR24 is even more versatile, but a complete different story! DR19 to DR22 havepredefined structure sets, which can be configuredand parametrized by so-called "structure switches (s-parameters), and online (like PID control parameters) and offline parameters(e.g. display behaviour and scaling). DR19 is the simplest version, DR22 the most advanced version with a.o.2 independent control loops. Sipart DR19, 21 and DR22 can be parametrized by Simatic PDM, as the parameter list is fixed and limited. Then the Sipart DR24: looks are almost the same as DR22, but totally different on the inside. Sipart DR24 is totally freely programmable, with a tool called Siprom DR24 (demo version available on this site, http://support.automation.siemens.com/WW/view/en/9846863) Because of the fact that it's freely programmable, the programmer is free to assign certain functions to displays and pushbuttons. Therefore the standard user manual may not be enough for users to understand the operation of the device. Mr danw, the above will convince you to talk a little more friendly about the Sipart family.... Hints for mr Kig would be: try to get your hand on the *.g24 file with which the DR24 was programmed, download the Siprom software and try to understand the way it was programmed. If you do not have the g24 file (which I can imagine in an installation like yours), order the siprom DR24 software + cable, order a SES-card (serial interface), if there's not already one in the DR24 and download the configuration to your laptop. You will get the software then in tabular form, but with some experience this can be translated to a graphic representation. In the time I was service engineer, I have done this a couple of times for my customers who lost their original software configuration files. Best Regards, SonicRanger |

hi all, to purchase the SW, cable and interface card is not a cheap solution for the most users. You could also read out all parameters from the DR24 manually. It's quite a lot of work, but it works. Use the list at the manual and send all information to the support. New Support Request: http://www.siemens.com/automation/support-request Depend on their load, they can "create" the file and give you a indication where and how to edit setpoint... on your device. |
