I need to add an AC drive (SINAMICS G120 CONTROL UNIT CU250S-2 PN) to my TIA project. I have the TIA portal installed on two PG's and on one of them I have the option of drives under "Add a device" but on the other (which is my main PG) drives is not an option. Why am I missing the option of adding drives on my main PG and how do I get this option? Attachment ED1 programmering c.zip (480 Downloads)

In SINAMICS Startdrive V15 or higher SINAMICS G120, G120C, G120D, G120P und G110M as well as SINAMICS drives based on the CU310-2 or the CU320-2 are supported. Check PDF in this FAQ: Which hardware and functions of SINAMICS G130, G150, S120, S150 and SINAMICS MV are supported by SINAMICS Startdrive V15, V15.1 and V16? Regards, Towome

I am attaching a screenshot from the PG I know it IS installed on. Where can I see that it is installed? Wizard Hello, Have you installed Startdrive?
