Dear Import-User-1 I have a doubt whether Sartrious waighing scale has a Profibus communication interface or not. Any how if the scale have Profibus communication interface the first thing you should get is GSD file (contact the manufacturer or download from thier web site) and on S7 hardware configuration go to Options-Install GSD file then locate the GSD file and install it. After you have done this you can find your hardware in the hardware lists then insert to your hardware configurations DP-Slave. Now you can assign I/O adresses and control in OB or any of your functions. (I assumed you are familiar with Simantic manager environment that is why my answer is not detailed but if you need more explanation get the GSD file for the waighing scale and compress into zip format and attach here then I can prepare sample program for you) Option -2 If Sartrious waighing scale NOT have Profibus communication interface, the solution i suggest is to use analog input modules to read load cells values. Hope helps! |

Dear PradeepGowda, The Profibus GSD file you have attached is not well defined (you can open the GSD file by notepad). The telegram message definition between keywords Module and EndModule is missing and Ext-User-Prm-Data-Def-List is also not defined. Therefore it is so difficult to know the exact I/O messages. Thus you should find the missing information. As I have visited the website of the manufacturere they have supplied the equipment with a CD containing a PDF file with description of Profibus telegram messages description plus a sample FB. Thus please attach this files and I am ready to help you. |
