4 Theory
4.1 SIMATIC S7-1500 automation system
The SIMATIC S7-1500 automation system is a modular controller system for the middle to upper
performance range. A comprehensive range of modules is available to optimally adapt the system
to the automation task.

SIMATIC S7-1500 is the next generation of the SIMATIC S7-300 and S7-400 automation systems
with the following new performance features.

– Increased system performance

– Integrated motion control functionality
– PROFINET IO IRT
– Integrated display for machine-level operation and diagnostics
– STEP 7 language innovations while maintaining proven functions
The S7-1500 controller consists of a power supply ①, a CPU with integrated display ② and input and
output modules for digital and analog signals ③. The modules are mounted on a mounting rail with
integrated DIN rail profile ④. If necessary, communication processors and function modules are also
used for special tasks such as stepper motor control.

④
②
③
①

The programmable logic controller (PLC) uses the S7 program to monitor and
control a machine or process. In doing so, the S7 program scans the IO
modules via input addresses (%I) and addresses their output addresses (%Q).

The system is programmed with the STEP 7 Professional V1X software.

 TIA Portal Module 002

4.1.1 Range of modules

The SIMATIC S7-1500 is a modular automation system and offers the following range of
modules:
Central processing units (CPUs) with integrated display
The CPUs have different performance capability and execute the user program. In addition, the
other modules are supplied power via the backplane bus with the integrated system power
supply.
Additional properties and functions of the CPU:
• Communication via Ethernet
• Communication via PROFIBUS/PROFINET
• HMI communication for HMI devices
• Web server
• Integrated technology functions (e.g. PID controller, motion control, etc.)
• System diagnostics
• Integrated security (e.g. know-how, copy, access, integrity protection)

System power supply modules (PS) (rated input voltages 24 V DC to 230 V AC/DC)
with connection to the backplane bus supply the configured modules with the internal supply
voltage.

37
 TIA Portal Module 002

Load current supply modules (PM) (rated input voltages 120/230 V AC)
do not have a connection to the backplane bus of the S7-1500 automation system. The load
current supply is used to supply 24 V DC to the system power supply of the CPU, the input and
output circuits of IO modules and the sensors and actuators.

IO modules

4.2.4 SIMATIC memory card

41
 TIA Portal Module 002

A SIMATIC Micro Memory Card is used as the memory module for the CPUs. This is a
preformatted memory card that is compatible with the Windows file system. It is available with
various storage capacities and can be used for the following purposes:

– Transportable data storage medium

– Program card
– Firmware update card

The MMC must be inserted to operate the CPU as the CPUs have no integrated load memory. A
commercially available SD card reader is needed to write/read the SIMATIC memory card with the
programming device or PG/PC. This allows files to be copied directly to the SIMATIC memory card
using Windows Explorer, for example.

Note: It is recommended that the SIMATIC memory card only be removed or inserted when the CPU is in
the POWER OFF state.

4.2.5 Mode switch

The mode switch allows you to set the operating mode of the CPU. The mode switch is designed
as a toggle switch with 3 switch positions.

Position Meaning Explanation

RUN RUN mode The CPU processes the user program.
STOP STOP mode The CPU is not executing the user program.
MRES Memory reset Position for CPU memory reset.

You can also use the button on the CPU operator panel of the STEP 7 Professional V1X software
in Online & Diagnostics to switch the operating mode (STOP or RUN).
The operator panel also contains an MRES button for performing a memory reset and displays
the status LEDs of the CPU.

4.2.6 Display of the CPU

The S7-1500 CPU has a front flap with a display and control keys. Control data and status data
can be displayed in various menus on the display and numerous settings can be configured. You
use the control keys to navigate through the menus.
The display of the CPU offers the following functions:
● 6 different display languages can be selected.
● Diagnostic messages are displayed in plain text.

42
 TIA Portal Module 002

● The interface settings can be changed locally.

● Password assignment for display operation is possible through the TIA Portal.

(on SIMATIC memory card)
Data work memory  Code blocks (FC, FB, OB)
Global data blocks  Data blocks (DB)
Instance data blocks  Hardware configuration
Technology objects  Technology objects

Retentive memory
Parts of:
Global data blocks
Instance data blocks
Technology objects
Bit memory, timers, counters

Additional memory areas

Bit memories, timers and counters
Temporary local data

Load memory
Load memory is non-volatile memory for code blocks, data blocks, technology objects and the
hardware configuration. When these objects are downloaded to the CPU, they are first stored in
the load memory. This memory is located on the SIMATIC memory card.
Work memory
Work memory is volatile memory that contains the code and data blocks. The work memory is
integrated into the CPU and cannot be expanded. In S7-1500 CPUs, the work memory is divided
into two areas:

 Code work memory:

– The code work memory contains runtime-relevant parts of the program code.
 Data work memory:

– The data work memory contains the runtime-relevant parts of the data blocks and
technology objects.
At the operating mode transitions from POWER ON to startup and from STOP to startup, tags of
global data blocks, instance data blocks and technology objects are initialized with their start
values. Retentive tags retain their actual values that were saved in the retentive memory.
Retentive memory
Retentive memory is non-volatile memory for saving certain data in the event of power failure.
The tags and operand areas that have been defined as retentive are saved in the retentive
memory. This data is retained beyond power-off or power failure.
All other program tags are set to their start values at the operating mode transitions from POWER
ON to startup and from STOP to startup.
The content of retentive memory is deleted by the following actions:

45
 TIA Portal Module 002

● Memory reset
● Reset to factory settings
Note: Certain tags of technology objects are also stored in the retentive memory. These
tags are not deleted by a memory reset.

4.4 STEP 7 Professional V1X (TIA Portal V1X) programming software

STEP 7 Professional V1X (TIA Portal V1X) software is the programming tool for the following
automation systems:

- SIMATIC S7-1500
- SIMATIC S7-1200
- SIMATIC S7-300
- SIMATIC S7-400
- SIMATIC WinAC

STEP 7 Professional V1X provides the following functions for plant automation:
- Configuration and parameter assignment of the hardware
- Specification of the communication
- Programming
- Testing, commissioning and servicing with operational/diagnostic functions
- Documentation
- Creation of visualizations for SIMATIC Basic Panels using the integrated WinCC Basic
software
- Visualization solutions for PCs and other panels can also be created with other WinCC
software packages
Support is provided for all functions through detailed online help.

4.4.1 Project
To implement a solution for an automation and visualization task, you create a project in the TIA
Portal. A project in the TIA Portal contains the configuration data for the configuration and
internetworking of devices as well as the programs and the configuration of the visualization.

4.4.2 Hardware configuration

The hardware configuration includes the configuration of the devices, consisting of the hardware of
the automation system, the intelligent field devices and the hardware for visualization. The
configuration of the networks specifies the communication between the various hardware
components. The individual hardware components are inserted in the hardware configuration from
catalogs.

The hardware of automation systems comprises controllers (CPUs), signal modules for input and
output signals (SMs) and communication processors, and interface modules (CP, IM). Power
supply and voltage supply modules (PS, PM) are also available to supply the modules.

46
 TIA Portal Module 002

The signal modules and intelligent field devices connect the input and output data of the process to
be automated and visualized to the automation system.

Visualization

Central structure

Distributed structure

Actuators/sensors

Figure 1: Example of hardware configuration with central and distributed structures

The hardware configuration enables the downloading of automation and visualization solutions to
the automation system and access to the connected signal modules by the controller.

4.4.3 Central and distributed automation structure

Figure 1 shows an automation structure that contains both central and distributed structures.

In central structures, the input and output signals of the process are transmitted by way of
conventional wiring to the signal modules, which are connected directly to the controller.
Conventional wiring refers to the connection of sensors and actuators using 2-wire or 4-wire
cables.

The distributed structure is the predominant structure used today. Here, the sensors and actuators
are wired conventionally only as far as the signal modules of the field devices. The signal
transmission from the field devices to the controller is implemented using an industrial
communication system.

Both classic fieldbuses such as PROFIBUS, Modbus and Foundation Fieldbus as well as Ethernet-
based communication systems such as PROFINET can be used as the industrial communication
system.

In addition, intelligent field devices in which stand-alone programs run can also be connected via
the communication system. These programs can also be created with the TIA Portal.

47
 TIA Portal Module 002

4.4.4 Planning the hardware

Before you can configure the hardware, you must plan it (hardware planning). In general, you begin
by selecting which controllers are needed and how many. Next you select the communication
modules and signal modules. The selection of signal modules is based on the number and type of
inputs and outputs needed. As the final step, a power supply that ensures that the necessary
power is supplied must be selected for each controller or field device.

The functionality required and the ambient conditions are of vital importance for planning the
hardware configuration. For example, the temperature range in the application area sometimes
limits the devices available for selection. Fail-safe operation might be another requirement, for
example.

The TIA Selection Tool (Select automation technology  TIA Selection Tool and follow the
instructions) provides you support. Note: TIA Selection Tool requires Java.

Note for online research: If more than one manual is available, you should look for the
description "Device Manual", "Product Manual" or simply "Manual" (as opposed to
"Function Manual", "List Manual", "System Manual", etc.) in order to find the device
specifications.

4.4.5 TIA Portal – Project view and portal view

The TIA Portal has two important views. When started, the TIA Portal displays the portal view by
default. This view makes getting started easier, especially for beginning users.

The portal view provides a task-oriented view of the tools for working on the project. Here, you can
quickly decide what you want to do and open the tool for the task at hand. If necessary, a change
to the project view takes place automatically for the selected task.

Figure 2 shows the portal view. At the bottom left, there is an option to switch between this view
and the project view.

Figure 2: Portal view

48
 TIA Portal Module 002

The project view, as shown in Figure 3, is used for hardware configuration, programming, creation of the
visualization and many other tasks.

By default, the project view displays the menu bar with the toolbars at the top, the project tree with all
components of a project on the left and the so-called task cards with instructions and libraries, for
example, on the right.

If an element (for example, the device configuration) is selected in the project tree, it is displayed in the
center and can be worked on there.

Figure 3: Project view

4.4.6 Basic settings for the TIA Portal

 Users can specify their own default settings for certain settings in the TIA Portal. A few
important settings are shown here.

 In the project view, select the ®"Options" menu and then ® "Settings".

49
 TIA Portal Module 002

One basic setting is the selection of the user interface language and the language for the program
display. In the curriculums to follow, "English" will be used for both settings.

 Under ® "General" in "Settings", select "User interface language ® English" and

"Mnemonic ® International".

Note: These settings can always be changed.

 When Safety CPUs are used (e.g. CPU 1516F-3 PN/DP) without the use of safety
engineering, it is recommended that automatic creation of the safety program be
deactivated before creating a project.

 In "Settings" under the ® "STEP 7 Safety" item, deactivate ® "Generate default fail-safe
program".

4.4.7 Setting the IP address on the programming device

To program SIMATIC S7-1500 from the PC, the programming device or a laptop, you need a
TCP/IP connection or an optional PROFIBUS connection.
For the PC and SIMATIC S7-1500 to communicate with each other via TCP/IP, it is important that
the IP addresses of both devices match.
First, we show you how to set the IP address of a computer with the Windows 7 operating
system.

 Locate the network icon in the taskbar at the bottom and click ® "Open Network
and Sharing Center".

50
 TIA Portal Module 002

 In the open Network and Sharing Center window, click ® "Change adapter settings".

 Select the desired ® "Local Area Connection" that you want to use to connect to the
controller and click ® "Properties".

51
 TIA Portal Module 002

 Next, select ® "Properties" for ® "Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IP)".

 You can use the following IP address, for example ® IP address: [Link] ® Subnet
mask [Link] and accept the settings (® "OK")

52
 TIA Portal Module 002

4.4.8 Setting the IP address in the CPU

The IP address of SIMATIC S7-1500 is set as follows.

 Select the Totally Integrated Automation Portal for this, which is opened here with a
double-click. (®® TIA Portal V1X)

 Select  "Online & Diagnostics" and open the "project view".

 In the project tree under  "Online access", select the network adapter that was set previously. If you
click  "Update accessible devices" here, you will see the IP address (if previously set) or the MAC
address (if IP address not yet assigned) of the connected SIMATIC S7-1500. Select  "Online &
Diagnostics" here.

53
TIA Portal Module 002

54
 TIA Portal Module 002

 Under "Functions", you now find the  "Assign IP address" item. Enter the following IP
address here (example): ® IP address: [Link] ® Subnet mask [Link].
Next, click  "Assign IP address" and this new address will be assigned to your
SIMATIC S7-1500.

Note: The IP address of the SIMATIC S7-1500 can also be set via the display on the
CPU, provided this is enabled in the hardware configuration.

 If the IP address was not successfully assigned, you will receive a message in the 
"Info" window under  "General".

4.4.9 Formatting the memory card in the CPU

 If the IP address could not be assigned, the program data on the CPU must be deleted.
This is accomplished in 2 steps:  "Format memory card" and "Reset to factory
settings".

 First, select the  "Format memory card" function and press the  "Format" button.

55
 TIA Portal Module 002

 Confirm the prompt asking if you really want to format the memory card with  "Yes".

 If necessary, stop the CPU. ( "Yes")

4.4.10 Resetting the CPU to factory settings

 Before you can reset the CPU, you must wait until the formatting in the CPU has finished.
Then you must select  "Update accessible devices" and  "Online & diagnostics" of
your CPU again. To reset the controller, select the  "Reset to factory settings" function
and click  "Reset".

56
 TIA Portal Module 002

 Confirm the prompt asking if you really want to reset the module with  "Yes".

 If necessary, stop the CPU. ( "Yes")

57
 TIA Portal Module 002

58
 TIA Portal Module 002

6 Planning
Because this is a new system, a new project must be created.

The hardware for this project is already specified by the existing hardware (here: SIMATIC
S7-1516F PN/DP). Therefore, a selection does not have to be made. Instead, the listed modules of
the Trainer Package are detected directly. The order numbers (see Task or Table 1) can be used
for checking purposes.

Module Order number Slot Address area

CPU 1516F-3 PN/DP 6ES7 516-3FN01-0AB0 1

DI 32x24VDC HF 6ES7 521-1BL00-0AB0 2 0…3

AI 8 X U/I/RTD/TC, 16BIT 6ES7 531-7KF00-0AB0 4 64…79

AQ 4 X U/I ST, 16BIT 6ES7 532-5HD00-0AB0 5 64…71
Table 1: Overview of the planned configuration

The address areas must now be configured.

The power module is not automatically detected and must be manually added.

Module Order number Slot Address area

PM 190W 120/230VAC 6EP1333-4BA00 0

Table 2: Module to be manually added

As the final step, the hardware configuration must be compiled and downloaded. Any errors
present can be detected during compilation and incorrect modules can be detected when the
controller is started (only possible when hardware is present and structured identically).

The tested project must be saved and archived.

 All accessible nodes are found and listed. If you have selected the correct CPU, the
corresponding CPU and all the connected modules will be detected when you click
"Detect".

Note: If the list does not contain your CPU, ensure that you have selected the correct network adapter
and established a connection between the laptop and CPU.

 The TIA Portal shows the complete device configuration of the selected CPU. Only the
power module is lacking. This can be placed on slot 0 of the mounting rail later.

65
 TIA Portal Module 002

Note: You can now configure the CPU there according to your specifications. Possible
settings include the PROFINET and PROFIBUS DP interfaces, startup characteristics,
cycle, password protection, communication load and many others.

7.3 Configure the Ethernet interface of the CPU 1516F-3 PN/DP

 Select the CPU with a double-click

 Under  "Properties", open the  "PROFINET-interface [X1]" menu and select the 
"Ethernet addresses" entry there.

 Add an Ethernet subnet with the  "Add new subnet" button.

 Keep the pre-assigned "IP address" and "Subnet mask".

7.4 Configure the access level for the CPU 1516F-3 PN/DP
 Switch to the  "Protection" menu and select access level  "Full access incl. fail-safe
(no protection)".

Note: The setting "Full access incl. fail-safe (no protection)" is recommended because a
safety program is not created here and thus we also do not have to assign a password.

7.6 Configure the address areas of the digital input and output
modules
 The next step is to check the address areas of the inputs and output cards and adapt
them if necessary. DI/DO should have an address area of 0…3 and AI/AO should have
an address area of 64…79 and 64…71, respectively. ( Device overview  DI
32x24VDC HF_1  I address: 0..3  DQ 32x24VDC/0.5A HF_1  Q address: 0...3 
AI 8xU/I/RTD/TC ST_1  I address: 64…79  AQ 4xU/I ST_1  Q address: 64…71)
