The user-friendly STARTER commissioning tool can be used for:
This software can be operated either as a standalone PC application, integrated in SIMATIC STEP 7 with TIA compatibility via Drive ES Basic, or it can be integrated into the SCOUT engineering system (for SIMOTION). The basic functions and handling are the same in both cases.
In STARTER, MICROMASTER 4 devices and the SIMATIC ET 200S FC and SIMATIC ET 200pro FC frequency converters are also supported in addition to the SINAMICS drives.
The project wizards can be used to create the drives within the structure of the project tree.
Beginners are supported by solution-based dialog guidance, whereby a standard graphics-based display maximizes clarity when setting the drive parameters.
First commissioning is guided by a wizard which makes all the basic settings in the drive. Therefore, getting a motor up and running is merely a question of setting a few of the drive parameters as part of the drive configuration process.
The individual settings required are made using graphics-based parameterization screens, which also precisely visualize the principle of operation of the drive.
Examples of individual settings that can be made include:
For experts, the expert list can be used to specifically and quickly access individual parameters at any time. An individual compilation of frequently used parameters can be saved in dedicated user lists.
In addition, the following functions are available for optimization purposes:

1) DCC cannot be used. STARTER can be used on these operating systems only if it does not include the DCC option.
The SINAMICS S120/SINAMICS S150 Control Units can communicate with one another via PROFIBUS or PROFINET/Ethernet, or over a serial RS232 interface, depending on the Control Unit version (DP or PN).
The PG/PC will require a PROFIBUS communications board and a connecting cable for this purpose.
If the optional CBE20 PROFINET Communication Board is available, this can be used instead to provide an Ethernet communications link between the CU320‑2 and PG/PC.
Drive Control Chart (DCC) expands the scope of device functions by means of freely available closed-loop control, calculation and logic modules and offers a means by which technological functions can be graphically configured in the SINAMICS S120 drive system. DCC is installed as a supplementary application to the STARTER commissioning tool.
Drive Control Chart expands the facility for the simplest possible configuring of technological functions both for the Motion Control System SIMOTION as well as for the SINAMICS S120 drive system. For users, this opens up a new dimension regarding the adaptability of the systems mentioned to the specific functions of their machines. DCC has no restrictions with regard to the number of usable functions; this is only limited by the performance capability of the target platform.
The user-friendly DCC editor enables easy graphics-based configuration, allows control loop structures to be clearly represented and provides a high degree of reusability of diagrams that have already been created.
The open-loop and closed-loop control functions are defined by using multi-instance-capable blocks (Drive Control Blocks (DCBs)) from a pre-defined library (DCB library) that are selected and graphically linked with one another by dragging and dropping. Test and diagnostic functions allow the program behavior to be verified and in the case of a fault, the cause identified.
The block library encompasses a large selection of closed-loop, arithmetic and logic blocks, as well as comprehensive open-loop and closed-loop control functions.
For logically combining, evaluating and acquiring binary signals, all commonly used logic functions are available for selection (AND, XOR, on/off delay, RS flipflop, counter, etc.). A wide range of arithmetic functions, such as absolute value generation, dividers and minimum/maximum evaluation are available to monitor and evaluate numerical quantities. In addition to the closed-loop drive control, axial winder functions, closed-loop PI controllers, ramp-function generators or wobble generators can be configured simply and easily.
Closed-loop control structures can be programmed with almost no restrictions in conjunction with the SIMOTION Motion Control System. These can then be combined with other program sections to form an overall program.
Drive Control Chart for SINAMICS S120 also provides a convenient basis for resolving drive-level open-loop and closed-loop control tasks directly in the converter. This further extends the possibility of adapting SINAMICS to the particular application. Local data processing in the drive supports the implementation of modular machine concepts and results in an increase in the overall machine performance.
Minimum hardware and software requirements
See the SCOUT or STARTER engineering software, since DCC is installed in addition to these programs.
DCC comprises the graphical configuring tool (DCC Editor) and the block library (DCB Library).
DCC is installed in addition to the SCOUT or STARTER engineering software.
The necessary engineering license for each PC (floating) for DCC is acquired at the same time the order is placed; additional runtime licenses are not required.
DCC can be ordered in two versions: The version for SIMOTION and SINAMICS applications, or the version for SINAMICS applications only.

Depending on the version of the Control Unit, the Control Unit (CU) of the drive unit can communicate with the programming device (PG) or PC via a serial interface, PROFIBUS, or Ethernet/PROFINET. The following accessories are available for the particular drive system as listed in the following table.
