A high-quality programmable control or drive system can be used to maximum effect only if the user is aware of the performance of the products used as a result of intensive training and good technical documentation.
This is becoming more important due to the shorter innovation cycles of modern automation products and the convergence of electronics and mechanical engineering.
Comprehensive documentation is available for SIMOTION and the SINAMICS S120 drive system, including the Operating Manual, Programming Manual or Configuration Manual, as well as the Commissioning Manual.
Information is available in the following formats:

Information and documentation relating to SIMOTION are available in the form of:
Explanations of manuals:
- Manual/Configuration Manual
containing all necessary information about the intended use of the components of a system, e.g. technical data, interfaces, dimension drawings, characteristics and possible applications.
Phases of use: Cabinet configuration/setup, circuit diagram configuration/drawing. - Commissioning Manual
containing all information relevant to commissioning after installation and wiring. It also contains all safety and warning notices relevant to commissioning in addition to overview drawings.
Phases of use: Commissioning of components that have already been connected, configuration of system functions. - List Manual
containing all parameters, function charts, and faults/warnings for the product/system as well as their meanings and setting options. It contains parameter data and fault/warning descriptions with functional correlations.
Phases of use: Commissioning of components that have already been connected, configuration of system functions, fault cause/diagnosis. - Getting Started
providing information about getting started for the first-time user as well as references to additional information. It contains information about the basic steps to be taken during commissioning. The information in the other documentation should be carefully observed for all of the other work required.
Phases of use: Commissioning of components that have already been connected. - Function Manual Drive Functions
containing all the relevant information about individual drive functions: Description, commissioning and integration in the drive system.
Phases of use: Commissioning of components that have already been connected, configuration of system functions.
