Legal information Legal information Warning notice system This manual contains notices you have to observe in order to ensure your personal safety, as well as to prevent damage to property. The notices referring to your personal safety are highlighted in the manual by a safety alert symbol, notices referring only to property damage have no safety alert symbol. These notices shown below are graded according to the degree of danger. DANGER indicates that death or severe personal injury will result if proper precautions are not taken. WARNING indicates that death or severe personal injury may result if proper precautions are not taken. CAUTION with a safety alert symbol, indicates that minor personal injury can result if proper precautions are not taken. CAUTION without a safety alert symbol, indicates that property damage can result if proper precautions are not taken. NOTICE indicates that an unintended result or situation can occur if the relevant information is not taken into account. If more than one degree of danger is present, the warning notice representing the highest degree of danger will be used. A notice warning of injury to persons with a safety alert symbol may also include a warning relating to property damage. Qualified Personnel The product/system described in this documentation may be operated only by personnel qualified for the specific task in accordance with the relevant documentation, in particular its warning notices and safety instructions. Qualified personnel are those who, based on their training and experience, are capable of identifying risks and avoiding potential hazards when working with these products/systems.

Preparation Requirements You have an S7-300 station consisting of a power supply module and a CPU 313C or 314C. STEP 7 as of V5.5 is correctly installed on your PG. The table below shows the STEP 7 version you need for each CPU. CPU STEP 7 version 313C STEP 7 as of V5.5 + SP1 or STEP 7 as of V5.3 + SP2 with HSP 203 313C-2 PtP STEP 7 as of V5.5 + SP1 or STEP 7 as of V5.3 + SP2 with HSP 204 313C-2 DP STEP 7 as of V5.5 + SP1 or STEP 7 as of V5.3 + SP2 with HSP 203 314C-2 PtP STEP 7 as of V5.5 + SP1 or STEP 7 as of V5.3 + SP2 with HSP 204 314C-2 DP STEP 7 as of V5.5 + SP1 or STEP 7 as of V5.3 + SP2 with HSP 203 314C-2 PN/DP STEP 7 as of V5.5 with HSP 191 You have downloaded the sample projects from the Internet or have the CD of sample projects included with the Technological Functions operating instructions. You have set up a project for the S7-300 station. The PG is connected to the CPU. The CPU is correctly connected to a power supply. I/O wiring is not required for this sample. WARNING Operation of an S7-300 as part of plants or systems is subject to special rules and regulations, which depend on its field of application. Please make sure that you adhere to the applicable safety and accident prevention regulations, for example IEC 204 (emergency stop systems). You risk severe injury, or damage to machines and equipment if you ignore these regulations. Ensure the S7-300 is completely disconnected before wiring! You can come into contact with live wires if the PS 307 power supply module is turned on or the PS power supply cable is connected to the main power supply. 8 Getting Started, 08/2011, A5E00105534-03

Learning units 3.3 3. Step: Setting parameters 3.3 3. Step: Setting parameters Procedure 1. Start the parameter assignment interface with SIMATIC/STEP7/PID Control Parameter Assignment. The input dialog "PID Control" is displayed. 2. In PID control, open your project with "File > Open". Select instance DB 101 for SFB 41. Acknowledge the dialog with "OK". You are returned to the parameter assignment screen form. The configured parameters are displayed. Changes to this sample program are not required. 3. Close the parameter assignment screen form with "File > Close". The parameter assignment screen form is closed. 4. In SIMATIC Manager, select "SIMATIC 300 Station > CPU 3xx > S7 Program > Blocks". All blocks of the S7 program are displayed. 5. Download all of the S7 blocks it contains to your CPU via "PLC > Download" (CPU in STOP mode). The program and configuration are downloaded from the PG to the CPU. 3.4 4. Step: Trial run Procedure 1. In the "Blocks" directory, double-click on the variable table "VAT1" in your project. The variable table for monitoring and modifying is displayed. 2. Go online with "PLC > Connect to > Configured CPU". At the bottom right, you will see that the CPU is set to "STOP" mode. 3. Activate monitoring with "Variable > Monitor". The current values of the addresses are displayed in the "Status Value" column. 4. Switch the CPU to RUN. At the bottom right, you will see that the CPU is set to "RUN" mode. The controller is started. 5. Modify the setpoint "SP_INT". You can monitor the output value "OUTV" that is proportional to the setpoint "SP_INT". 6. Call the STEP 7 tool PID Control (see step 3). Select instance DB 101 and click "Online" mode. In the "Test" menu, select and start the "Curve plotter" function. You can view the graphic profile of some of the control variables (actual value, setpoint, control offset, etc.).
