Function modules
For stand-alone drive solutions, the additively activatable function module EPos can be called up on the SINAMICS S120 Control Units for the absolute/relative positioning of linear and rotary axes (Modulo) with motor encoders (indirect measuring system) or machine encoders (direct measuring system). The basic positioner can be used to resolve basic motion control tasks without additional external technological outlay from the drive itself.
Integrated safety functions
The Control Units support drive-autonomous Safety Integrated Basic functions and also licensed Safety Integrated Extended functions.
CompactFlash Card
The functions of the SINAMICS S120 drives are stored on a CompactFlash Card. This card contains the firmware and parameter settings for all drives in the form of a project. The CompactFlash Card can also hold additional projects, which means that the correct project can be accessed immediately when series machines of different types are commissioned. When the Control Unit has booted, the data on the CompactFlash Card are read and loaded to the work memory.
The firmware is organized in objects. Drive objects are used to implement open-loop and closed-loop control functions for Line Modules, Motor Modules, Power Modules and other system components connected by DRIVE-CLiQ.
Diagnostics optimally supported by trace function
The time characteristics of input and output variables associated with drive objects can be measured by the integrated trace function and displayed using the STARTER commissioning tool or on the SINUMERIK. Up to 4 signals can be recorded simultaneously. Recording can be triggered as a function of freely selectable boundary conditions, e.g. the value of an input or output variable.
