Fundamental safety instructions 2 2.1 General safety instructions
DANGER
Danger to life due to live parts and other energy sources
Death or serious injury can result when live parts are touched. Only work on electrical devices when you are qualified for this job. Always observe the country-specific safety rules.
Generally, six steps apply when establishing safety: 1. Prepare for shutdown and notify all those who will be affected by the procedure. 2. Disconnect the machine from the supply.
Switch off the machine. Wait until the discharge time specified on the warning labels has elapsed. Check that it really is in a no-voltage condition, from phase conductor to phase
conductor and phase conductor to protective conductor. Check whether the existing auxiliary supply circuits are de-energized. Ensure that the motors cannot move.
3. Identify all other dangerous energy sources, e.g. compressed air, hydraulic systems, or water.
4. Isolate or neutralize all hazardous energy sources by closing switches, grounding or short-circuiting or closing valves, for example.
5. Secure the energy sources against switching on again. 6. Ensure that the correct machine is completely interlocked.
After you have completed the work, restore the operational readiness in the inverse sequence.
WARNING
Danger to life from hazardous voltage when connecting an unsuitable power supply
Touching live components can result in death or severe injury. Only use power supplies that provide SELV (Safety Extra Low Voltage) or PELV
(Protective Extra Low Voltage) output voltages for all connections and terminals of the electronics modules.
Fundamental safety instructions 2.1 General safety instructions
Overview of service and diagnostics options 10 Product Information, 04/2014
WARNING
Danger to life from touching live parts on damaged devices
Improper handling of devices can result in damage.
For damaged devices, hazardous voltages can be present at the enclosure or at exposed components; if touched, this can result in death or severe injury. Observe the limit values specified in the technical specifications during transport,
storage, and operation. Do not use damaged devices.
WARNING
Danger to life through electric shock due to unconnected cable shields
Hazardous touch voltages can occur through capacitive cross-coupling due to unconnected cable shields. As a minimum, connect cable shields and the cores of power cables that are not used
(e.g. brake cores) at one end at the grounded housing potential.
WARNING
Danger to life due to electric shock when not grounded
For missing or incorrectly implemented protective conductor connection for devices with protection class I, high voltages can be present at open, exposed parts, which when touched, can result in death or severe injury. Ground the device in compliance with the applicable regulations.
WARNING
Danger to life due to fire spreading if housing is inadequate
Fire and smoke development can cause severe personal injury or material damage. Install devices without a protective housing in a metal control cabinet (or protect the
device by another equivalent measure) in such a way that contact with fire inside and outside the device is prevented.
Ensure that smoke can only escape via controlled and monitored paths.

Switch off wireless devices or mobile phones in the immediate vicinity of the
components.
WARNING
Danger to life due to fire if overheating occurs because of insufficient ventilation clearances
Inadequate ventilation clearances can cause overheating of components followed by fire and smoke development. This can cause death or serious injury. This can also result in increased downtime and reduced service life for devices/systems. Ensure compliance with the specified minimum clearance as ventilation clearance for
the respective component.
WARNING
Danger of an accident occurring due to missing or illegible warning labels
Missing or illegible warning labels can result in accidents involving death or serious injury. Check that the warning labels are complete based on the documentation. Attach any missing warning labels to the components, in the national language if
necessary. Replace illegible warning labels.
WARNING
Danger to life when safety functions are inactive
Safety functions that are inactive or that have not been adjusted accordingly can cause operational faults on machines that could lead to serious injury or death. Observe the information in the appropriate product documentation before
commissioning. Carry out a safety inspection for functions relevant to safety on the entire system,
including all safety-related components. Ensure that the safety functions used in your drives and automation tasks are adjusted
and activated through appropriate parameterizing. Perform a function test. Only put your plant into live operation once you have guaranteed that the functions
relevant to safety are running correctly.

When assessing the machine's risk in accordance with the respective local regulations (e.g. EC Machinery Directive), the machine manufacturer must take into account the following residual risks emanating from the controller and drive components of a drive system:
Fundamental safety instructions 2.5 Residual risks of power drive systems
Overview of service and diagnostics options Product Information, 04/2014 15
1. Unintentional movements of driven machine components during commissioning, operation, maintenance, and repairs caused by, for example:
Hardware faults and/or software errors in sensors, controllers, actuators, and connection systems
Response times of the controller and drive
Operating and/or ambient conditions outside of the specification
Condensation / conductive contamination
Parameterization, programming, cabling, and installation errors
Use of radio devices/cellular phones in the immediate vicinity of the controller
External influences / damage
2. In the event of a fault, exceptionally high temperatures, including an open fire, as well as emissions of light, noise, particles, gases, etc. can occur inside and outside the inverter, for example:
Component malfunctions
Software errors
Operating and/or ambient conditions outside of the specification
External influences / damage
Inverters of the Open Type / IP20 degree of protection must be installed in a metal control cabinet (or protected by another equivalent measure) such that the contact with fire inside and outside the inverter is not possible.
3. Hazardous touch voltages caused by, for example:
Component malfunctions
Influence of electrostatic charging
Induction of voltages in moving motors
Operating and/or ambient conditions outside of the specification
Condensation / conductive contamination
External influences / damage
4. Electrical, magnetic and electromagnetic fields generated in operation that can pose a risk to people with a pacemaker, implants or metal replacement joints, etc. if they are too close.
5. Release of environmental pollutants or emissions as a result of improper operation of the system and/or failure to dispose of components safely and correctly.
Note
The components must be protected against conductive contamination (e.g. by installing them in a control cabinet with degree of protection IP54 according to IEC 60529 or NEMA 12).

Service selector switch/button The service selector switch enables diagnostic data backed up in a SIMOTION device in the event of an error/fault to be stored offline without SIMOTION SCOUT. For details, see Backing up diagnostic data and non-volatile data (Page 53).
Part I: Service on the device 4.1 Overview
Overview of service and diagnostics options Product Information, 04/2014 25
SIMOTION D modules have a service selector switch that is important for service and diagnostic functions. In "normal" operation, this switch must remain in the 0 position. See also Backing up during operation using a service selector switch (Page 107) and Backing up during ramp-up using a service selector switch or INI file (Page 110).
With SIMOTION P320-3/P350-3, virtual versions of the service selector and mode switches and the LEDs appear in the SIMOTION P state application. See also Backing up during operation using a service selector switch (Page 107) and Backing up during ramp-up using a service selector switch or INI file (Page 110).
SIMOTION C does not provide any switches on the device for diagnostic functions. Errors/faults and states are displayed by means of LEDs.
Part II (Page 66) contains a detailed description of how diagnostic data and non-volatile data should be handled.
Mode switch You can use the mode switch to set the operating mode on the device. With SIMOTION P, the function of this switch is implemented by means of the SIMOTION P state application. It is also possible to change the operating mode via SIMOTION SCOUT.
Operating modes, based on the example of SIMOTION D4x5-2:
RUN
SIMOTION D4x5-2 is processing the user program. The technology packages are active in this state. They can execute commands from the user program.
STOPU
SIMOTION D4x5-2 is not processing a user program. The technology packages are active. Test and commissioning functions can be executed.
The I/O modules are in a safe state. This means, for example, that digital outputs are "LOW" and analog outputs are de-energized (no current, no voltage).
STOP
SIMOTION D4x5-2 is not processing a user program. It is possible to load an entire user program. All system services (communication, ...) are active. The I/O modules are in a safe state. This means, for example, that digital outputs are "LOW" and analog outputs are de-energized (no current, no voltage). The technology packages are not active.
MRES
Switch position for overall reset of the module.
Note
Please take note of the information in the Manuals for the switches.

Overview of service and diagnostics options Product Information, 04/2014 49
In principle, the following message classes are available:
User error messages
These are usually messages from the process, containing information on how to resolve the error. Irrespective of the HMI system, they are transmitted by a method called bit messaging. The user him/herself assigns the texts to the bit numbers. The user can choose to acknowledge the messages via the HMI system or via the application. The message texts and their compilation data are located in the HMI.
Technological alarms and drive messages, technical state alarms (info, warning), and fault messages (alarms) for devices/functions
These are messages relating to malfuncions or faults, for example, in components such as CPUs or drives. The user can use the ALARM_S procedure from SIMATIC for these messages.
ALARM_S is a message number procedure. The message numbers are automatically assigned during configuration in SIMOTION SCOUT. Message texts are uniquely assigned according to their name. The messages are called and acknowledged during runtime by means of appropriate system commands. The message texts and their compilation data are located in the SIMOTION SCOUT project.
System messages (e.g. diagnostic buffer)
These messages cannot be displayed directly in the WinCC flexible message window.
If you wish to display the messages, you need to send them individually via the ALARM_S message procedure or read them out using the SIMOTION IT web server or the SCOUT engineering tool.
Warning and error messages relating to technology objects are usually output on the HMI and can be acknowledged by the operator.
Examples of Siemens HMI systems:
Operator panels
WinCC flexible
WinCC
Note
Diagnostic buffer entries can also be displayed in a web browser via Ethernet (a PC-based method); see Part II: Service without SCOUT Engineering System (PC-based, SIMOTION IT) (Page 59).
WinCC flexible The discrete message procedure can be used to display messages stored on the device (even if these are in more than one language), e.g. information on machine states.
Part I: Service on the device 4.5 HMI
Overview of service and diagnostics options 50 Product Information, 04/2014
Additionally, S7-compliant message procedures can be used with Alarm_S messages (e.g. information on system errors).
Alarm_S messages are also available in SIMOTION. These messages are configured using the "Message configuration" editor in SIMOTION SCOUT. Alarm_S messages from SIMOTION are processed in WinCC flexible, in the same way as Alarm_S messages from STEP 7.
Special settings need to be made in WinCC flexible and the SIMOTION project in order to use this procedure.

Part I: Service on the device 4.6 Backing up diagnostic data and non-volatile data
Overview of service and diagnostics options Product Information, 04/2014 53
4.6 Backing up diagnostic data and non-volatile data Following a fault on a SIMOTION device, diagnostic data (e.g. diagnostics buffer content, up-to-date content of websites, etc.) can provide important information on the cause of the fault. With V4.1 SP2 and higher, the user has the option of backing up this data using a simple operation (e.g. a switch position). The data is stored on the CompactFlash Card/MMC in the case of SIMOTION D/C and on the hard disk in the case of SIMOTION P.
The process of backing up and restoring diagnostic data differs according to which SIMOTION platform is being used (C/P/D). SIMOTION D is the only SIMOTION device to feature both a service selector switch and a DIAG button.
This subject is covered in detail for all platforms in Part II, Diagnostic data and non-volatile data (retain data) (Page 66).
4.7 Updating devices using the Device Update tool In SIMOTION SCOUT, the Device Update tool can be used to create update data on the basis of one or more SIMOTION projects (menu Project > Start Device Update tool).
The update data created in this way can be uploaded to the SIMOTION device using the CF card/MMC, for example, or also using a USB stick in the case of SIMOTION D4x5-2/D4x5. An Engineering System is not required to do this. You can also update SIMOTION devices via the SIMOTION IT web server Backing up, updating, and restoring device data (Page 73).
License keys are either retained or may need to be relicensed in the case of function extensions.
Updating does not only mean updating to a higher firmware version, but also involves a project update (for example).
The following update data can be selected and created:
SIMOTION project (without technology packages)
Technology packages
Archive (ZIP file containing SIMOTION SCOUT project)

Firmware
The update data contains all the information required for updating or restoring the data on a SIMOTION device.
Note
An up-to-date Firmware Support Package (FWSP) needs to be installed in order to update firmware (V4.1 SP2 and higher). The FWSP is provided with the SIMOTION SCOUT DVD2 under Add-ons and can also be obtained via the Internet at SIMOTION Firmware Support Package (http://support.automation.siemens.com/WW/view/eng/33119786).
Restoring refers to the process of reinstating the configuration that was backed up in the SIMOTION device when updating was last performed. If an attempt to update a SIMOTION device fails, for example, the device can be restored to the previous configuration. Restoring

is performed via the SIMOTION IT web server and, in the case of SIMOTION D, optionally via the service selector switch.
Saving update data When creating update data using the Device Update tool, you can select the following:
Update medium (selection dependent on SIMOTION device)
USB stick
CF/MMC card
SIMOTION IT file
File system (update archive)
If you select the file system option, an update archive containing the upd_tool.bat batch file (amongst other things) will be created. By executing the upd_tool.bat file, you have the option of installing an update medium on a PC at a later date or creating a SIMOTION IT file. A SIMOTION SCOUT installation is not required on the PC for this purpose.
Transferring update data to the SIMOTION device The starting point for this is the update media to which the the update data has already been written or a SIMOTION IT file. An update medium (USB stick or CF/MMC card) is either inserted into the SIMOTION device to be updated, or the update data is transferred to the SIMOTION device via a communication connection (SIMOTION IT).
The update process is triggered by restarting or switching on the SIMOTION device to be updated. Once the update data have been transferred to the memory card in the device for the first time, the data are backed up in the SIMOTION device. (This applies to the USB memory stick and the SIMOTION IT Web server.) The update data is activated as the current configuration after the SIMOTION device has been restarted.
Behavior of the retain data during updating After the update data has been transferred to the SIMOTION device, the device is restarted and the update data is applied.
During start-up, the non-volatile data that is saved in the SIMOTION device are checked to see if they match the current configuration.
For additional information, please refer to the chapter titled Behavior of the retain data during updating in the Updating SIMOTION Devices Operating Instructions.

4.8 Licensing/License key
4.8.1 Overview Depending on the type and number of RT components used in the project, licenses must be acquired as part of the licensing procedure for SIMOTION. The licenses required for a SIMOTION device are assigned to a hardware component. With SIMOTION C and D they are assigned to the memory cards, and with SIMOTION P to the Communication Board. One or more license keys are generated when the licenses are assigned to the hardware. The license key(s) are saved on the storage medium of the SIMOTION device or in file format during the licensing process.
When replacing the memory card or Communication Board (in the case of P350) or modifying the RT components (e.g. a new technology object), the license key(s) must be redetermined and stored on the virtual memory card.

4.8.2 Checking and amending licensing information If the system is under-licensed, the SF LED will flash as a warning and an entry will be made in the diagnostics buffer. You can resolve this by licensing the system correctly.
A wizard for the licensing procedure is available in SIMOTION SCOUT. To open the wizard, select the device in the project navigator followed by Edit > Licenses.
Note
Before performing licensing, the configuration process should be completed. Once assigned to a hardware component, a license can no longer be used for any purpose other than that for which it has been issued.
Note
The chapter titled "Licensing" in the SIMOTION SCOUT Configuration Manual contains a detailed description of licensing.
You can also find information on licensing under FAQs > Updating > Licensing SIMOTION runtime functions in SIMOTION Utilities & Applications, which is part of the scope of delivery of SIMOTION SCOUT.

4.8.3 Remedial measures in the event of loss
What to do if you lose the license key due to a faulty card:
1. Order a new card through your Siemens contact.
2. Contact the hotline with the serial numbers of the old and new card.
The hotline will assign the licenses to the new card and give you the new license key, which you can then transfer to the new card.
The same procedure applies to a Communication Board in the context of SIMOTION P.
What to do if you lose the license key:
1. Connect to the Web License Manager (http://www.siemens.com/automation/license) via a browser.
2. Click Show License Key.
The Show License Key screen is displayed.

3. Select Hardware serial number and enter the serial number of the memory card (taking care to ensure you enter it correctly).
4. Click the Get License Key button.
The license key is displayed.
How to transfer the license key to the memory card:
1. Choose either of the options below for transferring the license key.
Copy the license key and enter it via the Licenses dialog in SIMOTION SCOUT (CPU context menu).
Save the license key as a text file and copy it to the "KEYS\SIMOTION" directory of the memory card using a card reader and the Explorer. This directory is created when the SIMOTION control is ramped up. If it does not yet exist on the memory card, however, you will need to create it using the Explorer.
2. If necessary, generate a license report on all the licenses assigned to the memory card.
Note
The license key is saved in the "KEYS\SIMOTION" directory on the SIMOTION memory card. With SIMOTION V4.1 SP1 and higher, the license key is copied to the boot sector of the card when the control is ramped up. From then on, it is safely backed up (so that it cannot be lost). If the license key is no longer present on the card, it will be written from the boot sector to the "KEYS\SIMOTION" directory again during ramp-up. This means that the system can rectify any instances of the key being deleted accidentally.
Licensing during hardware replacement
When replacing licensed SIMOTION components (MMC, CF, IsoPROFIBUS board, or MCI-PN board), the associated license key must be assigned to the new SIMOTION component. In this case, please contact customer support for assistance.
