MPI interface
The MPI is the interface of the CPU for the programming device/OP and for
communication in an MPI subnet.
Typical (default) transmission speed is 187.5 Kbps (CPU 318-2: adjustable up to
12 Mbps).
Communication with an S7-200 requires 19.2 Kbps.
The CPU automatically broadcasts its set bus parameters (e.g. baud rate) at the
MPI interface. This means that a programming device, for example, can
automatically ”hook up to an MPI subnet.
PROFIBUS-DP Interface
CPUs equipped with 2 interfaces provide a PROFIBUS-DP interface connection.
Transmission rates up to 12 Mbps are possible.
The CPU automatically broadcasts its set bus parameters (e.g. baud rate) at the
PROFIBUS-DP interface. This means that a programming device, for example,
can automatically hook up to a PROFIBUS subnet.
In Step 7 you can switch off automatic transfer of bus parameter.

The clock continues to operate in
power off mode. At POWER ON, the clock continues
to operate using the clock time at
which POWER OFF took place.
With
accumulator The clock continues to operate in
power off mode for the backup time
of the accumulator. When the power
is on, the accumulator is recharged.
Since the clock does not have a
power buffer, it does not continue to
run in POWER OFF mode.
In the event of backup failure, an
error message is not generated.
When the power comes on again,
the clock continues at the clock time
at which the power went off.
None At POWER ON, the clock continues
to operate using the clock time at
which POWER OFF took place.
Since the CPU is not backed up, the
clock does not continue at POWER
OFF.
1.2 Communication Options of the CPU
The CPUs offer you the following communication options:
CPUs

A5E00111190-01
Table 1-6 CPU Communication Options
Communications MPI DP Description
PG/OP Communication x x A CPU can maintain several on-line connections
simultaneously with one or more programming devices or
operator panels. For PD/OP communication via the DP
interface, you must activate the Programming, modifying
and monitoring via the PROFIBUS function when
configuring and assigning parameters to the CPU.
S7 Basic Communication x x Using the I system functions, you can transfer data over the
MPI/DP network within an S7-300 (acknowledged data
exchange). Data exchange takes place via non-configured
S7 connections.
x - Using the XI system functions, you can transfer data to
other communication peers in the MPI subnet
(acknowledged data exchange). Data exchange takes
place via non-configured S7 connections.
A listing of I/X SFCs is found in the Instruction List. Details
are found in the STEP 7 Online Help or in the System and
Standard Functions reference manual.
Routing of PG Functions x x With CPUs 31x-2 and STEP 7 as of V 5/0, you can route
your PG/PC to S7 stations of other subnets, e.g. for
downloading user programs or hardware configurations, or
executing, testing and commissioning functions. Routing
with the DP interface requires you to activate the
Programming, Status/Control... function when configuring
and assigning parameters to the CPU.
Details on routing are found in the STEP 7-Online Help.
S7 Communication x - S7 communication takes place via configured S7
connections. Here, the S7-300-CPUs are servers for
S7-400 CPUs. That is, S7-400 CPUs have read/write
access to S7-300 CPUs.
Global Data Communication x - The CPUs of the S7-300/400 can exchange global data
with one another (unacknowledged data exchange).

Connection Resources
Every communication connection requires a communication resource on the
S7 CPU as a management unit for the duration of the communication. Every
S7 CPU has a certain number of connection resources available to it according to
its technical specifications which can be assigned to various communication
services (PD/OP communication, S7 communication or S7 basic communication).
The distribution of connection resources differs between CPUs 312 IFM to 316-2
DP (see the table 3-6) and the CPU 318-2 (see Table 1-8):
CPUs

A5E00111190-01
Connection Resources for CPUs 312IFM to 316-2 DP
Communication resources are independent of the interface in CPUs 315-2 DP and
316-2 DP. That is, a PG communication occupies a connection resource,
regardless of whether the connection was established via MPI or DP interface.
Table 1-7 Connection Resources for CPUs 312 IFM to 316-2 DP
Communication Function Description
PD communication/
OP communication In order to make the allocation of connection resources dependent not
only on the chronological sequence in which various communication
OP communication
S7 basic communication services are registered, connection resources can be reserved for the
following services:
PD communication and OP communication
S7 basic communication
For PD/OP communication, at least one connection resource is reserved
as the default setting. Lower values are not possible.
The technical specifications of the CPUs detail the possible connection
resources settings and the default settings in each case. In STEP 7 you
specify a redistribution of communication resources when you configure
the CPU.
S7 communication Other communication services such as S7 communication using
PUT/GET functions can not use these communication resources even if
they establish their connection at an earlier time. Instead, the remaining
available connection resources that have not been specifically reserved
for a particular service are used.
Example based on CPU 314 which has 12 connection resources
available:
- You reserve 2 connection resources for PD communication
- You reserve 6 connection resources for OP communication
- You reserve 1 connection resource for S7 basic communication
In this case, you still have three communication resources available
for S7 communication, PG/OP communication and S7 basic
communication.
Note on OP Communication Resources: When using more than three
OPs, error messages might occur due to temporary lack of resources in
the CPU. Examples of such error messages are 44 T ransmission error
#13 or #368 S7 communication error class 131 No. 4.
Remedy: Acknowledge error messages manually or after a time delay
configured in PROTOOL (in System Messages→→Display time).
Routing of PG functions The CPUs provide connection resources for four routed connections.
(CPU 31x-2 DP) Those connection resources are available in addition.

343-1 with data lengths >240
bytes for Send/Receive

Table 1-8 Communication Resources for CPU 318-2
Communication Function Description
PD/OP communication The CPU 318-2 provides a total of 32 connection resources (with CPU
as connection terminal point) for these communication functions. Those
32 connection resources can be freely allocated to the various
communication functions.
S7 basic communication When allocating connection resources, you should observe the following
points:
The number of connection resources differs for each interface as
follows:
Routing of PD functions MPI/DP Interface 32 communication resources
DP-SS: 16 communication resources
In the case of connections that do not have the CPU as their terminal
point (e.g. an FM or in the case of routing) you must deduct 2
connection resources from the total resources and 1 connection
S7 communication resource per interface.
Figure 1-3 shows the principle of allocation of connection resources.
An example of how connection resources are dimensioned is found in
Chapter LEERER MERKER.

Data Consistency for Communication
An essential aspect of the transmission of data between devices is its consistency.
The data that is transmitted together should all originate from the same processing
cycle and should thus belong together, i.e. be consistent.
If there is a programmed communication function such as X-SEND/ X-RCV which
accesses shared data, then access to that data area can be co-ordinated by
means of the parameter “BUSY” itself.
However, with S7 communication functions not requiring a block in the user
program of the 31x CPU (as server), e.g. PUT/GET or read/write operations via
OP communication, the dimension of data consistency must be taken into account
during programming. The following differences between CPUs 312IFM to 316-2 DP
and CPU 318-2 must be taken into account:

PUT/GET functions of S7 communication, or
reading/writing variables via OP
communication, are processed during the
PUT/GET functions of S7 communication, or
reading/writing to variable via OP
communication are processed in defined time
cycle checkpoint of the CPU.
A defined process interrupt reaction time is
ensured by consistent copying of
communication variables in blocks of 32 bytes
(CPU Versions lower than described in this
windows in the CPU 318-2 operating system.
For that reason, the user program can be
interrupted after every command

communication variable is being accessed.

user memory during the cycle checkpoint of

guaranteed for any larger data areas.
Therefore, communication variables in the
The data consistency of a communication
variable is therefore only possible within the
limits of the command boundaries used in the
user program.
If a data consistency size greater than Byte,
user program must not exceed a length of 8
or 32 byte if data consistency is required.
If you copy communication variables using
SFC 81 “UBLKMOV”, the copying process is
not interrupted by higher priority classes.
Word or DWord is required, communication
variables in the user program must always be
copied using SFC81 “UBLKMOV” that
guarantees consistent reading/writing of the

Global Data Communication with S7-300 CPUs
Below you will find important features of global data communication in the S7-300.
Send/Receive Conditions
For the communication via GD circuits, you should observe the following
conditions:
Required for the GD packet transmitter is:
Reduction ratio Transmitter Cycle time Transmitter 60 ms (CPU 318-2: 10 ms
Required for the GD packet receiver is:
Reduction ratio Receiver Cycle timer eceiver Reduction ratio Transmitter Cycle
time Transmitter
Non-observance of these conditions can lead to the loss of a GD packet. The
reasons for this are:
The performance capability of the smallest CPU in the GD circuit
Sending and receiving of global data is carried out asynchronously by the
sender and receiver.
Loss of global data is displayed in the status field of a GD circuit if you have
configured this with STEP 7.
Note
Note when communicating via global data: sent global data is not acknowledged
by the receiving partner!
The sender therefore receives no information on whether a receiver and which
receiver has received the sent global data.
Send Cycles for Global Data
In STEP 7 (as of Version 3.0), the following situation can arise if you set “Send
after every CPU cycle with a short CPU cycle time (< 60 ms): the operating
system overwrites GD packets the CPU has not yet transmitted. Tip: Loss of
global data is displayed in the status field of a GD circuit if you have configured this
with STEP 7.

Details on the testing functions are found in the STEP 7 Online Help.
Important for the Status FB!
The STEP 7 function Status FB increases CPU cycle time!
In STEP 7 you can specify a maximum permissible increase in cycle time (not
CPU 318-2). In this case, in STEP 7 you must specify process mode for the CPU
parameters.

Different Features of Forcing S7-300
Please note the different features of forcing in the different CPUs:
CPU 318-2 CPU 312IFM to 316-2DP
The variables of a user program with
fixed preset values (force values)
cannot be changed or overwritten by
the user program.
It is not permissible to force peripheral
or process image areas lying in the
range of consistent user data.
The variables of a user program with
fixed preset values (force values) can
be changed or overwritten in the user
program.
(See Figure 1-4 on page 1-21)
The following can be variables:
Inputs/outputs
Peripheral I/Os
Memory markers
You can force up to 256 variables.
The following can be variables:
Inputs/Outputs
You can force up to 10 variables.

Forcing with the CPU 312 IFM to 316-2 DP:
!Caution
Forced values in the input process image can be overwritten by write instructions
(e.g. T EB x, = E x.y, copying with SFC etc.) and peripheral read instructions (e.g.
L PEW x) in the user program, as well as by write instructions of PG/OP opera-
tions!
Outputs initialized with forced values only return the forced value if the user pro-
gram does not execute any write accesses to the outputs using peripheral write
commands (e.g. TPQB x ) and if no PG/OP functions write to these outputs!
Always note that forced values in the I/O process image cannot be overwritten by
the user program or PG/OP functions!

1.3.3 Diagnostics with STEP 7
Note
Please note that this is not a fail-safe or redundant system, regardless of its exi-
sting extensive monitoring and error reaction functions.
If an error occurs, the CPU enters the cause of the error in the diagnostic buffer.
You can read the diagnostic buffer using the programming device.
The CPU switches to STOP if an error or interrupt event occurs, or your user
program reacts accordingly with error or interrupt OBs. Details on STEP 7
diagnostic functions are found in the STEP 7 Online Help.
In the Instruction list you can find an overview
of the OBs you can use to react to respective error or interrupt events, as well
as of the OBs you can program in the respective CPU

CPU Reaction on Missing Error OB
If you have not programmed an error OB, the CPU reacts as follows:
CPU goes into STOP on missing ... CPU Remains in RUN with Missing ...
OB 80 (Runtime error)
OB 85 (Program cycle error)
OB 86 (Station failure in the PROFIBUS-
DP subnet)
OB 87 (Communication error)
OB 121 (Programming error)
OB 122 (Peripheral direct access
error)
OB 81 (Power break)
CPU Behavior When There Is No Interrupt OB
If you have not programmed an interrupt OB, the CPU reacts as follows:
CPU goes into STOP on missing ... CPU Remains in RUN with Missing ...
OB 10/11 (T OD interrupt)
OB 20/21 (Delay interrupt)
OB 40/41 (Process interrupt)
OB 55 (TOD interrupt)
OB 56 (Delay interrupt)
OB 57 (for manufacturer-specific
interrupts)
OB 82 (Diagnostic interrupt)
OB 83 (Insertion/Removal interrupt)
OB 32/35 (Watchdog interrupt)
Tip on OB35 (CPU 318-2: also OB32)
For the watchdog interrupt OB 35/32, you can specify times starting from 1 ms.
Note: The smaller the selected watchdog interrupt period, the more likely
watchdog interrupt errors will occur. You must take into account the operating
system times of the CPU in question, the runtime of the user program and the
extension of the cycle by active programming device functions, for example.

Integrated Functions of the CPU 312 IFM
Integrated Functions Description
Process interrupt Interrupt input means: inputs configured with this function trigger a process
interrupt at the corresponding signal edge.
Interrupt input options for the digital inputs 124.6 to 125.1 must be programmed
in STEP 7.
Counter The CPU 312 IFM offers these special functions as an alternative at the digital
inputs 124.6 to 125.1.
Frequency meter For a description of the special functions Counter and Frequency meter”,
please refer to the Integrated Functions Manual.
Interrupt Inputs of the CPU 312 IFM
If you wish to use the digital inputs 124.6 to 125.1 as interrupt inputs, you must
program these in STEP 7 in the CPU parameters.
Note the following points:
These digital inputs have a very low signal delay. At this interrupt input, the
module recognizes pulses with a length as of approx. 10 to 50 s. Always use
shielded cable to connect active interrupt inputs in order to avoid interrupts
triggered by line interference.
Note The minimum pulse width of an interrupt trigger pulse is 50 s.
The input status associated with an interrupt in the input process image or with
LPIB always changes with ”normal” input delay of approx.3 ms.

triggered a process interrupt. Figure 1-5 shows the allocation of the interrupt inputs
to the bits of the double word.
Note: Several bits can be set if interrupts are triggered by several inputs within
short intervals (< 100 s). That is, the OB is started once only, even if several
interrupts are pending.

Special Features
Integrated I/Os (wired with 40-pole front connector)
Details on analog value processing and how to connect measuring transducers,
load and actuators to analog I/O is found in the Module Data reference manual.
Figures 1-14 and 1-15 on page 1-59 show wiring examples.
Memory card
The CPU 314 IFM is available in 2 versions: with and without Memory Card slot.
With slot for memory card: 6ES7 314-5AE10-0AB0
Without slot for memory card: 6ES7 314-5AE0x-0AB0
Integrated Functions of the CPU 314 IFM
Integrated
Functions Description
Process interrupt Interrupt input means: inputs configured with this function trigger a process
interrupt at the corresponding signal edge.
If you wish to use the digital inputs 126.0 to 126.3 as interrupt inputs, you must
program these using STEP 7.
Note: Your user program should access analog inputs of your CPU
individually per L PEW in order to avoid an increase of interrupt
response times. Double-word addressing can increase the access
times by up to 200 s!
Counter The CPU 314 IFM offers these special functions as an alternative at the
Frequency meter digital inputs 126.0 to 126.3. For a description of these special
Counter A/B functions, please refer to the Integrated Functions Manual.
Positioning
CONT_C These functions are not restricted to specific inputs and outputs of the
CONT_S CPU 314 IFM. For a description of these functions, please refer to the
PULSEGEN System and Standard Functions Reference Manual.
CPUs
1-44 PLC S7-300, CPU Specifications CPU 312 IFM to CPU 318-2 DP
A5E00111190-01
Interrupt Inputs of the CPU 314 IFM
If you want to assign interrupt functions to the digital inputs 126.0 to 126.4,
configure your CPU parameters in STEP 7 accordingly.
Note the following points:
These digital inputs have a very low signal delay. At this interrupt input, the module
recognizes pulses with a length as of approx. 10 to 50 s. Always use shielded
cable to connect active interrupt inputs in order to avoid interrupts triggered by line
interference.
Note The minimum pulse width of an interrupt trigger pulse is 50 s.
Start information for OB40
Table 1-10 shows the temporary (TEMP) variables of OB40 relevant for the
Interrupt inputs of the CPU 314 IFM. Refer to theSystem and Standard functions
reference manual for details on the process interrupt OB.

Display of the Interrupt Inputs
In variable OB40_POINT_ADDR, you can view the interrupt inputs which have
triggered a process interrupt. Figure 1-9 shows the allocation of the interrupt inputs
to the bits of the double word.
Note: Several bits can be set if interrupts are triggered by several inputs within
short intervals (< 100 s). That is, the OB is started once only, even if several
interrupts are pending.

Wiring diagram of the CPU 314 IFM
Figure 1-11 shows the wiring diagram of the CPU 314 IFM.
For the connection of integrated I/O you require two 40-pole front connectors
(Order no.: 6ES7392-1AM00-0AA0).
Always wire up digital inputs 126.0 to 126.3 with shielded cable due to their low
input delay time.
!Caution
Wiring errors at the analog outputs can cause the integrated analog I/O of the
CPU to be destroyed! (for example, if the interrupt inputs are wired by mistake to
the analog output).
The analog output of the CPU is only indestructible up to 15 V (output with respect
to MANA).

Special Features
4 accumulators
The configuration of MPI interfaces can be changed: MPI or PROFIBUS DP
(DP Master).
Configurable data areas (Process image, local data)
Information on differences between CPU 318-2 and other CPUs is found in
Chapter 4.1.
DP master or DP slave
You can operate the CPU 318-2 DP as DP Master or DP Slave in a
PROFIBUS-DP network. However, note that only one of the interfaces can be a
DP Slave. For details on PROFIBUS-DP characteristics of CPU 318-2 DP refer to
Chapter 2.
Definable Data Areas and Occupied Working Memory
In your CPU 318-2 configuration, you can change the size of the I/O process
image and the local data areas.
Increasing default values for the process image and local data requires additional
memory that would otherwise be available for user programs.
Take following dimensions into account:
Input process image: 1 byte PII occupies
12 Byte in memory
Output process image: 1 Byte PIO occupies
12 bytes in memory
Example:
256 bytes in PII occupy 3072 bytes,
2047 byte in PIO already occupy 24564 bytes in memory.
Local data 1 local data byte occupies
1 byte in memory
256 byte is default, depending on the priority class. With 14 priority classes
there are therefore 3584 bytes occupied in the working memory. With a
maximum size of 8192 bytes you can still allocate 4608 bytes, which are then
no longer available for the user program in the working memory.
Communication
You can transform the first CPU interface from MPI to DP interface operation. You
can operate the CPU as DP Master or DP Slave on this DP interface. Routing
reduces the maximum possible number of connections for each one of the two
interfaces by one connection per active PG/OP communication used by the CPU
318-2 as network node.

Introduction
In this chapter you will find the features and technical specifications of the CPUs
315-2 DP, 316-2DP and 318-2. You will need these in order to use the CPU as a
DP master or a DP slave and configure it for direct communication.
Agreement: Since DP Master/Slave behavior is the same for all CPUs, the CPUs
described below are referred to as CPU 31x-2.
Note on CPU 318-2: With a CPU 318-2 you can operate the MPI-/DP interface as
DP interface. In this case, however, you can only configure it as DP Master and
not as DP Slave.

2.1 Information on DPV1 Functionality
The aim
The EN50170 Standard for Distributed Peripherals was subject to further
development. All changes were incorporated in IEC 61158 / EN 50170,
Volume 2, PROFIBUS. In order to simplify matters we now refer to DPV1
Mode.
How do I identify a DPV1 Master/Slave?
DP Master CPUs of the S7-400 family and the CPU 318-2, respectively with
integrated DP interface, support DPV1 Master functionality as of Firmware Version
3.0.0.
DP Slaves, listed in the STEP 7 hardware catalog under their family name can be
identified as DPV1 Slaves with the help of the info text. DP Slaves implemented in
STEP 7 via GSD files support V1 functionality as of GSD Revision 3.
As of which STEP 7 version is migration to DPV1 mode possible?
As of STEP 7 V5.1, Servicepack 2.
Which operating modes are available for DPV1 modules?
You are using a DPV1 automation module, but do not want to migrate to DPV1
mode. In this case you use S7 compatible mode. In this mode, the automation
module is compatible to EN50170. In this case, however, you cannot utilize full
DPV1 functionality. You could, for example, use the new SFBs 52...54. However,
default values are written to non-existing data.
You are using a DPV1 compatible automation module and want to migrate to DPV1
mode. In this case, use DPV1 mode for full functionality. In your station you can
continue using automation modules not supporting DPV1 as usual.
Can I use all previous slaves after migration to DPV1 mode?
Yes, without restriction. The only difference here is that your previous slaves do not
support extended DPV1 functions.

PLC S7-300, CPU Specifications CPU 312 IFM to CPU 318-2 DP
A5E00111190-01
Can I use DPV1 Slaves without this migration?
Yes, without restriction. In this case, DPV1 Slaves behave as conventional Slaves.
SIEMENS DPV1 Slaves can also be operated in S7 compatible mode. For DPV1
Slaves of other manufacturers you require a GSD file to EN50170 below Revision
3. DPV1 station-wide.
You must convert the complete station to DPV1 mode if you migrate to DPV1. In
STEP 7 you can configure this mode in the HW Config module (DP Mode).
Details on migration to DPV1 mode are found in our Customer Support
under FAQ topic ID: 7027576

In the input address area, DP diagnostic addresses occupy 1 byte for the DP
master and for each DP slave. Under these addresses, for example, you can call
DP standard diagnostics for the respective nodes (LADDR parameter of SFC13).
The DP diagnostic addresses are specified during configuration. If you do not
specify any DP diagnostic addresses, STEP 7 assigns these addresses, in
decrements starting at the highest byte.
Configuring modules with addresses assigned to the peripheral area
Always configure a module address in a peripheral area either completely inside or
completely outside of the process image. Otherwise, consistency is not ensured
and corrupted data might be generated.

2.3 CPU 31x-2 as DP Master
Introduction
This section covers the features and technical specifications of the CPU when it is
used as a DP master.
The features and technical specifications of the CPU 31x-2 as the “standard” CPU
are listed in Section 1.
Prerequisite
Should the MPI/DP interface be a DP interface? If so, you must then configure the
interface as a DP interface.
Before the CPU can be put into operation, it must be configured as a DP master.
This means carrying out the following steps in STEP 7 :
Configure the CPU as a DP master.
Assign a PROFIBUS address.
Assign a master diagnostic address.
Integrate DP slaves into the DP master system.
Is a DP slave a CPU 31x-2?
If so, you will find that DP slave in the PROFIBUS-DP catalog as
pre-configured station. This DP slave CPU must be assigned a slave
diagnostic address in the DP master. Interconnect the DP master and the DP
slave CPU. Specify the address areas for data exchange with the DP slave
CPU.
Status/Control, Programming via PROFIBUS
As an alternative to the MPI interface, you can program the CPU via
PROFIBUS-DP interface or execute the PGs status and control functions.
Note
The use of Monitor and Modify via the PROFIBUS-DP interface lengthens the DP
cycle.
Equidistance
As of STEP 7 V 5.x you can configure bus cycles of the same length (equidistant)
for PROFIBUS subnets. You can find a detailed description of equidistance in the
STEP 7 online help system.

Power-Up of the DP Master System
CPU 31x-2DP is DP Master CPU 318-2 is DP Master
You can also set power-up time monitoring
of the DP slaves with the
Transfer of parameters to modules
parameter.
Using the parameters
Transfer of parameters to modules and
Ready message from modules you can
set power-up time monitoring for the DP
slaves.
This means that the DP slaves must be powered up and configured by the CPU (as DP
master) in the set time.
PROFIBUS Address of the DP Master
You cannot set the 126 as the PROFIBUS address for the CPU 31x-2.
2.4 Diagnostics of the CPU 31x-2 as DP Master
Diagnosis with LEDs
Table 2-1 describes the meaning of the BUSF LED.
For display the BUSF LED assigned to the PROFIBUS-DP interface is always it or
it flashes.
Table 2-1 Meaning of the BUSF LED of the CPU 31x-2 as DP Master
BUSF Description Remedy
LED off Configuring data OK;
all configured slaves are addressable.
LED on Bus fault (hardware fault). Check for bus cable breaks or short-circuit.

At least one of the configured slaves
cannot be addressed.
Check the bus cable connection to the
CPU31x-312, or check whether the bus is
interrupted.
Wait until the CPU 31x-2 has powered up. If the
LED does not stop flashing, check the DP
slaves or evaluate the diagnostic data for the
DP slaves.

Diagnostic Addresses
With a CPU 31x-2, you assign the diagnostic addresses for the PROFIBUS-DP.
Make sure during configuration that DP diagnostic addresses are assigned to both
the DP master and the DP slave.
During configuration you must specify two diagnostic
addresses:
PROFIBUS
CPU 31x-2 as DP SlaveCPU 31x-2 as DP Master
Diagnostic
address Diagnostic
address
When you configure the DP master, you
must specify (in the associated project of
the DP master) a diagnostic address for
the DP slave. In the following, this
diagnostic address is referred to as
allocated to the DP master.
When you configure the DP slave, you
must also specify (in the associated
project of the DP slave) a diagnostic
address that is allocated to the DP slave.
In the following, this diagnostic address
is referred to as allocated to the DP
slave.
The DP master receives information on
the status of the DP slave or on a bus
interruption via this diagnostic address
(see also Table 2-3).
The DP slave receives information on
the status of the DP master or on a bus
interruption via this diagnostic address
(see also Table 2-8 on page 2-23).

2.5 CPU 31x-2 as DP-Slave
Introduction
This section lists the characteristics and technical specifications for the CPU when
it is operated as a DP slave.
The characteristics and technical specifications of the CPU as the “standard” CPU
can be found in Section 1.
Prerequisite
Should the MPI/DP interface be a DP interface? If so, you must then configure the
interface as a DP interface.
Prior to startup, the CPU must be configured as a DP slave. This means carrying
out the following steps in STEP 7:
Switch on the CPU as DP slave.
Assign a PROFIBUS address.
Assign a slave diagnostic address.
Specify the address areas for data exchange with the DP Master.
Device Master Files
You need a device master file to configure the CPU 31x-2 as a DP slave in a DP
master system.
COM PROFIBUS as of V 4.0 includes the GSD file.
If you are working with an older version or another configuration tool, you can get
the device master file from the following sources:
On the Internet at http://www.ad.siemens.de/csi_e/gsd
or
Via modem from the SSC (Interface Center) Fuerth by calling 0911/911/737972.
Configuration and parameter assignment message frame
STEP 7 provides support for the configuration and parameter assignment of 31x-2
CPUs. If you require a description of the configuration and parameter assignment
message frame, for example, to carry out a check using a bus monitor, refer to the
Internet URL http://www.ad.siemens.de/simatic-cs, article ID 1452338.

A5E00111190-01
Status/Control, Programming via PROFIBUS
As an alternative to the MPI interface, you can program the CPU via
PROFIBUS-DP interface or execute the PGs Status and Control functions . To do
so, you must enable these functions when configuring the CPU as a DP slave in
STEP 7.
Note
The use of Monitor and Modify via the PROFIBUS-DP interface lengthens the DP
cycle.
Data Transfer Via Transfer Memory
The CPU 31x-2 operating as DP Slave provides a transfer memory for
PROFIBUS DP. The data transfer between the CPU as DP slave and the DP
master always takes place via this intermediate memory. Here you can configure
up to 32 address areas.
That is, the DP Master writes its data to the address areas of the transfer memory
while the CPUs user program fetches these data and vie versa.

Address areas of the transfer memory
Configure the I/O address areas in STEP 7:
you can configure up to 32 I/O address areas
the maximum length of each one of these address areas is 32 bytes
You can configure a maximum of 244 bytes for inputs and 244 bytes for
outputs.
The table below shows the principle of address areas. You can also find this figure
in the STEP 7 configuration.

Address areas in the
DP Master CPU Address areas in the
DP Slave CPU These address area parameters
must be the same for both the DP
Master and DP Slave
Rules
The following rules must be followed when using the intermediate memory:
Address area assignment:
Input data of the DP slave are always output data of the DP master
Output data of the DP slave are always input data of the DP master
The addresses can be freely allocated. In the user program, access the data
with Load/Transfer statements or with SFCs 14 and 15. You can also specify
addresses from the I/O process images.
Note
Transfer memory addresses are assigned from the DP address area of the CPU
31x-2.
Do not assign transfer memory addresses to the I/O modules in the CPU 31x-2!
The lowest address represents the start address of the respective address
area.
Length, unit and consistency of DP Master/Slave address areas related to each
other must be identical.

S5 DP Master
If you are using an IM 308 C as a DP master and the CPU 31x-2 as a DP slave,
the exchange of consistent data requires the following:
In the IM 308 C, you must program FB 192 to enable the exchange of consistent
data between DP master and DP slave. FB192 outputs/fetches all CPU 31x-2 data
in a single block!
S5-95 as a DP master
If you are using an AG S5-95 as a DP master, you must also set its bus
parameters for the CPU 31x-2 as a DP slave.

An S7 diagnosis can be requested for all the modules in the SIMATIC S7/M7 range
of modules in the user program. The structure of the S7 diagnostic data is the
same for both central and distributed modules.
The diagnostic data of a module is in data records 0 and 1 of the system data area
of the module. Data record 0 contains 4 bytes of diagnostic data describing the
current state of a module. Data record 1 also contains module-specific diagnostic
data.
You can find out how to configure the diagnostic data in the System and Standard

Diagnostic Addresses
With a CPU 31x-2, you assign the diagnostic addresses for the PROFIBUS-DP.
Make sure during configuration that DP diagnostic addresses are assigned to both
the DP master and the DP slave.
During configuration you must specify two diagnostic
addresses:
PROFIBUS
CPU 31x-2 as DP SlaveCPU 31x-2 as DP Master
Diagnostic address Diagnostic address
When you configure the DP master, you
must specify (in the associated project of
the DP master) a diagnostic address for
the DP slave. In the following, this
diagnostic address is referred to as
allocated to the DP master.
When you configure the DP slave, you
must also specify (in the associated
project of the DP slave) a diagnostic
address that is allocated to the DP slave.
In the following, this diagnostic address
is referred to as allocated to the DP
slave.
The DP master receives information on
the status of the DP slave or on a bus
interruption via this diagnostic address
(see also Table 2-3 on page 2-11).
The DP slave receives information on
the status of the DP master or on a bus

2.6.10 Interrupts
Interrupts with S7/M7 DP Master
You can trigger a process interrupt at the DP Master in the user program of a CPU
31x-2 operating as DP Slave. A call of SFC 7 “DP_PRAL” triggers an OB40 in the
user program of the DP Master. SFC 7 allows you to forward interrupt information
in a DWORD to the DP master; this information can then be evaluated in OB 40 in
variable OB40_POINT_ADDR. You can program the interrupt information as
desired. A detailed description of SFC 7 “DP_PRAL” can be found in the reference
manual entitled System Software S7-300/400 - System and Standard Functions.
Interrupts with Another DP Master
If you are running the CPU 31x-2 with another DP master, these interrupts are
reflected in the station diagnosis of the CPU 31x-2. You must post-process the
relevant diagnostic events in the DP masters user program.
Note
When evaluating diagnostic/process interrupts with another DP Master via
device-specific diagnostics, take into consideration:
The DP master should be able to store the diagnostic messages, that is, the
DP master should have a ring buffer in which to place these messages. If the
DP master can not store diagnostic messages, only the last diagnostic
message would be available for evaluation.
You must scan the relevant bits in the device-related diagnostic data in your
user program at regular intervals. You must also take the PROFIBUS-DPs bus
cycle time into consideration so that you can scan the bits at least once in sync
with the bus cycle time, for example.
With an IM 308-C operating as DP Master, you cannot use process interrupts
in a device-specific diagnosis because only incoming interrupts are reported,
rather than outgoing interrupts.

2.7 Direct Data Exchange
As of STEP 7 V 5.x you can configure Direct Data Exchange for your PROFIBUS
nodes. The CPU 31x-2 can take part in direct communication as the sender or
receiver.
Direct communication is a special communication relationship between
PROFIBUS-DP nodes.
Principle
Direct communication is characterized by the fact that the PROFIBUS-DP nodes
listen in to find out which data a DP slave is sending back to its DP master.
Using this function the eavesdropper (receiver) can directly access changes in the
input data of remote DP slaves.
In your configuration with STEP 7, specify via respective peripheral input
addresses the address area of the receiving station to which requested send data
is fetched.
A CPU 31x-2 can be:
Transmitter operating as DP Slave
Receiver operating as DP Slave or DP Master, or as CPU that is not
tied into a master system (see Figure 2-10).
Example:
Figure 2-10 shows an example of the direct communication “relationships” you can
configure. The figure shows all DP Masters and DP Slaves as CPU 31x-2. Note
that other DP Slaves (ET 200M, ET 200X, ET 200S) can only operate as
transmitters.

2.8 Diagnosis with Direct Communication
Diagnostic Addresses
With direct communication you allocate a diagnostic address on the receiver:
PROFIBUS
CPU 31x-2 as ReceiverCPU 31x-2 as Sender
Diagnostic address
During configuration you define in the
receiver a diagnostic address that is
allocated to the sender.
The receiver receives information on the
status of the sender or on a bus
interruption via this diagnostic address
(see also Table 2-15).
Figure 2-11 Diagnostic address for receiver with direct communication
Event Detection
Table 2-15 shows how a CPU 31x-2 operating as receiver recognizes data

Cycle and Reaction times
Introduction
In this section, we explain what the cycle time and the response time of the S7-300
consist of.
You can use the programming device to read the cycle time of your user program
(see the STEP 7 online help system).
The example below shows you how to calculate the cycle time.
The response time is more important for the process. In this chapter we will show
you in detail how to calculate the response time.

The response time is the time between detection of an input signal and
modification of an associated output signal.
Factors
The response time depends on the cycle time and the following factors:
Factors Remarks
Delay of the inputs and outputs The delay times are given in the technical specifications
In the Module Specifications Reference Manual for the
signal modules

Range of Fluctuation
The actual response time lies between a shortest and a longest response time.
You must always reckon on the longest response time when configuring your

User Program Processing Time:
The user program processing time is made up of the sum of the execution times
for the instructions and the SFB/SFCs called up. These execution times can be
found in the Instruction List. Additionally, you must multiply the user program
processing time by a CPU-specific factor. This factor is listed in Table 3-3 for the
individual CPUs.

PROFIBUS-DP interface
In the case of the CPU 315-2 DP/316-2DP, the cycle time is typically extended by
5% when the PROFIBUS-DP interface is used.
In the case of the CPU 318-2, there is no increase in cycle time when the
PROFIBUS-DP interface is used.
Integrated Functions
With CPU 312-IFM and 314-IFM operation the cycle time increases by a maximum
of 10% when using integrated functions. Also take into consideration a possible
instance DB update during the cycle checkpoint.
Table 3-5 shows the update times of the instance DB at the scan cycle checkpoint,
together with the corresponding SFB runtimes.

For digital outputs: Negligible delay times
For relay outputs: Typical delay times of between 10 ms and 20 ms.
The delay of the relay outputs depends, among other things, on the

the expected normal bus cycle time. On the PG you can then view the bus cycle
time of your configuration (refer to the STEP 7 User Manual).
An overview of the bus runtime is provided in Figure 3-4. In this example, we

2 SM 321 DI 32DC 24 V digital input modules (4 bytes each in the PI)
2 SM 322 DO 32DC 24 V/0.5A (4 bytes each in the PI)
According to the Instruction List, the user program has a runtime of 1.5 ms.
There is no communication.
Calculation
In this example, the cycle time is calculated from the following times:
Process image transfer time
Input process image: 147 s + 8 bytes13.6 s = approx. 0.26 ms
Output process image: 147 s + 8 bytes 13.6 s = approx. 0.26 ms
Operating system cycle time
Cycle control: approx. 1 ms
User program processing time:
approx. 1.5 ms CPU specific factor 1.15 = approx. 1.8 ms
Processing time of S7 timers
Assumption: 30 S7 timers are running.
For 30 S7 timers, the one-off update takes
30 8 s = 240s.
Process image transfer time + operating system processing time + user
program cycle time results in this time interval:
0.26 ms + 0.26 ms + 1 ms + 1.8 ms = 3.32 ms.
Since the S7 timers are called every 10 ms, a maximum of one call can be
made in this time interval, i.e. the S7 timers might increase cycle time by a
maximum of 240 s (= 0.24 ms)
The cycle time is calculated from the sum of the listed times:
Cycle time = 0.26 ms + 0.26 ms + 1 ms + 1.8 ms + 0.24 ms = 3.56 ms.

Parts of the Response Time
As a reminder, the response time is formed by the sum of:
2 Process image transfer time of inputs +
2 Process image transfer time of outputs +
2 operating system cycle time+
2 program cycle time+
Processing time of the S7 timers +
Delay times of the inputs and outputs
Tip: Simple calculation: calculated cycle time 2 + delay times.
Thus, for example one applies: 3.34 ms 2 + timers

You have configured an S7-300 with the following modules on two racks:

2 SM 331 AI 812 bits (not in the process image)
2 SM 332 AI 412 bits (not in the process image)
User program
According to the Instruction List, the user program has a runtime of 2 ms. By
taking into account the CPU-specific factor of 1.15, the resulting runtime is approx.
2.3 ms. The user program operates up to 56 S7 timers simultaneously. No
activities are required at the scan cycle checkpoint.
Calculation
In this example, the response time is calculated from the following times:
Process image transfer time
Input process image: 147 s + 16 bytes 13.6 s = approx. 0.36 ms
Output process image: 147 s + 6 bytes 13.6 s = approx. 0.23 ms

Processing time of S7 timers
Time required for a single update of 56 S7 timers: 568 s = 448 s 0.45
ms.
Since the S7 timers are called every 10 ms, a maximum of one call can be
made in the cycle time, i.e. the cycle time can be increased through the S7
timers by a maximum of 0.45 ms.
2. Intermediate calculation:The response time without I/O delay is formed by
the sum of
8.0 ms (result of the first intermediate calculation)
+ 0.45 ms (S7 timer processing time)
=8.45 ms.
Delay times of the inputs and outputs
The SM 321 The maximum delay time of the DI 32DC 24 V digital input
module is 4.8ms per channel.
Output delay of the digital output module SM 322; DO 16DC 24 V/0.5A
can be ignored.
The SM 331; AI 8 12bit analog input module was configured for an
interference frequency suppression of 50 Hz. This yields a conversion time
of 22 ms per channel. Since 8 channels are active, the cycle time for the
analog input module is 176 ms.
Analog output module SM 332 AO 412–bit was configured for a
measurement range of 0 ...10V. The conversion time is 0.8 ms per channel.
Thus, 4 active channels result in a cycle time of 3.2 ms. To be added is the
settling time of 0.1 ms for ohmic loads. Thus, the response time at the
analog output is 3.3 ms.
Response times with delay times for inputs and outputs:
Case 1: A digital output module channel is set after a digital input signal is
received. This results in a response time of:
Response time = 4.8 ms + 8.45 ms = 13.25 ms.
Case 2: An analog value is fetched and an analog value is output. This results
in a response time of:
Response time = 176 ms + 8.45 ms + 3.3 ms = 187.75 ms.

3.4 Interrupt response time
Interrupt Response Time A Definition
The interrupt response time is the time that elapses between the first occurrence of
an interrupt signal and the calling of the first instruction in the interrupt OB.
Generally valid is: High-priority interrupts are preferred. This means the interrupt
response time is increased by the program processing time of the higher-priority
interrupt OBs and the interrupt OBs of equal priority that have not yet been
executed.
Calculation
The interrupt response time is calculated as follows:
Shortest interrupt response time =
minimum CPU interrupt response time +
minimum interrupt response time of the signal modules +
PROFIBUS-DPbus cycle time
Longest interrupt response time =
maximum CPU interrupt response time +
maximum interrupt response time of the signal modules +
2 PROFIBUS-DPbus cycle time

Signal Modules
The response time of signal modules to process interrupts is calculated as follows:
Digital input modules
Process interrupt response time = internal interrupt processing time + Input
delay
You will find the times in the data sheet for the individual analog input module.
Analog input modules
Process interrupt response time = internal interrupt processing time +
Conversion time
The internal interrupt preparation time for the analog input modules is negligible.
The conversion times can be found in the data sheet for the individual digital
input modules.
The diagnostic interrupt response time of the signal modules is the time that
elapses between the detection of a diagnostic event by the signal module and the
triggering of the diagnostics interrupt by the signal module. This time is negligible.
Process interrupt processing
process interrupts are processed at the call of interrupt OB40. Higher-priority
interrupts interrupt hardware interrupt processing, the I/O is accessed directly at
the time of instruction execution. After the process interrupt has been processed,
cyclic program processing continues, or lower-/higher-priority interrupt OBs are
called and processed.

3.5 Calculation Example for the Interrupt Response Time
Parts of the Interrupt Response Time
As a reminder: The process interrupt response time is formed by:
Response time of the CPU to process interrupt and
the response time of the signal module to process interrupt.
Example: Your S7-300 assembly consists of a CPU 314 and four digital modules.
One digital input module is the SM 321; DI 16DC 24V; with hardware/diagnostic
interrupt configuration. In your CPU and SM configuration you have enabled only
process interrupt. You decided not to use time-controlled processing, diagnostics
or error handling. You configured an input delay of 0.5 ms for the digital input
module. No activities are necessary at the scan cycle checkpoint. There is no
communication via the MPI.
Calculation
In this example, the response time to process interrupt is calculated from following
times:
Response time of CPU 314 to process interrupt: approx. 1.1 ms
Process interrupt response time of SM 321; DI 16DC 24V:
Internal interrupt preparation time:
0.25 ms
Input delay 0.5 ms
The process interrupt response time is formed by the sum of all specified times:
Process interrupt response time = 1.1 ms + 0.25 ms + 0.5 ms = approx. 1.85 ms.
This calculated process interrupt response time represents the time expiring
between an incoming signal at the digital input and the first instruction in OB40.
3.6 Reproducibility of Delay and Watchdog Interrupts
Definition of Reproducibility
Delay Interrupt:
The interval between the call-up of the first instruction in the OB and the
programmed time of the interrupt.
Watchdog Interrupt:
The fluctuation of the time interval between two successive call-ups, measured in
each case between the first instruction in the OB.

The CPU 318 transfers the contents of accumulators 3 and 4
to accumulators 2 and 3 after these operations.
If accumulator 2 is evaluated in the (accepted) user program,
you now receive incorrect values with the CPU 318-2
because the value has been overwritten by the contents of
accumulator 3.
Configuration
From 312 IFM to 316-2 DP CPUs, the CPU 318-2 “imports” only projects created
with STEP 7 V 5.x.
You cannot operate programs containing FM or CP (SDB 1xxx) configuration data
(e.g. FM 353/354) in a CPU 318-2!
In this case, the respective project needs to be edited accordingly or recreated.
Starting a Timer in the User Program
The accumulator register in CPU 3182 must contain a number in BCD format
when starting a timer in your user program (e.g. with SI T).

In the object properties of the ”General” tab, you can assign a system ID when
configuring your CPU. This ID can be evaluated in the CPU user program (also

MPI Addressing
CPU 318-2 CPUs 312IFM to 316-2DP
The CPU addresses the MPI nodes within its
configuration (FM/CP) via the module start
address.
If FM/CP are in the central configuration of an
S7300 with their own MPI address, the CPU forms
its own communication bus (via the backplane bus)
with the FM/CP, separate from the other subnets.
The MPI address of the FM/CP is no longer
relevant for the nodes of other subnets.
Communication to the FM/CP takes place via the
CPU MPI address.
The CPUs address the MPI nodes within their
configuration via the MPI address.
If FM/CP are in the central configuration of an
S7300 with their own MPI address, the FM/CP
and CPU MPI nodes are in the same CPU subnet.
Your S7-300 structure includes an FM/CP addressed via MPI. You want to replace
the CPU 312 IFM ... 316 with a CPU 318-2. An example is shown in Figure 4-1,
Page 4-4.

After the CPUs have been swapped, you must proceed as follows (based on the
above example):
Replace the CPU 316 with the CPU 318-2 in the STEP 7 project.
Reconfigure the operator panel/programming device. That means: Reassign the
controls and start address (= MPI address of CPU 318-2 and the respective FM
slot)
Reconfigure the configuration data for the FM/CP to be loaded onto the CPU.
This is necessary to ensure that the FM/CP in this configuration remain accessible
to the operator panel/programming device.

Accumulator
Accumulators are registers in the CPU. They are an intermediate memory for
loading, transfer, compare, calculation and conversion operations.
Address
An address is an ID for a specific operand or operand area, for example: Input I
12.1; memory word MW 25, data block DB 3).

Code block
A SIMATIC S7 code block contains part of the STEP 7 user program. (In
contrast: data block only contains data.)
Compress
The programming device online function “Compress” is used to align all valid
blocks contiguously in the RAM of the CPU at the start of the user memory. This
eliminates all gaps which arose when blocks were deleted or modified.

Global data blocks can be accessed by all code blocks while instance data
blocks are assigned to a specific FB call.
Data, static
Static data is data which can only be used within a function block. The data is
saved in an instance data block belonging to the function block. The data stored
in the instance data block is retained until the next function block call.
Data, temporary
Temporary data is local data of a block which is stored in the L stack during
execution of a block and which is no longer available after execution.
Delay Interrupt

Diagnostic buffer
The diagnostic buffer is a buffered memory area in the CPU in which diagnostic
events are stored in the order of their occurrence.
DP Master
A master which behaves in accordance with EN 50170, Part 3 is known as a
DP master.
DP Slave
A DP Slave is operated on a PROFIBUS bus system, using the
PROFIBUS-DP protocol and behaves in accordance with EN 50170, Part 3.
Equipotential bonding
Electrical connection (equipotential bonding conductor) which gives the bodies of
electrical equipment and external conducting bodies the same or approximately
the same potential, in order to prevent disturbing or dangerous voltages from
being generated between these bodies.
Error display
Error display is one of the possible responses of the operating system to
runtime error. Other possible reactions are: Error response in the user
program, CPU STOP status.
Error handling via OB
If the operating system detects a specific error (e.g. an access error with STEP
7), it calls the organization block (error OB) which is provided for this event and
which specifies the subsequent behavior of the CPU.
Error response
Reaction to a runtime error. The operating system can react as follows:
Switching the PLC to STOP, call of an OB in which the user can program a
specific reaction, or display of the error.
External power supply

Function
Flash EPROM
FEPROMs are the same as electrically erasable EEPROMS in that they can
retain data in the event of a power failure, but they can be erased much more
quickly (FEPROM = Flash Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory). They
are used on Memory Cards.
Force
The “Force” function overwrites a variable (e.g. memory marker, output) with a
value defined by the S7 user. This variable is then write protected to prevent
modification by any other operation (including the STEP 7 user program). The
value is retained after the programming device is disconnected. The write
protection is not canceled until the “Unforce” function is called and the variable is
written again with the value defined by the user program. During commissioning,
for example, the “Force” function allows certain outputs to be set to the “ON”
state for any length of time even if the logic operations of the user program are
not fulfilled (e.g. because inputs are not wired).
Function
A function (FC) according to IEC 1131-3 is a code block containing no
static data. A function allows parameters to be passed in the user program.
Functions are therefore suitable for programming complex functions, e.g.
calculations, which are repeated frequently.
Function block
A function block (FB) according to IEC 1131-3 is a code block containing
static data. An FB allows parameters to be passed in the user program.
Function blocks are therefore suitable for programming complex functions, e.g.
closed-loop controls, mode selections, which are repeated frequently.

the electrical equipment. Functional grounding short-circuits interference voltage
which would otherwise have an impermissible impact on the equipment.
GD circuit
A GD circuit encompasses a number of CPUs which exchange data by means of
global data communication. They are used as follows:
A CPU broadcasts a GD packet to the other CPUs.
One CPU sends and receives a GD packet from another CPU.
A GD circuit is identified by a GD circuit number.
GD Element
A GD element is generated by assigning shared global data. It is uniquely
identified in the global data table by its GD ID.
GD Packet
A GD packet can consist of one or multiple GD elements transmitted in a
single message frame.
Global data
Global data can be addressed from any code block (FC, FB, OB). In detail,
this refers to memory bits M, inputs I, outputs Q, timers, counters and data
blocks (DBs). Absolute or symbolic access can be made to global data.
Global data communication
Global data communication represents a method for exchanging global data
between CPUs (without CFBs).

The CPU operating system knows 10 different priority classes that control
user program processing. Belonging to these priority classes are, for example,
e.g. process interrupts. When an interrupt is triggered, the operating system
automatically calls an assigned organization block in which the user can program
the desired response (for example in an FB).
Interrupt, Delay
The Delay Interrupt belongs to on of the priority classes for SIMATIC S7 program
processing. It is generated on expiration of a time started in the user program. A

Nesting depth
One block can be called from another by means of block calls. Nesting depth is
the number of code blocks called simultaneously.
Non-isolated
On non-isolated input/output modules, there is an electrical connection between
the reference potentials of the control and load circuits.
OB
Organization block
OB Priority
The CPU operating system differentiates between different priority classes,
e.g. cyclic program processing, process-interrupt controlled program processing.
An OB is assigned to each one of the priority classes. The S7 user can
program a reaction in these OBs. The OBs have different standard priorities
which determine the order in which they are executed or interrupted in the event
that they are activated simultaneously.
Organization block
Organization blocks (OBs) represent the interface between the operating system
of the CPU and the user program. The processing sequence of the user program
is defined in the organization blocks.

Operating system of the CPU
The operating system of the CPU organizes all functions and processes of the
CPU which are not associated with a special control task.
Parameter
1. STEP 7 code block variable
2. Variable for specifying module behavior (one or several per module). Each
module is delivered with a suitable default setting, which can be changed by
configuring the parameters in STEP 7.
There are static and dynamic parameters
Parameters, dynamic
Unlike static parameters, dynamic parameters of modules can be changed
during operation by calling an SFC in the user program, for example limit values
of an analog signal input module.
Parameters, static
Unlike dynamic parameters, static parameters of modules cannot be changed by
the user program, but only by changing the configuration in STEP 7, for example
the input delay on a digital signal input module.

Priority class
The S7 CPU operating system offers a maximum of 26 priority classes (or
program execution levels), Diverse OBs are assigned to these classes. The
priority classes determine which OBs interrupt other OBs. If a priority class
includes several OBs, they do not interrupt each other, but are executed
sequentially.

Process image
The process image forms part of CPU system memory. The signal states of
the input modules are written to the input process image at the start of the cyclic
program. At the end of the cyclic program, the signal states in the output process
image are transferred to the output modules.
Process Interrupt
A process interrupt is generated by respective modules, triggered as a result of
specific hardware events. The process interrupt is reported to the CPU. An
assigned OB is then processed, according to the interrupt priority.
Product version
The product version differentiates between products which have the same order
number. The product version is increased with each upwardly compatible
function extension, production-related modification (use of new components) or
bug-fix.
PROFIBUS-DP
Digital, analog and intelligent modules and a wide range of field devices to EN
50170, Part 3, e.g. drives or valve blocks, are distributed local to the local
process by the PLC - across distances of up to 23 km.
The modules and field devices are connected to the programmable controller via
the PROFIBUS-DP fieldbus and addressed in the same way as centralized I/Os.
Programmable controller
Programmable controllers (PLCs) are electronic controllers whose function is
saved as a program in the control unit. The configuration and wiring of the unit
are therefore independent of the function of the control system. The
programmable controller has the structure of a computer; it consists of the
CPU (central module) with its memory, I/O modules and an internal bus system.
The I/Os and the programming language are oriented to control engineering
needs.
Programming device
Programming devices are essentially personal computers which are compact,
portable and suitable for industrial applications. They are equipped with special
hardware and software for SIMATIC programmable controllers.

When a central processing unit is started up (e.g. by switching the mode selector
from STOP to RUN or by switching the power on), organization block OB 100
(complete restart) is executed before cyclic program execution commences (OB
1). On restart the input process image is read and the STEP 7- user program is
executed, starting at the first OB1 instruction.
Retentivity
A memory area is retentive if its contents are retained even after a power failure
and transition from STOP to RUN. The volatile area of memory markers, timers
and counters is reset following a power failure and a transition from the STOP
mode to the RUN mode.
The following can be made retentive:
Bit memories
S7 timers (not for CPU 312 IFM)
S7 counters
Data areas (only with memory card or integral EPROM)
Runtime error
Errors occurring during program execution in the PLC (that is, not in the
process).

Start-up
RESTART mode is activated on a transition from STOP mode to RUN mode.
Can be triggered with the Mode Selector Switch or after Power On or with a
PG operation. With an S7-300 a complete restart is performed.

System function
Signal module
Signal modules (SM) form the interface between the process and the PLC. There
are digital modules digital modules (I/O module, digital) and analog modules (I/O
module, analog).
Slave
A Slave can exchange data only on Master request.
System diagnostics
System diagnostics is a method used to recognize, evaluate and report PLC
errors. Examples of such errors: program error or module failure. System errors
can be displayed with LED indicators or in STEP 7.
System Function
This function (SFC) is
integrated in the CPU operating system. It can be called as required in the
STEP 7 user program.
System Function Block
The SFB is integrated in the CPU operating system. This function block can
be called as required in the STEP 7 user program.

System memory
System memory is an integrated CPU RAM memory. This system memory
contains the operand areas (e.g. timers, counters, memory bits) and data areas
required internally by the operating system (e.g. communication buffer).
System state list
The system status list contains data describing the current status of an S7-300.
You can use it to gain an overview of the following at any time:
S7-300 configuration
Current CPU configuration and the configurable signal modules
The current states and sequences in the CPU and the configurable signal
modules.
STEP 7
Programming language for developing user programs for SIMATIC S7 PLCs.
Substitute value
Substitute values are configurable values which output modules transmit to the
process when the CPU switches to STOP mode.
In the event of an input access error, a substitute value can be written to the
accumulator instead of the input value which could not be read (SFC 44).
Terminating resistor
A resistance for terminating a data transmission line. Avoids reflections.
Times
Times are integrated in CPU system memory. The contents of the timer cells”
are updated automatically by the operating system, asynchronously to the user
program. STEP 7 instructions are used to define the exact function of the timer
cells (for example on-delay) and initiate their execution (e.g. start).

User memory
User memory contains Code/Data blocks of the user program. User
memory can be integrated in the CPU, on Memory Card or Memory modules.
The user program, however, is always processed from CPU main memory.
User program
SIMATIC differentiates between the CPU operating system and user
programs. The latter are created with the Programming Software STEP 7 in
the possible Programming languages ( FUP, STL) and stored in code blocks.
Data are stored in data blocks.
