Some of the SFCs that work asynchronously, when used on CPUs 312 IFM to 318-2 DP, were always, or under certain conditions, processed after the first call ("quasi-synchronous").

Information for the Changeover to the Technology CPU 9.2 Changed behavior of certain SFCs SFC 20 "BLKMOV" In the past, this SFC could be used with CPUs 312 IFM to 318-2 DP to copy data from a non runtime-related DB. SFC 20 no longer has this functionality with the Technology CPU SFC 83 "READ_DBL"...
Information for the Changeover to the Technology CPU 9.3 Interrupt events from distributed I/Os while the CPU status is in STOP Interrupt events from distributed I/Os while the CPU status is in STOP Interrupt events from distributed I/Os while the CPU status is in STOP With the new DPV1 functionality (IEC 61158/ EN 50170, volume 2, PROFIBUS), the handling of incoming interrupt events from the distributed I/Os while the CPU status is in STOP has also changed.
Information for the Changeover to the Technology CPU 9.6 Reusing existing hardware configurations • The interface module is also modeled as a separate, virtual slot for some slaves (e.g. CPU as intelligent slave or IM 153) in which case it is assigned to virtual slot 2 with a separate address.
Information for the Changeover to the Technology CPU 9.8 Using consistent data areas in the process image for DP slaves Using consistent data areas in the process image for DP slaves Using consistent data areas in the process image for DP slaves A data area is consistent if it can be read or written to from the operating system as a consistent block.

Information for the Changeover to the Technology CPU 9.12 Information about interface X3 DP(DRIVE) No diagnosis on DP(DRIVE) Remember that you cannot evaluate diagnostic data from DP(DRIVE) in your STEP 7 user program if you are using the Technology CPU. However, with your PC/PG connected to PROFIBUS DP, you can use the "routing"...

Glossary Activation/deactivation of slaves You activate a DP slave with the SFC 12 "D_ACT_DP" and therefore include it in the cyclic processing. Deactivating a slave removes the DP slave from the cyclic processing. Address An address represents the identifier of a specific address or address range. Examples: input I 12.1;...

Glossary Cold restart On CPU startup (e.g. after it is switched from STOP to RUN via the mode selector or with POWER ON), OB100 (restart) is initially executed, prior to cyclic program execution (OB1). On restart, the input process image is read in and the STEP 7 user program is executed, starting at the first command in OB1.

Glossary Diagnostics System diagnostics Diagnostics buffer The diagnostics buffer is a buffered memory area in the CPU. It stores diagnostic events in the order of their occurrence. DP (drive) PROFIBUS interface that is controlled by the integrated technology of the CPU isochronously (and therefore also equidistant).

Glossary Execution level Execution levels form the interface between the operating system of the CPU and the user program. The sequence for executing the blocks of the user program is specified in the execution levels. Flag Flags are part of the CPU's system memory. They store intermediate results of calculations. They can be accessed in bit, byte, word or double word operations.

Glossary Global data Global data can be addressed from any code block (FC, FB, OB). These include flag F, inputs I, outputs Q, timers, counters and data blocks DB. Global data can be accessed either absolutely or symbolically. Global data communication Global data communication is a method of transferring global data between CPUs (without CFBs).

Glossary Local data Data, temporary Master When a master is in possession of the token, it can send data to other nodes and request data from other nodes (= active node). Micro memory card (MMC) Micro memory cards are memory media for CPUs and CPs. The difference to the memory card is the smaller size.

Glossary Parameter 1. Variable of a STEP 7 code block 2. Variable for setting the response of a module (one or several per module). As delivered, each module has an appropriate default setting that can be changed via configuration in STEP 7.
Page 118
Glossary Retentive address areas A memory area is considered retentive if its contents are retained even after a power loss and transitions from STOP to RUN. The non-retentive area of the flags, timers and counters is reset following a power failure and a transition from the STOP mode to the RUN mode. Retentive can be the: •...

Glossary Signal module Signal modules (SMs) form the interface between the process and the automation system. There are digital input and output modules (input/output module, digital) and analog input and output modules (input/output module, analog). Signal status list The system status list contains data that describes the current status of an S7-300. You can always use this list to obtain an overview of: •...

Glossary System memory System memory is an integrated RAM memory in the CPU. System memory contains the address areas (e.g. timers, counters, flags) and data areas that are required internally by the operating system (for example, communication buffers). Technology configuration data STEP 7 The configuration that you have created with is stored in the technology...

Glossary User program In SIMATIC, a distinction is made between the operating system of the CPU and user programs. The latter are created by the STEP 7 programming software in the available programming languages (ladder logic and statement list) and are stored in code blocks. Data is stored in data blocks.
