Introducing the S7-200 Text Display (TD) Devices Your S7-200 TD device is a 2- or 4-line text display device that can be connected to the S7-200 CPU. The TD device allows you to view, monitor, and change the process variables pertaining to your application.
Page 14
Figure 1-1 Text Display (TD) Devices The TD devices receive power from the S7-200 CPU through the TD/CPU cable. The TD 200, TD 200C and TD400C devices can also receive power from a separate power supply.
Page 15
Each TD device functions as a network master when it is connected over a network that contains one or more S7-200 CPUs. The TD device is also designed to operate with other masters in a network. Multiple TD devices can be used with one or more S7-200 CPUs connected to the same network.
The TD device allows you to define a variable as a word, double word, or real ● Forcing or unforcing I/O points: You can force individual I/O points in the S7-200 CPU to be on or off (TD 200C, TD 200, and TD400C only) ●...

Product Overview 1.3 Features of the Text Display (TD) Devices ● Latin 2 (with Boldface) ● Turkish (Latin 5) The TD devices provide system menus and prompts in six languages: English, German, French, Spanish, Italian, and Simplified Chinese. In the TD 100C, all fonts except Simplified Chinese are available in two sizes: 12 and 16 characters per row.

Page 20
● Screens: You can create screens that allow the operator (using the TD device) to initiate the interaction with the S7-200 CPU. With the TD device, you can configure a user menu (up to 8 entries or groups for the TD 200C, TD 200, and TD400C, and up to 4 entries or groups for the TD 100C) that provides a hierarchy for the screens.
Page 21
The TD device continuously polls the alarm bits to determine which alarms have been enabled. To display an alarm on the TD device, your user program in the S7-200 CPU must first set the alarm bit for the specific alarm. When your user program sets one of the alarm bits, the TD device then reads the alarm bits in the parameter block in the S7-200 CPU and displays the corresponding alarm message.
Product Overview 1.6 Installation and Configuration Tasks Figure 1-3 Screens and Alarms Installation and Configuration Tasks Installation and Configuration Tasks As shown in Figure 1-4, you use the Text Display wizard of STEP 7-Micro/WIN to configure the TD device. You can create a custom faceplate for the TD 100C, TD 200C, and TD400C. The Keypad Designer creates a keypad configuration file for the Text Display wizard.

TD device, see Chapter 5. If you require a longer cable (>2.5 m) to connect the TD device to the S7-200 CPU, use PROFIBUS components for the network connection. Refer to the SINEC IK10 Catalog.
Supplying Power for the TD Device The S7-200 CPU uses the TD/CPU cable to provide power to the TD device. Use this type of power supply when the distance between the TD device and the S7-200 CPU is less than 2.5 m (the length of the TD/CPU cable).
The TD devices ship with a default configuration and are set to communicate at a rate of 9600 baud. The TD devices must communicate with the S7-200 CPU to be able to read the parameter block. You must configure your TD device to communicate at the same baud rate as your S7-200 CPU.

Operating Your Text Display (TD) Device 5.5 Viewing the Screens and the Alarms Figure 5-8 TD 100C - Navigating between the Default and Secondary Displays Displaying the Alarms If you created both screens and alarms when you configured the TD device, the main menu of the TD device includes a command that allows you to access the secondary (non-default) display.
Page 113
After reading a new alarm from the S7-200 CPU, the TD device sorts the alarms again to display the highest priority alarms at the top of the list. The TD device determines the priority based on the sequence of the alarms in the parameter block: ●...
Page 114
Another alarm cannot replace the one flashing until the operator acknowledges the flashing alarm. This is also true even if a higher priority alarm is enabled in the S7-200 CPU. If the TD device is configured for single line alarms and the CPU enables a higher priority alarm, the flashing alarm shifts down to the next line of the display.
Page 115
When the alarm is enabled in the S7-200 CPU, the TD device notes this and, if there is space available on the display, reads the alarm from the CPU. The TD device then displays the alarm and causes the entire alarm to flash to notify the operator that the alarm is present and must be acknowledged.

Performing Typical or Routine Operator Tasks The Operator Menu allows you to perform the following tasks: ● Determining the model and version of the S7-200 CPU (CPU Status) ● Viewing the error messages generated by the S7-200 CPU (CPU Status)
Page 120
Press the UP or DOWN arrows to display the error messages that were generated by the S7-200 CPU. The TD device displays an error message only if an error exists in the S7-200 CPU. The CPU classifies errors as either fatal errors or non-fatal errors.
Page 121
Setting Time and Date in the S7-200 CPU You can use the TD device to change the time-of-day settings in the S7-200 CPU. This allows an operator to easily adjust for time changes. The TD device does not maintain time and date settings. In order to display the time and date values, the TD device reads the current time and date from the S7-200 CPU and displays these values.
Page 122
5.6 Performing Typical or Routine Operator Tasks If the TD device was not configured to allow changes to the time or if the S7-200 CPU does not support the TOD clock, the Set Time and Date command does not appear on the Operator Menu.

TD device, such as network addresses, address of the parameter block (stored in V memory of the S7-200 CPU), baud rate, and other communication parameters. ● Setting the network address for the TD device: Use the UP or DOWN arrow to set the network address (default address = 1).
Page 126
Use the UP or DOWN arrow to select the baud rate. The baud rate must match the baud rate of the S7-200 CPU and any other device on the same network. ● Setting the Highest Station: Changes the highest station address for the TD device. This setting tells the TD device which network addresses to check when looking for other network master devices.

In this example: ● TD 200 Number 1 is configured to communicate to the S7-200 CPU at address 2 (CPU 1) ● TD 200 Number 2 is configured to communicate to the S7-200 CPU at address 3 (CPU 2) You can connect multiple TD devices to a single S7-200 CPU.
Network connectors are available from Siemens. Using these connectors allows you to isolate the CPUs from one another (the 24 VDC), but still allows you to power the TD device from the CPU. See the SIMATIC S7-200 Programmable Controller System Manual for more information about using network connectors.
Sample Network with Repeaters Selecting the Network Cable Selecting the Network Cable S7-200 networks use the RS-485 standard on twisted pair cables. Table B-2 lists the specifications for the network cable. You can connect up to 32 devices on a network segment.
Building a TD/CPU Cable Building a TD/CPU Cable The TD/CPU cable is used for connecting a display device to an S7-200 CPU. If you do not have a TD/CPU cable, refer to Figures B-4 and B-5 to create your own cable.

● When you connect CPUs with different ground potentials to the same PPI network, you should use an isolated RS-485 repeater. ● S7-200 products include isolation boundaries at certain points to help prevent unwanted current flows in your installation. When you plan your installation, you should consider where these isolation boundaries are provided, and where they are not provided.
