Drive systems
SINAMICS S120 built-in devices
Control Units
BICO technology
Every drive object contains a large number of input and output
variables which can be freely and independently interconnected
using Binector Connector Technology (BICO). A binector is a lo-
gic signal which can assume the value 0 or 1. A connector is a
numerical value, e.g. the actual speed or current setpoint.
Drive Control Chart (DCC)
DCC Drive Control Chart for SINAMICS S120 for simple, graphi-
cal configuration of control, logic and calculation functions at the
drive level.
It expands the possibilities for easy configuring of technology
functions for the SIMOTION Motion Control system as well as for
the SINAMICS S120 drive system.
The user-friendly DCC editor supports easy graphical configura-
tion and a clear presentation of control loop structures.
The associated block library contains a large choice of closed-
loop control, calculation and logic modules as well as more com-
plex open-loop and closed-loop control functions.
Drive Control Chart for SINAMICS S120 therefore provides a
convenient basis for resolving drive-level open-loop and closed-
loop control tasks directly in the converter.
Function module
The basic positioner EPos can be called on all SINAMICS S120
Control Units as an additionally activatable function module. The
basic positioner can be used to resolve basic Motion Control
tasks without additional external technological outlay from the
drive itself.
The
Technology controller
is designed as a PID controller. It is
suitable for implementing controls for regulating variables such
as fill level, temperature, tension, pressure, flow rate and dancer
position.
Integral safety functions (Safety Integrated)
The Control Units support comprehensive safety functions.
The integrated safety functions are the Safety Integrated Basic
Functions
•
STO = Safe Torque Off
•
SBC= Safe Brake Control
•
SS1 = Safe Stop 1
and the Safety Integrated Extended Functions
that require
a license
•
SS2 = Safe Stop 2
•
SOS= Safe Operating Stop
•
SLS = Safely-Limited Speed
•
SSM= Safe Speed Monitor
•
SDI = Safe Direction
•
SLP = Safely-Limited Position
(abbreviations in accordance with IEC 61800-5-2)
If the extended integrated safety functions are used, licenses,
supplementary system components such as TM54F terminal
modules, or suitable safety controls will be necessary.

CompactFlash card
The functions of the SINAMICS S120 drives are stored on a
CompactFlash card. This card contains the firmware and para-
meter settings for all drives in the form of a project. The Com-
pactFlash card can also hold additional projects, which means
that the correct project can be accessed immediately when se-
ries machines of different types are commissioned. When the
Control Unit has booted, the data on the CompactFlash card are
read and loaded to the RAM.
The firmware is organized in objects. Drive objects are used to
implement open-loop and closed-loop control functions for Line
Modules, Motor Modules, Power Modules and other system
components connected by DRIVE-CLiQ.
Diagnostics optimally supported by trace function
The time characteristics of input and output variables associated
with drive objects can be measured by the integrated trace func-
tion and displayed using the STARTER commissioning tool. The
trace can record up to 4 signals simultaneously. A recording can
be triggered dependent on freely selectable boundary condi-
tions, e.g. the value of an input or output variable.
