ibaBM-SLM
In brief
I Busmonitor for Siemens frequency converters
connected with a SIMOLINK bus
I Supported Siemens systems:
SIMOVERT Masterdrive MC,
SIMOREG 6RA70 (DC drive),
S7-400 FM: FM458 SIMOLINK Master,
M7 Motion Control System
I Easy configuration and data recording with ibaPDA-V6
I 2x uni-directional FO connections to the ibaPDA
system (3.3 MBit/s), e. g. via ibaFOB-4i board
I Transfer of up to 128 analog (data type INT or DINT)
plus 128 binary signals. Each fiber-optic connection
can transmit 64 Float and 64 binary signals.
I Uninterrupted operation of the SIMOLINK bus
due to buffered power
I Rugged design, easy mounting
Properties
The ibaBM-SLM device can be used to capture data from
one or more Siemens frequency converters, which are
connected via a SIMOLINK bus. The data captured with
ibaPDA provide the basis for fast identication of errors
from frequency converters and motor control optimization.
Data capturing with ibaPDA-V6
ibaBM-SLM is connected to the ibaPDA PC via two unidirectional ber optic links. The integrated ibaFOB-D card
converts the data. Each ber-optic connection can transmit up to 64 analog and 64 binary signals. Additional optional iba data capturing devices can be connected to the free
FO inputs of the ibaFOB card.
The data are captured on the ber-optic link synchronous
to the SIMOLINK bus cycle. A notebook running ibaPDA
can be used in parallel.
The data to be measured are selected and congured with
ibaPDA-V6. The ibaPDA computer or the notebook PC
must be connected to ibaBM-SLM via a serial cable in order to transmit conguration data before measuring. This
connection is not required during measurement.
The SIMOLINK bus
All SIMOLINK participants are connected in a closed ber
optic ring topology, operating at 11 Mbps. A Siemens
SIMOLINK Board is integrated in the ibaBM-SLM device to
physically couple it to the SIMOLINK bus. The module supports uninterrupted operation of the SIMOLINK bus, even
when the local ibaBM-SLM CPU fails.
The master can read and write all slave telegrams. All the
other participants are slaves, which can read all telegrams
and write up to 8 own telegrams.
Data types
The following data types may be measured:
I 16 bit integer (INTLOW and INTHIGH: -LOW indicates
lower word, -HIGH indicates upper word of 32-bit data
word)
I 32 bit integer (DINT)
I bit; via ibaPDA packed binary input through bit selection
from 16-bit status words
Each data type corresponds to a measuring value. Up to
128 analog (INT16; DINT) and 128 packed binary signals
per ibaBM-SLM device can be transmitted to ibaPDA.
Note: The SIMOLINK bus technology is discontinued by Siemens since August 2011.
Hence, the device ibaBM-SLM is available only as spare part.
