must always be given priority. If a warning note with a warning triangle warns of
personal injury, the same warning note can also contain a warning of material
damage.
Startup and operation of the device / equipment / system in question must only
be performed using this documentation. Only qualified personnel should be
allowed to commission and operate the device/system. Qualified persons are
defined as persons who are authorized to commission, to ground, and to tag
circuits, equipment, and systems in accordance with established safety practices and standards.
Please note the following:
Warning
!
The equipment may only be used for single purpose applications explicitly
described in the catalog and in the technical description and it may only be
used along with third-party devices and components recommended by
Siemens. To ensure trouble-free and safe operation of the product, it must be
transported, stored and installed as intended and maintained and operated with
care.
Should it be necessary to test or take measurements on live equipment, then
the specifications and procedures defined in Accident Prevention Regulation of
the Berufsgenossenschaft BGV A3 (German employer’s liability insurance association) must be adhered to, in particular § 8 “Permissible deviations when
working with live components”. Suitable electric tools should be used.
Danger
Operating electrical equipment has parts and components that are at
hazardous voltage levels.
After disconnecting all the supply voltages, a hazardous voltage will be present
in the DC link of all SIMODRIVE modules for another 5 minutes!
See Operating Guide
Danger
Repairs to devices that have been supplied by our company must only be
carried out by SIEMENS Customer Service or by repair centers
authorized by SIEMENS. When replacing parts or components, only use
those parts that are included in the spare parts list.
Before opening the equipment, always ensure that the power is off.
EMERGENCY STOP devices complying with EN 60204 (VDE 0113 Part 1)
must remain effective in all automation equipment modes. Resetting the
EMERGENCY STOP device must not cause an uncontrolled or undefined
restart.
Anywhere in the automation equipment where faults might cause major
material damage or even physical injury, in other words, where faults could
be dangerous, additional external precautions must be taken, or facilities
must be provided, that guarantee or enforce a safe operational state, even
when there is a fault (e.g. using an independent limit value switch,
mechanical interlocks etc.).
Warning
!
Connecting cables and signal lines should be installed so that inductive and
capacitive interference does not in any way impair the automation functions.
Warning
The modules contain electrostatically sensitive devices. Discharge yourself of
electrostatic energy before touching the components. The easiest way to do
this is to touch a conductive, grounded object immediately beforehand (for
example, bare metal parts of control cabinet or the protective ground contact of
a socket outlet).
The NCU can communicate with the peripheral components via numerous interfaces. These are shown in Fig. 1-2 with their connections to the NCU and explained in more detail in Table 1-1:
If additional SIMODRIVE monitoring modules are used, they must be switched
at the same time as the infeed unit. In a multi-tier configuration, all the infeed
supply units must be connected simultaneously.
For cable, see
Reference: Catalog NC 60, MOTION-CONNECT cables and
When standard PC keyboards are used, ensure that they have a CE symbol
and correspond to industrial requirements. Otherwise, there may be problems
with the PC keyboard.
If you encounter problems, contact the relevant regional office.
The controller is tested for compliance with the environmental conditions specified below. Fault-free operation is only ensured if:
These environmental conditions are maintained when storing, transporting
and operating the equipment,
Original components and spare parts are used. This applies in particular to
the use of specified cables and plug connectors,
The equipment has been correctly mounted/installed.
Danger
The equipment may not be commissioned until it has been clearly identified
that the machine in which the controller is installed is in full conformance with
the specifications in EC Machinery Directive 98/37/EC.
The connection conditions must be carefully maintained for the complete system. Please contact your local Siemens office or representative for any assistance.
The DC power supply is always referenced to ground and must be
generated by a safety transformer.
User interfaces must be powered via a DC power supply with safe isolation
to EN 61800–5–1.
In the case of supply cables > 10 m, protective elements must be fitted at
the device input in order to protect against lightning (surge voltage).
The DC power supply must be connected to the ground/shield of the NC for
EMC and/or functional reasons. For EMC reasons, this connection should
only be made at one point. As a rule, the connection is provided as
standard in the S7-300 I/Os. If this is not the case in exceptional
circumstances, the ground connection should be made to the grounding rail
of the NC cabinet; also refer to /EMC/ EMC Configuration Guideline.

interfaces (UI)
Interfaces for
servicing, startup
and maintenance
!
!
UIs are all the interfaces that are freely accessible to the machine operator without the need for tools or aids. These user interfaces are designed with safe
isolation to EN 61800–5–1.
Danger
The interfaces for servicing, start-up and maintenance purposes are provided
without safe isolation.
If necessary, these interfaces can be isolated safely using a supplementary
adapter (insulation voltage 230 V AC). Although these adapters are not included
in the Siemens scope of delivery, you can buy these parts from your local
dealer, who will be happy to advise you.
Danger
Safe isolation can only be ensured if the system configuration specified below
is strictly adhered to. When mounting additional components (e.g., S7-300 FM,
IP) with a UI, please make sure that the UI has basic insulation for at least
230 V AC.
Fig. 2-1 shows the various electrical potentials of the 840D/611D/S7-300 system. Legend:
1. Floating power supply of the SIMODRIVE electronics unit with
230 V AC basic insulation.
2. Floating transistor triggers for the three-phase rectifier bridge with 230 V AC
basic insulation.
3. Floating transistor triggers for each axis of the three-phase inverter bridge
with 230 V AC basic insulation.
4. Floating signal connection from the NCU to the PCU or HHU with 230 V AC
basic insulation.
5. Non-floating signal connection between NCU and I/O devices.
6. Non-floating end user interface with protective separation for 230 VAC
through interfaces 1 to 4 and 7.
7. Protectively separated 5 V DC power supply, fed from a protectively separated 24 V DC supply.
8. 24 V DC power supply unit for external devices and for the machine adaptation control according to applicable standards in the form of a PELV (Protective Extra Low Voltage) circuit featuring safe isolation.
9. Floating interfaces to the machine (not accessible to the end user).
10. Floating signal interfaces directly accessible to the end user (e.g., V.24). For
these interfaces, you must always make sure that there is either safe isolation with respect to the line supply voltage or that there are two basic insulation levels, for 230 V AC each.
11. 5 V DC power supply with basic insulation, fed from a safely-isolated
24 V DC supply.
The SINUMERIK 840D system consists of a number of individual components,
each of which must comply with the appropriate EMC and safety standards. The
individual system components are:
NCU box
Machine control panel MCP
Keyboard
Operator panels (operator panel front + PCU/TCU)
NCU terminal block
Distributor box and handheld unit
S7-300 I/O with IM 361 interface module
Single I/O module
The NCU box is a 50 mm wide cassette that is integrated into the infeed/regenerative feedback (I/RF) unit, FSD and MSD.
The individual modules are attached to a metal cabinet panel by means of
screws. Make sure that near the screws a low-impedance contact of the NCU
box with the cabinet wall can be made. Insulating paints at the contact point
must be removed. The electronic grounding points of the modules are interconnected via the device and drive bus and at the same time conducted to the
X131 terminal of the I/RF module.
The ground and module ground M should be connected at the power supply
terminal of the IM 361. Further, for the EFP, “SHIELD” and “M24” must be connected in connector X1.
In addition to the protective grounding of system components, special precautions must be taken to ensure safe, fault-free operation of the system. These
measures include shielded signal cables, special equipotential bonding, isolation, and shielding measures.
Shielded
signal cables
To ensure safe, interference-free operation of the installation, it is essential to
use the cables specified in the individual diagrams.
For digital signal transmission, the shield must have a conductive connection at
both sides of the housing.
Exception:
Standard shielded cables grounded on only one side can be used for devices
from other manufacturers (printers, programming devices, etc.).
These external devices may not be connected to the control during normal operation. However, if the system cannot be operated without them, then the cable
shields must be connected at both ends. Furthermore, the external device must
be connected to the control via an equipotential bonding cable.
Cable definitions
Rules for routing
cables
Definition:
Signal cables (example)
– Data cables (MPI, sensor cables, etc.)
– Binary inputs and outputs
– EMERGENCY OFF lines
Load cables (example)
– Low-voltage supply cables (230 V AC, +24 V DC etc.)
– Supply cables to contactors (primary and secondary circuit)
In order to achieve the best possible noise immunity of the complete system
(control, power module, machine), the following EMC measures must be carefully observed:
Signal cables and load cables must be routed at the greatest possible dis-
tance from one another.
If necessary, signal and load cables may cross one another (if possible, at
an angle of 90°), but must never be laid close or parallel to one another.
Only cables provided by the manufacturer should be used as signal cables
from and to the NCU.
Signal cables may not be routed close to strong external magnetic fields
(e.g. motors and transformers).
Pulse-carrying HC/HV cables must always be laid completely separately
from all other cables.
If signal lines cannot be routed a sufficient distance away from other cables,
they must be installed in grounded cable ducts (metal).
The clearance (interference injection area) between the following lines must
be kept to a minimum:
– Signal line and electrical circuit signal line (twisted)
– Signal line and associated equipotential bonding conductor
– Equipotential bonding conductor and PE conductor (routed together)

The following devices can be interconnected across the MPI bus:
NCU
PCU
HT 6
HHU
MSTT/MCP
The MPI interconnecting cables are available in different lengths.
When installing a network, observe the following basic rules:
1. The MPI connection can be routed from one user to the next by plugging the
MPI connector of the outgoing cable onto the MPI connector of the incoming
cable.
2. The bus line must be terminated at both ends. To do this, enable the terminating resistor in the MPI connector of the first and last node and disable the
remaining terminating resistors (see Fig. 2-3).
Note
Only two inserted terminating resistors are permitted.
In the case of the HHU/HT 6, bus terminating resistors are permanently
integrated in the device.
3. At least 1 terminal must be supplied with 5 V.
This is done by connecting an MPI connector with the terminating resistor
connected to an energized device.
Note
The NCU must be located at the end of the connection.
4. Drop cables (feeder cable from bus segment to node) should be as short as
possible.
Note
Unused spurs must be removed.
5. Every MPI node must first be connected and then activated.
When disconnecting an MPI node, first deactivate the connection and then
remove the connector.
6. A maximum of two of the HHU and HT 6 components can be connected for
each bus segment.
7. The following cable lengths for MPI or OPI for standard use without repeater

Another possibility is two identical components, provided they have different
node addresses.
For setting the addresses (also see corresponding component section):
– HHU: Via DIP switch or display (see “Handheld unit” section),
– For HT 6, by adapting the address before commissioning (refer to Oper-
ating Components “Handheld Terminal HT 6”).
No bus terminating resistors may be inserted at the distributor boxes of an
HHU or HT 6 (refer to the note on item 2.)
If required, more than one HHU/HT 6 can be connected to a bus segment
using intermediate repeaters.
may not be exceeded:
