5.1 Introduction
5.1.1 SLG with RS 232 Serial Interface
Application
area
Design and
functions
The SLG with the RS 232 serial interface represents the communication interface between practically any superordinate computer systems/PCs and the
mobile data storage unit (MDS).
In accordance with customer-specific requirements, the following variants
are available:
S SLG D10 ANT D5
S SLG D11 ANT D5
S SLG D12
A robust housing and the high degree of protection (IP65) permit deployment
in the most severe industrial environments.
The SLG is connected via a serial interface (RS 232) of the PC, which permits communication with PCs or external PLCs. Commands and the data to
be written or read are converted via a modulator/demodulator circuit.
The amount of data that can be transferred between SLG and MDS depends
on the following factors.
S The speed at which the MDS moves through the SLG’s transmission win-
dow (antenna)
S The length of the transmission window
Use of the C++ library permits the SLG to be programmed quickly using applications under Windows 9x/2000 and NT 4.0.

Programming of
the SLG D 10, SLG
D 11, and SLG D 12
Communication at the serial interface between the SLG and the superordinate
computer system (host) takes place by means of an asynchronous 8-bit binary
protocol. The frames are secured by means of a CRC 16.
Can be run on PC models as of the Pentium 2 processor with a serial interface and a Windows 9x/2000/NT 4.0 operating system.
The SLG is connected to a serial interface of the computer. Users work with
the PC interfaces COM 1 and/or COM 2; 8 interfaces can be run with additional hardware.
A 32-bit library (MDWAPI for Windows 9x/2000 and NT 4.0) and a programming guide are available to the user for programming (Software MOBY
CD).
For computers that do not run under Windows (e.g. UNIX), the communication specification is described in the programming guide (MDWAPI).
Parameter defaults
The configuration parameters are described in the programming guide
(MDWAPI).

Note
on MOBY software and licensing
When you purchase an ASM or SLG interface module, this does not include
software or documentation. The“Software MOBY” CD-ROM, which contains all the available FBs/FCs for SIMATIC, C libraries for Windows, demo
programs, etc., can be ordered additionally.
The CD-ROM also includes the complete set of MOBY documentation (German, English, and in some cases French) in PDF format. When you purchase
an ASM or SLG interface module, the price for use of the software including
documentation on the ”Software MOBY” CD-ROM is included. The purchaser obtains the right to make copies (duplication license) as needed for
customer applications or system development for the plant.
The enclosed contract also applies to the use of software products for a
one-off charge.

5.1.2 SLG with RS 422 for SIMATIC S7 and PROFIBUS-DPV1
Application area
Design and functions
The SLG D1xS provides inductive communication with the mobile data storage units (MDSs) and the serial link to the interface modules (ASMs).
Various SLGs – for short, medium, and long distances to the MDS – are available to meet customer requirements.
S SLG D10S ANT D5
S SLG D11S ANT D5
S SLG D12S
A robust housing and the high degree of protection (IP65) permit deployment
in the most severe industrial environments.
The SLG executes commands received from the interface module. These
commands and the data to be read or written are converted via an appropriate
modulator/demodulator circuit.
Communication between MDS and the SLG takes place via inductive alternating fields.
The amount of data that can be transferred between SLG and MDS depends
on the following factors.
S The speed at which the MDS moves through the transmission window of
the SLG’s antenna
S The length of the transmission window
S The MDS type

5.1.3 Troubleshooting
What should you
do if nothing
works?
1. Check the supply voltage directly on the SLG connector using a measuring instrument.
2. Check the cabling to the PC
– Do the SLG and PC have the same physical interface?
– Is the polarity of the connecting cable correct (RS 232)?
– Is the cable shield applied correctly?
(RxD of the SLG must be connected to TxD of the PC and vice versa)
Error messages
SLG range too low
Error messages are described in the programming guide (MDWAPI).
If the SLG range is too low, check:
– The power supply unit/switched-mode power supply unit (see Sec-
tion 3.4 on electrical interference)
– Whether there are monitors or other sources of interference in the vi-
cinity (see Section 3.4)
– Whether there is metal in the immediate vicinity (see Section 3.3)
– To attain optimal read/write distances for the ANT D 5, a metal plate
is required at a distance of 100 mm (see Table 3-8 and 3-9).
