Introduction – MOBY U
MOBY U is the RF identification system which is especially designed for
long–range applications in industry and logistics. It uses the transmission
frequency in the ISM frequency band of 2.4 GHz in the UHF range (ultra
high frequency). This ISM frequency band is recognized around the world. It
unites the power of innovative HF technologies and, at the same time, ensures continuity at the customer’s by being almost totally compatible with the
proven MOBY I system. Robust housing and power-saving circuiting
technology give you years of maintenance-free operation even under the
most rugged of industrial conditions.
MOBY U covers all transmission ranges up to three meters which means that
it meets the prerequisites for a transparent identification solution in the automotive industry, for instance. It offers the communication distances (much
longer than one meter) required to design optimized working processes and
ensure necessary safety zones during automobile production.
The transmission frequency and the robust modulation not only give you
transmission ranges of several meters but also ensure sufficient distance to
the typical sources of electromagnetic interference in industrial production
plants. With MOBY U, you can forget the old sources of interference such as
welding devices and power switches, pulsed DC drives and switching power
packs and all the time–consuming interference suppression measures which
were needed.
Familiar sources of interference during UHF transmission such as reflection,
interference and over–ranging are handled with appropriate technical measures on the MOBY U. In addition, special coding procedures ensure that
data transmission is correct and data integrity is preserved. Proven methods
and algorithms of mobile radio technology (GSM, UMTS) have been used for
this purpose by the identification system. Specially designed antennas ensure
a homogenous transmission field so that the mobile data memories (MDSs)
are detected reliably even in difficult locations.
2
Conflicts with other users of the 2.4 GHz frequency band are avoided by using very low sending power (less than 50 mV per meter at 3-m intervals) and
automatic selection of free and interference-free frequency channels.
With its 32–Kbyte mobile data memories (MDS U524 and MDS U589 – up
to +220 °C cyclically), MOBY U offers a transparent solution for the automotive industry.
Like the MDSs of MOBY U, UHF transponders with selective read/write
functions always require their own energy (battery) for data communication.
This power–saving circuiting technology guarantees years of maintenance–
free service.

Introduction – MOBY U
Simple and flexible installation of the read/write devices (SLGs) and the mobile data memories (MDSs) in particular are two common requirements of all
assembly and production lines.
The SLG U92 offers easy system integration via coupling to:
Reliable MOBY interface modules (ASMs) for PROFIBUS-DPV1 and
SIMATIC S7
– ASM 452
– ASM 473
– ASM 475
Directly on a standard PC, SICOMP or PC–PLC
Software tools such as SIMATIC S7 functions (FC) and C library MOBY API
for applications under Windows 98/2000/NT make implementation in specific applications easy.
As with the other MOBY identification systems, the MDSs can be operated
with direct byte addressing or with the filehandler.
The convenient and powerful filehandler of MOBY I with its file addressing
is directly integrated on the SLG U92 with expanded functions. The MOVE
and LOAD commands of the MOBY I filehandler are a thing of the past. The
SLG always fetches the file management information it needs directly from
the MDS.
MOBY U can be used in three different ways.
1. For existing system solutions with MOBY I compatibility (no
bunch/multitag)
– MOBY U with standard settings
– Range of up to 1.5 m (fixed setting)
– Byte addressing via absolute addresses
– Filehandler: With unmodified functions and without MOVE and
LOAD commands
2. For existing system solutions with MOBY I compatibility
plus expansions (no bunch/multitag)
– Just a few expanded commands for changing the standard settings and
requesting diagnostic data
– Range up to 3 m (to be limited in increments)
3. Full use of MOBY U performance (with bunch/multitag)

– Commands and/or user data with clear allocation due to the MDS

Introduction – MOBY U
With MOBY U, a service and diagnostic interface is installed directly on the
read/write device (SLG) to make commissioning easier. Not only current
transmission parameters can be analysed here but data communication can
also be logged. Additional statistical functions are available for quantitative
and qualitative evaluation of data communication.
Primary
applications

Configuration and Installation Guidelines
3.1The Fundamentals
MOBY U is a UHF system with powerful features. This makes it much easier
to configure and handle the system.
The range (read/write distance) and communication speed are the same
for all data carriers. However, they do differ in memory size, operational
temperature and lifespan.
Reliable communication due to a homogenous transmission field with
circular polarization in dynamic and static operation. There is no fading
(i.e., temporary ”holes” in the field).
The range (0.15 m to 3 m) permits use throughout production.
The range of the transmission field can be limited (in increments) from
0.5 m to 3 m. This limitation prevents over–ranging and the communication range is clearly specified.
Familiar sources of interference during UHF transmissions such as reflec-
tion and interference have been removed with appropriate technical measures.
Due to the transmission frequency and the robust modulation procedures,
electromagnetic sources of interference can be disregarded.
Simple and flexible installation and customized system integration with
standard hardware and standard function blocks make commissioning fast
and easy.
The robust housing and the power–saving circuiting technology make for
years of maintenance–free operation even under the most rugged of production environments.
Conflicts with other users of the 2.4 GHz frequency band are avoided by
using very low sending power (less than 50 mV per meter at 3-m intervals) and automatic selection of free and interference–free frequency
channels.
Optimum utilization does require adherence to certain criteria.

3.1.1Transmission Window
MOBY U is a UHF system. UHF systems have a relatively wide range despite their low emission power. However, the emission field has a directional
characteristic which depends on the antenna construction. MOBY U has various function zones which depend on direction and distance to keep the
MDS’s power requirements low and to make localization reproducible. The
states and reactions of the affected components vary with the three different
zones of the transmission field (see figure 3-1).

Zone 3:
In simplified terms, zone 3 is the UHF–free area. The MDS is asleep and
only wakes up once every < 0.5 sec to listen for an SLG. Power consumption is very low. If other UHF users are in the vicinity and they are using
the same frequency range, this does not shorten the battery life of the
MDS since it does not wake up until it receives a special code.

3-3
Configuration and Installation Guidelines
Zone 2:
If the MDS receives this special code in the vicinity of an active SLG, it
enters zone 2 (see figure 3-1). Starting immediately it accepts the SLG
and responds briefly with its own ID. However, the SLG ignores all
MDSs which are not in zone 1 (radius can be parameterized on the SLG
in increments). Power consumption in zone 2 is a little higher than in
zone 3.
Zone 1:
When an MDS enters zone 1, it is registered by the SLG and can begin
exchanging data. All read and write functions can now be performed. The
power consumption of the MDS increases briefly during communication.
Since transmission through the air is very fast, total communication time
is very short. The entire 32–Kbyte data memory can be read in less than
four seconds. This means that data communication hardly uses the battery.
As long as the MDS is located in zone 1, it is ready to exchange data
when requested by the SLG. When no command for the MDS is queued,
it still reports at regular parameterizable intervals with its ID when requested by the SLG. Its behavior corresponds to that of zone 2. Current
consumption drops again accordingly.
General
configuration rules
With MOBY U as a UHF system, the following physical characteristics
must be considered when you configure the system.
The waves in the UHF range spread out in straight lines.
The transmission field (zones 1 and 2) is shaped like an ellipse.
The range of the transmission ellipse up to 3 m can be adjusted in incre-
ments for better identification of the MDS.
In simplified terms, the transmission field can be thought of as a cone and
the midpoint of the antenna is located at the peak of this cone. The angle
of opening is approx. 90°. A primarily homogenous field is then assumed
within this parameterized area. Fading (temporary ”holes” in the field) in
this area is offset by technical measures.
Ideally the MDS should penetrate the transmission cone of its basic sur-
face and exit through the surface area so that the MDS remains as long as
possible in the defined recording field.
Since metallic surfaces reflect the waves, they can also be used for shield-
ing or even deflection. Particularly in typical production environments,
the wealth of metallic objects ensures a relatively uniform dispersion of
the transmission waves.
For optimum data communication, metal should be avoided at least in the
vicinity of the vertical waves.

Both the MDS and the SLG can be mounted directly on metal.

3.3.2General
Configuration and Installation Guidelines
Increasing use of electrical and electronic devices creates the following situation.
Increasing density of the components
Increasing power electronics
Increasing switching speeds
Lower power consumption of the components
The more automation, the greater the danger of the devices interfering with
each other.
Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) means the ability of an electrical or
electronic device to function correctly in an electromagnetic environment
without bothering its surroundings up to a certain degree.
EMC can be divided into three areas.
Own interference immunity
Immunity against internal (i.e., own) electrical interference
Free interference immunity
Immunity against outside electromagnetic interference
Degree of interference emission
Interference emission and influence of the electrical environment
All three areas must be considered when checking an electrical device.
The MOBY modules are checked for adherence to certain limit values. Since
the MOBY modules are only part of a total system and sources of interference can be created just by combining different components, the setup of a
plant must adhere to certain guidelines.
EMC measures usually comprise a whole package of measures which must
all be taken to obtain an interference–immune plant.
Note
The constructor of the plant is responsible for adherence to the EMC
guidelines whereas the operator of the plant is responsible for radio interference suppression for the entire system.
All measures taken while the plant is being set up prevent expensive
modifications and removal of interference later on.
Naturally, the country–specific rules and regulations must be adhered to.
They are not part of this documentation.

3.3.3Spreading of Interference
The following three components must be present before interference can occur in a plant.
If one of these components is missing (e.g., the coupling path between interference source and potentially susceptible equipment), the susceptible device
is not affected even when the source is emitting strong interference.
EMC measures affect all three components to prevent malfunctions caused
by interference. When setting up a plant, the constructor must take all possible precautions to prevent the creation of interference.
Only devices which meet limit value class A of VDE 0871 may be used
in a plant.
All interference–producing devices must be corrected. This includes all
coils and windings.
The cabinet must be designed to prevent mutual interference of the indi-
vidual components or keep this as low as possible.
Precautions must be taken to eliminate external interference.
The next few sections give you tips and hints on good plant setup.

Sources of
interference
To obtain a high degree of electromagnetic compatibility and thus a plant
with low interference, you must know the most frequent sources of
interference. These sources of interference must then be removed.

3.3.4Cabinet Layout
User responsibility for the configuration of an interference–immune plant
covers cabinet layout, cable installation, grounding connections and correct
shielding of the cables.
Note
Information on EMC–proof cabinet layout can be taken from the setup
guidelines of the SIMATIC controller.
Configuration and Installation Guidelines
Shielding by
housing
Magnetic and electrical fields as well as electromagnetic waves can be kept
away from susceptible equipment by providing a metallic housing. The better
induced interference current is able to flow, the weaker the interference field
becomes. For this reason all housing plates or plates in the cabinet must be
connected with each other and good conductivity ensured.
Figure 3-4Shielding by the housing
When the plates of the switching cabinet are insulated against each other, this
may create a high–frequency–conducting connection with ribbon cables and
high–frequency terminals or HF conductive paste. The larger the connection
surface, the better the high–frequency conductivity. Connection of simple
wires cannot handle this task.

Configuration and Installation Guidelines
Avoidance of
interference with
optimized layout
Installation of SIMATIC controllers on conductive mounting plates (not
painted) is a good way to get rid of interference. Adhering to the guidelines
when laying out the switching cabinet is a simple way to avoid interference.
Power components (transformers, drives, load power packs) should not be
located in the same room with controller components (relay control parts,
SIMATIC S5).
The following principles apply.
1. The effects of interference decrease the greater the distance between
source of interference and susceptible equipment.
2. Interference can be decreased even more by installing shielding plates.
3. Power lines and high–voltage cables must be installed separately at least
10 cm away from signal lines.

Filtering the
voltage
Power filters can be used to combat external interference over the power
network. In addition to correct dimensioning, proper installation is very
important. It is essential that the power filter be mounted directly on the
cabinet leadin. This keeps interference current from entering the cabinet by
filtering it out from the beginning.

3.3.5Avoiding Sources of Interference
Inclusion of interference sources in a plant must be avoided to achieve a
higher degree of interference immunity. All switched inductivity is frequently a source of interference in plants.
Suppression of
inductivity
Relays, contactors, etc. generate interference voltages which must be
suppressed with one of the following circuits.
24 V coils create up to 800 V even with small relays and 220 V coils generate interference voltages of several kV when the coil is switched. Free wheeling diodes or RC circuits can be used to prevent interference voltage and thus
also inductivity in lines which must be installed parallel to the coil line.

Contactors

Note
All coils in the cabinet must be interference–suppressed. Don’t forget the
valves and motor brakes. A special check must be made for neon lamps in
the switching cabinet.

3.3.6Equipotential Bonding
Differences in potential may be created between the parts of the plant by differing layout of plant parts and differing voltage levels. When the parts of the
plant are connected with signal lines, equalizing currents flow over the signal
lines. These equalizing currents may distort the signals.
This makes it very important to provide correct equipotential bonding.
The cross section of the equipotential bonding line must be large enough
(at least 10 mm2).
The distance between signal cable and equipotential bonding line must be
as short as possible (effects of antenna).
A fine–wire line must be used (better high–frequency conductivity).
When the equipotential bonding lines are connected to the central equipo-
tential bonding rail, power components and non–power components must
be combined.

devices.

3.3.7Shielding the Cables
To suppress interference coupling in the signal cables, these cables must be
shielded.
The best shielding is achieved by installation in steel tubing. However, this is
only required when the signal line has to be led through high interference.
Use of cables with braided shields is usually sufficient. In both cases, correct
connection is decisive for shielding.
Note
A shield which is not connected or is not connected correctly is not a shield.
The following principles apply.
With analog signals, the shield is connected on one side to the receiver
side.
With digital signals, the shield is applied on both sides to the housing.
Since interference signals are frequently in the HF range (> 10 kHz), a
large–surface shield which meets HF requirements is needed.
Figure 3-9Shielding the cables
The shield bar must be connected (over a large surface for good conductivity)
to the switching cabinet housing. It must be located as close as possible to the
cable leadin. The cables are bared and then clamped to the shield bar (high–

3.3.8Basic EMC Rules
Often the adherence to a few elementary rules is sufficient to ensure electromagnetic compatibility (EMC). The following rules should be observed when
setting up the switching cabinet.
Shielding by the
housing
Surface–shaped
grounding
connection
Protect the programmable controller from external interference by instal-
ling it in a cabinet or housing. The cabinet or housing must be included in
the grounding concept.
Shield the programmable controller from electromagnetic fields of induc-
tivity by using divider plates.
Use metallic plug connector cases for shielded data transmission lines.
Connect all inactive metallic parts over a large surface with low ohmic
HF.
Planning the cable
installation
Make a large–surface connection between the inactive metallic parts and
the central grounding point.
Don’t forget to include the shield bar in the grounding concept. This
means that the shield bar itself must be connected over a large surface
with ground.
Do not use aluminum parts for grounding connections.
Divide the cables into groups and install the groups separately.
Always install high–voltage cables and signal lines in separate ducts or
bundles.
Always have the entire cabling enter the cabinet on only one side and at
only one level.
Install the signal lines as close as possible to grounding surfaces.
Twist the ”to” and ”from” conductors of individual cables in pairs.

filters
Configuration and Installation Guidelines
Shield the data transmission cables and apply the shield on both sides.
Shield the analog cables and apply the shield on one side (e.g., on the
drive).
Always apply the cable shields over a large surface on the cabinet leadin
on the shield bar and affix these with clamps.
Continue the applied shield without interruption up to the module.
Use braided shields and not foil shields.
Use only power filters with metal housing.
Connect the filter housing (over a large surface and with low ohmic HF)
to cabinet ground.
Never secure the filter housing on painted surfaces.
Secure the filter on the cabinet’s entry point or in the direction of the
source of interference.

3.4MOBY Shielding Concept
With MOBY U, the data are transferred between ASM and SLG at a speed of
19200, 38400, 57600 or 115200 Baud over an RS 422 interface. The distance
between ASM and SLG can be up to 1000 m. With respect to cabling,
MOBY should be handled like a data processing system. Special attention
should be paid to shield installation for all data cables. The following figures
shows the primary factors needed for a reliable setup.
3.4.1SLG Cable between ASM 475 and SLG U92 with RS 422
Layout of an
S7–300 with MOBY
When the SLG U92 is connected to the ASM 475, it is essential to use a
shield connection terminal for the cable shield. Shield connection terminals
and holder brackets are standard components of the S7–300 product family.

3.5SLG Cable and Plug Connector Allocations (RS 422)
The jacket used for MOBY SLG connection cables is made of polyurethane
(PUR in acc. w. VDE 0250). This gives the cables very good resistance to oil,
acid, lye and hydraulic fluid.
3.5.1Cable Configuration
The cable between ASM and SLG has six cores plus shield. Four of these
cores are allocated to the serial data interface. The power supply of the SLG
requires two cores. Regardless of the wire diameter, data can usually be
transmitted up to a distance of 1000 m.
The voltage on the connection cable drops due to the power consumption of
the SLG. For this reason, the permitted cable length is usually shorter than
1000 m. It depends on the current consumption of the SLG and the ohmic
resistance of the connection cable. The following table gives you an overview of the permitted cable lengths.

4.1Introduction
Application area
Construction and
functions
MOBY identifica tion system s ensure that a product is ac com panie d by
meaningful da ta from the be ginning to the end.
First, mobile data memories are affixed to the product or its carrier or its
packaging, then conductively written, changed and read. All information on
production and material flow control is located right on the product. Its
robust construction permits use in rugged environments and makes the MDS
insensitive to many chemical substances.
The primary com ponents of mobil e da ta mem ories (MDSs) are logic, an
antenna, a data memory and a battery.
To keep the MDS’s power consumption low and make localization
reproducible, MOBY U has different function zones based on direction and
distance. The three different zones of the transmission field (see figure 4-1)
represent different states and reactions of the affected components.

Zone 3:
In simplified terms, zone 3 is the UHF–free area. The MDS is asleep and
only wakes up to listen for an SLG once every < 0.5 sec. Power consumption is very low. If other UHF users are in the vicinity and they are using
the same frequency range, this does not shorten the battery life of the
MDS since it does not wake up until it receives a special code.
Zone 2:
If the MDS receives this special code in the vicinity of an active SLG, it
enters zone 2 (see figure 4-1). Starting immediately it accepts the SLG
and responds briefly with its own ID. However, the SLG ignores all
MDSs which are not in zone 1 (radius can be parameterized on the SLG
in increments). Power consumption in zone 2 is a little higher than in
zone 3.
Zone 1:
When an MDS enters zone 1, it is registered by the SLG and can begin
exchanging data. All read and write functions can now be performed. The
power consumption of the MDS increases briefly during communication.
Since transmission through the air is very fast, total communication time
is very short. The entire 32–Kbyte data memory can be read in less than
four seconds. This means that data communication hardly uses the battery.
As long as the MDS is located in zone 1, it is ready to exchange data
when requested by the SLG. When no command for the MDS is queued,
it still reports at regular parameterizable intervals with its ID (sleep–time,
similar to t–ABTAST with MOBY I) when requested by the SLG. Its
behavior corresponds to that of zone 2. Current consumption drops again
accordingly.

4.2MDS U313
The MDS U313 is a mobile data memory (MDS) with a storage capacity of 2
Kbytes for use in transportation and logistics. The particularly low current
consumption guarantees a long life of 5 years. The interference–immune and
robust MDS can be read and written at a maximum distance of 3 m. The
MDS U313 is addressed directly with byte memory accesses. The transmission frequency in the ISM frequency band at 2.4 GHz makes the MDS’s net
data transmission speed very fast (up to 16 Kbyte/sec without multitaging
and up to 8 Kbyte/sec with multitaging of two MDSs).

5.1SLG U92
Application area
Setup and
functions
The MOBY U identification system was designed especially for applications
in automotive production, logistics and similar where high demands are
placed on interference immunity, long read/write distances with moving data
memories, quick and reliable data transmission, easy installation, and reliable
function even in rugged environments. It uses the ISM frequency band of 2.4
GHz (familiar world–wide). Its emission strength is way below the values
recommended by well–known health authorities from all over the world.
MOBY U covers a transmission range of up to three meters and thus provides the prerequisites for a transparent identification solution. The SLG is
available for every situation with 2 interface versions.
The primary application areas for MOBY U are listed below.
Main assembly lines of the automotive industry (raw product manufactur-
ing, surface treatment and assembly)
Vehicle identification/entry check for moving companies, vehicle parks,
and so on
Container/pallet identification for transportation logistics and distribution
Traffic control technology
Assembly lines
The SLG U92 handles the commands received from the interface or PC/PLC.
The commands with the data to be read or written are converted into
appropriate communication commands via the HF interface between SLG
and MDS. The amount of data that can be transferred between SLG and MDS
depends on the following factors.
5-2
The speed at which the MDS moves through the SLG’s transmission win-
dow
The length of the transmission window
The number of MDSs in the transmission window (bunch/multitag)
The time during which the MDS is ready for communication (depends on
sleep time and standby time)
The SLG U92 is available in two hardware versions for connection to different systems.
System interface with RS 232
for serial connection to any system
(PC/PLC/communications processors)
System interface with RS 422
for serial connection to MOBY interfaces (ASM 475, ASM 473, ASM
452) for integration in SIMATIC S7 or PROFIBUS or any system (PC/
PLC/communications processors)
MOBY U – Manual for Configuration, Installation and Service
(4) J31069-D0139-U001-A2-7618
Read/Write Devices
Except for the system interface, the hardware and firmware of both hardware
versions are identical.
Software tools such as SIMATIC S7 functions (FC 45/FC 46)
and the MOBY API library for applications under Windows 98/NT/2000
make implementation in specific applications easy.
The integrated file management system (compatible with the familiar MOBY
I filehandler and supplemented with multitag commands) ensures simple,
convenient administration of data on the mobile data memories.
The SLG U92 works with a transmission frequency in the ISM band between
2.4 and 2.4835 GHz. This makes transmission distances of up to three meters
possible with a very low sending strength (less than 50 mV per meter at
3-m intervals) and high net transmission speeds of up to 16 Kbyte/sec. By
selection of the transmission frequency, use of robust modulation procedures
and appropriate check routines, sources of electromagnetic interference can
be disregarded and you are still assured of correct data transmission and integrity. MOBY U technology eliminates familiar interference during UHF
transmissions such as reflection, interference and overranging. Specially designed antennas ensure a homogenous transmission field in which mobile
data memories (MDSs) are always (100%) detected. This means expensive
shielding and antenna directing can be omitted. The antenna field of the SLG
can be activated and deactivated for communication with an MDS with a
function call or automatically by triggering a digital input. There are two
ways to manage the data on the mobile data memory.
Byte addressing via absolute addresses (start address, length)
Conveniently with a file management system (compatible with the
MOBY I filehandler)
When the filehandler is used, the MOBY U read/write device always fetches
its file management information directly from the MDS.
The SLG U92 can be run at three levels.
1. MOBY U can be used for existing system solutions with MOBY I with
standard settings, unchanged filehandler functions but without the MOVE
and LOAD commands which used to be required.
2. Only a few extra commands are required for changes in the standard
settings and requesting diagnostic data.
3. Utilization of all features including multitaging. At this level, the
commands and/or user data can also be clearly related to the MDS
number.
Two LEDs show the current status (e.g., communication) and make commissioning easier.

Read/Write Devices
A separate service and diagnostic interface (RS 232) is available for easy
commissioning and diagnosis later during regular operation. In addition, the
service function ”load software to SLG” can be used to load future function
expansions via this interface without having to exchange the SLG in existing
applications.

6.1Introduction
Application area
The ASM interfaces are the link between the MOBY U components
(SLGs/MDSs) and the high–level controllers (e.g., SIMATIC S7) or PCs or
computers. Depending on the interface used, up to two SLGs can be
connected.
Setup and
functions
An ASM consists of a microcontroller system with its own program (PROM).
The CPU receives the commands over the user interface and stores these in
the RAM. The user receives an acknowledgment that the command has
arrived. If the command is okay, the CPU begins executing it.

6.2ASM 452
Interfaces
Application area
The ASM 452 interface is a MOBY module for use with MOBY components
via PROFIBUS–DPV1 on the following devices.
All computers and PCs
All controllers
When the interfaces are used with a SIMATIC S7, function blocks are available to the user.
Figure 6-1Interface ASM 452
The ASM 452 represents the further development of the familiar 450/451
interface modules. By using non–cyclic data communication on PROFIBUS–
DPV1, even the most extensive PROFIBUS configurations have optimum
data throughput. The minimum cyclic data load of the ASM 452 on PROFIBUS guarantees the user that other PROFIBUS stations (e.g., DI/DO) will
continue to be processed very quickly.
The ASM 452 is an interface module for communication between PROFIBUS and the SLG U92 with RS 422. The data on the MDS U313/524/589can
be addressed with the ASM 452 in the following ways.
Physical addressing (”normal” addressing) or
With a filehandler similar to DOS
The SIMATIC S7 offers FCs for the two methods of access.
FC 45 for ”normal” addressing
FC 46 for filehandler without multitaging. FC 56 for filehandler with
multitaging.
FC 45 and FC 46/56 give the S7 user an easy–to–use interface with powerful
commands. FC 45 and FC 56 offer additional command chaining and S7 data
structures via UDTs.

An SLG always occupies two M12 connection sockets on the ASM 452. A
prefabricated cable (cf. figure 6-4) makes it very easy to connect the SLG.
The standard version of the connection cable has a length of 2 m. Other
available lengths are 5 m, 10 m, 20 m and 50 m.
An SLG connection plug with screw terminals is available for users who
want to make their own cables (see figure 6-3). Cables and SLG connection

6.3ASM 473
Interfaces
Application area
The ASM 473 interface is a MOBY module for the SIMATIC S7. It can be
connected to the distributed I/O device ET 200X and DESINA.
PROFIBUS–DPV1 serves as the interface to the user when the ET 200X is
used. An S7–300 or S7–400 with integrated PROFIBUS connection can be
used as the controller.
The ASM 473 supplements the SIMATIC S7 MOBY interface module ASM
475. With its protection rating of IP 67, it can be set up and operated directly
within the process without an extra protective case.
An ET 200X basic module (BM 141/142) with the order number
6ES7 141-1BF11-0XB0 or 6ES7 142-1BD21-0XB0 or a BM 143 is a prerequisite for using the ASM 473.
The data are accessed on the MDS with physical addresses.
Function FC 45 is available for operation on a SIMATIC S7. The hardware
configuration of the ASM 473 is performed with an Object Manager (OM)
which is integrated in SIMATIC Manager.
Other features
Up to 7 ASM 473s can be run in parallel on one ET 200X station.
All I/O modules from the ET 200X family can be run parallel to the ASM
473.

configuration
The ASM 473 is integrated in the hardware configuration of SIMATIC
Manager by calling Setup.exe in the directory S7_OM\ASM473_OM on the
”MOBY Software” CD. At the moment the ASM 473 cannot be integrated on
the master of another manufacturer.
SLG connection
technology
An SLG always occupies two M12 connection sockets (X3 and X4) on the
ASM 473. A prefabricated cable (cf. figure 6-4) makes it very easy to
connect the SLG. The standard version of the connection cable has a length
of 2 m. Other lengths are available on request. An SLG connection plug with
screw terminals (see figure 6-3) is available for users who want to make their
own cables. Cables and SLG connection plugs can be ordered from the
MOBY catalog.

6.4ASM 475
Application area
The ASM 475 interface module is a MOBY module which can be installed
on the SIMATIC S7–300 and ET 200M.
Up to eight ASM 475 interface modules can be installed and run in one module rack of the SIMATIC S7–300. When a setup with several module racks
(max. of four) is used, the ASM 475 can be installed and run in every rack. In
its maximum configuration, one SIMATIC S7–300 can handle up to 32
ASMs centrally. The ASMs can just as well be run on the distributed I/O ET
200M on PROFIBUS. This makes operation in an S7–400 environment possible. Up to 7 ASMs can be run on one ET 200M.
Error messages and operational states are indicated with LEDs. The galvanic
isolation between SLG and the SIMATIC S7–300 bus permits interference–
immune operation.
Figure 6-14 Interface ASM 475
The ASM 475 is an interface module for communication between the
SIMATIC S7 and the SLG U92 with RS 422. The data on the MDS
U313/524/589can be addressed with the ASM 475 in the following ways.
Physical addressing (”normal” addressing) or
With a filehandler similar to DOS
The SIMATIC S7 offers a function for each of the two methods of access.
FC 45 for ”normal” addressing
FC 56 for Filehandler
FC 45 and FC 56 give the S7 user an easy–to–use interface with powerful
commands. FC 45 and FC 56 offer additional command chaining and S7 data
structures via UDTs.

7.2MOBY Wide–Range Power Pack
Description
The MOBY wide–range power pack is a compact, primary–pulsed power
supply, designed for use on single–phase, alternating current networks with
two DC outputs (socket plug connector, circuited in parallel).
The robust physical construction is comprised of an aluminum housing which
gives the finely–adjusted system a good blend of physical strength, protection
against electromagnetic interference and optimum heat dissipation.
The primary–pulsed power supply is protected against overload with a
built–in power limitation circuit and is permanently short–circuit proof.
The standardly integrated overvoltage fuse (SIOV) protects the electronics
from excessively high voltages. Two SLG U92s can be directly connected to
the MOBY wide–range power pack. You will also need the connection cable
6GT2 591-1C... (see chap. 3.6.2) for this.
