3.3 Replacing modules 3-5
Overview
The FM 354 is intended for installation as an I/O module in the SIMATIC S7-300
programmable logic controller.
Important safety rules

There are important rules which you must follow when integrating an FM 354 in the
S7-300 PLC in a plant or system.
These rules and specifications are described in the manual S7-300 Programmable
Controller, Hardware and Installation.
Mechanical set-up
The options for the mechanical set-up and its configuration are described in the
manual S7-300 Programmable Controller; Hardware and Installation.
Below, we give only a few supplementary pointers.
Installation position
The module should preferably be installed horizontally.
In vertical installations, please observe the ambient temperature restrictions
(max. 40 °C).

6ES7 354-1AH01-8BG0 3-1
What you should know about the mechanical layout

The FM 354 can be mounted in any of the eight available slots (slots 4 to 11) for
I/O modules on the mounting rail.
In configuring the mechanical layout of your controller, you should note the follow-
ing rules:
1. No more than eight SMs or FMs per tier (rack).
2. The maximum number of modules is limited by module width and by the length
of your DIN rail.
The FM 354 requires an installation width of 80 mm (3.12 inches).
3. The maximum number of modules is limited by the total power that all modules
to the left of the CPU or IM, as the case may be, consume from the 5 V back-
plane bus.
The CPU 314, for example, can supply a maximum of 1.2 A.
The FM 354 requires 100 mA of this amount.

3.1 Installing the FM 354
Rules
No particular protective measures (EGB Guidelines) are necessary for the installa-
tion of the FM 354.
Warning
! Install the FM 354 only after all power to the S7-300 has been turned OFF.
Tools required
A 4.5 mm (.18 inch) screwdriver.
Procedure
To install the FM 354:
1. The FM 354 comes with a bus connector. Plug this into the bus plug of the
module to the left of the FM 354. (The bus plug is on the back; you may have to
loosen the module already in place.)
If further modules are to be mounted to the right, plug the bus connector of the
next module into the right backplane bus connector on the FM 354.
If the FM 354 is the last module in the rack, do not connect this bus connector.
2. Hook the FM 354 onto the rail and swing it down into position.
3. Screw the FM 354 down (torque approx. 80-110 Nm).
4. After the modules have been mounted, you can also assign each of them a slot
number. Slot labels for this purpose are enclosed with the CPU.
The numbering scheme and how to plug in the slot labels are described in the
manual S7-300 Programmable Controller, Hardware and Installation, for the
numbering scheme to follow and how to apply the slot labels.

Connectable encoder types

Incremental or absolute (SSI) encoders may be connected directly (e.g. digital-
rotary encoders); they are then selected via machine data.
Encoders with SINE/COSINE signals (e.g. length scales) may be connected by
way of an external electronic pulse shaper (EXE) that converts the signals to 5 V
levels.

6ES7 354-1AH01-8BG0 4-9
Wiring
Encoder characteristics
Both encoders that can be connected directly and EXEs must meet the following
requirements:
Incremental encoders
Transfer procedure: Differential transfer with 5 V rectangular
signals (such as RS422 standard)
Output signals: Track A as true and negated signal (Ua1, Ua1)
Track B as true and negated signal (Ua2, Ua2)
Zero signal N as true and negated signal (Ua0, Ua0)
When connecting an incremental encoder, please note
that at the instant of the zero pulse (TRUE signal) the
signals of tracks A and B must also be TRUE.
If necessary, the negated signal must be connected and,
consequently, the direction adjusted (MD19).
“1” signal w 2.4 V
“0” signal < 0.8 V
Maximum output frequency: 1 MHz
Phase shift, track
A to B: 90° "30°
Power consumption: Not more than 300 mA
Absolute encoders (SSI)
Transfer procedure: Synchronous-serial interface (SSI) with
5 V differential-signal transfer
signals (such as RS422 standard)
Output signals: Data as true and negated signal
Input signals: Sliding pulse as true and negated signal
Resolution: Not more than 25 bits
Maximum transfer
frequency: 1.25 Mbps
Power consumption: Not more than 300 mA
Encoder power supply

The 5 V or 24 V power supply to the encoders is generated within the module and
is available on the female sub-D connector, and so you can power the encoders by
way of the connecting cable, without additional wiring. The available voltage is
electronically protected against shorting and thermal overload, and is monitored.

Note
24 V encoders that are supplied via X3 must not be inserted or removed when the
FM 354 power supply is connected.
External voltage supply

If the encoders are supplied externally (encoders are not connected to FM power
supply), the reference potentials of the two supplies must be interconnected.
Connecting cables to encoder

The maximum cable length depends on the specifications of the encoder power
supply, and on the transfer frequency. For trouble-free operation, you should not
exceed the following values when using SIEMENS cable sets:

Note
If you want to use incremental encoders with cable lengths longer than 25 or 35 m
(82 or 115 ft), select a type that uses a 24 V power supply.

4.5 Connecting the encoders
To connect the connecting cables, please note the following:
Note
Use only shielded cables. The shielding must be connected to the metallic or me-
tallized connector jacket.
The cable sets supplied as an accessory offer excellent immunity from interfer-
ence, as well as cross-sections large enough for the power supply to the encod-
ers.

Here a 24-V load power supply must be connected. The unit will not operate if the
poles are reversed.
Note
Note the SIMATIC setup guidelines. In particular, the M terminal (reference poten-
tial) must be connected with the chassis ground of the programmable controller (M
terminal on the terminal block of the S7-300 CPU).
see manual S7-300 Programmable Controller, Hardware and Installation.
Danger
! The 24 V load power supply should be a functional extra-low voltage with safe
isolation to EN60204-1, Section 6.4, PELV (with M grounding).

Tools required
A 3.5 mm (.13 inches) screwdriver or power screwdriver.
Procedure for wiring the front connector

To wire the terminal strip:
1. Strip 6 mm (.23 inches) of insulation from the cable; apply ferrules,
if any.
2. Open the front door. Move the front connector into position for wiring (while
pressing down on the locking elements as shown in Figure 4-6).
Lock the connector in place without any electrical contact to the module.
3. Apply the cable grip to the connector.
4. If you are leading the lines out from below, start wiring from the bottom; other-
wise start from the top. Screw down unused terminals as well.
The tightening torque should be 60-80 Nm.
5. Tighten the cable grip on the cable strand.
6. Move the front connector into operating position (while pressing down on the
locking elements).
7. You can fill out the labeling strip enclosed with the product and slip it into the
front panel.
Shielded cables
When using shielded cables, the following additional steps are necessary:
1. After leading the cable into the cabinet, connect the cable shielding with a
grounded shielding bus (strip the insulation from the cable itself).
For this you can use the shielding terminal element mounted on the DIN rail; it
will accept up to eight shielding terminals.
see manual S7-300 Programmable Controller, Hardware and Installation.
2. Connect the shielded line to the module, but do not connect the shielding there.
Shielding terminal element

To provide a shielding end lead for shielded cables, this element can be inserted in
the DIN rail. It can accept up to eight shielding terminals (KLBÜ line from
Weidmüller).

The FM 354 module for servo-controlled positioning is parameterized by way of
parameter DBs that reside in memory on the module. Here a key function is per-
formed by the “Machine data” data block (DB-MD), since it is always needed, re-
gardless of what technological function the module performs. All other parameter
DBs are only needed as a function of the technology involved.
You can now set the parameters of your module. This chapter gives you an over-
view of the parameters that can be set.

S Increment sizes (SM)
S Tool offset data (TO)
S Traversing programs (NC)
S User data (user data blocks)
This data is stored in data blocks (DBs) within the numerical range 1001 to 1239
(not including user data).
The MD, SM, TO and NC data blocks are transferred to the FM 354 and reside in
memory there.
Parameterization of SM, TO and NC may be omitted if the associated functions are
not used.
The user data block must be stored in the CPU. Only then can it be filled with data
online (see Chapter 6).
Parameterization data (except for user data) can also be created, edited and saved
offline on the PU.
Data blocks (DB) of the FM 354

Table 5-1 gives you an overview of the data blocks in the FM 354 and their mean-
ing.

Data block Significance

DB-MD Machine data (DB No. = 1200)
User memory requirements = 284 bytes
Machine data serves to adapt the FM 354 to the user’s own specific ap-
plication. Parameterization with machine data is essential in order for the
FM’s functions to be activated. The parameterized DB-MD should be
loaded to the FM. As it is written to the FM 354, the DB-MD is checked
for the input limits of the individual values and their interdependencies. It
is then stored only if all values are allowed. Otherwise data error mes-
sages are displayed by way of the MPI. A defective DB will not be re-
tained when the power is turned off.
The machine data can then be activated by way of “Activate machine
data” or by switching the equipment on and off.

Data block Significance

DB-SM Increments (DB No. = 1230)
User memory requirements = 468 bytes
Increments serve in the “Relative incremental” operating mode as user-
definable relative path distances for individual positioning. You can de-
fine from 1 to 100 increment sizes (see Section 5.3.2).
Modifications can be made in all operating modes (even in “Incremental
relative” mode) during movement. The modifications of the increments
must always be complete before a new movement is started in “Incre-
mental relative” mode. If this is not the case, the error message “incre-
mental dimensions do not exist” is output Cl. 2/No. 13.
DB-WK Tool offset data (DB No. = 1220)
User memory requirements= 308 bytes
The use of tool length compensation and wear values is described in
Section 10.1. Up to 20 compensation or wear values are available.
Tool offset data are required for the “Automatic and Automatic single
block” modes.
Modifications can be made in all operating modes and during movement.
If modifications are made during starting or at block transitions when the
tool compensation is active (internal access to offset values), the error
message “tool offset value does not exist” is output Cl.3/No.35.
DB-NC Traversing programs
(Program No. + 1000 = DB No. = 1001...1199)
User memory requirements= 108 bytes + (20 x number of traversing
blocks)
Traversing programs are required for the “Automatic and Automatic
single block” modes.
S Programs which are not selected can always be modified.
S If modifications are made to a preselected program, including the
subprogram, preselection of the program is canceled. You must then
select the program again. A modification can be made to a program
when BL = 0 (start of program/end of program) and on Stop.
System data For module replacement without PG
block All the parameter data of the FM 354 (DB-MD, DB-SM, DB-WK, DB-NC)
SDB w 1 000 are stored in SDB w 1 000. This SDB is loaded into the CPU and is used
as an additional means of data storage.
DB-SS Data block for status messages (DB no. 1000)
The DB-SS is an internal DB on the FM for testing, start-up and operator
control and monitoring.
DB 1249 Internal DB on the FM, not relevant for user.

“Starting up the FM 354”.
Note
The measurement system (MD7) must match the measurement system specified
in the other DBs.
The measurement system raster (MSR) is the smallest distance unit in the active
system of measurement.
If at some point you have failed to take this precaution:
1. Delete all data blocks (which do not match the measurement system) or clear
the memory of the FM 354 completely.
2. Modify the other data blocks on the PG.
3. Reload the data blocks to the FM 354.

With certain combinations of machine data, restrictions in the value range arise for
non-processing of the machine data.
These dependencies are verified on acceptance of the MD DB or individual ma-
chine data, and an error message is output in the event of a violation. Some
checks are performed on the basis of internally calculated reference variables.
These reference variables and the dependency checks are described in the tables
below.

Defining Parameters
5.5 Storing the parameter data in SDB w 1 000
Overview
The FM 354 stores its parameter data internally.
In order to ensure that the parameter data are available if a fault develops on the
FM 354 and no programming device/PC is at hand, the data can be stored in a
system data block in the CPU (SDB w 1 000). The CPU transfers the data stored
in SDB w 1 000 to the FM 354 on each new start. If the FM 354 has no machine
data or the internal time stamp (time of creation) is invalid, the data are transferred
from SDB w 1 000 to the FM 354 and saved there.
The time stamp is renewed every time a DB (parameter initialization data) is
opened and when a file is imported. If the contents of the DB are modified (for
instance the machine data), a new time stamp is also generated when the DB is
saved or loaded.
You must ensure that the parameter data in
SDB w 1 000 always match the parameter data on the FM 354 when start-up
is complete.
Note
If parameter initialization data are modified again in the FM following creation of
SDB w 1 000, they are overwritten when the CPU is restarted (see “Time stamp”,
above).
SDB w 1 000 should therefore not be created until start-up is finished.
If you need to modify the data subsequently, you should generate

SDB w 1 000 again and load it into the CPU. You can delete the previous SDB
before you load the new one, however the new SDB automatically overwrites the
old one when it is generated. The old SDB and the new SDB do not have to be
allocated the same number.

Loading the SDB in the CPU

When you have created the SDB, you must load the “system data” of the project
into the CPU.
There are two ways of proceeding:
1. Method
Select the online window in the SIMATIC Manager (the online and offline win-
dows must be open)
Copy the system data from the offline project in CPU\S7-Program\Blocks\Sys-
tem data into the online project (drag with the mouse or select Copy/Paste).
2. Method
Select the system data in the SIMATIC Manager in CPU\S7-Pro-
gram\Blocks\System data.
Activate the menu PLC > Load (or the right mouse button) to load the system
data into the CPU
or
Use the menu PLC > Load in EPROM memory card on CPU
You can also program the memory card for the CPU on a programming device/PC.
If the configuration is loaded from HW-CONFIG, this SDB is not loaded into the
CPU.
Deleting SDBs in the CPU

To delete the SDBs in the CPU:
1. Select “Parameterize FM 354”.
2. Select menu File > Display SDB. Delete the SDB(s).
3. Close “Parameterize FM 354” and in the SIMATIC Manager in Online Project
select CPU\S7-Program\Blocks\System data. Delete the system data.
4. Transfer the system data to the CPU again (see above)

Programming the Technological Functions
General remarks
The purpose of the function description of the blocks and of the interface is to illus-
trate communications between the CPU and the FM 354 in the SIMATIC S7 pro-
grammable controller. The programmable blocks and the AW-DB (which is the in-
terface to the FM 354) make it possible for you to write your user program to suit
your particular application.

Prerequisites
The following prerequisites must be fulfilled for the development of your user pro-
gram if you want to control the FM 354:
S You must have installed the software on the PG/PC as per Section 5.1.
The block library containing the basic functions is normally stored in directory
[STEP7 directory]\S7LIBS\FMSTSV_L.
S The link from PG/PC to the S7 CPU must be established (see Fig. 4-1).
S You must have already created your project for the SIMATIC S7 (see “FM 354,
First Steps”).

6.1.1 Interface, user data blocks (AW-DBs)
The AW-DB (interface) is created off-line.

The user can access the signals and/or data on the interface using absolute or
symbolic addresses (creation of the AW-DB with UDT structure).
The interface is allocated to the relevant channel/axis via the standard function
blocks’ DB_NO input parameter. The module address is part of the user DB. It is
entered by FC POS_INIT or manually via ”Parameterize FC 354” (button ”Enter
Mod-Adr in user DB“ in main display). The user DB must already exist.

6ES7 354-1AH01-8BG0 6-3
Creating the AW-DB

Proceed as follows:
1. Open your project and select SIMATIC xxx > CPUxxx > S7 Program >
Blocks.
2. The data block (for example DB 1) is generated under STEP 7 with the menu
command Insert > S7 Block > Data Block.
3. The LAD/STL/FBD editor is started by double-clicking on this data block.
4. In the “New data block” dialog, select “Data block with assigned user-specific
data type”.
5. UDT 1 is displayed.
UDT 1 contains the structure of the AW-DB.
6. Select UDT 1 and confirm with OK.
7. You have now created the AW-DB.
8. Save this AW-DB with File > Save.
9. Close the editor.
Information about symbolic programming

Normally, the blocks are entered in the symbol table with the symbol name, ad-
dress, and data type (the symbol table is supplied in the project and in the library).
If you change the block number in your project with the SIMATIC Manager, the
numbering in the symbol table must also be changed. Block allocation via the sym-
bol table is always absolutely unique.
Before writing and compiling your user program, you must enter the blocks (AW-
DBs, FCs) which you are using for your particular configuration in the symbol table.
The symbolic structure of the interface is stored in the UDT block provided. The
symbolic relationship is established via your STEP 7 project, the symbol table, and
the UDT block.
Appendix C shows the UDT with symbols and absolute address.
Sample symbol table:

Note
GET/PUT functions (SFC 72/73) from/to the FM are not guaranteed to work prop-
erly, that is to say, these functions are not supported, since they are not required.
Parameter initialization data can be modified via the “Modify parameters/data” sig-
nal (AW-DB, DBX39.3).
Information on signal processing:

The FM 354’s cycle (= 2 ms) and the user cycle (OB 1) are asynchronous to one
another. Depending on the instant of signal transfer to the FM 354, the time it
takes to process signals may be = 1 to < 2 x the FM cycle. This must be taken into
account particularly when user cycles are short. If necessary, the processing status
of the FM 354 should be queried before activating a new action.
Note also that signal/data transfer takes longer/several cycles in distributed confi-
gurations (see Section 6.8).

6ES7 354-1AH01-8BG0 6-7
Information on testing the user program

When testing the user program with “Set breakpoint”, please note that it is not al-
ways possible to resume the program scan with the FM 354 after the breakpoint
has been reached (for technical reasons).
For example, movements activated by the user program cannot be halted when
the user program has reached the breakpoint.
The program can be resumed by executing a restart (CPU: STOP/RUN), by reset-
ting the axis, or by changing the operating mode.
6.1.5 Distributed configuration, OB 86
If system operation must be maintained with an FM 354 despite a faulty link be-
tween CPU and distributed I/Os (DP), OB 86 is to be linked into the user program.
In OB 86, provisions (e.g. set flags and evaluate in OB) must be made to prevent
OB 1 communication with the FM 354 in case of a failure. To enable synchroniza-
tion of the user program and the FM, the FC POS_INIT (corresponding to execu-
tion in OB 100) is to be linked on re-establishing the link. Additionally, OB 122 (I/O
access error) must be loaded in the CPU.
6.1.6 Connecting an OP
Part of the AW-DB, namely the “Data field for operator control/monitoring”
(DBB496 to DBB515), is used to store signals/data for an OP as per the preconfi-
gured operator interface. In order to initiate actions, the relevant signals/data have
to be transferred to the interface (relevant area in the AW-DB) via the user pro-
gram (see Section 6.6, Example 4).

6-8 6ES7 354-1AH01-8BG0
6.1.7 Procedures for Writing the User Program (AWP)
The sample project “zEn14_02_FM354_EX”, which is part of the configuring pack-

age, serves as model for writing a user program.
Suggested procedure:
1. Open your project in the SIMATIC Manager.
2. Select SIMATIC xxx > CPUxxx > S7 Program.
3. Open the “zEn14_02_FM354_EX” project in the SIMATIC Manager with File >
Open... > Projects.
4. Select the ”EXAMPLES” directory.
5. Select the “Symbols” file and copy it to your project under SIMATIC xxx >
CPUxxx > S7 Program (replacing the existing object).
6. Open the “Sources” directory and copy from all STL sources to your project’s
“Sources” directory.
7. Open the “Blocks” directory and copy all blocks to your project’s “Blocks” direc-
tory (including UDT blocks).
8. Select the “Sources” directory in your project. Start the “LAD/STL/FBD Editor”
by double-clicking on the “OB_example” file.
9. Modify the appropriate input parameters (see FC POS_INIT in Section
6.3.1 and FC POS_DIAG in Section 6.3.3) in the FC POS_INIT call in OB
100 and in the FC POS_DIAG call in OB 82.
10.You can insert the relevant functions from the sample project
“zEn14_02_FM354_EX” (see Section 6.6) in the “Example Calls” network
in OB 1. The functions can be activated by writing your user program to
set/reset the signals in the DB 100 (AW-DB for the examples) supplied.
The input parameter must be modified accordingly for FC POS_CTRL.
11. The organization blocks (OB 1, OB 82, OB 100) are generated from the STL
source with the menu commands File > Save and File > Compile werden aus
der AWL-Quelle die Organisationsbausteine (OB 1, OB 82, OB 100) (warnings
from the compilation run can be ignored).
12.Close the editor.
13.Set the CPU to “STOP” and switch the CPU on.
14.In the SIMATIC Manager, select SIMATIC xxx > CPUxxx > S7 Program >
Blocks.
15.Load all the S7 blocks (including system data) into your CPU (with the CPU at
STOP) with PLC > Load.

6ES7 354-1AH01-8BG0 6-9
6.2 Putting the FM 354 into operation with the parameter

initialization tool
To put the FM 354 into operation with the parameter initialization tool “Parameter-
ize FM 354”, the CPU must be at “STOP”. It can also be at “RUN”, for example if
you want to automate part of your plant or connect the drives, in which case the
control/checkback signals “Switch P bus interface to start-up” (AW-DB, DBX14.1)
and “Switching of P bus interface concluded” (AW-DB, DBX22.1) must be ob-
served. For a description of these signals, see Section 9.1).
Also please observe Section 7.3 “Testing and Optimization”.
Note
Observe the relevant safety measures if you want to move the axis.

6ES7 354-1AH01-8BG0 6-11
Function description
The FC carries out the following actions:
1. Entry of addressing values in user DB, If parameter LADDR ≠ 0
Module address
2. Deletion of the following structures in user DB:
– Control signals
– Checkback signals
– Initiate, Ready and Error signals for the job requests
– Single functions and single commands and their Ready and Error signals
3. If the input parameter LADDR = 0, no address is entered in the user DB. It is
assumed that the addressing values (module address) have been entered
manually via ”Parameterize FM 354” (button ”Enter Mod-Adr in user DB” in
main display).
Error evaluation
An error is signalled by the binary result BR = 0 or by RET_VAL < 0.
Possible errors are:
S Unknown channel number CH_NO and DB no. = 0 as input parameters; the
AW-DB is not initialized.
S If no AW-DB is found, the CPU goes to STOP; view the CPU’s diagnostic
buffer.

6.3.2 FC POS_CTRL (FC 1) – Data interchange
Function
FC POS_CTRL is the basic block for controlling the FM 354.
With FC POS_CTRL, you can:
S Process Read and Write requests
S Execute mode control (control and checkback signals)
FC POS_CTRL carries out the following actions:
1. Synchronization with the module (only then is the exchange of signals/data pos-
sible).
2. Reading of the checkback signals. FC POS_CTRL puts the values/signals that
are read into user data block AW-DB.
3. Transfer of the control signals from user data block AW-DB to the FM 354.
4. Carrying out of Write requests from user data block AW-DB, which includes the
transfer of associated data from AW-DB and setting of the job status for the
Write. Before the function is activated, all data required for the execution of the
intended functions must be entered in AW-DB.
5. Carrying out of Read requests from user data block AW-DB, which includes
transfer of the associated data to AW-DB and setting of the Read job status.
6. Automatic transfer of all single functions from user data block AW-DB to the FM
354 when one or more than one setting has been changed and setting of the
Write job status (Set or Reset).
7. Automatic transfer of all single commands from user data block AW-DB to the
FM 354 and setting of the Write job status. The single commands are reset fol-
lowing the transfer.
8. Automatic reading of the error number when an operator input error, traversing
error or data error has occurred. The error number is entered in user data block
AW-DB (DBB90 to DBB97) and the Read job status set.
Call options
FC POS_CTRL must be called cyclically (once in the OB 1 cycle, for instance) for
each channel. Before calling the function, enter all data/signals required to execute
the intended functions in user data block AW-DB.

Parameters
The Table below lists the parameters for this FC.

Type Type
RET_VAL INT Q Return value
Parameter types: E = input parameter, Q = output parameter
Return values
The function returns the following values:
RET_VAL BR Description
1 1 At least 1 job/transfer in progress
0 1 No job/transfer in progress, no error
<0 0 Error:
S Data error (AW-DB, DBX22.4)
S Communication error (AW-DB, DBW66)
The function works together with an AW-DB user data block. The DB number is
passed to the function in the DB_NO parameter when the FC is called.
S Start-up
FC POS_CTRL acknowledges start-up of the module. During this time, the
“RET_VAL” parameter and the “Write/Read job in progress” signals (AW-DB,
DBX68.0 and DBX68.2) are TRUE.
S Control and checkback signals
When FC POS_CTRL is called, the checkback signals are immediately read
(using direct access) from the FM 354. Since the control signals and job re-
quests are not processed until after these signals are read, the checkback sig-
nals reflect the status of the module before the block was called. The control
signals are also written to the FM 354 using direct access.
Depending on the chosen mode, the control signals “Start”, “Negative direction”
and “Positive direction” (AW-DB, DBX15.0, 15.2 and 15.3) are reset once
start-up has actually taken place (edge formation of the signals for the FM).
For information on the generation of the checkback signals “Process” (AW-DB,
DBX13.6) and “Position” (AW-DB, DBX13.7), see “Mode control”.

6-14 6ES7 354-1AH01-8BG0
S Job requests
Data interchange with the module that goes beyond control and checkback sig-
nals is handled using job requests. Simultaneously pending Write or Read re-
quests, however, can only be executed in succession, whereby one Read and
one Write request are processed in one call.
To issue a request, set the relevant initiation signal in user data block AW-DB
(DBB38 to DBB43). In the case of Write requests, you must also make the ap-
propriate data available.
The request is serviced when FC POS_CTRL is called. When the FM is used
centralized, a Read request is serviced in one call. A Write request requires at
least three calls (or OB cycles) due to the acknowledgements required from the
module. The interval between calls should exceed the length of an FM cycle.
When a request has been serviced, the Initiate signal is removed (does not ap-
ply to single functions).
The next job request is not determined or executed until the next block call has
been made.
For each job request, there is a Ready signal (AW-DB, DBX44.0 to 53.7) and
an Error signal (AW-DB, DBX54.0 to 63.7) in addition to the Initiate signal.
You should reset the Ready and Error signals for a job request following evalua-
tion or prior to issuing the request.
S Order in which job requests are serviced/priority
You may submit several job requests simultaneously, even together with Write
requests for single commands and single functions.
As soon as a Write request is detected (also on a signal change in the case of
single functions), it is serviced immediately upon completion of the transfer cur-
rently in progress, if any. Be sure that signals for single commands are not set
cyclically, as this could prevent other job requests from being serviced (priority).
Order/priority of Write requests:
1. Write single commands
2. Write single functions
3. Write requests.
The Write requests are serviced in the order of the Initiate signals,
which is stipulated in user data block AW-DB (from DBX38.0 to 39.7).
Order/priority of Read requests:
1. Read error code, operator/traverse errors or data errors
2. Read requests
The Read requests are serviced in the order of the Initiate signals,
which is stipulated in user data block AW-DB (from DBX42.0 to 43.6).

6ES7 354-1AH01-8BG0 6-15
S Job request status

You can read the status of the job request in return value RET_VAL and in the
“Write/read job in progress” signals in user data block AW-DB (DBX68.0 and
DBX68.2). You can evaluate the status of an individual job request by evaluat-
ing the Initiate, Ready and Error signals for that job request.

Signal Description
Write not possible = TRUE; Write request cannot be serviced in this cycle because:
(AW-DB, DBX68.1) S The axis is not initialized
S Test mode is enabled
S No operating mode is active
S The selected operating mode has not yet been set
In these cases, you can leave the Write request pending or you can cancel it.
FC POS_CTRL resets the signal when all of the above-listed conditions are
fulfilled.
Read not possible = TRUE; Read request cannot be serviced at this time because:
(AW-DB, DBX68.3) S The axis is not initialized
S No mode has been selected
S Test mode is enabled
In these cases, you can leave the Read request pending or you can cancel
it. FC POS_CTRL resets the signal when all of the above-listed conditions
are fulfilled.
Reset status/error With this signal you can reset all Ready and Error signals prior to processing
(AW-DB, DBX69.1) of the pending job requests. The signal itself is then reset by the FC.

6-16 6ES7 354-1AH01-8BG0
Error evaluation
Communication errors or data interpretation errors on the FM are flagged in the
Binary Result (BR = 0) and by RET_VAL < 0; see job request status.
Possible errors are:
S Data transfer error (communication is not completed) during a transfer with SFC
58/59 “WR_REC / RD_REC”. The error code is made available in user data
block AW-DB, DBW66 (RET_VAL value of these internal SFCs) (4., 5., 6. Un-
der job request status, Table 6-2, also see Error List, Section 6.7).
S Data transferred with Write are checked for data errors by the module and inter-
preted. If a data error occurs, the checkback signal “Data error” (AW-DB,
DBX22.4) is set to TRUE in user data block AW-DB (message: “Write job ter-
minated with error”). The error number, read out via an internal job request, is
entered in user data block AW-DB, DBB94 and 95 (job status, point 3, Table
6-2).
You will find more information on data errors in the parameter initialization tool
under the menu command Debug > Error Evaluation and in Chapter 11.
Performance in the event of an error during the servicing of a Write request (does
not apply to single functions and commands):
S The Initiate signal is removed for the errored request and the Error signal (AW-
DB, DBX54.0 to 63.7) and Ready signal (AW-DB, DBX44.0 to 53.7) are set (job
request status, point 3, Table 6-2).
S The Initiate signal is also removed for all pending Write requests and the Error
signal set (job request status, point 4, Table 6-2).
S Any pending Read requests are serviced. The error code (AW-DB, DBW66) for
each request is re-set if another error occurs.
Performance in the event of an error during the servicing of a Read request:
S The Initiate signal is removed for the errored Read and the Error signal set (job
S Any pending Read requests are serviced. The error code (AW-DB, DBW66) for
each request is re-set if another error occurs.
Performance in the event of an error during servicing of single functions and
commands:
S The Write request is not serviced in its entirety, and the Error signal is set (job
S The function set/reset which led to initiation of the Write request is not acti-
vated.

6ES7 354-1AH01-8BG0 6-17
Servicing Write requests

Before Write requests can be serviced, the data area associated with the Write
request must first be initialized with the relevant values and the appropriate operat-
ing mode.
A Write request is initiated by setting the relevant job request number.
The following abbreviations are used in the Table below to indicate the adjacent
operating mode:
Operating mode: T – Jogging mode

Operating mode control

The operating modes are discussed in detail in Section 9.2, the control-/checkback
signals and handling information in Section 9.1.
The user must write the control signals to the user data block (AW-DB). FC
POS_CTRL transfers the control signals from user data block AW-DB to the FM
354 and the checkback signals from the FM 354 to user data block AW-DB. The
FM must be initialized.
The Table below lists the control and checkback signals, with symbols in German
and English.

The status signals “Process in progress” and “Position reached. Stop” are not re-
ported back to the user program until the FM has detected and processed the Start
signal (v 2 FM cycles).
The calling of FC POS_CTRL and the relevant control/status signals forms the
subsequent signals so that starting of the procedure can be detected earlier than
would otherwise be the case.
Signal Description
Execution started = TRUE When a mode/movement is started with the relevant
(AW-DB, DBX13.6) control signals or when the status for “Process in
progress” (AW-DB, DBX23.1) = 1
“Execution started” when FC is called/started
“Process in progress” when the FM starts tra-

versing movement
Position = FALSE When status signal “Position reached. Stop.” (AW-DB,
(AW-DB, DBX13.7) DBX25.7) = 0 is returned or when a mode is started
with the relevant control signals.
“Position” when FC is called/started
“Position reached. Stop” when FM starts traversing

movement
Single functions and single commands are also required to control the FM 354.
All single commands and single functions that are active when FC POS_CTRL is
called are transferred. The single commands are cancelled following transfer, even
in the event of an error.

Error messages from the FM

When an operator error, traversing error or data error occurs, the error number is
read automatically via a Read request. The error number is entered in the AW-DB
user data block and the Read status set.
An operating error, reported via a diagnostic interrupt, can be read out with the
Read request “Operating error no.” (AW-DB, DBX42.5).

6.3.3 FC POS_DIAG (FC 2) – Read diagnostic interrupt data
In the event of a fatal error, the FM 354 generates a diagnostic interrupt (OB 82
must be linked into the user program and interrupt parameter initialization activated
on the FM 435) and makes the information available in the local data area. For in-
formation on diagnostic interrupts, see Section 6.4.
Additional information on external channel errors (operating errors) for FM 354
channels 1 to 3 is provided when you call FC POS_DIAG.
Call options
FC POS_DIAG can be called in interrupt OB 82 or in OB 1.

FC POS_DIAG CALL POS_DIAG

EN ENO DB_NO :=
IN_DIAG IN_DIAG :=
Parameters
The Table below lists the parameters for FC POS_DIAG.

type type
RET_VAL INT Q –1
IN_DIAG BOOL I/Q Initiation signal for reading of the diagnostic data; is reset
following execution of FC POS_DIAG.
Parameter types: I = input parameter, Q = output parameter,

I/Q = throughput parameter (initiation parameter)
The function works together with an AW-DB user data block. When the function is
called, the AW-DB is forwarded with a DB_NO parameter.
Reading of the diagnostic data is started by setting the IN_DIAG parameter to
TRUE. The FC resets the parameter when the request has been serviced.
The IN_DIAG parameter remains set while the request is being serviced. Transfer
of the data is terminated when the parameter is reset (IN_DIAG = FALSE).

6ES7 354-1AH01-8BG0 6-23
Error evaluation
Errors are flagged in the Binary Result (BR = 0) and by RET_VAL < 0.
Possible errors are as follows:
Data transfer error during transfers with SFC 51 “RDSYSST”. The error is made
available in the user DB AW-DB, DBW96 (see Error List, Section 6.7).
Diagnostic data
The prerequisite for the generation of a diagnostic interrupt is activation of the in-
terrupt with the aid of the appropriate parameters (see Section 5.2).
If the user program does not contain an OB 82, the CPU goes to STOP.
The Table below contains the diagnostic information for the FM 354.

6.3.4 FC POS_MSRM (FC 3) – Read measured values
Function
FC POS_MSRM reads the measured values in user data block AW-DB.
For information on process interrupts, please see Section 6.4.
For information on measured values, please see Section 9.3.10.
Note
The measured values can also be read by means of FC POS_CTRL (Read re-
quest). If more than one Read request is pending, this request will be processed in
the relevant order.
FC POS_MSRM renders the measured values irrespective of other Read requests
pending.
Call options
FC POS_MSRM can be called in OB 40 (only when Fm is used centralized) if the
process interrupt was triggered (see Section 5.2), or in OB 1.

FC POS_MSRM CALL POS_MSRM

EN ENO DB_NO :=
IN_MSR IN_MSR :=
Parameters
The Table below lists the parameters for FC POS_MSRM.

type type
RET_VAL INT Q –1
IN_MSR BOOL I/Q Start Read
Parameter types: I = input parameter, Q = output parameter,

I/Q = throughput parameter (initiation parameter)

6-26 6ES7 354-1AH01-8BG0
The function works together with an AW-DB user data block. When the function is
called, the DB number is forwarded in the DB_NO parameter.
Reading of the measured value is started by setting the IN_MSR parameter to
TRUE. When the function has executed, the FC resets the parameter.
The IN_MSR parameter remains set while the function is executing. Transfer of the
data is terminated is complete when the parameter is reset (IN_MSR = FALSE).
Error evaluation
Errors are flagged in the Binary Result (BR = 0) and by RET_VAL < 0.
Possible errors are as follows:
Data transfer errors during transfers with SFC 59 “RD_REC”. The error is made
available in the user data block AW-DB, DBW98 (see Error List, Section 6.7).
6.4 Interrupts
Interrupt processing
The FM 354 can generate process interrupts and diagnostic interrupts. You can
process these interrupts only in an interrupt OB (OB 40 or OB 82). If an interrupt is
generated without the associated OB having been loaded, the CPU goes to STOP
(refer to the manual entitled Programming with STEP 7).
Interrupt servicing is enabled in the following stages:
1. General Interrupt Enable for the entire module:
– Select the module in the hardware configuration.
– Enable diagnostic and/or process interrupts with Edit > Object Properties >
Basic Parameters (also see Figure 5.2).
– Select the OB number for the process with Edit > Object Properties > Ad-
dresses.
– Save and compile the hardware configuration.
– Load the hardware configuration into the CPU.
2. Enable the events for the process interrupt in the machine data.

6ES7 354-1AH01-8BG0 6-27
Evaluating a process interrupt

When the FM 354 generates a process interrupt, variable OB40_POINT_ADDR (or
the corresponding variable in another process interrupt OB) contains the following
information:
Table 6-6 Contents of doubleword OB40_POINT_ADDR
Byte Bit 7 Bit 6 Bit 5 Bit 4 Bit 3 Bit 2 Bit 1 Bit 0

0 On-the-fly On-the-fly Length Position
measuring block chan- measurement reached
ge terminated

2
3
The reason for the interrupt is made available in byte 0.
Lost process interrupts

If servicing of a process interrupt in the process interrupt OB has not yet been ter-
minated, the module “makes a note” of all subsequent process interrupt events. If
an event re-occurs before a process interrupt could be generated, the module gen-
erates the diagnostic interrupt “process interrupt lost”.
Evaluating a diagnostic interrupt

Following a diagnostic interrupt, the diagnostic information is made available in the
local data area of OB 82 for quick analysis. Call the FC POS_DIAG function to as-
certain the exact cause of error (see Section 6.3.3).

6.6 Sample applications
Overview
This chapter provides information on the following:
S Basic example for setting the operating mode
S Example 1: Moving axes in “JOG mode” and “ Approach to reference point
mode”
S Example 2: Traversing an MD block
S Example 3: “Automatic” mode with program selection
S Example 4: Technology example for embedding OPs
General remarks
The sample project “zEn14_02_FM354_EX” ([STEP7 directory]\EXAM-
PLES\zEn14_02) is installed upon installation of the FM 354 configuring package.
The relevant technological functions (FC POS_CTRL, FC POS_DIAG, FC
POS_INIT) are in blocks OB 1, OB 82 and OB 100. DB 100 (DBEX0 contains the
required user signals/user data for all sample applications.
Each example is programmed as an FC (for instance, Example 1 = FC 101, and so
on). In order to utilize the functions from Example 1 through Example 3, the rele-
vant FCs must be called in OB 1 just as they are called in the Basic Example. Ex-
amples 1 to 3 are interdependent. They are technologically simple examples which
you can expand to suit your particular needs. For example 4, the source file
OB_example4 contained in the source folder must be compiled.
After FC POS_CTRL has been called, OB 1 contains an example showing how to
program the evaluation of the reported errors (RET_VAL from FC POS_CTRL).
You can expand this error evaluation program to suit your requirements.
Note
In the examples, the axes do not traverse in simulation mode!
Because “DBEX” is a retentive DB, it is initialized in the start/restart routine (OB
100). If this is not required, simply delete the initialization section of OB 100 (net-
work “DBEX Initialization”).

6-40 6ES7 354-1AH01-8BG0
Basic example for setting the operating mode

This example is always required for sample applications 1 to 3.
Open sample project “zEn14_02_FM354_EX” in the SIMATIC Manager with File >
Open... > Projects. The block for this example is FC 100.
You will find the signals in ”DBEX”.
This example must always be called. It sets the modes according to user require-
ments, evaluates the mode checkback signal and indicates the current mode set-
ting. The checkback signals required for the examples will be copied into “DBEX”.
In order to use the “Jog” or “Reference point approach” mode in Example 1, the
user has to set the relevant mode code in byte MODE_IN of ”DBEX” (01 for “Jog”,
03 for “Reference point approach”). When “Jog” mode is selected, mode parameter
01 (MODE_TYPE) is additionally set for activating speed level 1 in “Jog” mode.
Mode Code
Jog 01
Reference point approach 03
MDI 06
Auto 08
In Example 2, you must set “MDI” mode (mode coded in byte MODE_IN = 06).
In Example 3, you must set “Auto” mode (mode coded in byte MODE_IN = 08).
The active mode is displayed in byte MODE_OUT in the relevant code.
To restart the module (e.g. after diagnostic interrupt), bit RESET_AX must be set in
“DBEX”. The example will then set bit RESET_AX in “AW-DB”. A restart will be
initiated and bit RESET_AX reset in “DBEX”.
In order to work with the following examples, you must set the mode required for
each.

6ES7 354-1AH01-8BG0 6-41
Example 1
Open... > Projects. The block for this example if FC 101.
The signals are in “DBEX”. The signals relevant for Example 1 only are in structure
“EX1”.
The Drive Enable and the Controller Enable for the axis are set in “DBEX” (OB
100: DRV_EN = TRUE, SERVO_EN = TRUE) and are transferred to the interface
(AW-DB) in Example 1.
In order for the example to function, you must first set either “Jog” mode (mode
code 01) or “Reference point approach” mode (mode code 03) in byte MODE_IN of
the “DBEX”. The respective mode checkback signal is flagged in byte
MODE_OUT.
The traversing movements are shown in bits “GO_M” = TRUE (traverse -axis 1) or
“GO_P” = TRUE (traverse + axis 1).
“Jog” mode active:
Once a mode has become active, the Write request “VLEV_EN” (AW-DB, transfer
speed level 1, 2) is executed once. If you want to transfer it again, you must either
reset the “VLEV_D” bit (status/checkback signal from the request) or set the “JO-
BRESET” (reset status/error) in AW-DB.
If you set bit “DIR_M” (minus direction) or bit “DIR_P” (plus direction) to TRUE in
“DBEX”, the axis is moved in either a negative or positive direction.
“Reference point approach” mode active:
When you set the ”START” bit to TRUE, the axis is moved in a negative or positive
direction (depending on the machine data initialization) until the reference point is
located. If the reference point approach was successful, the axis is synchronized
(SYNC=TRUE).
If an operator or traverse error occurred, this is flagged by bit “OT_ERR” = TRUE.
An error can be acknowledged by setting bit “OT_ERR_A” to TRUE.
Note:
Variable table 1, which contains all the relevant signals for monitoring and control-
ling Example 1 (“control and monitor variable” tool), is located in the “Blocks” direc-
tory.

6-42 6ES7 354-1AH01-8BG0
Example 2
“EX2”.
The Drive Enable and the Controller Enable for the axis are set in “DBEX” (OB
100: DRV_EN = TRUE, SERVO_EN = TRUE), and are transferred to the interface
(AW-DB) in Example 2.
In order for the example to function, you must set the “MDI” mode. Enter “MDI”
mode (mode code 06) in the MODE_IN byte of “DBEX”. The relevant mode check-
back signal is flagged in byte MODE_OUT.
Once the mode has been successfully set, a default MDI block is automatically
transferred to the module (MDI network) when Write request “MDI_EN” has been
set in “AW-DB” (transfer MDI block). This block can be changed in dependence on
the system and the request. If it is to be retransferred, you either have to reset the
“MDI_D” bit in “AW-DB” (status/checkback signal for request) or set bit “JOBRE-
SET” (reset status/error).
Set the “START” bit in “DBEX” to TRUE in the “EX2” structure. The activated MDI
block is started on the condition that the axis is synchronized and has a Start En-
able. Then the “START” bit is reset. The MDI block cannot be restarted until the
start enable is again available.
The block can be stopped by setting the “STOP” bit.
Only when the “STOP” bit has been reset to FALSE (and the “START” bit to
TRUE) is a restart possible.
If an operator error or traversing error occurs, it is flagged by the “OT_ERR” bit
(the bit is set to TRUE). The error can be acknowledged by setting the
“OT_ERR_A” bit to TRUE.

6ES7 354-1AH01-8BG0 6-43
Example 3
“EX3”.
The program to be selected in the Example has the program number “10”. This
program number is entered in Example 3.
The Read Enable, the Drive Enable, and the Controller Enable for the axis are set
in “DBEX” (OB 100: READ_EN = TRUE, DRV_EN=TRUE, SERVO_EN=TRUE),
and are transferred to the interface (AW-DB) in Example 3.
Prerequisite for successful program selection is the availability of that program in
the FM.
In order for the example to function, you must set “Auto” mode. Set the “AUTO”
mode (mode code 08) in byte MODE_IN of “DBEX”. The relevant mode checkback
signal is flagged in byte MODE_OUT.
Following successful mode selection, the program with the number “10” is auto-
matically selected by setting Write request “PROGS_EN” in “AW-DB”.
Set the “START” bit in “DBEX” to TRUE in structure “EX3”. The selected program
is started, assuming that the axis is synchronized and has a Start Enable. Then the
“START” bit will be reset.
The program can be stopped by setting the “STOP” bit. It can be restarted by re-
setting the “STOP” bit to FALSE (and the “START” bit to TRUE).
If an operator error or traversing error occurs, it is flagged in the “OT_ERR” bit (the
bit is then TRUE). The error can be acknowledged by setting bit “OT_ERR_A” to
TRUE.

6-44 6ES7 354-1AH01-8BG0
Example 4
Open... > Projects. The block for this example is FC 104. Use OB 1, which is
created after compiling the source file OB_example4 in the source folder.
In this example, the HMI interface signals for the data range from DBB 498 through
DBB 515 are transferred to the interface area for the control signals, e.g. the
modes (see Section 8.2).
You can trigger write and read jobs by assigning the data fields to be transferred
the appropriate parameters and data.
For example, if you select the machine data screen PIC_763, you can write an MD
using the ”set” softkey (SK) and read an MD using the ”read” softkey (SK).
Once you have selected the mode screen PIC_75 on the operator panel and
selected the appropriate mode SK, the selected mode will be accepted into the
control signals of the interface, and the appropriate mode will be set.
If you select the diagnostic screen PIC_77, you can acknowledge an error by
pressing the ”Quit” SK or acknowledge a diagnostic alarm by pressing the ”Res”
SK.
In this way, all interface signals which can be activated by the OP are requested.
You can assign default values to all data fields and transmit trigger pulses for the
jobs to be executed.

Checklist
The checklist below will help you check important steps in the installation and para-
meterization of the FM 354 positioning module.
Table 7-1 Installation and wiring checklist
Step Check What to do: OK

1 Slots Plug the module into one of the suitable slots.
2 Shielding Check the shielding of the FM 354 positioning module:
S To ensure proper shielding, the module must be screwed down
firmly
on the rail.
S The shielding for shielded lines for digital I/O modules must be
connected to the shielding terminal element.
S The shielding for the setpoint cable should not be grounded on
the drive-unit end.
3 Limit switches Check the start/stop limit switches. The limit-switch connections must
be connected to the power section. The start/stop limit switches
should not be connected to the digital inputs.
4 Parameterize Make sure the FM 354 positioning module setup is consistent with
the parameterization. Check in particular that:
S The attached encoder matches the machine data.
S The wiring of the digital I/O modules matches the machine data.

As it is written to the FM 354, the DB-MD is checked for the input limits of the indi-
vidual values and their interdependencies. It is then stored only if all values are
allowed. Otherwise data error messages are displayed by way of the MPI. A defec-
tive DB will not be retained when the power is turned off.

Starting up
Checklist
Despite the “acceptance” testing just mentioned, the ultimate responsibility for the
accuracy of all machine data lies with the module user. So it is highly advisable to
perform startup using the following checklist.
Table 7-2 Parameterization checklist
Step Check What to do: OK

1 Machine data Set initial machine data contents
As shown in Table 5-4 machine data are subdivided into configuration
data (K) and setting data (E). K data indicates how the FM 354 is con-
nected to the machine axis or CPU user program, and must therefore
already be fully set up before startup begins.
E data is intended for changes during startup, and serves to optimize
FM 354 response for the technological process of positioning.
The values in Table 7-3 are recommended, and sometimes necessary,
as initial settings.
2 Increments Increments are only needed for the “Relative incremental” mode. For
the next part of the startup procedure it is helpful to set up an “Incre-
ments” data block (DB-SM) with the following values:
Value 1 1 MSR
Value 2 10 MSR
Value 3 100 MSR
Value 4 1,000 MSR
Value 5 10,000 MSR
with rotary axes:
Value 6 1 rotary-axis cycle [MSR] MSR = measurement-system
grid
3 Tool offset data Tool offset data is needed only for the “Automatic” mode and is not nec-
essary for the startup described here. Generally, it is not needed until
you start up the user program on the S7-300 CPU.
4 Traversing pro- Traversing programs are needed only for the “Automatic” mode and are
grams not necessary for the startup described here. Generally, it is not needed
until you start up the user program on the S7-300 CPU.
5 Create SDB w When you have completed all start-up actions on the FM 354 and
1 000 your plant, create, save and load SDB w 1 000 into the CPU/onto the
memory card of the CPU. All the parameter data (DBs) of the FM 354
are stored in SDB w 1 000. This SDB allows you to replace the FM 354
module in the event of a fault, and to download the parameters without
a programming device/PC.

7.3 Testing and optimization
Testing and optimization information

Once you have installed, wired and parameterized the unit, you can test and opti-
mize your FM 354 positioning module. Testing and optimization can be performed
with the aid of the testing and start-up interface with or without the user program.
You can also test individual modes and their traversing programs, and view and
debug them during execution.
There are two ways of operating the FM:
S CPU is in “STOP”, test without user program
S CPU is in “RUN”, test with user program
You can monitor the interface between the FM and the user program. You can
also control the program from the start-up user interface when control signal
[TFB] (TEST_EN) is enabled in the user program.
This interface is installed with “Parameterize FM 354”. Once the FM 354 has been
parameterized, you can call it up by selecting the menu Test > Startup or by se-
lecting from the overview display.

S Turn simulation on (if you want an operating case)
S Servo enable
S Drive enable
S Override 1...100%
You can operate the “R+” and “R–” buttons in the “jogging” mode as follows:
1. Select “R+” or “R–” with the mouse
2. Press the space bar
You can operate “Start” and “Stop” with the mouse, or with the space bar if you
have already selected the button.
The digital outputs are not set in the “Stop” status of the CPU.
When you operate the following buttons, you will get dialog windows:
S Set actual value...
S Set actual value on-the-fly
S Set reference point
S Zero offset
Warning
! If you move the axis directly (without simulation), for safety’s sake make sure you
can switch off the hardware if a hazard arises
Note
If you use the start-up user interface to operate the FM 354 when the CPU is in
“STOP”, and then switch the CPU to “RUN” and then immediately switch to the
start-up interface in your user program by means of the [TFB] (TEST_EN) signals
(e.g. if example application 3 is included in the user program), please note the fol-
lowing:
You must select the mode again from the start-up interface, or close the
start-up interface and call it up again.

7.3.1 Activating the machine data
Overview
The checkback signal PARA notifies you that a DB-MD has been retained. This
machine data is automatically activated at power-up. The module’s positioning
functions are ready to operate.
If no DB-MD is present as yet on the FM 354 when the control is switched on, the
module can only communicate by way of the MPI interface. The control signals are
not processed by the FM 354. Once an error-free DB-MD has been transferred,
the machine data is automatically activated, PARA is set and the control signals
are processed.
If the FM 354 is working with activated machine data, you can transfer a new data
block or individual parameters in modified form to the module and, if the entire
DB-MD is error-free, put the new or modified data into effect by means of the ”Acti-
vate machine data” function provided that an operating mode is active (parameter-
izing tool ”Start-up display”).
The following approaches are possible:
S If only E data have been modified in the machine data record since the last ac-
tivation, the equipment is activated with module status “Operation in progress”
= 0, without interrupting the servo cycle. “SYN” is retained.
S If K data has also been modified in the machine data record since the last ac-
tivation, activation takes place with module status “Operation in progress” = 0
by way of a cold restart of the servo, just as occurs for a power-up of the mod-
ule. The instantaneous actual position is still displayed, but encoder pulses from
incremental encoders might go unrecorded. “SYN” is reset.
S If the machine data record contains erroneous data at activation time, the func-
tion is rejected, with the “Machine data cannot be activated” error message
(see Table 11-5, Class 2, No. 21).

Drive transition time and maximum voltage rise

For the following position-controller optimization it is important to know the drive
time constant (transition time). In open-loop control mode and on errors with the
response “Everything Off” (see Section 11) the voltage value is fed to the drive by
way of a ramp defined in MD45. A variety of drives, as well as certain mechanical
or technological situations, may require a limitation on the voltage rise. If you do
not have a specific value in hand and wish to find a suitable rise value by trial and
error, please use the following procedure:

7.3.4 Optimizing the position controller
Overview
In principle, the dynamic response of an axis is essentially determined by the dy-
namic response of the variable-speed drive; there is not sufficient space to discuss
this topic here. But this latter dynamic response, in turn, is influenced by the design
characteristics of the machinery, such as friction, backlash, torsion and the like. By
feeding back the measured displacement, a position controller generally closes the
outermost loop of a controller cascade with the following structure:

FM 354 Drive

position
Tacho
Actual position Encoders
Fig. 7-11 Position control circuit
Procedure
The following instructions are intended as an aid for practical situations.
Position controllers must meet a variety of requirements for various technological
applications.
Assessment criteria for the quality of the positioning process can include:
S Good uniformity of traversing movement
S Little or no overshoot at the target point for positioning
S Short positioning time
S A continuous acceleration (soft travel).
In most applications, several of these criteria will be important, so that most of the
time the dynamic response of the controller can be optimized only with a number of
compromises.
Execute test movements as in Figure 7-12 during the optimization steps described
below.

Selecting initial values of response-defining MD

Set the following machine data in accordance with the drive time constant Ta
(Tareal) determined in Section 7.3.2 to the initial values for the optimization steps
below, e.g. for an axis in MSR 10–3 mm:
S Acceleration, delay
MD40 = MD41 [mm/s2] = 30 @ MD23 [mm/min] : Ta [ms]
S Jolt time
MD42 (ms) = 0
S Positioning loop amplification
MD38 (1/min) = 100,000 : Ta (ms)
The acceleration value that actually acts on the system is reduced by the time re-
sponse of the position control circuit - i.e. as a function of the Kv value. The maxi-
mum acceleration (a) in this setting can be attuned to the drive time constant, and
can be estimated as follows:
amax [mm/s 2] = 16 @ MD23 [mm/min] : Ta [ms]

7-20 6ES7 354-1AH01-8BG0

The qualitative effect of the parameters on the positioning process appears in the
following table:

Soft movement reversal small great great

Optimization of dynamic response

The following startup actions allow you to optimize the position controller to your
requirements. Check all speed ranges, and if applicable give the greatest weight in
evaluating the results to the speed that is the most significant for your technology.
Optimization for uniformity of movement
You can make optimization of the position controller considerably easier by analyz-
ing the actuating signal or drive speed (tachometer voltage) with a storage oscillo-
graph. The resulting oscillograms for the transition functions U(t) and v(t), i.e. the
oscillation pattern, can be interpreted more easily (see Figure 7-13).

Optimization for overshoot

Evaluate the overshoot in the target position (s-overshoot in the servicing data).
For suitable machine data changes, see Table 7-5.
Optimization for positioning time
Evaluate the approach time to the target position (approach time Te in the servicing
data).
For suitable machine data changes, see Table 7-5.
Optimization for especially soft travel (super-soft)
For particular applications, especially soft travel response of the axis is desirable.
By choosing the following output values for the machine data affecting the dynamic
response you can produce a very soft movement where the acceleration is con-
trolled exclusively by the jolt filter. The effective maximum acceleration in move-
ment-reversal processes responds proportionally to the difference in speed, and
reaches its maximum in the transition from v = 0 to maximum speed (see Figure
7-14).
S Acceleration, delay
MD40 = MD41 [mm/s2] = 0
S Jolt time
MD42 [ms] = 0.5 @Ta [ms]
S Positioning loop amplification
MD38 [1/min] = 100,000 : Ta [ms]
The maximum value of the actual effective acceleration can be estimated as fol-
lows:

Compromise optimization
When optimizing for several of the above criteria, you can determine the machine
data from the results of the individual optimizations by a variety of methods:
S Guarantee of all partial results
– Least determined value of MD38
– Greatest value for each of MD40, MD41 and MD42
S Prioritization of one optimization criterion
Set MD38 and MD40-MD42 to the values that match the highest-priority opti-
mization criterion for your application, and again evaluate response as to the
remaining criteria.
S Taking the mean of partial results
Set MD38 and MD40-MD42 to the means of the individual partial results, and
again evaluate response as to all criteria.
7.3.5 Realigning the reference point coordinates
Axis with incremental encoder

To ensure distinct reproducibility of reference recordings, it is necessary for the
synchronizing zero pulse (SYNI) to be a distinct distance away from the reference
point switch (RPS). At low reducing speeds, we recommend a distance of from
10% to 90% of the distance of one encoder revolution. For high reducing speeds
we recommend 30% to 60%. Check this value in the servicing data report after
executing a reference point approach (switch alignment value) and if you find non-
conformity to the required value range, make a corresponding adjustment in the
relative position allocation between the encoder and the reference point switch.
Example: Positive search direction
SYNI
RPS

MD11, 12
Switch readjustment displayed: 40 % @ MD11, 12

(suitable for high reducing speeds)

6ES7 354-1AH01-8BG0 7-23
Starting up
Set the referencing velocity to the highest value compatible with your require-
ments. It is important to be able to decelerate to the reducing velocity across the
length of the reference-point switch. If this is not the case, an additional reposition-
ing to the RPS occurs before the search phase of the synchronizing zero pulse
begins. Compare the cycle of the executed traversing movements with Section
9.2.3 and optimize the referencing speed (MD28).
Then readjust the reference-point coordinates proper by entering the necessary
reference-point shift in the machine data. After the machine data is activated, the
new reference-point shift takes effect with the next search for reference.
Axis with absolute encoder (SSI)

In a suitable mode (“jogging”, “incremental relative”) move to a known point on the
axis and execute the Set reference point function with the known position value.
The set position and actual position will immediately be set to this value, and the
allocation of an absolute value to the absolute encoder (SSI) will be entered in the
machine data record (MD17). If you want to archive this value externally, apart
from the module’s own data memory, perform a readout of the machine data DB
and save it to a floppy disk or to the hard disk of your PG.
7.3.6 Activating position controller diagnostics
Overview
Once the position controller has been optimized, activate the position controller
diagnostics. If position control is performing improperly or the axis is responding
abnormally, this function will trigger error messages.

7.3.7 Activating the software limit switches, drift compensation and

backlash compensation

Carefully run the axis up to its extreme limits as specified for normal operation of
the machine. Enter these position actual values into the machine data MD21/MD22
as software limit switches, and activate them.
Note
If you change the reference-point coordinate later or use Set reference point for
the absolute encoder, you must redefine the positioning values of the software limit
switches.
If you do not need the software limit switches, the input limits –109 and 109 [MSR]
must be entered in MD21/MD22 (for default values, see Table 5-4).
Drift compensation
If you want to use the drift compensation function in addition to the offset com-
pensation already described in Section 7.3.2, activate it in the machine data
(please see the function description in Section 9.7, Position control).
Backlash compensation
With indirect position measurement (for example, with an encoder on the motor)
the free play of mechanical transmission elements during positioning may cause a
position deviation of a machine part (such as a lathe saddle) that is to be posi-
tioned but does not lie in the measured-value feedback loop. As a rule, a piece of
the distance will be “missing” after a reversal of direction. This backlash amount
can be determined as a mean at various axis positions, and entered in the ma-
chine data MD30 and MD31.
You can use the following flow chart to determine backlash and activate backlash
compensation.

7.3.8 Parameterizable zero-speed monitoring
Warning
! The parameterizable zero-speed monitoring is only required in exceptions. The
parameterization lies completely in the user’s own responsibility and should be
carried out with utmost care.
In the uncontrolled mode of the axis, a zero-speed monitoring of the axis motion is
provided by the FM 354 via the velocity evaluation.
These are special cases in which the MD45 voltage ramp is active:
S In the ”Controlling” mode:
Deceleration of an axis motion
S In all the other modes:
– Cancellation of drive enable during an axis motion
– Restart during an axis motion
– In case of all errors with error reaction ”All OFF”
– In case of some errors with error reaction ”Feed STOP” (see Section 11,
Error handling)
The evaluation is provided using an automatic mechanism implemented in the
software, which is intended to:
S quit the ”Machining running” status
S quit the position control with servo enable activated
For extraordinary exceptional cases of technologically required sequence of
motions or extraordinary dynamic behaviors of an axis, for which this automatic
mechanism cannot determine an axis standstill reliably, new machine data will be
introduced with which exact criteria can be parameterized to detect the end of the
motion.
MD54 Zero speed (see Table 5-4)
MD55 TimeOut time for zero-speed monitoring (see Table 5-4)
Note
MD54 and MD55 are zero (0) by default. Thus, the automatic zero-speed
monitoring is enabled – Principle of functioning as in earlier software versions.
A parameterization using values unequal to 0 can only be carried out using the
relevant table.
MD54 and MD55 act independently of each other, i.e. can be parameterized in 4
possible combinations.
The TimeOut time is started after the setpoint 0 has been reached at the setpoint
output of the FM 354, i.e. if MD45 is unequal to 0 after the voltage ramp has been
processed.

DB-SS
This data block for status messages (DB 1000) contains the control/checkback
signals, as well as the system data of the FM 354. The data of the DB-SS can only
be read.
Monitoring
The data for monitoring can be read and displayed directly in the DB-SS as well as
in the corresponding parameterized DBs of the FM 354.
The advantage of reading directly from the FM is that the values/signals do not
have to be read via the user program first.
Operator control
For operator control, the data and signals (including memory bits and values) are
written to the user DB of the user program.

6ES7 354-1AH01-8BG0 8-3
User program
User data bock AW–DB is the interface for the OP.
When control signals, single functions and single commands are set in the
user data block via the OP, they are immediately transferred to the FM by
FC POS_CTRL.
The signals written in “Operator Control and Monitoring” (requests to transfer the
data with Write as per Table 8-3) must be evaluated accordingly by the user pro-
gram (taking into account any user–specific interlocks) before setting the Write or
Read requests.

same screen (same screen number).
K1 Function key You can use this key to skip from any point in the menu tree to the
actual value display main screen (PIC71).
K6 Function key You can use this key to skip from any point in the menu tree to the
diagnostic main screen (PIC73).
Note
The screens of the user interface (see Figure 8-2 and description of each screen,
Table 8-1) contain display fields and input/output fields. These fields contain values
of configured variables.
S The display fields are addressed to the DB-SS (“Control 2,” DB1000) and are
read directly from the FM 354.
S The input/output fields are addressed to the user DB No.:1
(Control 1-CPU).
– Transmission of these values occurs from the OP 07 to the CPU into the
user DB. These values (if needed) must be transmitted to the FM 354 by
the user program.
– If certain values or control signals can be written only under the right condi-
tions (e.g. if axis is in HOLD mode or selection of a certain operating mode
is required), then the user program must ensure, by analyzing the response
signals, that these conditions are met.

Machine data PIC722 This screen contains input/output fields. Input of values is password
protected. The values entered are in the user DB. You can use the
soft keys to set bits in the user DB:
S Soft key “lesen” – You can use this soft key to insert a memory
bit (in
the user DB) which causes the user program to read the item of
machine data whose number has been entered.
S Soft key “set” – You can use this soft key to set a bit which
causes the user program transfer to the FM 354 the number
entered under value for the item of machine data under MD No.
S Soft key “aktiv” – You can use this soft key (activate MD) to set a
memory bit (“activate MD” bit in the user DB) which is trans-
mitted
from the user program to the FM 354.
Each bit in the user DB which you set in this screen must be reset
by the user program following execution of the function.
Settings for startup PIC723 The fields of this screen which are identified by an “x” are display
fields. If the bit is set, you will see an x. If the bit is not set, the field
will be blank. The other fields are text entry fields in which you can
toggle between “x” and “ ”.
You can use the soft keys “<<” and “>>” to change between the
inset screens of this screen.

operating mode can use the SM No. to enter the values 1 to 100. The “free SM” field
is a text field and you can toggle back and forth between “x” and “”.
If you select “x”, this corresponds to the value 254 for free SM. The
value of the free SM is found in the user DB.
Set data for the “MDI” PIC7124 This screen contains input/output fields. The MDI data record must
operating mode be preassigned by the user program with the corresponding bits (G,
X, F bits are set) and possibly, with values for G, X and F. The entry
field behind G is a text field. There, you can select between the val-
ues 90 and 91.
Using the soft key “set” you can set a memory bit (in the user DB),
which must be analyzed by the user program. With modification of
this bit, the MDI block must be transmitted from the user DB to the
FM 354, and the bit must be reset.

OVERRIDE OVERR Override S Time override
If you parameterize the “time override” function in MD37, there
are two ranges:
– range 100-255%: speed override operates as described
above
– range 0-100%: time override operative
Speed, acceleration and deceleration are changed in such a way
that the time necessary for the traversing movement is directly
correlated with the override value.
Example: Cut override in half, from 100% to 50%
v
100 % vprog
50 % vact

– speed v is cut in half
– acceleration and deceleration are quartered
vprog Override a Override2 t 100

vact = aact = tact =
100 1002 Override
Positioning time is doubled.

Taking the override into account as a time override presupposes
the following additional condition:
If a traversing movement consists of multiple positioning blocks
with block change on-the-fly (the axis does not stop between
blocks), changing the override value affects only the speed. Ac-
celeration
and deceleration are additionally affected only after the axis
comes
to a stop (e.g. reversal of direction).
Note:
Time override has effect only in the MDI and Automatic modes.

9.1.3 General handling information
Overview
Before data/settings can be transferred to the FM 354, an operating mode must be
active (e.g. “Jogging” mode = 1 and MODE = 1). That means that communication
with the FM 354 has been initiated and the FM 354 has access to valid machine
data.

Hints to the user

Here are a few hints for starting a movement and about the response of the
FM 354 to a change of the status of the S7-300 CPU:
It is assumed that the FM 354 has been parameterized correctly.
S First a mode must be set. The servo enable must subsequently be set in order
to prevent the axis from “running away,”.
S Before starting a movement in any mode, the relevant data (e.g. speed levels)
must be transferred and the override must be > 0.
S It is only possible to start the movement when the start enable is set and the
enable input is set (if parameterized).
Enable Start is set if:
– No error occurred
– Mode is active
– No Stop is called
– Drive enable is set
S A static Stop signal prevents all movements or block processing.
S Response of the FM 354 to transition of the S7-300 CPU from RUN to STOP
state:
– As described for Restart (see Section 9.3.3)
– The digital outputs are switched off
– Interface to the user program is switched off
S Response of the FM 354 to transition of the S7-300 CPU from STOP to RUN
state:
A cold restart of the module is executed.

9.2 Operating modes
Overview
The following modes are available on the FM 354:
S Jogging (ER) Code 01
S Open-loop control (STE) Code 02
S Reference point approach (REF) Code 03
S Incremental relative (SMR) Code 04
S MDI (Manual Data Input) Code 06
S Automatic (A) Code 08
S Automatic single block (AE) Code 09
Selecting the mode

FC POS_CTRL is called up in order to transfer the operating mode (code), which
the user program entered in the user data block, to the FM 354.
The axis is controlled by enabling and disabling appropriate control signals.
Checkback signal for mode

When the specification is allowed, the FM 354 feeds back the specified mode to
the user program. If this checkback mode matches the specified one, the mode is
active.
Changing modes
Changing modes triggers an internal stop.
If a mode change is attempted while a traversing movement is in progress, the
modes are not switched until the axis comes to a stop. The mode checkback is
performed after the movement in the old mode is completed.
This does not apply to changes between Automatic and Automatic Single-Block
mode.

9-14 6ES7 354-1AH01-8BG0
9.2.1 Jogging
Overview
In Jogging mode, axis traversing movements are specified by way of the direction
keys (R+ or R–) and by speed.
Velocity
Before the axis can be moved, speeds (velocities) 1 and 2 must first be transferred
to the FM 354 (user DB, DBX38.0).
You can choose between two mutually independent velocities (level 1 and level 2)
with the mode parameter (BP).
The velocity can also be controlled using the override and can be changed during
the movement.

Speed 10 500 000 000 MSR/min

9.2.2 Open-loop control
Overview
In Control mode, voltages of various magnitudes are specified and then used to
perform a controlled movement. The direction of movement is determined by way
of direction keys (R+ or R–).
The actual value of the axis is updated at the same time.
With the position control disabled (servo enable = 0), follow-up mode is active in
the ”Control” mode.
Note
A closed-loop controller, which may have been activated by a servo enable, will be
interrupted while the voltage is being output. After the Jogging signals R+ or R–
have died off, control is referred to the new actual value, and reinstated after the
axis comes to a stop, if the controller enable is still active when the axis stops.
Voltage values
The voltage is specified in the user DB, DBX38.1.
You can choose between two mutually independent voltage values (level 1 and
level 2) with the mode parameter (BP).

Volts 0 10 000 mV
The values for the voltage levels can be changed during movement.

9.2.3 Reference point approach
Overview
In Reference-point approach mode, the direction keys (R+ or R–) or Start are used
to position the axis to a point (reference-point coordinate MD16) specified in the
machine data.
The axis is thus synchronized (see Section 9.6.3).
The override is set to 100% for the reducing speed.
An active zero offset or Set actual value is reset.
Machine data
The following table lists the machine data that is of significance for reference-point
approach:

When an absolute encoder is used, only the reference point coordinate defined as
a fixed point on the axis is approached in Reference-point approach mode.
When an incremental encoder is used, the user has two options for recording the
reference point:
S with connected reference-point switch (RPS)
S without connected reference-point switch (RPS).

When crossing the RPS, a signal length of ∆t w 2@FM cycle must be assured!
Using a reversing switch

If it is possible for the axis to be “behind” the reference point switch when you start
reference point approach, a reversing switch can be installed at the end of the axis
in the approach direction, in order to reverse the axis in the direction of the refer-
ence point switch.
On axis movements with referencing feed, a signal length of ∆t w 2@FM
cycle must be assured for the reversing switch!

9.2.4 Incremental relative
Overview
In the Incremental Relative mode it is possible to execute single positionings over
relative distances using user-definable increments.
The traversing movement is triggered with the direction keys (R+ and R–).
Defining the position

The options available for defining the increment with the mode parameter are:
S Via the user program by defining a position for incremental mode
(user DB, DBX38.2)
The setpoint for the incremental dimension must be entered in the AW-DB,
DBD156, before the write order is initiated.
S Using the increment table; see Section 5.3.2
Speed level 1 (user DB, DBX38.0, see Section 9.2.1) is used as speed setpoint,
and can be modified while the movement is in progress.
On-the-fly position changes (e.g. changing of the position setpoint during the
course of a movement) is not possible.

Note the following when interrupting a movement with “Stop”:
S To continue movement in the same direction - the residual distance is pro-
cessed with the appropriate direction key.
S To continue movement with ”delete distance to go” (user DB, DBX37.1), the
remaining distance to go is deleted and the incremental dimension is again trav-
eled (provided the incremental dimension was not changed).
S To position in the opposite direction - the residual distance is deleted automati-
cally.

9.2.5 MDI (Manual Data Input)
Overview
In the MDI mode it is possible to execute single positionings by way of traversing
blocks. These traversing blocks are provided by the user program.
The MDI block and MD block on-the-fly have an identical block structure.
MDI block
The structure of the MDI block is identical to that of the traversing blocks (see
Chapter 10 resp. Section 9.3.12) except that it has neither a program number nor a
block number.
The user program passes the “MDI block” (user DB, DBX38.3) to the FM 354, and
the block can then be executed. The block can be executed repeatedly, since it is
stored internally. The feedrate is override-dependent.
The MDI block remains in effect until it is overwritten with a new MDI block. A new
block can be transmitted while another block is being processed.

MDI block on-the-fly

The MDI block currently being processed is canceled when the user program out-
puts an “MDI block on-the-fly” (user DB, DBX38.4).
Transfer of “MDI block on-the-fly” interrupts the active “MDI block”. The new block
is executed immediately without “Start”.
The MDI block on-the-fly is not saved in the FM 354.
With software version 3.6 of the FM 354 and higher, the error ”Data cannot be
accepted at the time of transfer” (Class 4/No.1) is signaled when ”MDI block flying”
is provided and [BL] has already been reset or [PEH] =1.

9.2.6 Automatic
Overview
In the Automatic mode (following-block mode), the FM 354 processes traversing
programs autonomously. These programs are created with “Parameterize FM 354”
(see Chapter 5, 5.3.4) and stored as a data block. The traversing programs contain
information about movement sequences and outputs (see Chapter 10).
Program selection
Programs are selected (user DB, DBX39.5) by way of the user program, by speci-
fying a program number and an optional block number, as well as the direction of
machining. A program can be selected only when other programs have been inter-
rupted or terminated or at the start of a program.
A selected program remains active until it is inactivated by selecting program num-
ber = 0, or overwritten by selecting another program.
If modifications are made to a preselected program, including the subprogram, pre-
selection of the program is canceled. You must then select the program again. A
modification can be made to a program when BL = 0 (start of program/end of pro-
gram) and on Stop.

Byte 0 Program number

Forward processing
The program processes the block numbers in ascending order.
Processing begins at Start, with the first block (specified block number = 0).
If processing is to begin at some other point of the traversing program, specify the
desired block number. Processing will take place by searching forward to this
block, then processing forward until the program end command is recognized.
Backward processing
The program processes the block numbers in descending order.
Processing begins at Start, with the last block (specified block number = 0).
If processing is to begin at some other point of the traversing program, specify the
desired block number. Processing will take place by searching back to this block,
then processing in reverse until the program beginning is recognized.
Note
If reverse processing is to execute the same sequence of movements as the for-
ward movement, the effects of the corresponding commands must be taken into
account in the programming. For example:
S M outputs should be written separately in a block;
note M output (MD32) and G60/G64.
S Note change between G60/G64 and G90/G91.
S Note start and end of tool offsets.
S M18 is not executed.
S M02 and M30 at the end of the program are not processed.

9-32 6ES7 354-1AH01-8BG0
Block advance
The program is processed to the end point of the target block, including tool offset.
M commands and dwell times are output and the traversing movements are sup-
pressed.
When processing traversing programs with a forward block search, there are a
number of special cases:
S The external forward block search (G50) is not executed.
S Continuous travel with functions to set (G88, 89) or delete (G87) an actual
value on-the-fly is not executed.
S The blocks under G50, G87, G88, G89 (in the processing direction) should con-
tain a path in absolute coordinates.
Block return
Similar to block advance
Automatic block advance/backward

Automatic block advance/backward means that, after the interruption of an active
automatic program (by an operating mode change), you can continue execution
from this point of interruption in the appropriate direction of processing.
With forward block search, the interrupted program must previously have been go-
ing in the forward direction.
With block search in reverse, the interrupted program must previously have been
going in the reverse direction.
The command for automatic forward or reverse block search is evaluated in the
FM 354 at Start, and a forward or reverse block search to the interruption point is
executed in the ”Jog” mode at the velocity of stage 1. Positioning to the interruption
point takes place (if positioning has taken place previously in some other mode),
and then the interrupted block is processed, including any required output.

9.2.7 Automatic single block
Overview
Functions, same as “Automatic” mode
Whereas in “Automatic” mode the FM 354 automatically starts processing the next
block after completing a given block, in “Automatic single-block” mode the axis
waits for a new Start signal after processing each block that contains a traversing
path, dwell time or M command (except for blocks with G50, G88 or G89).
You can change between Automatic single-block and Automatic mode at any time,
without stopping the movement or interrupting the output.

9.3.1 Modify parameters/data (Write request in user DB, DBX39.3)
Overview
You can use this function to modify parameters and data in the FM 354 data blocks
or to define parameters and data which can then be read out with a Read request
(user DB, DBX43.3) (see Section 9.3.17).

Notes
Please note the following when changing the parameter data:
S Machine data
Machine data can always be modified. Once you have modified the machine
data, the machine data have to be reactivated (for single command, see Sec-
tion 9.3.3).
S Increments
Modifications can be made in all operating modes (even in “Incremental rela-
tive” mode) during movement. The modifications of the increments must always
be complete before a new movement is started in “Incremental relative” mode.
If this is not the case, the error message “incremental dimensions do not exist”
is output Cl. 2/No. 13.
S Tool offset data
Modifications can be made in all operating modes and during movement. If
modifications are made during starting or at block transitions when the tool
compensation is active (internal access to offset values), the error message
“tool offset value does not exist” is output Cl.3/No.35.
S Traversing programs
– Programs which are not selected can always be modified.
– If modifications are made to a preselected program, including the subpro-
gram, preselection of the program is canceled. You must then select the pro-
gram again. A modification can be made to a program when BL = 0 (start of
program/end of program) and on Stop.
Delete block: Specify the program no. and the block no. in the “data
field”. The other data/bits must not be assigned.
Insert block: The block number does not exist in the
selected program. The contents should be entered in
accordance with the “block format”.
Modify block: The block with the corresponding block number is
overwritten with the contents in accordance with
“block format”.

Example 2
Procedure for changing the actual value and the velocity in block 10 of traversing
program 1.
1. Submit job request to read the block. Enter the following values in the user DB:
DB type = 4
Number = 1
Number of data = 10
Job type = 1
Data array = 0
2. Set Write request (user DB, DBX39.3).
3. Following termination of the Write request (one cycle later), read out the block
by setting the Read request (user DB, DBX43.3).
4. Save the data read out from DBB 446 to 469 of the user DB in DBB196 to 219.
5. Enter the actual value in data array DBB208 to 211 in the user DB (data type
DINT).
6. Enter the velocity in DBB212 to 215 of the user DB (data type DINT).
7. Enter a 4 in DBB199 of the user DB (request) (retentive storing of the block).
8. Set Write request (user DB, DBX39.3).

9-40 6ES7 354-1AH01-8BG0
Retentive storage of parameter data

Please note the following when using the function “Write parameters with retentive
storage” (byte 4, job type 4):
Retentive writing must only occur on demand (not cyclically)!
Retentive data are stored on FEPROM (maintenance-free, no battery required).
This memory has a physical limit for the possible number of delete/reprogram
cycles: minimum 105, typically 106. The possible number of delete/reprogram
cycles can be multiplied, from the user’s viewpoint, by providing a larger retentive
memory capacity (much larger than the parameter data memory) and organizing
the memory accordingly.

Note
SDB w 1 000 (system data block, created for module replacement), contains pa-
rameter data which were valid at the time of start-up. If data/parameters are modi-
fied during operation and stored retentively on the FM, these data are not con-
tained in SDB w 1 000. These modifications are lost when the module is replaced,
and should be traceable in the user program.

6ES7 354-1AH01-8BG0 9-41
9.3.2 Single functions (user DB, DBB34 and 35)
Overview
You can use this function to transfer single settings to the FM 354 and activate the
corresponding functions. These settings are:
S Length measurement
S Inprocess measurement
S Retrigger reference point
S Switch off enable input
S Follow-up mode
S Switch off software end position monitoring
S Switch off automatic drift compensation
S Servo enable
S Parking axis
S Simulation
Callup of single settings

The individual functions remain activated until they are reset.
Length measurement, inprocess measurement

Since both functions use the same digital input on the FM 354, only one function
can be executed at a time. In double activations, both functions are switched to
inactive. An error message is issued.
For function description, see Section 9.3.10
Retrigger reference point

A precondition for retrigger reference point is that the axis has been synchronized
by reference point approach.
With this setting, the axis resynchronizes upon overrunning the synchronization
point when the direction of travel is the same as the direction of reference point
approach. Regardless of the current speed, the reference point coordinates are
allocated to the current actual position, taking into account any active shift.
Any resulting change in the actual value causes no internal change of the target.
When crossing the RPS, a signal length of ∆t w 2@FM cycle must be assured!
When a Set Actual Value On-the-Fly is pending, activation of Retrigger Reference
Point is interlocked.

9-42 6ES7 354-1AH01-8BG0
Start Target
– RPS +
Zero pulse Zero pulse for synchronization
Reference-point switch input of the FM 354
Hint to the user:

You can use Retrigger Reference Point, for example, to compensate for slippage
of the trolley in a high-bay warehouse during operation, without having to resyn-
chronize the axis with the Reference-Point Approach mode. When retriggering in
reference point approach with a zero pulse, be careful that the total slippage be-
tween the reference point switch and the stepper motor does not become so great
that the synchronizing zero pulse migrates to an “adjacent” zero pulse!
Switch off enable input

With the “switch off enable input” function, you can switch off evaluation of the en-
able input (see Section 9.8.1).
Follow-up mode
The “follow-up mode” function is used to cancel closed-loop control of the axis.
S For external movement of the axis, the actual value is tracked.
S This setting can be switched on or off only if “Processing in progress”=0.
(does not apply to MD37.15 ”Resume after Emergency Stop”)
Deactivate end position monitoring

You can use this function to deactivate monitoring of the software limit switches
(see Section 9.9).
It can be switched on or off only if “Processing in progress” = 0.

6ES7 354-1AH01-8BG0 9-43
Deactivate automatic drift compensation

This function can be used to switch off the automatic drift compensation.
Automatic drift compensation means:
The drift is balanced to zero by an automatic matching of the analog actuating sig-
nal.
S The setting can be switched on or off if the axis is not in motion.
S Automatic drift compensation has no effect:
– in Control mode
– in the Follow-up Mode setting
– if there is no servo enable
– in the absence of a controller ready signal (if parameterized)
– if the axis is in motion.
Servo enable
You can use this function to:
S activate position control (the prerequisite for closed-loop-controlled operation
of the FM 354)
S to switch the signal through to the drive as indicated in MD37
S to provide control of stops between movements in the Control mode.
Parking axis
This function can be used to change over the measurement system while the com-
plete system is running.
With this setting:
S Encoder synchronization (SYN = 0) is deleted
S Pending error messages are deleted and no new ones are initiated (including
diagnostic interrupts) by the encoder when ”Parking Axis” is disabled.
S Digital outputs are inactive; analog voltage value: 0 V.
The setting can be switched on or off if “Processing in progress” = 0.

9-44 6ES7 354-1AH01-8BG0
Simulation
You can use this function to:
S Test function sequences without the drive and measuring system.
A drive, if any connected, must be switched off.
S Evaluate all digital inputs (Caution, if you are going to simulate sequences that
use such signals, they should be connected to the inputs
of the FM 354 - e.g. for Reference-Point Approach).
S The servo simulates a controlled system; “Controller Ready” is not necessary.
S The setting can be switched on or off if “Processing in progress” = 0.
S All internal function sequences behave as in normal operation.
When the function is deactivated, the axis is reset internally (see Restart,
Section 9.3.3).
9.3.3 Single commands (user DB, DBB36 and 37)
Overview
You can use this function to transfer single commands to the FM 354. These com-
mands are:
S Activate machine data
S Delete residual distance
S Automatic block search in reverse
S Automatic block search forward
S Restart
S Undo set actual value
Callup of single commands

The single commands are activated when the corresponding data record is trans-
mitted to the FM 354.
The commands are deleted in the FM 354 after execution.

6ES7 354-1AH01-8BG0 9-45

Once you have downloaded the machine data (MD) or the MD block (from the pro-
gramming device), the machine data have to be activated. At the first parameter-
ization, the machine data is transferred automatically. In terms of effects, the FM
354 distinguishes between “K” and “E” machine data.
MD category Effect in FM 354 after activation

“K” “Reset” of the FM
S As long as “Reset” is in progress, it is not possible to
transfer other data
S For internal response, see Restart
“E” FM operating condition is maintained
For machine data, see Section 5.3.1.

This command is possible only when the axis is not in motion (“Processing in prog-
ress” = 0). An operating mode must be selected.
An MD block is likewise activated by switching on or off.
Delete residual path

You can use this command to delete a residual distance that remains after a job
has been canceled.
S Effective only in ”Incremental Relative”, ”MDI”, and ”Automatic” modes after a
stop (SFG = 1 and BL = 1). If processing is not interrupted with a stop, the ”De-
lete Distance to Go” request is suspended in the FM 354.
S On starting after a Delete Residual Distance in MDI mode, the active MDI block
is processed from the start.
S On starting after a Delete Residual Distance in Incremental Relative and Auto-
matic modes, processing continues with the following block.
Automatic block search forward

This command is described in Section 9.2.6.
Automatic block search backward

This command is described in Section 9.2.6.

9-46 6ES7 354-1AH01-8BG0
Restart
You can use this command to reset the axis.
S The setpoint output is interrupted.
S The instantaneous processing status is canceled, and synchronization in incre-
mental encoders is deleted.
S Active compensation values are deleted.
S An acknowledge signal is issued for all errors.
Undo set actual value

You can use this command to reset coordinates modified with the functions “Set
actual value” and “Set actual value on-the-fly” to their original value (if the axis is
not in motion).

6ES7 354-1AH01-8BG0 9-47
9.3.4 Zero offset (Write request in the user DB, DBX39.1)
Function of zero offset

A selection, change or cancellation of a zero offset takes effect with the next posi-
tioning action. With a zero offset, the instantaneous shift of the coordinate system
is canceled, provided that a zero offset was already active and the specified shift
change (ZONPVnew – ZOold) was executed with the first positioning. All coordi-
nates and software limit switches, the reference point and the actual value are up-
dated accordingly.
The reference of the workpiece coordinate system is provided via the zero offset.
The actual values read from the FM 354 refer to the machine coordinate system.
The position specification in a traversing block is referred to the workpiece
coordinate system.
Example of a zero offset:
Machine Working range, Target posi- Working range,

axis Start = 0 tion = 120 End = 200
Actual
position =
Zero offset by –50 100
(shift of reference
point)
Workpiece Working range, Target posi- Working range,

coordinates Start = 50 tion = 120 End = 250
–50
Actual position = 150
– Zero point
Fig. 9-1 Zero offset

9-48 6ES7 354-1AH01-8BG0
The zero offset can be deleted by:

S Transmitting shift value = 0
S Starting Reference-Point Approach mode
S Eliminating axis synchronization (e.g. by a restart).
Rotary axis
The following restriction applies to a rotary axis:
Zero offset < Rotary-axis range. The actual value is normalized.
Example:
Range start/Range end 0/360° After shift value= –50°

Actual value 40°
Actual value 350°
Range start/
Range end 0/360°
The start and end of the range are shifted –50°.

Exceptions:
Int he “Incremental Relative”, “MDI” and “Automatic” modes, a zero offset is not
possible until the block has been processed (position reached, programmed stop
set), i.e., it is not possible when the axis is stationary after execution is interrupted
with an abnormal stop.

6ES7 354-1AH01-8BG0 9-49
9.3.5 Set actual value (Write request in the user DB, DBX38.7)
Overview
You can use this function to assign a new value to the current actual value.
Function of set actual value

By transmitting the coordinates, the actual value is set to this value when the axis
is not in motion (after selecting “Processing in progress” = 0). The coordinates of
the software limit switches remain unchanged.
Example of setting actual value:

Actual posi-
Set actual
tion = 100
value to 150

Actual position = 150
Fig. 9-2 Set actual value
The coordinates can be reset to their original value by:

S Including synchronization in Reference Point Approach mode
S Reset actual value
S Restart

9-50 6ES7 354-1AH01-8BG0
9.3.6 Set actual value on-the-fly (Write request in the user DB,
DBX39.0)
Overview
You can use this function to assign a new value to the actual value by means of an
external event.
Function of set actual value on-the-fly

By transmitting the coordinates (new actual value), set actual value on-the-fly is
activated.
However, the Set Actual Value function is not triggered via the appropriate digital
input until “Processing in progress” = 1.
Set actual value on-the-fly can be activated again by transmitting Set actual value
on-the-fly again.
The coordinates can be reset to their original value by:
S Including synchronization in Reference Point Approach mode
S Reset actual value
S Restart
Note:
For “set actual value on-the-fly” in “Automatic” mode, see Section 9.2.6

6ES7 354-1AH01-8BG0 9-51
9.3.7 Request application data (Write request in the user DB,

DBX39.6)
Overview
A selection of up to four display data items whose values can be read out with
“read application data” (see Section 9.3.13).
Code table:
Code Significance
0 No parameter request
1 Actual position
2 Actual velocity
3 Distance to go
4 Setpoint
5 Total current coordinate shift
6 Speed
16 DAC output value
17 Actual encoder value
18 Pulse errors
19 Kv factor
20 Following error
21 Following error limit
22 s overshoot/switch readjustment in Reference Point Approach mode
23 Approach time Te (ms)/drive constant Ta (ms) in Control mode
The code should be entered in CODE_AP1...AP4.

These values are always updated in the FM cycle.
The selection is stored on the FM, i.e. you need make the selection only once to
read the corresponding values cyclically afterwards (user DB, DBX43.6).

9-52 6ES7 354-1AH01-8BG0
9.3.8 Teach in (Write request in the user DB, DBX39.7)
Overview
In a program block selected with the program number and block number, the cur-
rent actual position is entered as a position setpoint (Caution: This is an absolute
position).
The Teach-in facility is possible only in the following modes:
S Jogging
S Incremental Relative
S MDI
and while the axis is not in motion.
The program and the appropriate program block must be present on the FM 354
(see Parameterization, Chapter 5).
9.3.9 Set reference point (Write request in the user DB, DBX38.6)
Overview
You can use this function to synchronize the axis without reference point approach.
Function
With Set Reference Point, a position value at the instantaneous position of the
axis, indicated as a parameter, is accepted as an actual value.
For axes with an absolute encoder, the generated position reference is entered in
MD17. At a known axis position, the known actual position of the system of mea-
surement is transmitted to the FM 354 with Set Reference Point. This value is set
as the actual value of the axis. At the same time, this position reference is saved,
in that the assignment of the encoder actual value to the axis reference point is
calculated from the assignment of the set actual position to the encoder actual
value at this point of the axis; it is then entered in MD17.
”Set reference point” is not possible during machining ([BL] = 1) and will only come
into effect after machining ([BL] = 0).
This function is not effective in ”Automatic” mode (mode 08) or in ”Automatic
Single block” mode (mode 09).

6ES7 354-1AH01-8BG0 9-53
9.3.10 Measured values
Activating the measurement function

A ”length measurement” or ”in-process measurement” can be activated with
”Single Functions” (user DB, DBB34 and 35)”.
Since both functions use the same digital input of the FM 354, only one function
can be executed at a time. In double activations, both functions are switched to
inactive. An error message is issued.
Reading out the measurement function

You can read out measured values from the FM 354 in the result returned by
the “length measurement” and ”in-process length measurement” functions by
calling FC POS_MSRM and via Read request in the user DB, DBB43.7
(see Section 6.3.4).
Prerequisites
The following prerequisites must be fulfilled in order to execute the function “mea-
surement”:
1. Connect a bounce-free switching-signal encoder (touch probe) to a digital out-
put of the FM 354.
2. Parameterize Measurement for this input in MD34.
Measurement functions can be executed in all modes. An executed measurement
is signaled by the checkback signal “ME” and optionally also by a process inter-
rupt.
Inprocess measurement
The present actual position is captured at each rising edge of the touch probe. At
the same time, the axis movement is interrupted (servo-controlled braking).

ling edge of the touch probe. In addition, the actually traveled distance (amount) is
calculated.

The following response takes place with functions that change the current actual
value:
S Resynchronization in Reference-Point Approach mode:measured length con-
tains measurement-error message
S Set Reference Point:measured length contains measurement-error message
S Retrigger Reference Point:measured length is difference between edge posi-
tions
S Set Actual Value:measured length is actual traversed distance
Note
The zero offset function does not change the actual position of the axis, and is thus
not relevant for the above observations regarding the Length Measurement func-
tion.
Error messages
The following table lists the errors that can occur in the execution of the Measure-
ment function.
Error Significance
Travel er- The “Digital input not parameterized” error is signaled when a measurement function is
rors selected without a digital input having been parameterized (see Troubleshooting, Table
11-7, Class 3 No. 30).
Operator The “Measurement function undefined” error is signaled when both measuring functions
contr. errors are selected (see Troubleshooting, Table 11-6, Class 2 No. 16).
Measuring An erroneous length measurement is indicated by signaling back the length “–1.” Possible
error causes include:
S Resynchronization in the Reference-Point Approach mode while a measurement is in
progress
S Execution of the Set Reference Point function while a measurement is in progress
S Direction of travel at the falling edge is opposite to the direction of travel of the previous
rising edge

6ES7 354-1AH01-8BG0 9-55

9.4 System of measurement
Overview
At the start of parameterization, you must fill in the basic machine data item sys-
tem of measurement (MD7). This item governs the input of values.
Variants of the system of measurement

You can set the system of measurement for the following three units:
S mm
S inches
S degrees
Input of machine data

All value inputs and all value ranges refer to the setting in the system of measure-
ment.
Internal processing of values

In “Parameterize FM 354” and in the FM 354 itself, values are processed in the
following base units:
S 0.001 0.001 mm
S 0.0001 inch
S 0.0001 degree
Examples
The sample values in the table below illustrate the relation between the system of
measurement and internal values:

9.5 Axis type
Overview
You can select the axis type with machine data item MD8. Choose either of the
following types:
S Linear axis
S Rotary axis
Linear axis
A linear axis moves between two range limits (traversing range min –109,
max 109). The range limits may be bounded by software limit switches (MD21,
MD22) to form the “working range.”
Linear axes have a limited traversing range. The limits are imposed by the:
S Resolution of the numerical scale
S The range covered by an absolute encoder.

Motor Encoders
Fig. 9-3 Linear axis

6ES7 354-1AH01-8BG0 9-61
Rotary axis
With rotary axes, the actual value is reset to “0” after one revolution. Rotary axes
thus have an infinite traversing range.
0
9 999
5 000
Fig. 9-4 Rotary axis
Rotary axis end

Machine data item MD9 defines the value by which the FM 354 recognizes the end
of the rotary axis.
This value is the theoretical maximum that the actual value can reach. At this
value, display of the actual value switches back to 0.
The theoretical maximum, however, is never displayed, because it is physically
located in the same position as the start of the rotary axis (i.e. 0).
Example:
The following example in Figure 9-4 illustrates the behavior of the axis.
Assume you specify a value of 10,000 for the end of the rotary axis.
The value 10,000 will never be displayed. The display always rolls over from 9,999
to 0.
If the direction of rotation is negative, the display rolls over from 0 to 9,999.

9-62 6ES7 354-1AH01-8BG0
Encoders on rotary axes

Rotary axes are subject to certain restrictions in the choice of encoder/gearbox/
motor, as shown in Figure 9-5. These restrictions arise from the need to reproduce
the actual position accurately over several revolutions when referencing (with in-
cremental encoders or on POWER OFF/ON with absolute encoders). See also
“Dependencies”, Section 5.3.1).

9.6 Encoders
Overview
One of the following encoders must be connected to the measuring-system inter-
face of the FM 354 (see Fig. 1-4).
S Incremental encoder
S Absolute encoder (SSI)
Paths and positions are displayed in 10–3 mm, 10–4 inches or 10–4 degrees, as
selected with machine data item MD7.
The path resolution of the machine axis obtained by the encoder is calculated
within the FM from machine data MD11 to MD13.
Encoder selection
The prerequisite for achieving a given positioning accuracy is an n-fold improve-
ment in path resolution by the encoder.
Recommended values for n

For that reason, when configuring a given specific application, select an encoder
that meets the desired positioning accuracy requirements.
The known design data for the machine axis and the desired measurement resolu-

9.6.1 Incremental encoders
Overview
Incremental encoders serve to detect position values, supplying pulses that the
FM 354 adds up to form an absolute value. After the FM 354 is switched on, there
is an offset, which cannot be determined in advance, between the internal position
value and the mechanical position of the axis. In order to establish the position ref-
erence, the internal value must therefore be set to a predefined value at a specific
axis position. This value is stored in the machine data (MD) as a reference point
coordinate (see Section 9.2.3).
Incremental encoders
The following variant applications are possible:
S Rotary incremental encoder on linear axes
Encoders with one zero pulse per revolution may be used. The number of en-
coder pulses must be a multiple of ten or a power of two.
S Rotary incremental encoder on rotary axes
Encoders with one zero pulse per revolution may be used. The number of en-
coder pulses must be a multiple of ten or a power of two. With indirect encoder
mounting and reference point approach with a zero pulse (MD18 < 4), you must
ensure that the revolution of the rotary axis is divisible without remainder by the
cyclical zero pulse (see “Dependencies” Sections 5.3.1. and 9.5).
S Linear scales on linear axes
Scales may be used with at least one reference zero pulse, or with a cyclic zero
pulse.
In comparison to rotary incremental encoders, instead of the encoder revolution
a period of division is used as a basis here, corresponding for example to the
segment between two zero-mark pulses.

9.6.2 Absolute encoders (SSI)
Overview
Absolute encoders (SSI) have several significant advantages over incremental en-
coders:
S Longer cable lengths
S Reliable data capture by using a single-step GRAY code
S No encoder synchronization needed.
Absolute encoders (SSI)

You can use 13-bit single-turn encoders or 25-bit multi-turn encoders with the SSI
protocol (left-justified).
S Absolute encoder (SSI) on linear axes
Make sure the value range of the encoder is at least equal to the traversing dis-
tance of the axis.
S Absolute encoder on rotary axes
Make sure that the absolute value range captured by the encoder corresponds
to a ratio of 2x or 2–x to one revolution of the rotary axis, and that it encom-
passes at least one rotary axis revolution (see “Dependencies” Section 5.3.1
and Figure 9-5).

9.6.3 Synchronizing the encoders
Overview
When using incremental encoders, at switch-on there is an offset, which cannot be
determined in advance, between the internal position value in the FM and the me-
chanical position of the axis. To establish the position reference, the value internal
to the FM must be synchronized with the real position value of the axis. Synchro-
nization is performed by taking over a position value at a known point of the axis.
When using absolute encoders (SSI), at switch-on there is already a defined rela-
tionship between the position value internal to the FM and the mechanical position
of the axis. This reference can be adjusted by setting an absolute encoder align-
ment value (see Section 9.3.9, Setting the reference point).
Absolute encoder alignment

is the compensation value for numerical alignment of the internal FM position
value.
Reference point approach

is an operating mode used to position the axis at the reference point.
Reference point
is a fixed point on the axis. It is:
S The target coordinate in the Reference-Point Approach mode
S Removed from the synchronization point by the amount of the reference-point
shift, in axes with incremental encoders.
Reference point offset

Difference in distance between the synchronization point and the reference point.
The reference-point shift serves:
S for numerical measuring-system readjustment when an encoder is changed
S as a displacement reserve to brake the drive if the synchronization point is
overshot.
Reference point switch (RPS)

The reference point switch selects the synchronizing (encoder) zero marker on the
traversing path of the axis.
S It is also the signal encoder for a speed reduction before the synchronization
point is reached.
S It is connected to a digital input of the FM 354.

9-72 6ES7 354-1AH01-8BG0
Synchronization point
is a defined point on the traversing path of the axis. It is defined by the mechanical
position of a reference-point switch or in association with a cyclic zero mark of an
incremental encoder.
Synchronization
Creating the position reference between the internal FM position value and me-
chanical position of the axis.
Measured value synchronization with incremental encoders

Irrespective of the approach direction, the synchronization point can be located on
the side of the lower or the higher actual position values in relation to the reference
point switch position. It is demarcated by the rising edge of a zero pulse or by the
reference point switch. This selection is made by the MD18 (together with the ap-
proach direction).
Example
zero pulse Axis direction +

RPS
Measurement grid Cyclical zero mark Synchronization point
With reference to the synchronization point, the reference point can be located on
the side of the lower or the higher position actual values. In the “reference point
approach” operating mode the machine axis additionally traverses this distance,
during its last phase of motion, once the synchronization point has been found.
Consequently, the axis halts the motion, in each instance, exactly on the reference
point.

9.7 Position controller
Overview
The closed-loop position controller performs the following tasks:
S guidance of the drive at the proper speed during execution of a movement
S precise approach of the axis to the programmed target position
S maintenance of the axis in position in the face of interfering factors.
The position controller is configured as a proportional-action controller. In its envi-
ronment are a number of function units that provide support by performing special
tasks within the complex of movement control, and that can be adapted to axis
conditions by means of a variety of machine data.
The diagram 9-6 gives you an overview of the function units and the machine data
acting upon them.

Without jolt limitation the acceleration and deceleration act as abrupt variables. Jolt
limitation allows the break points of a ramp-like speed curve to be smoothed out for
both acceleration and deceleration. This yields particularly “soft” (jolt-free) accel-
eration and braking for certain positioning tasks, such as conveying of fluids.

Basic diagnostics in the position control loop

In servo-controlled mode, the manipulated variable is compared periodically with
the possible maximum values (10 V or maximum frequency). A violation of the
maximum limit is interpreted as follows:
No axis movement: “No drive movement” error message
(see Table 11-7, Class 3/No. 65)
Traverse in the opposite
direction: “Direction of drive rotation” error message
(see Table 11-5, Class 1/No. 11)
Correct travel direction: Oversteer message in status message 1
(see Section 9.3.16, Additional operating
data)
In all operating modes except Control mode, the “servo enable” signal is required
for the duration of every traversing movement, irrespective of the parameter defini-
tions. If the servo enable is not detected or is deactivated during the movement,
the “servo enable missing” message is triggered (see Table 11-5, Class 3/No. 61).
In all operating modes except Open-loop control mode, the “servo ready” signal is
required for the duration of every traversing movement when the parameter is ac-
tive (MD37.2). If the servo ready is not detected or is deactivated during the move-
ment, the “servo not ready” message is triggered (see Table 11-5, Class 3/No. 62).

Axis moving
To monitor following error during movement, the FM 354 calculates the allowable
following error for the instantaneous traveling speed from the parameterized posi-
tioning loop amplification (MD38). Above the parameterized “Minimum following
error (dynamic),” a comparison is performed with the actual value for the following
error.

If an axis standstill occurs above the “minimum dynamic following error”, the
error message described under Basic diagnostics “no drive movement” is output
(see Table 11-7, Class 3/No. 65).

Position controller
The following error is calculated by periodical comparison of the set position de-
fined by the interpolator with the actual position of the axis detected by the en-
coder. From this error, the position controller calculates the actuating signal
needed for the drive in order to balance to a following error value of zero. The actu-
ating signal is provided via a D/A converter (DAC) as an analog signal at the FM
354 output.

Position control loop gain

The positioning loop amplification (Kv factor) specifies at what speed of axis travel
a given following error sets in. The mathematical (proportional) relationship is:
Velocity v [103 MSR/min]

Kv = =
Following error ∆s [MSR]
Although the magnitude of the following error plays no dominant role for a single
axis, the Kv factor still affects the following important characteristics of the axis:
S Positioning accuracy and stopping control
S Uniformity of movement
S Positioning time

9-80 6ES7 354-1AH01-8BG0
The following relationship applies for these characteristics:

The better the axis design, the greater the achievable Kv factor, and the better the
axis parameters from the technological viewpoint. The size of the Kv factor is espe-
cially affected by the time constants, backlash and spring components in the con-
trolled system. In real applications the Kv factor moves within the following band-
width:
S Kv = 0.2...0.5 poor-quality axis
S Kv = 0.5...1.5 good axis (normal case)
S Kv = 1.5...2.5 high-quality axis
The MD38 value is input with a resolution of 103, so that the following input value
results:

Drift compensation
Thermal conditions will shift the zero error in the control loop during operation. This
effect is called drift. In a closed control loop with a proportional-action controller,
this results in a temperature-dependent positioning error. You can activate auto-
matic drift compensation with MD37, under which continuous balancing takes place
in the positioning control loop.
A basic compensation of the zero point error by means of the offet is required for
the optimum effect of the drift compensation
(see MD44, offset compensation).

37 Servo control signal 16 = automatic drift compensation active –

6ES7 354-1AH01-8BG0 9-81
Backlash compensation
Mechanical drive components as a rule have a certain amount of backlash (free
play).
Mechanical reversing backlash can be compensated with MD30. In an indirect
measuring system (with the encoder on the motor), the mechanical backlash is
traveled at each change of direction before any axis movement occurs. The result
is positioning errors.
– +
Spindle
Backlash
When the position encoder is situated on the machine part to be positioned (e.g.
on a saddle - direct arrangement), backlash adversely affects the achievable Kv
factor. On the other hand, if the position encoder is attached to the drive motor (in-
direct arrangement), a high Kv factor can be achieved, but at the cost of position
deviations that cannot be detected by the position controller. A backlash amount
entered in MD30 is applied as a correction by the position controller as a function
of the traveling direction at a given moment, thus achieving an approximate com-
pensation for backlash in positioning.
MD31 is used to label the “backlash-free” or “accurate-measurand” traveling direc-
tion of the axis. If MD31 = 0, the “backlash-free” direction is the one that matches
the direction of axis movement when synchronization is recorded. Depending on
MD18, this will correspond to the following association:
MD18 = 0, 2, 4, 8: Plus direction is backlash-free
MD18 = 1, 3, 5, 9: Minus direction is backlash-free

The backlash traversing speed is added to the
programmed speed for the traversing job
affected by override.
Note the following carefully:

S Backlash travel is not affected by override, and is uninterruptible.
S If the interdependencies of the MDs are violated, an error is reported with
”range violation” as its cause.
S Backlash compensation goes into effect prior to reference point approach.
S A change in MD30 (backlash) takes effect only after a traversing movement in a
backlash-free direction (MD31).
S In ”Open-loop control” mode, backlash is traversed with the preset voltage rat-
ing.
Offset compensation
The analog modules in the positioning control loop (D/A converter of the FM354
and closed-loop controller module of the drive) cause a zero error because of oper-
ating-voltage and component tolerances. The result is that at an internal digital
rotational-speed specification of zero in the FM 354, the drive motor will already be
running undesirably. As a rule, drive controllers have adjustment capabilities for
balancing. But by setting a voltage offset via MD44 the analog system can be bal-
anced at startup from the FM side.

44 Offset compensation –1,000...+1,000 [mV]
For calculation of the offset value, see Section 7.3.2, Drive interface.
Direction alignment
MD19 allows you to align the direction by defining an assignment between the volt-
age sign of the manipulated signal and the axis movement.

Voltage ramp
A ramp–shaped voltage rise/drop can be defined in MD45 for the voltage output to
the drive when the position controller is inactive. This serves to limit acceleration
and thus power for the drive controller, and is preferable to setting options that may
be available on the drive, since it has no adverse effects on active position control.
The voltage ramp is active in the following situations:
S Continuously in Control mode
S Deceleration on cancelation of the drive enable [AF] (see Section 9.1.1)
S Deceleration on transition of CPU from RUN to STOP
S Deceleration on error response “Everything Off” (see Sections 11.1, Tab. 11-4
and 11-5)
S Class 3 errors/Nos. 62, 65 and 66 (see Table 11-7)

Output of analog voltage setpoint
Velocity assignment and max. voltage setpoint

The manipulated signal calculated by the position controller is available internally
on the FM as a velocity setpoint (see position loop gain). To convert this value to
the analog actuating signal, a conversion factor (DAC factor) within the FM is nec-
essary. This factor is formed as the quotient of MD43 and MD23. MD23 contains
the configured maximum speed of the machine axis, and MD43 contains the volt-
age setpoint of the actuating signal to be output by the FM 354 for this purpose; as
a compromise between the highest possible resolution and adequate close-loop
control reserve, this voltage should lie between 8 V and 9.5 V.
Warning

Four digital inputs and four digital outputs of the FM 354 can be used specifically to
a given application.
The conventions and parameterization for this purpose are defined in the machine
data MD34 to MD36.
The signals are processed in the FM cycle.
The signal status of the digital inputs and outputs can be recognized by readback
(user DB, DBX43.4).

9.8.1 Function description of digital inputs
External start
The control signals of the axis include the start signal which triggers a positioning
operation in “Reference point approach”, “MDI” and “Automatic” modes. A logical
OR is established with the “External Start” digital input and the control signal (ST).
External start is connected to digital input I1.

Minimum signal length at the digital input: w 2@FM cycle
Enable input
The enable input signal must be set, if defined in MD34, for a positioning operation/
movement/output of the axis to take place. A reset stops the movement (external
movement enable).
S In the Jogging and Control modes, the movement of the axis proceeds as long
as the AND link continues between the control signal (R+/R–) and the enable
input.

S In the other modes, note the following:

If the enable input is still not enabled after a start edge, the start edge is stored
internally and “waiting for enable” is indicated by the checkback signals. When
the input is set, movement begins and the stored Start edge is deleted (a Stop
likewise deletes the stored Start edge).

9.8.2 Function description of digital outputs (Write request in the

user DB, DBX39.4)
Output of PEH, FR+, FR–, SFG

The following checkback signals: position reached, stop (PEH), axis movement
forward (FR+), axis movement in reverse (FR–), and enable Start (SFG), are addi-
tionally output via digital outputs. The output assignment is parameterized by way
of MD35.
Output of change M97 or M98

The change M-function (AMF) checkback signal for the M functions M97 and M98
is output as a digital output. It allows these M functions (switching signals) to be
applied without being delayed by the user cycle time.
Direct output
Outputs Q0...Q3 (D_OUT1...D_OUT4), which are defined in MD35 as “direct out-
put”, can be used directly by the user program (user DB, DBX39.4) and can also
be controlled by the FM 354.
Since the same memory is used in the user DB for Write request (user DB,
DBX39.4) and Read request (user DB, DBX43.4), the jobs cannot be used simulta-
neously in the cycle.
Note
The outputs are subject to deactivation on module errors of error classes with the
response “Everything Off”.

6ES7 354-1AH01-8BG0 9-87
9.9 Software limit switches
Overview
To limit the working range, entries in the machine data (MD21 and MD22) specify
the start and stop limit switches. These limit switches are active at synchronization
of the axis.
If the limit switches are not needed, values lying outside the possible working
range should be entered in the machine data (MD21 and M22), or monitoring
should be switched off via the user program.
Warning
! The software limit switches do not replace the hardware limit switches for EMER-
GENCY STOP responses.
Effect of software limit switches in modes

“Jogging mode”
At the limit switch the traveling movement is stopped in the limit-switch position,
and an error is signaled.
“Control mode”
If the actual value is beyond the end position, the traveling movement is stopped
and an error is signaled. The limit-switch position is overshot by the amount of the
necessary deceleration distance.
“Reference-point approach” mode
No effect.
“Incremental relative”, “MDI”, “Automatic mode”
Movement is stopped, or not even started, as soon as read-in of the set position
reveals that the position lies outside the working range. An error is signaled.
The following special cases exist:
S Continuous travel (–) for set actual value on-the-fly (G88 see Chapter 10)
S Continuous travel (+) for set actual value on-the-fly (G89 see Chapter 10)
Effect of software limit switches in tracking mode

If the actual value is beyond the end position, an error is signaled.

9-88 6ES7 354-1AH01-8BG0
Response after error

Leaving end position or traveling into working range after error
1. Acknowledge the error message!
2. Travel to the working range with the “Jogging”, “Control”, “Incremental Relative”
or “MDI” mode.
Rotary axis
The end position of MDstart may be greater than MDstop.
When traveling into the working range (e.g. end position was previously switched
off), the shortest path is always chosen.
If both default values are parameterized the software limit switches are inactive.
9.10 Process interrupts
Overview
Process interrupts are interrupts that quickly signal states in the current process to
the user program.
The appropriate setting in the machine data (MD5) specifies which signals are to
be quickly communicated to the user program.
Process-interrupt generation
The process interrupt is generated by way of machine data item MD5:
MD Designation Significance
5 Process-interrupt genera- 0 = Position reached
tion (data type - bit field) 1 = Length measurement completed
3 = Change block on-the-fly
4 = Inprocess Measurement
Hint to the user

You must program the interrupt processing routine in OB40.
The prerequisite is that process-interrupt signaling must have been activated as
part of the environment definition (see Chapter 5).

Writing Traversing Programs 10
Chapter Overview

10.1 Traversing blocks 10-2
10.2 Program execution and direction of machining 10-16
10.3 Block transitions 10-16
Overview
To execute the desired operations of the machine axis (sequence, position, etc.) in
“Automatic” mode, the FM 354 needs certain information. This information is pro-
grammed with “Parameterize FM 354” (traversing program creation) in the form of
a traversing program, based in principle on DIN 66025.
Traversing programs
Each traversing program is stored under a program number.
A traversing program consists of not more than 100 traversing blocks.
The program number and traversing blocks are converted to an internal format
(see Section 9.3.12), are stored in the appropriate data block, and are transferred
to the module. Where they are administered.
The possible number of programs depends on the amount of memory available
(max. 16 Kbytes) and on the length of the individual programs.
Program length in bytes: 108 + (20 x no. of traversing blocks)
Program name
Any program can be assigned a name (optional).
The program name may have up to 18 characters, and is saved with the program.
Program number
Programs may be numbered from % 1 to % 199.

6ES7 354-1AH01-8BG0 10-1
Traversing block
A traversing block contains all the data required to perform a machining step.
Program structure
A program consists of several blocks. Each block number occurs only once, and
numbers are arranged in ascending order.
A sample program structure follows:

10-2 6ES7 354-1AH01-8BG0
Skip block /
Program blocks which are not to be executed every time the program runs can be
identified as skippable blocks by an oblique “/ ”. When the program is being pro-
cessed, the “Skip block” control signal can be used to decide whether skippable
blocks are to be skipped. The last block may not be skipped.
Block number N
The program is executed in ascending order of block numbers, from 1 to 255, or in
descending order if executed in reverse.
G function group 1...3

In each traversing block only one G function may be entered from each G function
group.

Block change G60, G64 (approach conditions)

With G60, the exact programmed position is approached and the feed movement
is stopped (exact stop block change).
G64 causes the next block to be processed immediately as soon as the point of
deceleration is reached (change block on-the-fly).
G60 and G64 are mutually exclusive and self-maintaining.
M commands have no effect on G64 operation.
(For a detailed description, see Section 10.3).
External block change (G50) with delete residual path

The “external block change” function causes a block change on-the-fly triggered by
a digital input. The fast input must be parameterized with the “External block
change” function by way of machine data item MD34.
The function takes effect only on a block-by-block basis (no effect on G60 and
G64).

Notes to the example of external block change

The axis travels until a signal change from 0 to 1 takes place at the digital input.
This triggers two reactions:
S A block change on-the-fly, and thus immediate processing of block N20.
S Storage of the actual position at the time of this signal change to “Actual value
block change.” This position is also the starting position for any subsequent
chain-measure programming.
Depending on the situation, N20 is processed as follows:
S If the block position in N20 is less than the actual position at the time when the
digital input is received (reversal of direction), the equipment is stopped so that
the position can then be approached in the opposite direction.
S If no position is programmed in block N20, movement is braked, the functions
programmed in N20 are executed, and processing then moves on to the next
block (except if the block contains M0, M2 or M30).
S If the programmed path in block N20 is less than the deceleration distance, the
programmed position is overshot and then positioned by a reversal of direction.
If no signal change occurs at the digital input, the target position of N10 is ap-
proached, with the following additional response:
When the target position is reached, the error message “Digital input not actuated”
is output (see Table 11-5, Class 2 No. 15).

6ES7 354-1AH01-8BG0 10-5
Set actual value on-the-fly G87, G88, G89

The “Set actual value on-the-fly” function is programmed and triggered by a digital
input; the block change occurs on the fly and the actual value is set to a new di-
mension (programmed coordinate) at the same time. The digital input must be
parameterized with the “Set actual value on-the-fly” function by way of machine
data item MD34.

Notes to the example of set actual value on-the-fly

This changes blocks on-the-fly from N10 to N15, with G89 causing movement in a
positive direction and G88 causing movement in a negative direction at the speed
programmed in N15.
The axis now travels in the specified direction until a positive edge change occurs
at the digital input. This triggers the following responses:
S Block change on-the-fly and immediate processing of block N20
S Set actual value on-the-fly to the block position from N15 (50 in the example),
and resulting shift of the coordinate system
S Save current actual value.
The programmed position in block N20 refers to the shifted coordinate system.
At the block change from N20 to N25, G87 cancels the shift of the coordinate sys-
tem and causes reference-measure programming to the block position
of N25.
The saved actual value can be read out with “Actual value block change.”
The shift of the coordinate system is maintained until it is canceled by G87 or by a
mode change. It is possible to use the existing shift of the coordinate system in
different programs. The coordinate system can be shifted again without previously
canceling an existing coordinate system shift.
G88, G89 can be programmed multiple times. The shift in each case refers
to the original state. The software limit switches are always shifted concurrently.
If the signal change of the digital input does not occur, the axis runs until it reaches
the limit switch.
Note
The G functions G87, G88 and G89 take effect only on a block-by-block basis and
must be reselected if necessary.

You can switch back and forth at will between reference-measure and incremental
input.
The status at startup is reference-measure programming, G90.
G90 and G91 are modal.
Absolute dimensioning G90

Absolute dimensioning is the method used to specify dimensions that generally
refer to the coordinate system.

Axis as rotary axis

If the axis is operated as a rotary axis, the measuring system must be adjusted in
such a way that the measurement scale refers to the full circle (e.g. 0_ and 360_).
S Reference-measure input G90
In a full circle with 360_, reference-measure programming (G90) has the pecu-
liarity that there are always two options for reaching the set position.
Option 1 Option 2
Set position 0_ Actual position Set position 0_ Actual position

Fig. 10-3 Rotary axis
Option 1:
With G90, the axis autonomously always takes the shortest path to reach the
set position of 45_, going via 0_ to 315_.
Option 2:
The control signals (R+) or (R–) force the respective direction of the axis - in
this example 45_ via 180_ to 315_. (R+) or (R–) must already be pending when
positioning is activated (START).
Note
The direction (R+) or (R–) must be specified sufficiently in advance. A traversing
direction cannot be forced on a traversing block that is already active, or on the
traversing blocks (up to 4) that have already been calculated in advance in G64
operation.
Operation with option 1 or option 2 is at the user’s discretion.
S Incremental input G91

With incremental programming G91, the direction of rotation of the rotary axis is
defined by the sign of the position setpoint. Multiple rotations can be pro-
grammed by setting a value > 360_ as the position setpoint.

10-10 6ES7 354-1AH01-8BG0
Acceleration override G30...G39

The acceleration override is used to control acceleration and deceleration during
positioning movements. The acceleration and deceleration values are set by ma-
chine data. G30 through G39 in the traversing block can be used to achieve a per-
centage reduction in both values. These functions are modal.
G Function
30 100% override for acceleration/deceleration
to
Changing the acceleration override in the program prevents block change on-the-
fly. Consequently G60 response is forced in the preceding block.
The acceleration override is turned off by:
S Mode changes
S Resetting the axis with a Restart (single command)
S Changing or ending the program.
Tool compensation G43, G44

Tool compensation allows you to continue using an existing machining program,
even when the tool dimensions have changed.
Tool offset is selected with G43 or G44, as applicable, and the tool offset number
D1...D20. Tool offset is turned off with G43 or G44, as applicable, and the tool off-
set number D0.
A total of 20 tool offset storage areas and tool wear storage areas are available.
The values are loaded to the module with the “Tool offset data” data block and are
saved permanently. When selected, changed or turned off, the tool offset is not
taken into account until the next positioning action.
A selected tool offset is maintained in effect until it is either turned off or replaced
with a new one. Likewise a mode or program change, or the end of a program, will
turn tool offset off.

6ES7 354-1AH01-8BG0 10-11
Variants in tool offset

Tool offset is made up of two correction-value components:
S Tool length offset
The tool length offset is the actual tool length from tool zero to the tool tip.
S Tool length wear value
The tool length wear value allows the change in tool length due to wear to be
compensated in two ways:
Absolutely: by specifying a fixed wear value
Additively: by adding an “offset value” to the current tool length wear
value contents.
Tool new Tool wear a Tool wear b

ÉÉ Tool zero

DVadd DV
DL DVabs
Fig. 10-4 Tool offset
Notes to the figure:

The tool offset thus consists of the tool length offset and the tool length wear value:
D = DL – DV
DV = DVabs + DVadd
D – Tool offset
DL – Tool length offset (positive or negative)
DV – Tool length wear value (positive or negative)
DVabs – Wear, absolute (positive or negative)
DVadd – Wear, additive (positive or negative)DVadd
If the additive wear is modified on–line, the FM computes the new absolute wear
and resets the additive wear to zero.

10-12 6ES7 354-1AH01-8BG0
Direction of tool offset

The functions G44 (–) and G43 (+) correct the position value in such a way that the
tool tip reaches the programmed set position.
S Negative tool offset G44
As a rule, the tool points to the workpiece in a negative direction. With the in-
feed adjustment, the positioning value (traversing path) becomes smaller.
Referred to the measuring system, the following position is thus approached:
Xms = Xset + (D)
Xms – Position of measuring system
Xset – Programmed set position
D – Tool offset
S Positive tool offset G43
The positioning value (traversing path) becomes greater with the infeed adjust-
ment. The position value is corrected by:
Xms = Xset – (D)
To program a tool offset in the traversing block, at least the tool length offset must
be input. If no correction is to be applied even when the function has been se-
lected, the tool length offset and tool length wear value must be preset to 0.
A tool length wear value can be deleted by an absolute input of 0.
Position X
Positions may be input with a negative or positive sign. The plus sign on positive
values may be omitted.

M functions
Up to three M functions can be programmed in one traversing block, with any as-
signment of M1, M2 and M3. The output sequence of the M functions is always
M1³M2³M3 (for information about output see Section 9.1).
The following figure shows an example.

M0, M2, M18 and M30 are always output at the end of the traversing movement.
M0, M2, M18 and M30 are mutually exclusive within a single block.
Stop at end of block M0

If M no. 0 is programmed in a traversing block, the program stops at the end of the
traversing block and M0 is output. Only a new START edge causes the traversing
program to be continued.
End of program M2, M30

If M2 or M30 is programmed in a block, then after positioning is complete the M
function is output with a subsequent programmed stop and a jump back to the start
of the program. The Start edge can restart the program. M2 or M30 is always the
last output in the block.
If the program is called up as a subprogram, the action skips to the main program.
In this case M2 or M30 is not output.

10-14 6ES7 354-1AH01-8BG0
Infinite loop M18

M18 is always output as the last M function in the block.
Two cases are distinguished:
S M function M18 is output like any other M function. Only after the block has
been processed all the way to the end (including M18) does the axis skip back
to the start of the program.
S If M function M18 is programmed alone in the last block of a traversing pro-
gram, the M function is not output, and the axis immediately skips back to the
start of the program.
Change signal programmable as digital output M97, M98

If M97 or M98 is programmed in a block, the M function output proceeds via the
digital outputs as defined in machine data item MD35, in the same way as the
checkback signals.
Tool offset number D

Twenty tool offset numbers (D1 – D20) are available. D0 in conjunction with G43 or
G44 causes the tool offset to be switched off. The offset values must previously
have been loaded to the module. Nonstandard offset values have a value 0.
Subprogram call P, L
A block with a subprogram call (P is the “number of calls”, L is the “program num-
ber”) cannot contain any further information.

10.2 Program execution and direction of machining
Forward processing
As a rule, programs are processed by ascending block number.
Reverse processing
If programs are processed in reverse, the effects of commands must be taken into
account in the programming:
S Commands are self-maintaining (G90, G91, G60, G64, G30...G39)
S Active tool offset (G43, G44, D0...D20)
S Change of coordinate systems via G87, G88, G89.
For these reasons, a distinction can be made between forward processing and re-
verse processing, in terms of both geometry and block transition response.
10.3 Block transitions
Overview
This chapter describes the influence of certain commands on block transitions.
Exact positioning - G60

G60 mode is overlaid with G50 and G88 to G89 (force block change on-the-fly).
The program advances to the next block when the target range is reached.
The influence of M functions is as indicated in machine data item MD32.

Change block on-the-fly - G64 (standard case)

Changing from one traversing block to the next proceeds without stopping the axis.
The acceleration and braking function is calculated for multiple blocks when the
G64 function is programmed. The number of blocks processed in advance is three.
When the block changes, the feed rate is changed in such a way that a higher
speed from a preceding block is never carried over into the next block, and a
higher speed from a following block never goes into effect while a given block is
still traversing its own path. This means that acceleration does not begin until the
starting point of the block, and deceleration to a lower speed for a following block is
initiated as with G60. When the speed of the following block is reached, the resid-
ual distance in the current block is processed at the feed rate of the following
block.

1 – Block N10 is started at the point of deceleration of N5.

2 – N15 is started at the point of deceleration of N10. Acceleration to the
higher traversing speed begins when the set position of N10is reached.
3 – N20 is started at a lower traversing speed at the braking point of N15.
4 – In a change of traversing direction, the axis brakes until it comes to a
standstill and waits until the actual value of the encoder has reached the
target range.
5 – When the target range is reached, the axis accelerates in the opposite
direction up to the traversing speed of the new block.
To be able to approach a position correctly, the axis must calculate the point of de-
celeration. The relevant parameters for this calculation are the residual traversing
distance, the deceleration value and the current traversing speed.
The point of deceleration is also the earliest possible time for a block change.

10-18 6ES7 354-1AH01-8BG0
Change block on-the-fly - G64 (deceleration)

There are a number of conditions that may delay or prevent a block change on-the-
fly. Here a distinction is necessary between the case in which this type of block
change is suppressed intentionally, and the case in which the selected function
does not permit a block change on-the-fly.
S Block change on-the-fly is suppressed:
– By removing the Enable read-in control signal - this stops program process-
ing at the end of the current block. To continue the program, the enable must
be re-input.
– By output of the M function before or after positioning.
– By M function M0 (stop at end of block). To continue the program, the
START control signal must be reset.
– By a block with a dwell time.
– By processing a program in the Automatic/Single Block mode. Each block
must be activated individually.
– By a change in the acceleration override.
S Functions that themselves prevent block change on-the-fly:
– M functions (during positioning).

1 – Since the M output is completed at the point of deceleration, a block

change takes place on-the-fly.
2 – The M output is not yet complete at the point of deceleration. The axis
begins to brake. At the end of the M output, the axis returns to speed
(transition on-the-fly from deceleration ramp to acceleration ramp).
3 – Axis comes to a complete standstill and waits for the end of M output.

6ES7 354-1AH01-8BG0 10-19
Influence of M function on block change on-the-fly

Machine data can specify the output time for M functions:
S M function is output before or after positioning with a block change
M-function output and positioning proceed in alternation.
– M function output before positioning causes exact-positioning response in
the preceding block.
– M function output after positioning causes exact-positioning response within
the block.
S M function is output during positioning
M-function output and positioning proceed simultaneously.
The following figure shows a sample program with M function output “during
positioning”.

1 – Output of M10 is not position-dependent, since no relevant position for

a position-dependent M function is present.
2 – At the block change from N5 to N10, output is prepared. The axis
the M function does not proceed until the actual position has reached the
programmed position of N5.
3 – If two M functions are programmed in a traversing block, the first
M function is output depending on position, followed by the second
M function.
4 – The change signal for M97 or M98 is output with the G64 block
transition (digital output) if the actual position has reached the
programmed position of the block. The actual position runs behind
the set position (difference = overtravel).

11.2.2 Diagnostic interrupts
Overview
Internal errors, external errors and external channel errors are indicated to an inter-
rupt-capable system by means of diagnostic interrupts (see diagnostic interrupt
data in Tables 11-4, 11-5 and Section 6.3.3). This presupposes that the diagnostic
interrupt message was activated at the time of configuration (see Chapter 5). If the
system is not interrupt-capable, the diagnostic interrupt information must be read
out cyclically with FC POS_DIAG.

Overview
Please note the following for direct access to DBs (e.g. using an OP).
If data errors/machine data errors/traversing program errors are detected when the
parameters are written to the data block (e.g. in the parameterization tool), an error
message is stored in the data block. The error-specification is stored in the form of
an error number in the corresponding data block (see error list in Table 11-8). The
error message occurs each time the data block is written to until the cause has
been eliminated.
It is recommended to scan the error message after every write operation.
