4 Theory
4.1 SIMATIC S7-1200 automation system
The SIMATIC S7-1200 automation system is a modular microcontroller system for the lower
performance range.
A comprehensive range of modules is available to optimally adapt the system to the automation
task.
The S7 controller consists of a power supply and a CPU with integrated inputs and outputs or
additional input and output modules for digital and analog signals.
If necessary, communication processors and function modules are also used for special tasks
such as stepper motor control.
The programmable logic controller (PLC) uses the S7 program to monitor and control a machine
or process. In doing so, the IO modules are scanned in the S7 program using input addresses
(%I) and addressed using output addresses (%Q).
The system is programmed with the TIA Portal Basic or Professional software.
667152176.docx
4.1.1 Range of modules

The SIMATIC S7-1200 is a modular automation system and offers the following range of
modules:
Central processing units (CPUs) with different performance, integrated inputs/outputs, and
PROFINET interface (e.g. CPU 1214C)
Power supply module (PM) with input 120/230 V AC, 50 Hz / 60 Hz, 1.2 A / 0.7 A and output 24 V
DC / 2.5 A
Signal boards (SBs) for adding analog or digital inputs/outputs, in which case the size of the CPU
remains unchanged. (Signal boards can be used with CPUs 1211C / 1212C and 1214C.)
667152176.docx
Signal modules (SMs) for digital and analog inputs and outputs (a maximum of 2 SMs can be
used for CPU 1212C and a maximum of 8 SMs for CPU 1214C.)
Communication modules (CMs) for serial communication RS232 / RS 485 (Up to 3 CMs can be
used for CPUs 1211C / 1212C and 1214C.)
Compact switch module (CSM) with 4x RJ45 sockets 10/100 Mbps
SIMATIC memory cards from 2 MB to 32 MB for storing program data and for easy exchange of
CPUs during maintenance.
667152176.docx
Note: Only a single CPU (any type) with integrated digital inputs and digital outputs is needed for
this module.
667152176.docx
4.2 Operator control and display elements of the CPU 1214C

DC/DC/DC
4.2.1 Front view of the CPU 1214C DC/DC/DC

With integrated power supply (24 V connection) and integrated inputs and outputs, the CPU
1214C DC/DC/DC is immediately ready for use without any other components.
The CPU has an integrated TCP/IP connection for communication with a programming device.
The CPU can thus communicate with HMI devices or other CPUs via an Ethernet network.
 24 V connection
 Plug-in terminal block for user wiring (behind the cover flaps)
 Status LEDs for the integrated IO and the operating state of the CPU
 TCP/IP connection (on the underside of the CPU)
667152176.docx
4.2.2 SIMATIC memory card (MC)

The optional SIMATIC memory card (MC) stores a program as well as data, system data, files
and projects. It can be used for:
– Transferring a program to multiple CPUs
– Firmware update of CPUs, signal modules (SMs) and communication modules (CMs)
– Easy replacement of the CPU
4.2.3 Operating states of the CPU

The CPU can have the following three operating states:
– In the STOP operating state, the CPU is not executing the program and you can download a
project.
– In the STARTUP operating state, the CPU is starting up.
– In the RUN operating state, the program is cyclically executed.
The CPU does not have a physical switch for changing the operating state.
You use the button on the operator panel of the STEP 7 Basic software to change the operating
state (STOP or RUN). The operator panel also contains an MRES button for performing a
memory reset and displays the status LEDs of the CPU.
667152176.docx
4.2.4 Status and error displays
The RUN/STOP status LED on the front side of the CPU indicates the current operating state of
the CPU by the color of the display.
– Yellow light indicates STOP

operating state.
– Green light indicates RUN

operating state.
– A flashing light indicates

STARTUP operating state.
There are two additional LEDs here: ERROR LED for indicating errors and MAINT LED for
indicating that maintenance is required.
667152176.docx
4.3 STEP 7 Basic V14 (TIA Portal V14) programming software

The STEP 7 Basic V14 (TIA Portal V14) software is the programming tool for the following
automation systems:
– SIMATIC S7-1200
– Basic Panels
STEP 7 Basic V14 provides the following functions for automation of a system:
– Configuration and parameter assignment of the hardware
– Specification of the communication
– Programming
– Testing, commissioning and servicing with operational/diagnostic functions
– Documentation
– Creation of visualizations for SIMATIC Basic Panels using the integrated WinCC Basic
software
– Support is provided for all functions through detailed online help.
4.3.1 Project
To implement a solution for an automation and visualization task, you create a project in the TIA
Portal. A project in the TIA Portal contains the configuration data for the configuration and
internetworking of devices as well as the programs and the configuration of the visualization.
4.3.2 Hardware configuration

The hardware configuration includes the configuration of the devices, consisting of the hardware
of the automation system, the field devices on the PROFINET bus system and the hardware for
visualization. The configuration of the networks specifies the communication between the various
hardware components. Individual hardware components are inserted in the hardware
configuration from catalogs.
The hardware of SIMATIC S7-1200 automation systems comprises the controller (CPU), the
signal modules for input and output signals (SMs), the communication modules (CMs) and other
special-purpose modules.
The signal modules and the field devices connect the input and output data of the process to be
automated and visualized to the automation system.
The hardware configuration enables the downloading of automation and visualization solutions to
the automation system and access to the connected signal modules by the controller.
667152176.docx
4.3.3 Planning the hardware

Before you can configure the hardware, you must plan it (hardware planning). In general, you
begin by selecting which controllers are needed and how many. You then select the
communication modules and signal modules. The selection of signal modules is based on the
number and type of inputs and outputs needed. As the final step, a power supply that ensures the
necessary power supply must be selected for each controller or field device.
The functionality required and the ambient conditions are of vital importance for planning the
hardware configuration. For example, the temperature range in the application area sometimes
limits which devices are available for selection. Fail-safe operation might be another requirement.
The TIA Selection Tool (Select automation technology  TIA Selection Tool and follow the
instructions) provides you support. Note: The TIA Selection Tool requires Java.
Note for online research: If more than one manual is available, you should look for the
description "Device Manual", "Product Manual" or simply "Manual" (as opposed to "Function
Manual", "List Manual", "System Manual", etc.) in order to find the device specifications.
667152176.docx
4.3.4 TIA Portal – Project view and portal view

The TIA Portal has two important views. When started, the TIA Portal displays the portal view by
default. This view makes getting started easier, especially for beginning users.
The portal view provides a task-oriented view of the tools for working on the project. Here, you
can quickly decide what you want to do and open the tool for the task at hand. If necessary, a
change to the project view takes place automatically for the selected task.
Figure 1 shows the portal view. At the bottom left, there is an option to switch between this view
and the project view.
Figure 1: Portal view
667152176.docx
The project view, as shown in Figure 2, is used for hardware configuration, programming,
creation of the visualization and many other tasks.
By default, the project view displays the menu bar with the toolbars at the top, the project tree
with all components of a project on the left and the so-called "task cards" with instructions and
libraries, for example, on the right.
If an element (for example, the device configuration) is selected in the project tree, it is displayed
in the center and can be worked on there.
Figure 2: Project view
667152176.docx
4.3.5 Basic settings for the TIA Portal
 Users can specify their own default settings for certain settings in the TIA Portal. A few
important settings are shown here.
 In the project view, select the ® "Options" menu and then ® "Settings".
667152176.docx
 One basic setting is the selection of the user interface language and the language for the
program display. In the curriculums to follow, "English" will be used for both settings.
 Under "General" in "Settings", select ® "User interface language ® English" and "Mnemonic
® International".
Note: These settings can always be changed.
667152176.docx
4.3.6 Set the IP address on the programming device
To program the SIMATIC S7-1200 controller from the PC, the programming device or a laptop,
you need a TCP/IP connection or an optional PROFIBUS connection.
For the PC and SIMATIC S7-1200 to communicate with each other via TCP/IP, it is important that
the IP addresses of both devices match.
First, we show you how to set the IP address of a PC with Windows 7 operating system.
 Locate the network icon in the taskbar at the bottom and click ® "Open Network and
Sharing Center".
667152176.docx
 In the open Network and Sharing Center window, click ® "Change adapter settings".
 Select the desired ® "Local Area Connection" that you want to use to connect to the
controller and click ® "Properties".
667152176.docx
 Next, select ® "Properties" for ® "Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IP)".
 You can use the following address, for example ® IP address: 192.168.0.99 ® Subnet mask
255.255.255.0 and accept the settings (® "OK")
667152176.docx
4.3.7 Set the IP address in the CPU

The IP address of SIMATIC S7-1200 is set as follows.
 Select the Totally Integrated Automation Portal for this, which is opened here with a double-
click (®® TIA Portal V14)
 Select  "Online & diagnostics", and open the "project view".
667152176.docx
 In the project tree under  "Online access", select the network adapter that was set
previously. If you click  "Update accessible devices" here, you see the IP address (if
previously set) or the MAC address (if IP address not yet assigned) of the connected
SIMATIC S7-1200. Select  "Online & diagnostics" here.
667152176.docx
 Under "Functions", you now find the  "Assign IP address" item. Enter the following IP
address here (example): ® IP address: 192.168.0.1 ® Subnet mask 255.255.255.0. Click 
"Assign IP address" and this new address will be assigned to your SIMATIC S7-1200.
 If the IP address was not successfully assigned, you will receive a message in the  "Info"
window under  "General".
667152176.docx
4.3.8 Restore the factory settings of the CPU
 If the IP address could not be assigned, the program data on the CPU must be deleted. This
is done by resetting the CPU. To reset the controller, select the  "Reset to factory settings"
function and click  "Reset".
 Confirm the prompt asking if you really want to reset the module with  "Yes".
 If necessary, stop the CPU. ( "Yes")
667152176.docx
5 Task
Create a project and add the modules of the existing hardware (here: Trainer Package SIMATIC
S7-1200 with CPU 1214C) by using the automatic hardware detection of the TIA Portal. The
following modules must be detected:
– SIMATIC S7-1200, CPU 1214C DC/DC/DC

(Order number: 6ES7 214-1AG40-0XB0)
– 1X SIMATIC S7-1200, signal board ANALOG OUTPUT SB1232, 1 AO

(Order number: 6ES7 232-4HA30-0XB0)
6 Planning
Because this is a new system, a new project must be created.
The hardware for this project is already specified by the existing hardware (here: SIMATIC S7-
1200 Trainer Package). Therefore, a selection does not have to be made. Instead, the listed
modules of the Trainer Package are detected directly. The order numbers (see Task or Table 1)
can be used for checking purposes.
The Ethernet interface must be set for the configuration of the CPU. For the digital and analog
inputs and outputs, the address areas corresponding to Table 1 will be set.
Module Order number Slot Address area
CPU 1214C DC/DC/DC 6ES7 214-1AG40-0XB0 1 DI 0.0 -1.5
DQ 0.0 - 1.1
AI 64 / 66
SB1232, 1 AO 6ES7 232-4HA30-0XB0 AO 64

Table 1: Overview of the planned configuration
As the final step, the hardware configuration must be compiled and downloaded. Any errors
present can be detected during compiling and incorrect modules can be detected when the
controller is started (only possible when hardware is present and installed identically).
The tested project must be saved and archived.
