1.2 System components Overview
SIMOTION D410 communicates with the components of the automation landscape via the
following interfaces:
● PROFIBUS DP (SIMOTION D410 DP only)
● PROFINET (SIMOTION D410 PN only)
● DRIVE-CLiQ (DRIVE Component Link with IQ)
● Power Module Interface (PM-IF)
● SIMOTION D features a SINAMICS Integrated drive element. Communication with the
SINAMICS Integrated (node 3) is via PROFIBUS mechanisms (DP integrated).
The most important system components and their functions are listed in the following table.

Components Function
SIMOTION D410 ... is the central motion control module.
The module contains the programmable SIMOTION Runtime in
SIMOTION D410 and the SINAMICS S120 drive software.
You can use the integrated rapid digital I/Os as:
• Homing inputs
• Inputs for measuring inputs
• User-addressable process inputs/outputs
• Outputs for fast output cams
The measuring sockets can output any analog signals.
The DRIVE-CLiQ interface permits a fast connection to the SINAMICS drive
components.
System software The system software is delivered separately on a CompactF lash card (not
included in the scope of delivery).
Note: An additional license is not required for the real axis technology.
Power supply (PS) ... provides the electronic power supply for SIMOTION D410 (e.g., SITOP
power supply).
Note: If the SIMOTION D410 is snapped-on to a PM340 power module, the
power module may be used as the sole supply for the SIMOTION D410 in
certain cases (e.g., when digital outputs are not used, etc. . .). See the section
entitled in the SIMOTION D410 Manual.
