4.6 Using drive-related I/Os by SIMOTION

4.6.4Configuring free message frames by means of BICO

Overview

For the "free message frame configuring using BICO", dedicated message frames for the data transmission are assigned to the associated drive objects (e.g. terminal modules). Message frame type: Free message frame configuring using BICO (only slaves)

To allow SIMOTION to access the SINAMICS drive signals, e.g. I/Os, they must be interconnected to the SINAMICS using BICO to the message frame. The "free message frame configuring using" is a preferred solution when I/Os are to be divided channel-granular between SIMOTION and SINAMICS and a module view is preferred.

Free message frame configuring using the TM31 as example

The example describes the interconnection of a signal to the TM31 connected to a

SIMOTION D410.

Steps in configuring user-specific message frames using BICO:

●Configure a user-specific message frame

●Interconnect the message frame for TM31

●Create I/O variables in SIMOTION SCOUT

Prerequisite

You have already created a project and configured a drive.
