Objective

In Module E12, the reader learns how networking and data exchange between PLCs and the vision sensor evaluation device VS120 is set up.

As PLC, the CPU 315F-2 PN/DP and as vision sensor evaluation device the VS120 system for the shape check are used. The SIMATIC VS120 components consist of an evaluation device with a sensor head and an LED ring lamp. PROFINET is used for networking between the PLC and the SIMATIC VS120.

Module E12 shows in principle the procedure for the startup, based on a brief example.

.

Prerequisites

To successfully work through Module E12, the following knowledge is assumed:

•How to handle Windows

•Fundamentals of PLC programming with Step7 (for example, Module A3 ‘Startup’ PLC Programming with STEP7)

•Fundamentals of network engineering (for example: Appendix V – Basics of Network Engineering)
