type) can be calculated in 16 ms. 23 blocks can
be calculated in 4 ms when the "Basic
positioner" function module is not activated. If
a shorter sampling time is set, this reduces the
remaining computation time, so that, e.g. only
3 blocks can be calculated in 2 ms with "Basic

word" to DO 1 (CU), there is no normalizing of the received process data to

p1522 and p1523:

If p1522 or p1523 of the drive is interconnected to p2050 of the drive, there

is a normalizing to 4000h during the determination of the torque.

If p1522 or p1523 of the drive is interconnected to p2050 of the CU, there is

no normalizing to 4000h during the determination of the torque
(normalizing: 1 corresponds to 100% torque).

There is no explicit information about this varying behavior in the

STARTER dialog boxes.

identification and incremental
encoder with zero mark, but without
absolute position (without C/D track,
not EnDat encoder), the
'commutation with zero mark' (fine
synchronization) is not automatically
activated via p404.15.
AP00660609 No track monitoring with listed TTL
encoders
In contrast to the CANopen specification, the "Restore all parameters" or
"Restore communication parameters" command is executed as follows for
the SINAMICS: After writing object 0x1011, subindex 1 or 2, the
corresponding objects are set to their default values directly in the RAM. If
the "Reset node" or "Reset communication parameters" is transmitted, the
values of the objects still saved on the CF card are loaded to the RAM again.
The SINAMICS is now configured again as it was before the Restore
commands.
The CU305CAN is in the CANopen drive state "Operation enable". The
motor turns. The NMT command "Reset communication" is issued. After the
boot-up message, there is an immediate change to the NMT status
"OPERATIONAL". The error bit of the CANopen status word still displays
error F8701 for one cycle although this has been automatically
acknowledged.
PZD MDI_vel and MDI_decc are missing in the diagnostics display for
PROFIBUS message frame 110.
During an interruption of the PROFIBUS connection between the control
unit (PROFIBUS master) and the drive unit (unplug DP plug from control
unit) and simultaneous (online) link with the STARTER, error message

encoder errors via PROFIBUS" is not supported. In parameter r483 "CO:
The actual encoder position value Gn_XIST2 / Geb Gn_XIST2" is,
therefore, always shown as an error code with value 1 = encoder error if an
error message is reported.
When using a synchronous motor with selected pole position identification
and incremental encoder with zero mark, but without absolute position
(without C/D track, not EnDat encoder), the 'commutation with zero mark'
(fine synchronization) is not automatically activated via p404.15.
In the selection of a TTL encoder from the encoder list (e.g. p0400 = 3002),
the track monitoring (p0405 bit 2) is switched off.
If the SINAMICS is to ramp up with its default
values after Power OFF/ON or "Reset", the
default values must be saved to the CF card via
object 0x1011 after writing object 0x1010. If it
is sufficient to have the default values only in
the RAM, only object 0x1011 has to be
written. After a reconfiguration has been
performed, the values can be written to the CF
card with object 0x1010.
Delay the "OPERATIONAL" command after
the "Reset communication" command for three
CAN cycles or ignore the error bit in the first
cycle after switching to OPERATIONAL.

Error message F30662 (error with internal
communications) can be acknowledged only
through a power ON of the control unit.
Switch off or disconnect PROFIsafe master
until PROFIsafe addresses have been corrected
in the drive. The PROFIsafe addresses
(p9610/9810) in the drive must match the
address parametrized in the PROFIsafe master.
The fine synchronization must be manually
configured with the following sequence: p0010

with zero mark)

If during the STARTER commissioning, the brake of a drive with SMI
components is set to "Motor holding brake always open" (see p1215), the
value is reset to "Motor holding brake acc. to sequential control" in the drive
after the parameter download.
When using asynchronous motors, current controller gain may be too large
considering the existing motor data identification.
Very sporadically alarms F1711 and F30711 with fault value 58 occur when
selecting the extended safety function SS1. The error occurs at the time
when, because of a time condition (p9556) or the speed/velocity attained
(p9560), the STO response is triggered. The error can be acknowledged via
the safe acknowledgement (PROFIsafe: Internal event acknowledge,
TM54F: p10006). In SW V02.50.xx.xx this acknowledgement must be
performed before the deselection of SS1.

Checksum error, safety monitoring functions).
If p9500 (SI Motion Monitoring Cycle Control Unit) unequal p9300 (SI
Motion Monitoring Cycle Motor Module) is set due to incorrect
parameterization, then error message F30711 as well as the incorrect error
message F30665 (SI MM: System Defect) will be ouput after a parameter
reset on the control unit with p972 = 1 or after a power OFF/ON. The same
also applies to other parameters (p9511/p9311..) of the Safety screen

p0010 = 4
p0400 = 9999
p0405.2 = 1
p0010 = 0
p1215 can be set directly to the desired value
after the download.
Considering the existing motor data
identification of asynchronous motors, the
current controller gain (p1715) must be
checked and corrected if need be. For
checking, the reference frequency response
must be taken over for the current controller.
The error can be completely avoided with the
following measures: 1.) Trigger an STO in
good time before the transition time from SS1
to STO expires (p9556, p9356) 2.) Use SS2
and switch to STO after the feedback message
SOS active 3.) Use the SS1 function of the
basic safety functions
Perform the parameterization exclusively via
the STARTER screens.
If error message F30665 is output with error
message F30711 (cross-checking error) and if
parameterization p9500 is unequal to p9300 or
(p9511/p9311..), then the parameterization in
p9500 and p9300 or (p9511/p9311..) must be
corrected in such a way that the monitoring
cycle settings match the cycle settings. Error
message F30665 can be ignored in this case.
