Siemens S5

1) How to start with an S5 software, working on-line with PLC

- If program is not installed on hard-disk, use Norton Commander: .C:\> NC↵↵↵↵

. Select the left window in STEP5, then USER;

. Select the right window as drive A: press ALT+F2, then A;

. Point the machine file (e.g.: L97080ST.S5D), then press F5 (copy)+<↵↵↵↵>

. The file is now on hard disk.

- With MS-DOS prompt using CD command or using NortonCommander, select the directory were the machine file is located:

C:\> CD C:\STEP5\USER ↵↵↵↵

- Start S5 as follow:

C:\STEP5\USER\> S5↵↵↵↵

- The following screen appears:

- If you are connected to the PLC, the MODE has to be change from OFF to ON. Use cursorkeys to move to cursor on the MODE field, then press <F3> to change the mode. If ON-LINE does not appear, you are maybe not connected with the cable or the CPU is notpowered.

- When everything is preset on that screen, press <F6> or <INS> key to accept settings.

3) How to ?

3.1 - How to reset the CPU:

- Stop the CPU- From the main menu, select <F7> AUX FCT

F 1 ¦ F 2 ¦ F 3 ¦ F 4 ¦ F 5 ¦ F 6 ¦ F 7 ¦ F 8TRANSFER ¦ DELETE ¦ DIR ¦ ¦ ¦PRG FILE ¦ ¦ RETURN

- Press <F2> DELETE

DELETE FROM SOURCE: BLOCK:

- Type: SOURCE: PC BLOCK: A then press <INS>

3.2 - How to transfer blocs:

- From the main menu, select <F7> AUX FCT

F 1 ¦ F 2 ¦ F 3 ¦ F 4 ¦ F 5 ¦ F 6 ¦ F 7 ¦ F 8TRANSFER ¦ DELETE ¦ DIR ¦ ¦ ¦PRG FILE ¦ ¦ RETURN

- Press <F1> TRANSFER

TRANS SOURCE: BLOCK: TO DEST: BLOCK:

examples:

transfer FB 10 from the file to CPU: TRANS SOURCE: FD BLOCK: FB10 TO DEST: PC BLOCK:

transfer DB 10 from the CPU to the file: TRANS SOURCE: PC BLOCK: DB10 TO DEST: FD BLOCK:

transfer all DB from the CPU to the file: TRANS SOURCE: PC BLOCK: DB TO DEST: FD BLOCK:

transfer FB 10 from the file to FB13 in the CPU: TRANS SOURCE: FD BLOCK: FB10 TO DEST: PC BLOCK: FB13

transfer DB131 to 137 from the file to CPU: TRANS SOURCE: FD BLOCK: DB131-137 TO DEST: PC BLOCK:

transfer all blocs from the CPU to the file: TRANS SOURCE: PC BLOCK: A TO DEST: FD BLOCK:

3.3 - How to Edit and modify blocs:

- From the main menu, select <F2> OUTPUT key.

F 1 ¦ F 2 ¦ F 3 ¦ F 4 ¦ F 5 ¦ F 6 ¦ F 7 ¦ F 8 ¦ BLOCK ¦ ¦SCR FORM ¦ ¦ ¦ ¦ RETURN

- Select <F2> BLOCK.

OUTPUT DEVICE: BLOCK: SEARCH: PTR:

examples:

Read FB10 from CPU and point to segment 3:OUTPUT DEVICE: PC BLOCK: FB10 SEARCH: 3 PTR:

Read FB10 from file and point to I 28.0:OUTPUT DEVICE: FD BLOCK: FB10 SEARCH: I 28.0 PTR:

Read FB10 from CPU and point to address 0230hexOUTPUT DEVICE: PC BLOCK: FB10 SEARCH: 230h PTR:

Read DB10 from file and point to DW167:OUTPUT DEVICE: FD BLOCK: DB10 SEARCH: 167 PTR:

- When reading a bloc FB or OB from a file or from the CPU, the sub-menu comes up:

F 1 ¦ F 2 ¦ F 3 ¦ F 4 ¦ F 5 ¦ F 6 ¦ F 7 ¦ F 8DISP SYMB¦REFERENCE¦ SEARCH ¦DIAGNISIS¦ADDRESSES¦ LIB NO ¦ -> LAD ¦

- you can point an operand like I 28.0 using <F3> + I28.0 + <ENTER>- you can display the lines addresses using <F5>- you can go to next or previous segment using <+> or <-> keys (<Fn+>, <Fn-> orShift<Fn+>, Shift<Fn-> on laptop).- Cursor and page keys can be used.- On the top right corner of the screen, [OUTPUT] is displayed: that means that youare just able to read the bloc.

Modify the bloc:

- When a bloc is on [OUTPUT], pressing <5> (<Fn5> or shift<Fn5> on laptop) allowsyou to modify the current bloc. [CORRECT.] is then displayed and the bottom menuis gone.

- You are allowed to modify the active segment and use cursor and pages keys.- You are not allowed to go to the next segment !!

Insert a line - Place the cursor to the line you want to move down and insert a newone.- Type <End> (<Fn End> or Shift<Fn End> on laptop)- an empty line is insert.- type the new line (e.g.: :A I28.0) the press <Enter>

Delete a line - Place the cursor to the line you want delete- Type SHIFT+TAB to move the cursor on “:”

- Press <Del> (<Fn Del> or Shift<Fn Del>)Modify a line - just overwrite the line you want to modify then press <enter>

- Press <INS> ( Fn INS on laptop) to validate the modifications: the bottom sub-menucomes again, [OUTPUT] is displayed and you can change the segment for anothermodification.THE MODIFICATIONS ARE NOT SAVED AT THAT TIME !!!!!

- Press <INS> ( Fn INS on laptop) one more time to enter all bloc modifications.- S5 ask you if you want to overwrite the existing bloc, then the existing comments:press <INS> if you want to do it, <ESC> if not !! (if you press <ESC>, yourmodifications are lost !!!)

NOTE: if you modify directly on PLC, it may happen that the CPU memory is full. Inthat case, when you ask YES to overwrite the bloc, the S5 display a message like“memory full”, and your modifications are not transferred. You have to do acompress of the memory (explained below) and do your modifications again !!!

3.4 - Get On-line bloc status:

- From the main menu, select <F3> TEST key.

F 1 ¦ F 2 ¦ F 3 ¦ F 4 ¦ F 5 ¦ F 6 ¦ F 7 ¦ F 8PROG TEST¦END TEST ¦ STATUS ¦ ¦ ¦ ¦ ¦ RETURN

- Press <F3> STATUS

STATUS BLOCK: SEARCH:

Example:

Get FB10 segment 8 status:STATUS BLOCK: FB10 SEARCH: 8

Get FB10 status where I28.0 is used:STATUS BLOCK: FB10 SEARCH: I28.0

Get FB10 status starting at the address 0123h:STATUS BLOCK: FB10 SEARCH: 123h

- If the bloc or the code is not scanned, a message is displayed on the bottom rightcorner “statement not processed”.

- If the bloc or the code is currently scanned (active), a message is displayed on thebottom right corner “Status processing active”, and you will see on the right part ofthe screen the status variables:

What means the status:RLO: Logic result of the equation (1 or 0)STATUS: Status of binary operand (e.g.: if I28.0 is ON, 1 will be displayed)ACCU1: Shows the content of ACCU 1ACCU2: Shows the content of ACCU 2
