[?]: MM440 profibus Communication

Post by saravanan_tsvk » Thu Sep 15, 2011 12:57 pm

Hi,

I am working on a project where I need to communicate between MM440 and S7 PLC via profibus.

I have established the communication and configured the MM440 in Hardware configuration with 4 PZD's ( Process Data's).
The P2051 ( PZD to CB) is configured in such a way thats the structure of 4 words are,

Code: Select all

1st word = Status word
2nd word = Actaul Frequecny
3rd word = Actual Current
4th Word = Output Voltage
I am getting the values in the Process data words which is in the IEEE format and that cannot be directly shown in the HMI & SCADA.

For Example I am getting value 6048 in the 3rd word, but the actual current is 1.4 A.

Can anyone please help me to find a solution for converting the IEEE format into Real format. If possible please upload the program to convert the IEEE to Real.

First, you try to read double word value (Real and IEEE are 32-bit) into single word (PZD is 16-bit).
Second, I think you have to use PKW mechanism instead of PZD data words.
