Limitations when using Siemens controls: 1. Reading consistent data of a DP norm slave using SFC 14 "DPRD_DAT" Your CPU might be able to read consistent data via the process image of the inputs. Please refer to the manual Automatisierungssystem S7-300: Aufbauen to find out whether your S7-300 CPU supports this feature. All S7-400 CPUs support this feature. (As of: Januray 2008)
2. Writing data consistently on DP norm slave using SFC 15 "DPWR_DAT" Your CPU might be able to write consistent data via the process image of the outputs. Please refer to the manual Automatisierungssystem S7-300: Aufbauen to find out whether your S7-300 CPU supports this feature. All S7-400 CPUs support this feature. (As of: January 2008)
3. Minimum requirement STEP 7 from version 5.x onwards with connection of S-HER082 / S-HER-AM-DP / S-HER-UN-DP-IO / S-HER-UN-DP-BELIMO / S-HER-UN-DP-Grundfos / S-HER-UN-DP-WILO (As of: 14 June 2006)
Gateways: DIP switch position The 4 DIP switches of the gateways (S-HER-UN-DP-BELIMO / GRUNDFOS / WILO) must be in the off-position. Otherwise the display will show a test menu, the LEDs will blink and the gateways will not go online on the PROFIBUS. Gateway-Korrekte-DIP-Schalter-Stellung.pdf (As of: 31 July 2006)
Limitations with regard to the use of Beckhoff controls: Up to and including version Build 1307 the problem regarding the correct interpretation of Hex numbers exists: Connection of S-HER082 / S-HER-AM-DP / S-HER-UN-DP-IO / S-HER-UN-DP-BELIMO / S-HER-UN-DP-Grundfos / S-HER-UN-DP-WILO modified GSD files upon request. (As of: 16 November 2006)
S-HER-UN-DP-BELIMO gateway: A maximum of 4 UST-3 manufactured by the company BV-Control (Switzerland) can be connected to a gateway. (As of: 11 April 2006)
Limitations with regard to the use of Saia-Burgess controls: From Firmware 1.24D onwards Saia PCD can be updated during operation when using the gateway. If older versions are used, the Saia-Burgess CPU has to be reset / re-started. (As of: 23 June 2008)
