3.1  Commissioning procedure 
Operational sequence 
The commissioning procedure is divided into two parts: 
1. Create a STEP 7 project and make the settings of the technology CPU for the connected 
hardware using the HW Config and S7T Config programs. Special attention is placed on 
the parameterizations that must be performed both in the technology CPU and in the 
SINAMICS S120. 
2. Parameterize SINAMICS S120, create drives and axes. The base device commissioning 
required for the connection to the technology CPU is also described here. 
The following sections describe these settings in detail, both for the technology CPU as well 
as the SINAMICS S120. 
3.2  Connecting hardware components 
3.2.1  PROFIBUS interconnection 
Introduction 
Connect the programming device to the PROFIBUS X1 terminal and the 
SINAMICS S120 drive system to the PROFIBUS DP (DRIVE) X3 terminal 
of the Technology CPU.
