Procedure

3. Step: Commissioning hardware

1. Use the PG cable to connect the programming device to the CPU. When using a cable with PROFIBUS connectors, remember to switch on the integrated terminating resistors. Close the front panel cover of the CPU, then set the mode selector switch on the CPU to STOP. 2. Connect the mains cable, then switch on the power supply module PS 307. The DC24V LED on the power supply is lit. All the LEDs on the CPU light up briefly; the SF LED and the DC5V LED stay lit. The STOP LED then flashes slowly to indicate a CPU memory reset. 3. Perform a CPU memory reset: Turn the mode switch to MRES. Hold the mode selector at this position until the STOP LED lights up for the second time and then remains lit (approx. 3 seconds). Then release it. You must press the mode switch back to MRES within 3 s. The STOP LED begins to flash rapidly and the CPU performs a reset. You can now release the mode switch. The CPU has completed the memory reset when the STOP LED remains permanently lit again. 4. Start your programming device, then run SIMATIC Manager from your Windows Desktop. A window opens with SIMATIC Manager. 5. Select button 1. The LED of I124.1 lights up. No DO LED lights up. 6. Select button 2. The LED of I124.2 lights up. No DO LED lights up.
