Solution Requirements
The solution must fulfill the following points:
▪ Only one S7 connection is used
▪ 4 different data packages are to be transferred at 4 different areas
in the target CPU.
▪ The transfer must be performed in sequences, i.e. all components
of a sequence must have been transmitted before a new package
is transmitted.

Quantity framework of the sample application:


Table 1-1
1. Area 2. Area 3. Area 4. Area
Data quantity 100 bytes 700 bytes 2500 bytes 4700 bytes

The selected data quantities are user-defined and can be changed in the
sending and receiving application.
For data transfer, the functions BSEND and BRECEIVE are used for coor-
dinated data transfer via a configured connection.

3 Function Mechanisms and Program Structures
This chapter briefly explains the functionalities based on the S7 protocol
and their possible usage in an application.
Furthermore, it gives a detailed description of the BSEND and BRECEIVE
services used in this example application and discusses system specific
properties in detail.

3.1 The S7 protocol specifications

Physical independence of the S7 protocol


The S7 is a physically independent protocol, i.e. it is not bound to a network
such as Profibus or Industrial Ethernet.
It enables connections between two partners via the following physical net-
works:
▪ MPI
▪ Industrial Ethernet
Copyright © Siemens AG 2005 All rights reserved

▪ PROFIBUS
20987358_BSEND_PB_DOKU_v10_e

Position of the S7 protocol in the ISO / OSI reference model

Fig. 3-1
The protocol itself is located in the ISO / OSI 7 layer reference model for
communication on level 7, as the used interface of the system is merely
based on application data. Services for managing the connections or for
converting the data are not necessary, as these are provided by functions
of the operating system.

Rev. A- Final 22.01.2004 7/33


Characteristic performance data of S7 protocol services
From a user point of view, the S7 protocol consists of the following ser-
vices:
• BSEND / BRCV
• USEND / URCV
• PUT / GET
The following table contains an overview of the respective performance
data for the S7 families. The colored service is the topic of this Getting Star-
tet and is discussed in greater detail below.

3.2 Configuration of a S7 connection

The S7 protocol is based on fixed configured connections stored within the


automation device. One as well as several connections to one connection
partner can be configured.
The following connection configurations are possible and can be used by
the following services:

Rev. A- Final 22.01.2004 8/33


Overview
Table 3-2: Possible connection configurations and services.
Service Configuration
PUT / GET (Read / Write) Unilaterally configured connection
USEND / URECEIVE Bilaterally configured connection
BSEND / BRECEIVE Bilaterally configured connection
For illustrating the structure within the automation devices a brief overview
of both configuration types:

Unilaterally configured connection


Unilaterally configured connection refers to a connection exclusively only
on the active site within the configuration.
Based on this principle, a fixed connection resource for the communication
is only assigned on the “active” side . The “passive“ side reacts to the re-
quest by the active partner and thus requires a resource only if that partner
establishes a connection.
A one-sidedly configured connection can be exclusively used for Write –
Copyright © Siemens AG 2005 All rights reserved

Read services. Those have been realized in the S7 controller as “PUT“ and
20987358_BSEND_PB_DOKU_v10_e

“GET“.

Bilaterally configured connection


Configurations with a fixed connection between both partners are consid-
ered bilaterally configured connections. This also depends on whether both
partners exist in the same Step 7 project.
The connection configuration causes both partners to reserve a fixed con-
nection resource for this communication, irrespective of whether the com-
munication partner is physically approachable or not.
For bilaterally configured connections two different services are available,
one uncoordinated (USEND / URECEIVE) and a block orientated (BSEND /
BRECEIVE) send/ receive service.

3.3 User Interface (block oriented service)

Overview
User interfaces of the S7 protocols can be divided into 3 groups:
• Read and write services
Read and write services have been realized within the S7 protocols as
“PUT“ and “GET“. They enable data to be read from or written to a control-
ler in a simple manner.
• Uncoordinated send and receive services

Rev. A- Final 22.01.2004 9/33


Uncoordinated send or received services are capable of exchanging a
block asynchronous and bi-directionally between two controllers using a bi-
laterally configured connection.
• Block oriented send and receive services
In the following chapters the block oriented send and receive services are
viewed individually.

namically with parameters.

Rev. A- Final 22.01.2004 11/33


Description for “BSEND“
The SFB / FB 12 sends data to a distant partner – SFB / FB of the “BRCV“
type. During this data transfer, a larger amount of data can be transported
between the communication partners than possible with all other communi-
cation SFBs / FBs for configured S7 connections.
The transferred data areas are divided into sections corresponding to the
frame conditions of the used subnetwork. Each segment is sent to the part-
ner individually and acknowledged by the function block SFB / FB “BRCV“
which runs there.
As a limiting factor, only one SD parameter is possible in the S7 300.

20987358_BSEND_PB_DOKU_v10_e

The block only becomes ready for receiving after calling the control param-
ter EN_R with a value of 1 (TRUE). Setting the parameter to 0 (FALSE)
cancels the currently running job or prevents a new send request from the
sender by means of a respective error message, partner SFB / FB has the
wrong status.
As a limiting factor, only one RD parameter is possible in the S7 300.
Note
Please note that parameters SD_1 and RD_1 of the blocks interconnected via ID
and R_ID have been concordantly defined by you in
• length (LEN) and
• data type

Consistency consideration for block-oriented send/ receive functions


Data are consistent as soon as they meet the consistency requirements
given for a data base.
The consistency requirement in case of the data transfer is completeness.
Data which were transferred completely, can be considered as consistent.
In case of the block oriented send/receive functions, functions are used on
both sides, therefore the sending and receiving sides have to be consid-
ered separately.

Rev. A- Final 22.01.2004 13/33


Table 3-1
Page Consistency
Send side In order to guarantee the data consistency of the data to
be transferred, the data area in the SD_1 send area must
not be written to for as long as the current send proce-
dure is running.
The completion of the current send procedure is indicated
by the status parameter DONE == TRUE.
Receiving side The transferred data are consistently provided in the tar-
get area as soon as the status parameter NDR takes on
the value TRUE. Prior to the next start of the receive
block, data need to be saved or the received data be
evaluated.
As soon as the receive block is started with an EN_R ==
TRUE, the target area can again, at least partially, be
written to.

3.4 Logical core structures – An example

Introduction
This example illustrates in a simple manner how, via one S7 connection,
data from four different source areas of an automation device can be trans-
ferred exclusively to several target areas of a remote automation device,
using the address parameter R_ID.
The following graphic illustrates the processes realized in this example.

Rev. A- Final 22.01.2004 14/33


Data flow model

20987358_BSEND_PB_DOKU_v10_e

Fig. 3-10

Significance of address parameter R_ID


For referencing data paths within a bilaterally configured connection the pa-
rameter R_ID is available in addition to the services USEND /URECEIVE
and BSEND / BRECEIVE.
This parameter is used for sub-addressing receive paths within a connec-
tion and can thus be compared with a TSAP of the FDL – or ISO transport
protocol.
Such a sub-addressing is meant to prevent using a different connection,
hence resource, for each transferred data set.
This principle can be visualized as a letter box. An S7 connection corre-
sponds to street name and house number, the R_ID corresponds to the
name on the letter box.
This example application uses this functionality.

Description of the processes


In the application, BSEND blocks are successively called on the send side
which transfer between 100 and 4700 bytes via an S7 connection using dif-
ferent R_IDs.
The initial send call is set by a trigger in the form of an input edge. Each fur-
ther send request is started by the status parameter DONE of the previous
BSEND block.

Rev. A- Final 22.01.2004 15/33


After running through all 4 BSEND calls, the sending is terminated.
On the receiving side, 4 BRCV blocks run successively which directly refer
to the BSEND blocks running on the sending side.

3.5 Program structures

In the following chapter the setup and structure of the example is discussed
on the function and datablock level of the automation system.

Presentation of block structure

20987358_BSEND_PB_DOKU_v10_e

Fig. 3-11

Description of block structure


For a quick illustration of principal functionalities, a simple structure is used
in this example.
All of the 4 send and receive blocks are directly called from the OB 1 and
therefore run cyclically.
For each FB / SFB definitely assigned instance data blocks are generated.
In the sending station, the data are taken from a “large“ data block and
stored into 4 different data blocks of the target station by the receive blocks.

Rev. A- Final 22.01.2004 16/33


On the sending side, each individual send block in OB1 must be started
successively in a step chain, as active parallel operation on one connection
is not possible.
On the receive side, the receive blocks run parallel, as this has no impact
on the protocol behavior and represents the most simple method of supply-
ing target areas.
Note
The receive blocks cannot, from the start of the CPU on, run on TRUE by means of
an EN_R, as they must first be initialized. This requires a run with EN_R equal
FALSE.

Flowchart Description
Each of the four BSEND blocks has the following
structure, illustrated at the example of the BSEND
number 1:
If the function is started or a send request still ex-
ists, the BSEND block is performed with REQ equal
TRUE, whereby all other BSENDs are processed
with REQ equal FALSE.
Each one of the four BSEND requests has its own
instance data block which was configured for this
call only.
If there is no send request, the BSEND block with
REQ equal FALSE is called which is equal to it not
being processed.

If successfully sent, the local REQ of the send re-


quest is reset and the send request of the next
block is started. In case of a failure, the status in-
formation is temporarily stored and the step chain

interrupted.

Fig. 3-12

Describing the BSEND call


Each individual BSEND call is divided into two networks, the first network
prepares the user data length for the function call. The second network per-
forms the function call and checks the returned values.
The first network defines the length of the data to be transferred in a data
section, in this case “Send1_Length“. This is necessary as the parameter
LEN of the BSEND block is an input/ output parameter and must therefore
be describable, which is not possible with a default value.
In the second network, the BSEND function is called. The control parame-
ter are default, except for the REQ control parameter. The output parame-
ters are supplied with variables which are evaluated after executing the
block. The input/ output parameters are supplied according to the planned
length to be transferred.
After successful execution of the function, which is indicated by the output
parameter DONE, the local REQ control parameter is reset and the REQ
control parameter of the next block is set.
In case of a failure, indicated by the parameter ERROR, the status pending
at that moment is temporarily saved in a memory word.
