Legal information

Warning notice system

This manual contains notices you have to observe in order to ensure your personal safety, as well as to prevent damage to property. The notices

referring to your personal safety are highlighted in the manual by a safety alert symbol, notices referring only to property damage have no safety

alert symbol. These notices shown below are graded according to the degree of danger.

DANGER

indicates that death or severe personal injury will result if proper precautions are not taken.

WARNING

indicates that death or severe personal injury may result if proper precautions are not taken.

CAUTION

indicates that minor personal injury can result if proper precautions are not taken.

NOTICE

indicates that property damage can result if proper precautions are not taken.

If more than one degree of danger is present, the warning notice representing the highest degree of danger will be used. A notice warning of injury

to persons with a safety alert symbol may also include a warning relating to property damage.

Qualified personnel

The product/system described in this documentation may be operated only by personnel qualified for the specific task in accordance with the

relevant documentation, in particular its warning notices and safety instructions. Qualified personnel are those who, based on their training and

experience, are capable of identifying risks and avoiding potential hazards when working with these products/systems.

Proper use of SIMATIC products

Overview of the comparison list

•Measuring runtime of instructions and program parts (see below)

•Loading objects to the CPU: which changes and which changed blocks you can load to the CPU in which

operating mode. (next page)

•Overview, requirements, framework conditions and legends to the comparison list (page 7)

•Comparison list for S7-300, S7-400, S7-1200, S7-1500 including CPU 150xS software controller:

Which instructions and functions can be used for which controller family. (from page 8)

•Annex: Optional instructions for SIMATIC Ident

Measuring runtime of instructions and program parts

The runtime of parts of the user program and instructions depend on numerous factors. A tabular list is therefore not possible.

The RUNTIME (runtime measurement) instruction is used to measure the runtime of the entire program, individual blocks or

command sequences. The runtime measurement starts with the first call of the RUNTIME instruction and ends with the

second call.

For the runtime measurement of individual instructions, you use an OB priority >15. As a result, “Monitor online” does not

falsify the runtime. You can find additional information in the SIMATIC STEP 7 online help. Enter “Runtime” in the search box.

Program example in SCL:

“Common_Data“.opt.Last_Cycle := RUNTIME(#Tag_Memory); //Start of runtime measurement, LReal

“speed test FB opt_DB”(ON_2:=“i1”,…);//Runtime measurement through RUNTIME

“Common_Data”.opt.Last_Cycle := RUNTIME(#Tag_Memory); //End of runtime measurement

The Last_Cycle tag contains the time that has elapsed between the previous call and the current call of RUNTIME.

A5E33285102-AB Page 4

Loading objects to the CPU

The table shows which changes and which changed blocks can be loaded in which operating mode.

Very complex programs can prevent loading in RUN mode. Possible solutions:

•Use a memory card with sufficient capacity.

•Select a CPU with sufficient work memory.

•Reduce the number of changed used blocks, constants, PLC tags or data types.

Applicable with limitations

Not necessary

gray

We recommend that you do not use the grayed out instructions in the S7-1200 or S7-1500, as these instructions

are unsuitable for symbolic addressing or multiple instances. SIMATIC counters and timers are not

recommended, as they are not multi-instance capable.

Xyz

New instruction as of SIMATIC STEP 7 V13.

For this purpose, SIMATIC S7-1200 requires at least firmware 4.0 and SIMATIC S7-1500 at least firmware 1.5

Xyz

New instruction as of SIMATIC STEP 7 V13 SP1.

For this purpose, SIMATIC S7-1200 requires at least firmware 4.1 and SIMATIC S7-1500 at least firmware 1.7

Xyz

Also available as safety instruction in the optional safety package in LAD and FBD.
