Adapting the number of drives

When an NCU or NX module is inserted, the appropriate number of drive objects (incl.
appropriate configured telegrams) that the associated NCU or NX module supports are
inserted automatically. These standard settings correspond to the standard settings in the NCK
(e.g. configurable via SINUMERIK Operate).
Even if you use fewer than the maximum number of drives of an appropriate NCU or NX
module, you do not need to make any changes here.
If, however, for specific reasons, you make adaptations, you must make them both in the TIA
Portal for the PLC and for the NCK (e.g. via SINUMERIK Operate).
Information concerning the commissioning of SINUMERIK Operate is contained in the Base
Software and Operating Software Commissioning Manual.
Procedure
Proceed as follows to adapt the number of drives:
1. Select the device in the device view:
– To configure the drive objects of the SINAMICS Integrated of an NCU, select SINAMICS
– To configure the drive objects of an NX, select the NX.
2. In the inspector window, click "Telegram configuration" under "Properties > General".
3. You can delete and add drive objects or add individual telegrams under "Telegram
configuration".
– To delete a drive object, right-click the drive object and select "Delete" in the shortcut
– To add a drive object, click the "<Add new drive object>" command in the "Name"
– To add a user-defined telegram, click the "<Add new telegram>" command in the "Name"

Drive
Here you assign a number for the F-I/O DB.
The adjustable value range depends upon the value range for DBs set in the Safety
Administration Editor (area "Settings > Assign numbers for F-system blocks"), or is
automatically managed by the F-system.
The name of the F-I/O DB is displayed here.
The start address is part of the F-I/O DB-name of this telegram. If you change the
start address, the F-I/O DB-number will also be changed.
The F-I/O DBs are located at the following point in the project navigation: "Con‐

> F-I/O DBs"
