1 Introduction
1.1 Contents of this manual
This manual contains a comprehensive description of the connection to the communication system of
circuit-breakers 3VF (communication-capable 25 - 800 A), 3WN6 (up to 3200 A), 3WS1 (up to 2500 A), and
3WN1 (up to 6300 A). A brief general introduction to PROFIBUS is provided, followed by sections including
important instructions regarding ordering, configuring and start-up for each circuit-breaker type. The
universally applicable PROFIBUS guidelines as specified by the PROFIBUS User Organization (PNO) are
included in the Appendix and can be used for planning your overall PROFIBUS-capable system.
Further detailed information on PROFIBUS and PROFIBUS system components can be found in the

1.2 Explanation of terms and advantages of "communication"
Ever increasing levels of automation mean a higher demand for information regarding the state of systems
and their components (e.g. evaluation of measured values and diagnostic data). In addition, it is also
important that field devices can be controlled directly from control rooms, thus minimizing the personnel
costs required for intervention in automation processes. The installation of a bus system allows for a simple
data exchange between field devices (e.g. 3WN6 circuit-breakers) and PLCs (e.g. SIMATIC S5/S7 PLCs).
Whereas conventional wiring technology requires many multicore control cables connected in parallel to
perform this communication task, a bus system generally only requires a single 2-core cable. This means
that substantial savings can be made in the areas of wiring (shorter installation time), testing and control
cable costs. In addition to controlling the field devices, measured values, signals and diagnostic data which
can indicate faults/problems in the plant at an early stage can easily be transferred, thereby helping to
reduce system down times (especially through preventive maintenance). The monitoring of current values
can ensure that the system is utilized economically at all times (energy management).
The communication-capable circuit-breakers 3VF (25 - 800 A), 3WN6 (up to 3200 A), 3WN1 (up to
6300 A), and 3WS1 (vacuum technology up to 2500 A) take full advantage of communication via a bus
system. The bus system used is PROFIBUS-DP (EN 50170). It permits circuit-breakers to be controlled and
monitored, or even remotely parameterized, depending on the type of overcurrent release fitted.
Two high-performance software packages are available for the visualization and evaluation of transferred
data (see page 35 for description):

1.3 Explanation of terms "PROFIBUS" and "PROFIBUS-DP"
PROFIBUS3 (PROcess FIeld BUS) is a standard (EN 50170), supplier-independent field bus system. Over
250 suppliers are already offering more than a total of 770 PROFIBUS products in their product ranges.
There are in excess of 500,000 PROFIBUS nodes installed worldwide, and PROFIBUS users are supported
worldwide by user organizations in 12 countries.
PROFIBUS consists of a 2-core cable over which signals (bits) are transferred between PLCs and field
devices in a standardized format (protocol). Up to 125 field devices can be connected to a single
PROFIBUS network. Repeaters can be used to connect bus segments making it possible to span distances
greater than 9 km using copper cables and distances up to 100 km using fiber optic cables. The length of
the individual bus segments depends on the baud rate and whether or not there are slaves present (see
Table 1). This means that different numbers of repeaters will be used depending on the type of network.

Table 1: Ranges of PROFIBUS network segments (2-core cable)
In addition to standard linear bus networks, it is also possible to utilize fiber optic technology together with
optical link modules (OLM ) to form redundant ring structures.
There are at present two forms of PROFIBUS: PROFIBUS-DP (Decentralized Peripherals) and
PROFIBUS-FMS (Field Message Specification).
PROFIBUS-FMS allows for supplier-independent communication between PLCs. Communication via the
FMS user interface puts functionality rather than reaction time into the foreground. Special user services
are therefore available for the logically structured data exchange of even very large amounts of data.
Very fast reaction times for a medium data volume are required for communication with field devices (e.g.
3WN6 circuit-breakers, SIMOCODE-DP). This can be achieved by PROFIBUS-DP. The typical
configuration of a PROFIBUS-DP network is as a mono-master system, i.e. the slaves are addressed by a
single master.
The openness of PROFIBUS offers many connection possibilities: a special interface (DP/AS-i link), for
example, allows the connection of Actuator-Sensor Interface (AS-i) network systems to PROFIBUS-DP
networks. All major PLC suppliers offer PROFIBUS-DP masters.
3 Siemens originally referred to PROFIBUS as SINEC L2.

2 3VF circuit-breakers
2.1 Design and mode of operation
2.1.1 Communication via PROFIBUS-DP
3VF circuit-breakers can communicate via PROFIBUS-DP by means of SIMOCODE-DP (Siemens
Motor Protection And Control Device - Decentralized Peripherals, or product code 3UF5). This
communication-capable branch is available for currents from 63 A to 800 A for circuit-breakers 3VF3 to
3VF7.
The circuit-breaker assumes the tasks of overload and short-circuit protection for the plant section.
SIMOCODE-DP measures the current in the feeder in the highest loaded phase and makes it available
via the bus. The customer wires control functions such as opening/closing (ON/OFF) and monitoring of
the switching state (whether the circuit-breaker is ON or OFF or whether it has tripped due to a fault)
between SIMOCODE-DP and the circuit-breaker (see section entitled "Connecting 3VF to the
communication system"). The motorized operating mechanism and internal accessories, such as alarm
and auxiliary switches, must be taken into consideration when ordering the circuit-breakers.
(See section entitled Selection and ordering data).
SIMOCODE-DP (3UF5) acts as a control and measuring unit in conjunction with the 3VF circuit-breaker.
The overload and short-circuit protection functions are not affected by the connection to SIMOCODE-DP
or by a PROFIBUS-DP failure.
SIMOCODE-DP measures the following operational data as standard and makes them available via
PROFIBUS-DP:
Maximum phase current as a % of the setting current in the highest loaded phase:
(Prerequisite: Setting current Ie of SIMOCODE-DP corresponds to setting current or rated current Ir of
the circuit-breaker. This value must be entered prior to start-up in the field "Setting current 1".)
Operational state of circuit-breaker (ON/OFF/TRIPPED = trip due to overload or short-circuit).
Event signals:
I>In Signal at upper current limit, default setting of 120 %, can be parameterized.
I<In Signal at lower current limit, default setting of 80 %, can be parameterized.
The following control commands are possible via PROFIBUS-DP:
Switch circuit-breaker ON/OFF
RESET circuit-breaker following overload or short-circuit

PROFIBUS-DP uses different data channels in order to maintain fast transmission times. In this way, up to
12 bytes can be transferred at regular intervals from SIMOCODE-DP to the automation level and up to 4
bytes can be transferred back.
The 20 bytes of diagnostic data are only transferred from SIMOCODE-DP to the automation level in the
event of a change, i.e. the diagnostic channel is event-triggered. The 213 bytes of parameter data are only
transferred to SIMOCODE-DP when the automation system is started up.
SIMOCODE-DP can operate in conjunction with any standard PROFIBUS-DP master which is capable of
reading type or GSD files and which can process the following volumes of data:
4 bytes of control data cyclically from the DP master to SIMOCODE-DP
4 or 12 bytes of signal data cyclically from SIMOCODE-DP to the DP master
20 bytes of diagnostic data acyclically from SIMOCODE-DP to the DP master
213 bytes of parameter data
In order to guarantee optimum data transfer times, the large volume of SIMOCODE-DP input and output
data is divided into two transfer modes on PROFIBUS-DP - cyclic and acyclic transfer modes:
1. Cyclic data traffic: cyclic data (e.g. actual maximum phase current ILmax in the highest loaded phase)
correspond to basic information which is transferred at regular intervals. Important information is
automatically transferred from the circuit-breaker to the I/O area of the bus master in this way. Similarly
all the important (cyclic) data contained in the I/O area of the bus master are also transferred to the
circuit-breaker.
Cyclic input data include, for example, the setting current value for overload releases (setting current
Ir), as well as the circuit-breaker remote ON/OFF command. Cyclic output data from SIMOCODE-DP
include the switching state of the circuit-breaker (ON/OFF), as well as various group signals which can
indicate whether a fault (e.g. trip due to overload or short-circuit) or a warning (e.g. current warning,
80 % or 120 %) is present.
2. Acyclic data traffic: Acyclic data are only transferred from the interface to the bus master or from the
bus master to the circuit-breaker when a request is transmitted. This means that specific messages are
sent from the bus master to the 3VF circuit-breaker when required.

(supplied with SIMOCODE-DP manual, order no. 3UF5700-0AA0-0)
Type file: Siemens-specific hardware identification (contains default parameter set)
GSD file: For non-Siemens suppliers (parameterization via bus not possible at present)
COM-PROFIBUS software for parameterization of 3UF5 via PROFIBUS-DP
Win-SIMOCODE-DP software, order no. 3RK1803-2FA02-0DA0, price: DM 399.-
Special parameter file which is transferred to the SIMOCODE-DP basic unit with Win-SIMOCODE-DP.
This parameter file defines the base type, slave address, baud rate, the control and message bytes,
and the inputs and outputs in accordance with the standard circuit diagram. This file is included in the
Win-SIMOCODE-DP software from 06/98 and can also be downloaded from the Internet at the address
"http:\\www.ad.siemens.de".
You can parameterize SIMOCODE-DP via the RS-232 interface using the handheld operator
panel or using the Win-SIMOCODE-DP software which is provided. We recommend that you use
the SIKOSTART system connecting cable (order no. 3RW2920-1DA00) for connecting the PC or
programming device to the SIMOCODE-DP system interface. Another possibility instead of using
Win-SIMOCODE-DP is offline parameterization via COM-PROFIBUS or STEP 5/STEP 7.
For offline parameterization, the required data are stored on a memory card with the help of a
programming device. This plug-in card is installed directly in the host (PLC master) and is read
by the master, e.g. IM308C, on start-up.

2.1.4 Connecting 3VF to the communication system
1.) Check that all the system components are fitted
Check that all the following system components are fitted before connecting 3VF to PROFIBUS-DP:
3VF circuit-breaker with internal accessories (alarm switch, auxiliary switch) and motorized
operating mechanism
Note: The motorized operating mechanism is needed for remote control of the circuit-breaker. If this
is not fitted, the circuit-breaker cannot be switched ON and OFF via PROFIBUS. The measurement
and warning functions are operational, however.
Suitable SIMOCODE-DP basic unit (cf. Selection table, page 17)
Connecting cable for parameterization using a PC or notebook
Diskette with type or GSD file (supplied with SIMOCODE-DP manual)
Parameter file (included in Win-SIMOCODE-DP from 6/98)
Win-SIMOCODE-DP software or 3WX36 handheld operator panel
COM-PROFIBUS software, only required for parameterization via PROFIBUS-DP
2.) Check the system requirements
The second step involves checking the following requirements for connecting 3VF to PROFIBUS-DP:
The 3VF circuit-breaker must be installed and wired in accordance with the circuit diagram on
pages 14/15.
The PROFIBUS-DP master must be present and operational.
SIMOCODE-DP must be correctly configured and installed (cf. user guide).
3.) Connect SIMOCODE-DP to PROFIBUS-DP
The bus cable can be connected to the SIMOCODE-DP 9-pin SUB-D connector using the standard
PROFIBUS-DP connector (order no. 6ES7972-0B.10), or it can be connected directly to the screw
terminals labeled "PROFIBUS-DP".
Communication System Manual 3VF Circuit-Breakers
Version 1.0 (05/98) Copyright Siemens AG 1998. All rights reserved. 13
4.) Connect SIMOCODE-DP to 3VF circuit-breaker
If the following accessories are not already fitted in the 3VF circuit-breaker, fit them before wiring:
Please follow the assembly instructions when fitting internal accessories in the circuit-breaker.
Connect SIMOCODE-DP and the 3VF circuit-breaker in accordance with the circuit diagram on
pages 14/15.
5.) Bus configuration and visualization
The handheld operator panel or a PC must be used for setting a number of parameters in SIMOCODE-DP
during the initial start-up, e.g. address and baud rate. The remaining parameters can then be set via the
bus using a PC or programming device and either the COM-PROFIBUS software or STEP 5/7. The
parameters are then stored on an EEPROM.
If SIMATIC S5 is the bus master, the bus can be configured quickly and easily using either a PC or a
SIMATIC programming device (PG) in conjunction with the COM-PROFIBUS program. In the case of
other bus masters, the appropriate devices and/or supplier-specific tools must be used.
The SIMOCODE-DP identification can be read into the bus master in the form of type or GSD files. The
following list specifies which file is required for each master:
File allocation list:4
si8031_d.200:Type file (German) for Siemens master only (e.g. IM308C ...)
si8031gd.200: Type file (German) for Siemens master only (S5-95)
siem8031.GSD GSD file (device data)
For non-Siemens suppliers of standard DP masters
Note:
You only need a GSD file if you are operating SIMOCODE-DP in conjunction with a DP master which
cannot process type files.
High-performance software is available for the visualization and evaluation of the data transferred from
3VF (see page 35 for description):
"SICAM LCC" for the visualization of complete systems implementing circuit-breakers 3VF, 3WN6,
3WN1, 3WS1, and a SIMOCODE-DP motor protection and control device. 5

Note:
Standard circuit-breaker and SIMOCODE-DP devices are used for the purposes of the overview. These
can be controlled directly from SIMOCODE-DP in the case of motorized operating mechanisms with a
rated voltage of 230 V.
If control voltages < 230 V are required for motorized operating mechanisms, additional auxiliary
contactors (relays) must be used, as the relay contacts of SIMOCODE-DP (max. load rating 5 A)
can be overloaded or damaged due to the increased current input.

Notes on the parameter file
The supplied parameter file containing defaults is intended for standard applications and can be
customized at any time. All the functions of the SIMOCODE-DP device can be exploited in full.
The following functions are pre-parameterized and are transferred via PROFIBUS-DP.
Switching the circuit-breaker ON/OFF using the motorized operating mechanism via
PROFIBUS-DP only
If the ON and OFF commands are issued simultaneously, only the OFF command is switched through.
Note: The 3VF circuit-breaker trips in the event of an overload or short-circuit and must be RESET by
issuing the OFF command. Only then can the circuit-breaker be switched on again.
Display of the actual phase current in the highest loaded phase
The default setting current values of 80 % and 120 % are set for the lower and upper current limits
respectively.
Display: 3VF has tripped due to overload or short-circuit
Display: 3VF ON/OFF

3 3WN6 circuit-breakers
3.1 Mode of operation and design
3.1.1 General mode of operation of 3WN6 circuit-breaker communication via
PROFIBUS-DP
The 3WN6 circuit-breaker is communication-capable when fitted with an overcurrent release version
D, E/F, H, J/K, N or P together with "additional functions 2" and a communication module (order
supplement Z=F01). Overcurrent releases N and P can also be fitted with a communication module
with measurement functions instead of the simple communication module (order supplement Z=F05).
This module offers an extended range of functions (cf. Fig. 3, page 26).
The connection of the 3WN6 circuit-breaker to PROFIBUS-DP is implemented by means of the
DP/3WN6 interface module. The information available on the overcurrent release is transferred to the
interface via the 3WN6 communication module (Z=F01) or the communication module with
measurement functions (Z=F05). The interface then translates these 3WN6 signals to the PROFIBUS
protocol. The interface similarly translates all the control and parameter signals which are sent from
the bus master to 3WN6 via PROFIBUS from the PROFIBUS protocol to the 3WN6-specific protocol.
Following the initial connection of 3WN6 to PROFIBUS-DP (see section 3.3, page 31), the user has
no further tasks to perform, i.e. communication is automatic.

Hardware:
-Communication-capable circuit-breaker 3WN6 (no. 1): Overcurrent releases D, E/F, H, J/K, N or
P (no. 1a) are communication-capable when fitted with "additional functions 2". (no. 1b). Unlike a
standard 3WN6, a communication-capable 3WN6 circuit-breaker has a communication module (no.
1c). When additional measurement functions are required (e.g. voltage, frequency, power), a
communication module with measurement functions (no. 1d) must be ordered instead of the simple
communication module. (Please refer to section 3.2, page 28 and section 3.1.1, page 37 for a
description of the functionality of the overcurrent release when combined with a communication
module/communication module with measurement functions.)
-Order number:6
-The type of overcurrent release ("D"..."P") can be determined from position 10 of the circuit-breaker
order number; enter a "7" in the eighth position of the order number if the circuit-breaker is to be
fitted with "additional functions 2".
-The order number supplement for the communication module is "Z=F01".
-The order number supplement for the communication module with measurement functions is
"Z=F05" instead of "Z=F01".
Example: For a draw-out circuit-breaker, complete with guide frame with overcurrent release "P",
"additional functions 2" and a communication module with measurement functions, the order
number is 3WN6 ......-7.P....-....-Z with Z=F05 +...
Note 1: If the draw-out circuit-breaker and guide frame are ordered separately, 2 order numbers are
required. In the case of a draw-out circuit-breaker without a guide frame, the sixth position of the order
number is "7":
Circuit-breaker order number: 3WN6.7.-7....-....-Z with Z=F01 or F05
Frame order number: 3WX3683-.A..0-Z with Z=R39 + ...
Note 2: The position signaling switches cannot be ordered separately with communication-capable
draw-out circuit-breakers. They are included in the scope of supply and are located on the position
display unit (bottom right) of the circuit-breaker.
Note 3: In order to remotely close a circuit-breaker via PROFIBUS, the circuit-breaker must be fitted with a
motorized operating mechanism and closing solenoid (Y1). To remotely open a 3WN circuit-breaker via
PROFIBUS, the circuit-breaker must be fitted with a shunt release of the type F1 or F2. The possible
switching commands are illustrated in Fig. 5, page 32 and Fig. 6, page 32, Step 2.
-One DP/3WN6 interface module for each 3WN6 circuit-breaker (no. 2).7
Order number: 3RK10 00-0JC80-0BA1
-A connecting cable from the SUB-D socket on the DP/3WN6 interface module to the SUB-D
socket of the 3WN circuit-breaker (no. 2a). This cable is a standard 9-pole cable (1:1 connection)
with a length of 3m and is supplied with the interface.
-Connection from the "PROFIBUS-DP" terminal of the DP/3WN6 interface module to PROFIBUS-
DP (no. 3).Two standard connectors are available for this purpose:
Order number: 6ES7 972-0BB20-0XA0
(for baud rates up to 12 Mbaud)
-24 V DC voltage supply (in acc. with DIN 19240; no. 4).
Order number: 4AV2... or 4AV3...
(See NSK catalog, section 16).
6 cf. Table 3, page 30 for examples of circuit-breaker order numbers.
7 Interface "DP/3WN6" was previously also referred to as interface "DP/RS485" and "kNS/DP".

Software:
-3.5" diskette with type/GSD file for the software connection of 3WN6 to PROFIBUS-DP (bus
configuration). This diskette (no. 2b) is supplied with the interface. Step 6, page 34 outlines which
file is to be used for which master.
-Bus master software for communication control. In order to communicate with the SIMATIC S5/S7
as bus master, a standard software block (no. 5) is required (see page 59 for a description of this
module):
Order number: 3RK1800-0AA00-0AA0
For the initial connection of a 3WN6 circuit-breaker to PROFIBUS-DP, the following hardware and
software components are additionally required:8
-A programming device (e.g. PG 740), or PC with the appropriate software (e.g. STEP 5) (no. 6)
-COM-PROFIBUS (no. 7) for the 3WN6 software interface (bus configuration) to PROFIBUS-DP.
3.2 Bus connection functionality
3WN6 output data can be read via PROFIBUS-DP:
-Circuit-breaker key data (e.g. circuit-breaker type/size, overcurrent release version)
-Operational states (e.g. switching state, "Tripped" signals, processor status)
-Operational data (e.g. actual phase current IL1)9
-Protection parameters (e.g. setting current Ir for overload release)
... and input data can be written to the circuit-breaker:
-Execute switching action (switch circuit-breaker ON or OFF)
-Set protection parameters (e.g. setting current Ir for overload release)
-Set additional functions (e.g. switch phase sensitivity ON/OFF)
8With SIMATIC S5 as master. Use appropriate hardware and software components specified by the
supplier for other, especially non-Siemens, masters.
9Because of the way current transformers work, only currents at the communication module (Z=F01)
which are greater than 18 % of the rated circuit-breaker current (In) are displayed on the release or
transferred via the bus. I = 0 applies below 18 %. Transfer always takes place in the case of the
communication module with measurement functions (Z=F05). The measuring accuracy (above 18 % In)
is +/-5 % of the measured value for the communication function (Z=F01) and +/-3 % of the measured
value for the measurement function (Z=F05). Below 18 % In. (at the measurement module), the
measured values are not identified due to "noise".

In order to guarantee optimum data transfer times, the large volume of 3WN6 input and output data is
divided into two transfer modes on PROFIBUS-DP: cyclic and acyclic transfer modes:
8 bytes of acyclic data 4 bytes of cyclic data
1 8 912
Fig. 4: 12-byte I/O channel for 3WN6
1. Cyclic data traffic: cyclic data (e.g. actual maximum phase current ILmax) correspond to basic
information which is transferred at regular intervals. Important information from the circuit-breaker is
automatically transferred from the DP/3WN6 interface to the I/O area of the bus master in this way.
Similarly all the important (cyclic) data contained in the I/O area of the bus master are also
transferred to the circuit-breaker.
Cyclic 3WN6 input data include, for example, the setting current value for overload releases (setting
current Ir), as well as the circuit-breaker remote ON/OFF command. Cyclic output data from 3WN6
include the switching state of the circuit-breaker (ON/OFF), the 3WN6 ready-to-close signal, as well
as various group signals (group fault signal, group warning signal, group error signal) which can
indicate whether a fault (e.g. trip due to overload), a warning (e.g. current warning) or a processor
error is present.
2. Acyclic data traffic: Acyclic data are only transferred from the interface to the bus master or from
the bus master to the circuit-breaker when a request is transmitted. This means that specific
messages are sent from the bus master to the 3WN circuit-breaker when required.
Acyclic data from 3WN6 (i.e. data which are requested given certain conditions) include, for
example, the position state of the circuit-breaker (e.g. test or connected for draw-out circuit-
breaker). In order to determine the cause of a group signal, for example, (see above), the actual
cause is determined by means of an acyclic message. In the case of a group fault, for example, it is
possible to determine whether the cause is due to a "g" release (earth fault), a "z" release (delayed
short-circuit), an "n" release (instantaneous short-circuit), or whether there was another cause for the
release.
Acyclic data written to 3WN6 include, for example, the setting values for "z" release, "n" release or
current phase imbalance. When used in conjunction with a communication module with
measurement functions (Z=F05), additional setting values can be written, e.g. undervoltage release,
overvoltage release or load shedding signals.
The message list in section 3.4, page 37 describes in detail the functionality of the various overcurrent
releases on PROFIBUS-DP. This will allow the user to select the required overcurrent release together with
the correct communication module (Z=F01) or communication module with measurement functions
(Z=F05). In addition, the message list contains the information required for handling the acyclic data traffic
in the bus master.
Table 3, page 30 lists a number of standard versions of communication-capable 3WN6 circuit-breakers (3-
pole) and their order numbers. The table can be used to look up the most economical solution for obtaining
the required bus functions. Ordering details for the hardware and software which is required in addition to
the circuit-breaker can be found in section 3.1.2, page 26.
Note: The recommended versions are based on standard applications using 3-pole circuit-breakers. Please
refer to the catalog "Products and Systems for Non-Fused Energy Distribution (NS PS)" for further details.

Step 1: Check that all the system components are fitted
Step 2: Check the system requirements
Step 3: Connect DP/3WN6 to PROFIBUS-DP
Step 4: Connect DP/3WN6 to 3WN6
Step 5: Connect DP/3WN6 to voltage supply
Step 6: Bus configuration
Step 7: Set bus address on DP/3WN6 interface module
Step 8: Programming of bus master and data visualization
Step 1: Check that all the system components are fitted
Check that all the following system components are fitted before connecting 3WN6 to
PROFIBUS-DP: (cf. section 3.1.1, page 26):
Communication-capable 3WN6 circuit-breaker
DP/3WN6 interface module and connecting cable from interface module to circuit-breaker (supplied
with DP/3WN6)

Step 2: Check the system requirements
The second step involves checking the following three requirements for connecting 3WN6 to
PROFIBUS-DP:
The communication-capable 3WN6 circuit-breaker must be installed and wired in accordance with
the user guide.
(When testing a draw-out circuit-breaker, this should be in the test position. For normal operation, it
should be in the connected position). When wiring, please ensure that the jumper arrangements on
the auxiliary connectors are correct (cf. Fig. 5, page 32 and Fig. 6, page 32).

The DP/3WN6 interface module must be correctly installed and connected (cf. user guide):
The compact housing of the interface module is 70 mm wide and can simply be snapped onto a
35 mm DIN rail (the interface module must not be mounted directly above the 3WN6 arcing space,
unless suitable covers have been fitted). The devices can be mounted side by side.
The earth connection of the interface module (shield signal for electronic circuit) is made using an
earth wire (2.5 mm2) and an earth terminal (order no. 8WA1001-1PF00) which is mounted on the
DIN rail immediately next to the interface module.
The cable screen of the 3WN6-DP/3WN6 connecting cable must also be earthed between the
interface module and 3WN6, e.g. by connecting it to the DIN rail, in order to comply with
interference emission standard EN 55022:1994, limit class A.
The standard length of connecting cable 3WN6-DP/3WN6 between the 3WN6 circuit-breaker and
the DP/3WN6 interface module is 3 m.
Please refer to page 89 for detailed information on the DP/3WN6 interface (technical data,
design, screening).
Step 3: Connect DP/3WN6 to PROFIBUS-DP 12
Now you can wire connector 6ES7... (up to 12 Mbaud) to the PROFIBUS-DP cable (cf. connector
user guide). Then plug the wired connector into the "PROFIBUS-DP" socket on the interface
module.
Step 4: Connect DP/3WN6 interface module to 3WN6 circuit-breaker
Connection of 3WN6-DP/3WN6 connecting cable: This cable is supplied with the interface and is
plugged into the 3WN6-DP/3WN6 adapter (9-pin SUB-D socket), which is fitted on the circuit-
breaker at the factory, and into the "DP/3WN6" (9-pin SUB-D) socket on the front of the interface
module.
Note: All communication-capable circuit-breakers (fixed-mounted), and all communication-capable
guide frames (for draw-out circuit-breakers) are fitted with a 3WN6-DP/3WN6 adapter at the factory.
This 3WN6 adapter can also be ordered as a spare part using the following order numbers:
-Adapter 3WN6-DP/3WN6 (0.4 m) for 3WN6 fixed-mounted circuit-breaker, comprising one SUB-D
socket and free cable ends, and including mounting materials.
Order number: 3WX3645-3JA00
-Adapter 3WN6-DP/3WN6 (0.4 m) for 3WN6 draw-out circuit-breaker, comprising one SUB-D socket
and free cable ends, and including microswitch (circuit-breaker detection signaling switch) and
mounting materials.
Order number: 3WX3645-3JB00
12 This assumes that conventional copper conductors are used for PROFIBUS-DP. If fiber optic
conductors are used, converters from fiber optic to copper conductors must be fitted.
Communication System Manual 3WN6 Circuit-Breakers
Copyright Siemens AG 1998. All rights reserved. Version1.0 (05/98)
34
Step 5: Connect DP/3WN6 interface module to voltage supply
Connect the 24 V DC voltage supply (DIN 19240) to the interface module: The interface module is
fitted with a 4-pole screw terminal to facilitate the through connection of the 24 V supply.
Note: In order to switch the 3WN6 circuit-breaker ON and OFF via PROFIBUS-DP, a 24 V DC
supply must be connected to auxiliary plug X400.6 (cf. Fig. 5, page 32 and Fig. 6, page 32 in Step
2). For all other functions (monitoring, remote parameterization), the 24 V DC supply to the interface
module is sufficient for supplying the communication electronics of the circuit-breaker.
Step 6: Bus configuration
If SIMATIC S5 is the bus master, the bus can be configured quickly and easily using either a PC or
a SIMATIC programming device (PG) in conjunction with the COM-PROFIBUS or COM 5431
programs. In the case of other bus masters, the appropriate devices and/or supplier-specific tools
must be used.
The object of bus configuration is to define the 3WN6 device data, the 3WN6 bus address and the
3WN6 data area (I/O area) in the bus master. The 3WN6 device data can be read into the master in
the form of type or GSD files. The following list outlines which file is required for which master:
File allocation list:13
si8032td.200:Type file (German) "COM-PROFIBUS" tool
Standard scope for Siemens master (S5-IM308B)
si8032ad.200: Type file (German) "COM-PROFIBUS" tool
Extended standard scope for Siemens master (S5-IM308C and S7)
siem8032.gsd: GSD file (device data)
Standard scope for standard DP master
Step 7: Set bus address on DP/3WN6 interface module
The bus address defined for 3WN6 in Step 6 can be set on the front panel of the DP/3WN6
interface module by means of 2 rotary switches (range 00 - 99). The rotary switch on the left (x10)
sets the tens and the rotary switch on the right (x1) sets the units for the address.
The baud rate cannot be set on the interface. It is automatically adjusted in line with the baud rate of
the bus master (e.g. SIMATIC S5).14
Note: The communication connection to the circuit-breaker is automatically set up when the
DP/3WN6 interface module is connected to the voltage supply. This power supply also activates the
circuit-breaker overcurrent release (in the case of draw-out circuit-breakers in the connected and
test positions). This permits the functionality of the slave "3WN6 circuit-breaker" to be checked and
guaranteed. In the case of draw-out circuit-breakers in the disconnected position, the circuit-breaker
state is detected using a separate microswitch (circuit-breaker detection signaling switch S20) in the
guide frame. This is then signaled to the operational DP/3WN6 interface (see also DP/3WN6 user
guide) in the form of a diagnostic message. Communication with the 3WN6 via the bus is not
possible in this case. The presence of the circuit-breaker is merely checked.
13 The type and GSD files are also available under the following modem number: 0911-737972
14 The maximum possible baud rate corresponds to the maximum baud rate of the slowest field device.
Communication System Manual 3WN6 Circuit-Breakers
Version 1.0 (05/98) Copyright Siemens AG 1998. All rights reserved. 35
Step 8: Programming of bus master and data visualization
The last step is to provide software for the bus master which enables it to communicate with the
circuit-breaker. The cyclic data of 3WN6 (cf. section 3.2, page 28) can be read and written directly
in the cyclic part of the defined I/O area (bytes 9 - 12) of the bus master (see Step 6). Acyclic data
(cf. page 37 ff.) are transferred as the result of a message request in the acyclic part of the I/O area
(bytes 1 - 8), which issues the appropriate command to 3WN6. The 3WN6 message requests are
listed in full and explained on pages 37 ff.
In the specific case of SIMATIC S5 or S7, a standard software block is available for acyclic
communication. This software can be adapted to the user-specific information and control
requirements and automatically manages the acyclic data traffic between the 3WN6 and the
SIMATIC S5/S7. Please refer to the section entitled "Description of software block required for
utilizing communication functions with SIMATIC S5 and S7" for a detailed description of this
SIMATIC S5/S7 software block. The example given for SIMATIC S5/S7 can also be used as the
basis for the programming other PROFIBUS-DP bus masters.
The data in the master are now available for use by the customer. Some form of visualization with
a user-friendly interface is generally implemented. The following standard programs are available to
the customer for this purpose:
The Win3WN615 software provides the user with the full functionality of the 3WN6 circuit-
breaker, i.e. start-up, operation and monitoring, at an attractive price:

Note: The software block for SIMATIC S5, S7 described above is included in the scope of supply
of Win3WN6.
The new "SICAM LCC"16 software makes system visualization possible for low-voltage
circuit-breakers 3VF, 3WN6, 3WN1, 3WS1 and the SIMOCODE-DP motor protection and
control device. It complements the Win3WN6 software, as it puts the system in the foreground.
SICAM LCC permits the user to create a standard visualization interface on which he can view
all the important information about the system devices on PROFIBUS-DP The software makes
this procedure simple, fast and economical for the user. Customer-specific expansions of this
standard visualization can be implemented at any time using WinCC standard software.

3.4 Displaying the data in the 3WN6 circuit-breaker
3.4.1 Addressing the 3WN6 functions on PROFIBUS-DP:
In order to guarantee optimum data transfer times, the large volume of 3WN6 input and output
data is divided into two transfer modes on PROFIBUS-DP
(see Fig. 7, page 37):
- Cyclic transfer and
- Acyclic transfer
8 bytes of acyclic data 4 bytes of cyclic data
1 8 912
Fig. 7: 12-byte I/O channel for 3WN6
Cyclic data are automatically transferred at regular intervals between the 3WN6 circuit-breaker
and the PLC. Acyclic 3WN6 data/functions, on the other hand, must be transferred/executed on
PROFIBUS-DP when required by means of a message request. A message request is defined in
the first 8 bytes (or octets) of the PLC I/O area. These message requests initiate execution of the
various functions of the 3WN6 circuit-breaker. The structure of acyclic messages is illustrated in
Fig. 8 on page 37.

Fig. 8: (Acyclic) message requests
The bytes (octets) relevant for the unique identification of the message request (= message
address) are shown on pages 39 - 51. The bytes (octets) shown in Fig. 2 are delimited by commas
(format: bytes 1 and 2, byte 3, byte 4, byte 5, byte 6, byte 7, byte 8). Only the relevant bytes are
shown, e.g. reading the rated current of the circuit-breaker uses bytes (octets) 1 to 6 (message
address = 500, 4, 0, 0, 0). Detailed examples of message requests can be found on page 54,
where you will also find a description of the request identifier, which must be used in addition to
the message address in order to differentiate between read and write requests (request identifier +
message address = complete message request).

The 3WN6 cyclic data on PROFIBUS-DP are handled directly in bytes (octets) 9, 10, 11 and 12 of
the PLC I/O area. Specific message numbers are not required (see Fig. 9, page 38 and page 52).

45)If bit OS1:2 is set (= optional trip), the "fault signals" (parameter identifier 748, 1 ,0) is registered in "group fault signal’ of the main status word and a trip
is therefore generated for all "fault signals". If bit OS1:2 = 0 (= alarm), "fault signals" do not generate a trip, they are merely registered in the "group
warning signal" of the main status word. "Fault signals" can also be individually deactivated (by setting message numbers 1:101 to 1:106 to 0).
46)If bit OS1:0 is set, an earth fault is registered in the "group fault signal" and a circuit-breaker trip is generated if an earth fault occurs. If bit OS1:0 = 0 (=
alarm), the occurrence of an earth fault is registered in the "group warning signal" of the main status word, and no trip is generated in this case.

(= 1) of one bit of "warning signals" (message 1:3, Seite 44) is set and "group fault signal" is set if one bit of "Tripped signals" (message
1:2, page 43) is set. An additional option for releases N and P when used in conjunction with the communication module with measurement
functions (Z=F05) is to apply the "fault signals" (message 1:8, Page 50) to either the "group warning signal" (for OS1:2 = 0) or the "group
fault signal" (for OS1:2 = 1) by means of "additional functions 1" (message 1:121, Page 50).
52)Acknowledgement either by means of "Clear" button on the release unit or by means of bit 8 of the circuit-breaker output data. The
acknowledgement generates a reset of the group fault signal and of all "Tripped" signals for which the trip cause is no longer present.

value "01100001110". Similarly the binary values "00000101" (= 5), "00000000" (= 0), "00010110" (= 22)
and "00000000" (= 0) must be entered in bytes 3, 4, 5 and 6 respectively. Finally, the binary code for
25000 (the setting current), i.e. "0110000111101000", must be written in bytes 7 and 8.
Example 2: Message request: Read a read-write value
Message address 782, 5, 0, 22, 0, is also used to read the "z" release setting current. The same values
as in example 1 are written in bytes 1 to 6 here (with the exception of the request identifier). Because this
is a read request, the request identifier = 1 and bits 15 to 12 contain the binary value "1" (0001). No
entries are necessary in bytes 7 and 8. These bytes will be used to store the read value of the "z" release
setting current.
Example 3: Message request: Read a read-only value
The procedure for reading read-only values (e.g. operational data) is the same as for read-write values,
i.e. the request identifier and the listed message address are written to bytes 1, 2, ... of the PLC I/O area
of 3WN6. If, for example, the circuit-breaker state (T-Nr. 1:1) is to be read, then the request identifier
must be set to 1 (byte 1), the value "741" must be entered in bytes 1 and 2, the value "1" in byte 3 and
the value "0" in byte 4. These values must be entered in binary code. The read value for circuit-breaker
state is stored in bytes 5, 6, 7 and 8.
Important notice: Only the cyclic data from the 3WN6 circuit-breaker (see pages 52 ff.) are regularly
updated in the PLC I/O area. Acyclic data are read on request only. If, for example, byte (octet) 9 of the
I/O area contains a "group fault signal" (bit 8 = 1), then the "Tripped signals" (and possibly the "fault
signals" in the case of releases N and P with Z=F05) will need to be read for a more detailed fault
analysis.

3.4.5 Time response of data traffic
The time response of 3WN6 data traffic via PROFIBUS-DP is outlined in detail on the following
pages with reference to the different data which are transferred (acyclic, cyclic, circuit-breaker key
data, circuit-breaker functions ...). Please note that the PROFIBUS-DP cycle times which are implicit
in the specified time values generally depend on the number of slaves, i.e. values can vary.
This simple rule of thumb generally applies: To read
approx. 0.5 seconds, to write approx. 1 second, to write
and check approx. 2 seconds.
The various items of data present in 3WN6 are updated at different intervals depending on their
importance.

3.5.2 Displaying data in PROFIBUS-DP
Any standard PROFIBUS-DP master can exchange data with the interface module. Even very "simple"
master interfaces can be used thanks to the data structure.
3.5.2.1 Parameterization
The interface module does not support any user-specific parameter data in the PROFIBUS-DP
parameter message.
3.5.2.2 Configuration
Two configurations can be used for operating the interface module, both with 12 bytes but in one case
with data integrity over the entire length and in the other without data integrity. The configuration with
data integrity must be used for this program as messages can otherwise be corrupted. Configuration
without data integrity is only available for use by the cyclical data of the message.

3.5.3 STEP 5 program
The function and data blocks required for utilizing the full scope of communication are supplied on
diskette. An example illustrates how these blocks are integrated in an existing S5 program and how
they are adapted in line with local conditions.
Attention: The following versions are required if the program is to function properly:
3WN6 interface module: old hardware version (PROFIBUS outgoing circuit on base) 2, new
hardware version (PROFIBUS outgoing circuit on top) 1
Type file/GSD file: V1.1
3.5.3.1 Brief outline of software block tasks
This program automates the message traffic from the PLC (via DP master) to the circuit-breaker (via
interface module). A request can be entered in the list of read requests to be processed by setting only
one bit. The requests in this list are processed consecutively and are inserted in the acyclic part of the
message. The handling of message numbers and associated parameter subindices is no longer
necessary. The software block takes care of all this. This also applies to the reading of circuit-breaker
data, which are read in once by setting the relevant bits. The parameterization of new values in the
circuit-breaker is performed by simply entering the new values in a specific position.
The software block handles the complex management of message numbers etc. in all three tasks and
the user now only needs to set bits to enable requests for read operations or to enter new values in
order to perform write operations.
3.5.3.2 Preparing to use the software block
The user must load the required function blocks in line with the PROFIBUS-DP master he is using, e.g.
FB192 for IM 308-C (Attention: CPU-dependent block!) or the data handling blocks "SYNC", "SEND",
"RECEIVE" and "CONTROL" for CP5431. Data integrity over the entire length must be guaranteed
independently of the CPU and the DP master.
No special access technology is required here when CP5431 is used. However, prior to calling FB10,
DHB SEND must be called up followed by DHB RECEIVE, in order to the define the trigger points for
data integrity. Synchronization must also be performed using DHB SYNC on start-up.
3.5.3.3 General information and adaptations
The user can adapt the software as required.
The software kernel comprises 6 function blocks (FBs):
FB10 Name: ROOT3WN6 Request processing and calls for required FBs
FB81 Name: REC Reads response to transferred T-Nr.
FB82 Name: SEND Writes parameter for transferred T-Nr.
FB100 Name: LESE WCC Defines new T-Nr. for cyclic reading of operational data
FB101 Name: SCHREIBEN Defines new T-Nr. for writing of operational data
FB102 Name: LESEN Defines new T-Nr. for reading circuit-breaker data
Request processing (FB10) defines the type of the next request, e.g. whether operational data are to be
read or written. FB10 then ensures that the next messages of this type are detected and transferred to
the 3WN6 interface. Values which are read are stored in a data block and values to be written are
fetched from a data block and transferred to the circuit-breaker. If neither writing (parameterization) nor
reading of circuit-breaker key data (message group 0) is active, the data which are read out (in DBG1)
are copied into DBSZ and DBAT, in order to permit "parameterization from below" (via the RS-232
interface on the 3WN6 release).
Communication System Manual 3WN6 Circuit-Breakers
64 Copyright Siemens AG 1998. All rights reserved. Version 1.0 (02/98)
The FBs SEND and REC are assigned to data blocks when they are called. DB80 contains the
message headers for message group 0 and DB81 contains the message headers for message group 1.
These blocks are structured such that the basic data word (DW no.) can be calculated as follows for a
message number (T-Nr.):
DW no. = 2 x T-Nr.
The parameter identifier is stored in the basic data word. The following data word contains the
parameter subindex.
The data to be sent and the data to be received (to/from 3WN6) are also stored in data blocks (in the
example: DB230 and DB220).
Block call structure of example:
Contents and function of data blocks:
DB80 DB header, assignment of parameter identifier for message group 0
DB81 DB header, assignment of parameter identifier for message group 1
DB210 (DBG0) Storage locations for read circuit-breaker data
DB220 (DBG1) Storage locations for read operational data of circuit-breaker (actual values!)
DB230 (DBSZ) Storage locations for operational data to be sent to the circuit-breaker

3.5.3.3.1 Adaptation to master module
Adaptation to the DP master module is performed in the start-up OBs and in cycle OB1.
If CP5431 is used as master, it must be synchronized on start-up. It also requires one cyclical trigger
point for input and one for output in order to exchange data. The data handling blocks are responsible
for these tasks and have been integrated in CP3WN6ST.S5D in exemplary fashion. Please ensure that
the correct data handling blocks are used for the implemented CPU. Trigger point FBs FB50 and FB51,
the FBs for start-up synchronization (FB52), and FB 53 for diagnostics must also be supplied with the
correct call parameter in the example program, i.e. S5 = 115 (for S5 115) or 135 (for S5 135/155). This
makes it possible for a single example program to run on all S5 CPUs. The slaves must be defined as
cycle-synchronous in COM5431 for the DP update, in order to ensure data integrity.
With IM308C as master, only the CPU-specific FB192 needs to be loaded.
The following data handling blocks are required for the example program with the CP as master:
115: FB244, FB245, FB247, FB249 all CPU-dependent
135/155: FB120, FB121, FB123, FB125 all CPU-dependent
Note: If CP5431 is used as DP master, access to the I/O modules is only possible after a
hardware reset (voltage OFF). Otherwise a time-out/no acknowledgement signal is output.
3.5.3.3.2 Other adaptations
The printed program listing is an example in which the settings can be adapted to suit individual
requirements. Please read Description of examples for further information.
Please note that only one send or receive request can ever be initiated at any one time for the same
3WN6 circuit-breaker.
If several circuit-breakers are in use, FB10 must be called once for each circuit-breaker and supplied
with the correct call parameters. The I/O addresses, DBs and timers must only ever be used once. The
following address space is available for I/O addresses:
IM308C: I/O 128 to 255
CP5431: I/O 0 to 255
in the I/O area with linear addressing in each case. It is necessary to keep within this area in order to
ensure data integrity.
3.5.3.3.3 Diagnostics
If diagnostics are required (e.g. for Win3WN6), an insertion must be made in the DBAT relative to the
DP master as of DW200. In the case of IM308C, this is achieved by means of an FB192 call addressed
to the slave. Both the DP address of the slave and the DBAT no. in which the diagnostic data are to be
stored must be specified (see example IM308CST.S5D).
The diagnostics for CP5431 vary depending on the CP. The CP is first scanned to check for the
presence of diagnostic data (can be seen from FB53 in example CP3WN6ST.S5D). If such data are
present, slave diagnostics are requested by means of a SEND request. The PROFIBUS slave address
must be known, however. This must be entered in DR198 of DBAT. The diagnostic message can then
be read out of the returned data in DW203 of DBAT. It is also possible to detect from DW200 whether
the PROFIBUS connection to the interface module of the circuit-breaker is in order. A definitive
statement can be made regarding the correct connection to 3WN6 based on an OR operation on the
channel-specific diagnostics (DW203) and the "Station_Not_Existent" bit (PROFIBUS standard in
station status 1 in DW200). If diagnostic messages are to be fetched from several 3WN6s, the S5 with
CP5431 as master must ensure that only one diagnostic message is ever sent to a slave at a time.
Diagnostic messages for another 3WN6 can only be requested when the diagnostic response has been
received from the previous circuit-breaker. This can be achieved by means of a counting distributor, for
example.

3.5.3.4 Data blocks (DBs)
The send and/or receive data block and a message header data block must be configured by the user
unless the DBs supplied with the example are to be used. The maximum used length of such a data
block is 261 bytes, i.e. the data block must be configured up to and including data word 255. The length
is not checked.
The block-type structure is as follows (see also Program listing):
Data word 0: Symbol for value to be processed acc. to profile (parameter identifier) - T-Nr. 0
Data word 1: Symbol as sub-item for value to be processed (parameter subindex) - T-Nr. 0
Data word 2: Symbol for value to be processed acc. to profile (parameter identifier) - T-Nr. 1
Data word 3: Symbol as sub-item for value to be processed (parameter subindex) - T-Nr. 1
Data word 4: Symbol for value to be processed acc. to profile (parameter identifier) - T-Nr. 2
Data word 5: Symbol as sub-item for value to be processed (parameter subindex) - T-Nr. 2
etc.
The user himself is responsible for entering the correct values in the data block, as well as for creating
a data block of the correct length. The user must configure the DB up to at least data word 2x+1 (where
x = maximum occurring T-Nr.).

Because applications such as WinCC can only access SIMATIC S5 data blocks via FDL link, for
example, the cyclic part of the message must be inserted in the DB. The cyclic input bytes are stored in
DW96 and 97 of DBAT and the output bytes in DW98 and 99. These can be used to poll the cyclic
messages and to switch the circuit-breaker on and off. The program resets the bits for switching on/off
after 250 ms.

The lines are an extract from DB240 (DBAT, data block for request processing) designed to explain the
enabling and priority assignment of read requests which are to be processed "cyclically". Messages are
enabled from DW100 to DW107 by setting a "1". In the example given here, messages 11, 12, 13 and
14 are enabled in DW 100. The messages are classified according to priority in DW 108 to DW 131.
Priorities have already been assigned but can be changed according to requirements. The message
numbers increase from left to right within the DB, in the same way as for the enable. Priority
assignment entails sending requests with a higher priority more frequently than messages with a lower
priority. The enable and one priority assignment must be allocated in order to generate a valid
message. In the example provided, this means that only requests 11 - 14 are enabled and these are
assigned to priority 1 by default.
This type of enabling permits the program to be adapted to a wide range of conditions, e.g.
visualization with several windows which only ever display a small number of values. Only the required
values need to be updated here, thus allowing for a considerable increase in performance.
3.5.3.4.3 Circuit-breaker parameterization (writing parameters)
The data which the circuit-breaker is currently using as parameters are stored in DB240. The data to be
transferred to the 3WN6 are stored in DB230. FB10 now checks on every call whether the data in
DB230 and DB240 are consistent. If a discrepancy is detected, a bit for writing requests is set. The new
values in DB230 are then transferred to 3WN6 and stored as old values in DB240. The request bit is
reset. If a new value is to be parameterized, it must therefore be entered at the correct position in
DB230. The position is calculated in the same way as for DB80 and DB81:
DW no. = 2 x T-Nr.+1
Example: "z" release setting current, T-Nr. 65, tripping value 20 kA
Enter 20000 in DW65*2+1 = DW131 of DB230
Special cases: The parameters for additional functions 111/112 must be entered as follows:
111: in DL222 of DBSZ
112: in DR225 of DBSZ
The differences occur as these are the only parameterization messages to parameterize two words. All
others parameterize only the second word.
Attention: Because parameter Ir can be assigned using either the cyclic or the acyclic part of the
message, only one of these options is supported in order to avoid parameter inconsistencies. The
parameter for Ir can therefore only be transferred using the acyclic message and an entry in DW99 of
DBAT (which would trigger cyclical parameterization) does not change the parameter in the circuit-
breaker.

3.5.3.4.4 Reading circuit-breaker data
Circuit-breaker key data are read by setting the relevant bits in DW0 and DW1 of DBAT (DB240 in this
example). The data which are read out are stored in DB80. As the circuit-breaker data do not change
during operation, a single call of the messages is sufficient, e.g. by setting the bits in the relevant OBs
on start-up/restart.
Example: Read all circuit-breaker data.
ADB 240
LKM 01111100 00011111
TDW 0
LKM 10000100 00000000
TDW 1
All the bits in DW0 and DW1 can also be set. If a request does not exist, it is canceled after a watchdog
time of 1 s.
3.5.3.5 Description of examples
FB REC is called and parameters are passed to it in order to read 3WN6 data. FB SEND is used to
write data to the 3WN6 interface module. Both blocks have a similar list of designators:
T-DB An input word (MW206 in the example) containing the number of the data block in which
the message headers are stored.
Q-DB/Z-DB An input word (MW208 in the example) containing the number of the data block in which
the parameter values are stored/are to be stored.
Q-DW/Z-DW An input word (DW254 in the example) which can be used to specify an offset for the
basic data word in the data block for parameters.
STAT An input word for an auxiliary storage location which is needed in blocks FB SEND and
FB REC. This auxiliary storage location contains the value 0 when the request has been
processed, the value 2 during processing and any other value - the value 1 in the
example - in order to indicate a new request.
T-NR An input byte to specify a message number to be processed (reference to data word to
be processed in T-DB and Q-DB/Z-DB - DW in T-DB = 2 x T-NR and following DW; DW
in Q-DB/Z-DB = 2 x T-NR + value in Q-DW/Z-DW and following DW) (DL251 in the
example).
EW0 Input word (MW220 in the example) in which the first two byes of the response from
3WN6 are stored (parameter identifier).
EW1 Input word (MW222 in the example) in which bytes three and four of the response from
3WN6 are stored (parameter subindex).
EW2 Input word (MW224 in the example) in which bytes five and six of the response from
3WN6 are stored (size and conversion index for requested value).
EW3 Input word (MW226 in the example) in which bytes seven and eight of the response from
3WN6 are stored (requested value).
AW0 Output word (MW230 in the example) in which the first two byes to be sent to 3WN6 are
stored (parameter identifier).
AW1 Output word (MW232 in the example) in which bytes three and four to be sent to 3WN6
are stored (parameter subindex).
AW2 Output word (MW234 in the example) in which bytes five and six to be sent to 3WN6 are
stored (size and conversion index for value to be transferred).
AW3 Output word (MW236 in the example) in which bytes seven and eight to be sent to
3WN6 are stored (value to be transferred).

FB SEND does not contains the designators EW2 and EW3.
Four data blocks are supplied with the example. Blocks DB80 and DB81 contain message headers
sorted according to message groups 0 and 1 and listed in the order of the message numbers. Message
headers contain the parameter identifier and the parameter subindex. Data blocks DBG1 (DB220) and
DBSZ (DB230) are used as data storage locations for the read and write requests to the circuit-breaker
in the example.
The size and conversion index are stored here, as is the value for a message number. The offset is set
to 0. The data read from 3WN6 are stored in DB220 and the write data are stored in DB230.
The slave data for this example are selected as follows:
Slave address 8
Inputs in S5 at addresses P144 to P155
Outputs in S5 at addresses P156 to P167

This is the call based on the parameters from the example.
The meanings of the individual parameters are as follows:
BASE Base address of inputs which has been parameterized in COM-PROFIBUS, for example.
The following 12 bytes are then used by this interface module.
BASA Base address of outputs which has been parameterized in COM-PROFIBUS, for example.
The following 12 bytes are then used by this interface module.

DBSZ Free data block number, DB230 in the example
DBAT Free data block number, DB240 in the example
TIM0 Two timers are used in the program.
TIM1 The timers can be specified externally so that the block can be used universally.
TIM2 See above
3.5.3.7 Procedure for creating your own project
1. The data blocks must contain exactly the same structure and contents as in the example provided.
We therefore recommend that you copy them out of this project. Otherwise problems may occur.
2. The following blocks must be copied into the project:
FB10, FB81, FB82, FB100, FB101, FB102
3. FB10 and its parameters must be called from the cyclic program (e.g. OB1).
4. An FB10 call must be assigned to each circuit-breaker. The parameters (DBs, timer, I/O area) must
not overlap.
5. Adaptations to the DP master may be necessary, e.g. CP5431 and diagnostics.
Note: Only flags over the 200 area (scratch flag area) are used in software block FB10. These are
reinitialized on every call and can therefore also be used throughout the entire program provided they
are always reinitialized. This means that the entire flag area can also be used by the user program.

3.5.3.8 Description of visualization with software block
We shall demonstrate the use of the software block with reference to an example. Actual phase
currents L1, L2 and L3 are to be displayed in a visualization window (e.g. WinCC). The actual state of
the circuit-breaker should also be displayed. It should also be possible to display and set new
parameters for the "a" release in this window (T-Nr. 61).
These 3 requests must be entered in the list of cyclic messages for the actual phase current to be
displayed in the boxes. This is achieved by setting the bits in DW100 of DBAT (only enable messages
11 - 13), see 3.5.3.4.2. The actual currents can then be copied into the window from data words DW23,
25 and 27 of DBG1. The circuit-breaker states are transferred with every message in the cyclic part and
can be obtained from data words DW96 and 97 of DBAT (DW96 corresponds to octets 9 and 10, DW97
to octets 11 and 12).
The ON and OFF buttons can be used to set 3WN6 to the required state. Bit 1 (for OFF) or bit 0 (for
ON) of octet 10 must be set for this purpose. The bit is automatically reset. If octet 10 cannot be
reached directly for visualization, these bits can also be set in DW98 of DBAT. They are written out at
the end of the cycle.
A value is to be parameterized in accordance with message 1:61. If the actual parameterized value is
to appear in the box, the corresponding bit must be set in DW103 of DBAT (as was the case with the
current values). This value is then updated cyclically. The value in the box must be copied from
DW123 of DBG1. To parameterize a new value, enter the value in the box and press the SET button.
The visualization software then copies this value to the correct location of DBSZ, i.e. to DW123 (= T-
Nr. *2 +1). The block then detects this new value and parameterizes it in the circuit-breaker. When the
procedure is complete, the actual parameterized value is again displayed in the box until such time as
3WN6 has verified and returned the new value.
Note: Win3WN6 and SICAM LCC are available (see page 35) for standard visualization of 3WN6
circuit-breaker information.

There is also another way of changing parameters in the 3WN6 circuit-breaker, i.e. by connecting
suitable devices to the serial interface at the front of the display unit. It is important that the bits for
cyclic reading of the displayed values are set in order that the S5 software and the visualization can
detect these changes (already configured in this example). This guarantees data consistency between
the circuit-breaker and the S5 data management. Changes should only be made via the serial interface
when the corresponding read request bit (as of DW100 in DBAT) is set.
If several windows are used for displaying the circuit-breaker, only the actually displayed values need
to be updated cyclically. Otherwise the performance is compromised.
3.5.4 STEP 7 program
The kernel of the software block is the same as for S5. However, some changes are required for S7
due to the conversion.
1. The data words in the data blocks of S5 must be multiplied by 2 for S7.
2. The initial I/O addresses do not need to be supplied for the FC10 call.
It is necessary to differentiate between the CPU and the CP as DP master, in order to guarantee data
integrity in S7.
In the case of a CPU as master, CALL SFC14 must be performed prior to CALL FC 10. This copies the
valid input data to the flag area (12 bytes). This must be followed by CALL SFC15, which copies the
flag data (12 bytes) to the output area (see S7 example).
In the case of a CP as master, both calls are replaced by CALL "SEND" and CALL "RECEIVE", which
have the same effect.

4 3WN1 and 3WS1 circuit-breakers
4.1 Mode of operation and design
4.1.1 General mode of operation
Fitting circuit-breakers 3WN1 and 3WS1 with a communication-capable overcurrent release version AZN
(type 5) or AZNG (type 8) makes them capable of communicating on PROFIBUS-DP.
The connection of the 3WN1 and 3WS1 circuit-breakers to PROFIBUS-DP is implemented by means of the
DP/3WN1, 3WS1 interface in conjunction with a digital I/O module (e.g. ET 200) which has been
customized to suit the application.
The information available on the overcurrent release is transferred to the bus via the interface module and
the circuit-breaker information via the I/O module. The I/O module can also be used to control the circuit-
breaker.
4.1.2 Design of the communication-capable 3WN1/3WS1 PROFIBUS system
Fig. 12, page 80 illustrates a general system design in which 3WN1/3WS1 circuit-breakers are connected to
PROFIBUS-DP:

Note
!It is also possible to connect the circuit-breaker to the communication
system using only the DP/3WN1, 3WS1 interface module. The following
information can be transferred from the circuit-breaker in this case:
- Highest loaded phase
- All three phase currents
- Rated circuit-breaker current
- Phase imbalance
- Processor fault
- Overload signal
- Temperature alarm
The following additional information can be transferred to and from the
circuit-breaker with the help of ET 200:
- Circuit-breaker state
- ON/OFF commands
- Ready to close

Communication System Manual 3WN1, 3WS1 Circuit-Breakers
Version 1.0 (02/98) Copyright Siemens AG 1998. All rights reserved. 83
Step 2: Check the system requirements
The second step involves checking the following three requirements for connecting 3WN1/3WS1 to
PROFIBUS-DP:
The communication-capable 3WN1/3WS1 circuit-breaker must be installed and wired in
accordance with the user guide (included in scope of supply of circuit-breaker).
Note Circuit-breaker position
!A draw-out circuit-breaker must be in the test position for testing and in the
connected position for normal operation.
When wiring, please ensure that the jumper arrangements on the auxiliary connectors are correct
(cf. Fig. 15, page 91 and Fig. 15, page 92 in the 3WN1/3WS1 user guide)
The PROFIBUS-DP master must be present and operational.
The 3RK1002 interface module must be correctly installed and connected (section 4.5.2, page
90).
The compact housing of the 3RK1002 interface module is 70 mm wide and can simply be
snapped onto a 35 mm DIN rail. The devices can be mounted side by side.
Note Installation procedure
!The interface module must not be mounted directly above the arcing
space of the circuit-breaker, unless suitable covers have been fitted.
The earth connection of the interface module (shield signal for electronic circuit) is made using a
flexible earth wire (1.5 mm2) and an earth terminal (order no. 8WA1001-1PF00, for example)
which is mounted on the DIN rail immediately next to the interface module.
The 9-pin SUB-D socket on the 3WN1/3WS1 circuit-breaker which is used for the connecting
cable between the circuit-breaker and the interface module must be earthed using a flexible
earth wire (2.5 mm2).
-The standard length of connecting cable 3WN1/3WS1-3RK1002 between the 3WN1/3WS1 circuit-
breaker and the 3RK1002 interface module is 3 m.

Step 4: Connect 3RK1002 interface module to PROFIBUS-DP 58
Now you can wire the appropriate 6ES7... connector (up to 12 Mbaud) to the PROFIBUS-DP cable
based on the baud rate required on the bus59 (cf. connector user guide). Then plug the wired connector
into the "PROFIBUS-DP" socket on the interface module.
(--> see also section 4.5.2.2.3, page 93)
Step 5: Connect 3RK1002 interface module to 3WN1/3WS1 circuit-
breaker
Connection of 3WN1/3WS1 <--> 3RK1002 connecting cable:
ðThis cable is supplied with the interface and is plugged into the 3WN1, 3WS1/3RK1002 adapter
(9-pin SUB-D socket), which is fitted on the circuit-breaker at the factory, and into the "3WN1, 3WS1"
(9-pin SUB-D) socket on the front of the interface module.
Note Installation procedure
!All communication-capable circuit-breakers (fixed-mounted) and all
communication-capable guide frames (for draw-out circuit-breakers) are
fitted with a "3WN1, 3WS1/3RK1002" adapter at the factory.
This 3WN1, 3WS1 adapter can also be ordered as a spare part using the
following order numbers:
Adapter "3WN1/3WS1/3RK1002" (0.4 m) for 3WN1/3WS1 fixed-mounted
circuit-breakers, comprising one SUB-D socket and free cable ends, and

(--> see also section 4.5.2.2.2, page 92)
Step 6: Connect 3RK1002 interface module to voltage supply
Connect the 24 V DC voltage supply (DIN 19240) to the interface module:
ð The interface module is fitted with a 4-pole screw terminal to facilitate the through connection of the
24 V supply.
(--> see also section 4.5.2.2.4, page 94)
58)This assumes that conventional copper conductors are used for PROFIBUS-DP. If fiber optic conductors
are used, converters from fiber optic to copper conductors must be fitted.
59)The maximum possible baud rate corresponds to the maximum baud rate of the slowest field device.

Step 7: Bus configuration
If SIMATIC S5 is the bus master, the bus can be configured quickly and easily using either a PC or a
SIMATIC programming device (PG) in conjunction with the COM ET 200 or COM-PROFIBUS programs60.
In the case of other bus masters, the appropriate devices and/or supplier-specific tools must be used.
The object of bus configuration is to define the 3WN1/3WS1 device data, the 3WN1/3WS1 bus address and
the 3WN1/3WS1 data area (I/O area) in the bus master. The 3WN1/3WS1 device data can be read into the
master in the form of type or GSD files.

Step 8: Set bus address on 3RK1002 interface module
The bus address defined for 3WN in Step 7 can be set on the front panel of the 3RK1002 interface module
by means of 2 rotary switches (range 00 - 99). (--> section 4.5.3.1.1, page 101)
ð The rotary switch on the left (x10) sets the tens and the rotary switch on the right (x1) sets the units for
the address.
ð The baud rate cannot be set on the interface. It is automatically adjusted in line with the baud rate of the
bus master (e.g. SIMATIC S5).61
High-performance software is available for the visualization and evaluation of the data transferred from
3VF (see page 35 for description):
"SICAM LCC" for the visualization of complete systems implementing circuit-breakers 3VF, 3WN6, 3WN1,
3WS1, and a SIMOCODE-DP motor protection and control device. 62
An additional software block is required for 3WN1/WS1 visualization using SICAM LCC and SIMATIC. It
makes the data on PROFIBUS available to the PC via an FDL link.
Once you have completed Step 8, the 3WN1/3WS1 circuit-breaker is connected to the PROFIBUS-DP
communication system. No further steps are required.
61 The maximum possible baud rate corresponds to the maximum baud rate of the slowest field device.
62 Shipping of SICAM LCC starts in 10/98.

4.4 Special cases
The current values transferred by the circuit-breaker which are below the activation limit are
generated in the transformer electronics and must not be evaluated.
The trip reasons are stored in the communication processor and are transferred at regular
intervals after a trip. They are not deleted until the circuit-breaker is switched on again.
The trip reasons are displayed on the release within a period of 20 ms.
The release updates the current values of the transferred phases every 50 ms.
4.5 DP/3WN1, 3WS1 and DP/3WN6 interface modules
This section contains a description, installation guidelines, operating instructions and
technical data for the interface modules DP/3WN1, 3WS1 (for 3WN1 or 3WS1 circuit-
breakers) and DP/3WN6 (for 3WN6 circuit-breakers). Only the DP/3WN1 interface
modules is illustrated however. All the information also applies to the DP/3WN6
interface module with the exception of the device names and the order numbers.
(Note: the "PROFIBUS-DP" and "3WN6" connectors on the DP/3WN6 interface module
are swapped on products shipped before July 1998, i.e. the PROFIBUS interface is
below and the 3WN6 interface is on top. We shall make special reference to any other
differences.)

4.5.2 Installation guidelines
4.5.2.1 Installing the interface module
The interface module is designed for installation in a switchgear cubicle (IP20) and can therefore only be
mounted on a standard DIN rail (deep rail in acc. with EN50022)
Installation
Lower the module onto the DIN rail from above.
Then swivel it downwards until the slide mechanism on the module snaps onto the rail.
You may install other modules on the rail to the left and right of the interface module.
Clearance of at least 5 cm must be provided above and below the module to allow for heat dissipation.
Connect the standard DIN rail to the equipotential bonding strip of the switchgear cubicle. The
connecting wire must have a cross-section of at least 10 mm2.
Install an earth terminal immediately next to the interface module so that the flexible wire (1.5 mm2)
used for screen bonding can be as short as possible.
Deinstallation
First disconnect the power supply and signal cables.
Then use a screwdriver to press the slide mechanism on the module downwards.
Now swivel the module off the DIN rail.

The standard DIN rail can also be installed in the vertical position, in which case the interface
module must be rotated by 90° for installation. The heat dissipation by convection is not as
effective in this case, so the maximum permissible temperature is restricted to a max. of 40°C.

4.5.2.2.4 Power supply
The device is connected to the 24 V DC power supply by means of a 4-pole plug-type screw
terminal. The 24 V DC voltage of the power supply unit may fluctuate between 20.4 V and 28.8 V as
specified in DIN 19240. The 4-pole plug-type screw terminal makes a through connection of the
24 V supply to another device possible. Please note, however, that the supply voltage is looped
through the device, i.e. the supply voltage to the other device is also interrupted when the screw
terminal is disconnected.
Connect the supply voltage to the designated 4-pole plug-type screw terminal on the front panel
of the device.
Fig. 18: Power supply terminal
4.5.2.2.5 Screen bonding
The interface module is fitted with two contact points for screen bonding. These are two electrically
isolated screens in the device which must be connected to the equipotential bonding strip outside
the module. This precaution ensures a greater immunity to interference as the "cable screen
current", which can be anything up to a few amperes due to differences of potential of two slaves, is
not discharged via the device.
The first screen bonding point (= screen for internal filter connections) is located on the base of the
interface module and is automatically connected when the module is mounted on the DIN rail.
Note High levels of stress
! If the device is subject to high levels of mechanical or chemical stress, we
recommend that a tinned DIN rail be used in order to ensure a good contact to the
screen bonding.
Order number: 6ES5 710-8MA11 ---> Length of 483 mm for 19" cubicles
6ES5 710-8MA21 ---> Length of 530 mm for 600 mm cubicles
6ES5 710-8MA31 ---> Length of 830 mm for 830 mm cubicles

Fig. 19: Screen contacting on DIN rail
The second screen bonding contact point (= cable screens) is located on the front panel of the module in
the form of a screw terminal. This screw terminal is used to earth the cable screens of the bus cables.
Fit an earth terminal (order no. 8WA1001-1PF00, for example) on the DIN rail immediately next to the
module. The earth terminal automatically makes an electrical connection to the DIN rail.
Connect the screen bonding terminal with the earth terminal using a flexible wire (as short as possible)
with a cross-section of 1.5 mm2.
Connect the DIN rail with the equipotential bonding strip using as low a resistance as possible. Use a
flexible earth wire with a cross-section of at least 10 mm2.

4.5.2.3 Wiring arrangements, screening and measures to counteract
interference voltage
This section describes the wiring arrangements for bus, signal and power supply cables in order to ensure
that your system is installed in compliance with EMC guidelines.
Communication System Manual 3WN1, 3WS1 Circuit-Breakers
Version 1.0 (02/98) Copyright Siemens AG 1998. All rights reserved. 97
4.5.2.3.1 General information on wiring arrangements
a) In cubicles and not in cubicles
It is useful to classify cables into the following cable groups and to install these groups separately in order to
comply with EMC guidelines.
ð Group A: Screened bus and data cables (e.g. for PROFIBUS-DP, 3WN1, printers etc.)
Screened analog cables
Unscreened cables for DC voltages 60 V
Unscreened cables for AC voltages 25 V
Coaxial monitor cables
ð Group B: Unscreened cables for DC voltages 60 V and 400 V
Unscreened cables for AC voltages 24 V and 400 V
ð Group C: Unscreened cables for DC voltages > 400 V
ð Group D: SINEC H1 (Ethernet) cables
You can use the table below to look up the conditions required for installing cables based on different group
combinations.
Table 13: Cable installation regulations for combinations of cable groups
Group A Group B Group C Group D
Group A ƒ
Group B ƒ
Group C ƒ ƒ
Group D
Cables can be installed in the same bundles or cable ducts.
Cables must be installed in separate bundles or cable ducts (no minimum clearance).
ƒCables in cubicles must be installed in separate bundles or cable ducts. Cables not in cubicles but inside buildings must be installed in
separate cable raceways with a minimum clearance of 10 cm.
Cables must be installed in separate bundles or cable ducts with a minimum clearance of 50 cm.
b) Outdoors
Install cables which are not inside buildings on metal cable trays if possible. Make an electrical connection
between the joints of the cable trays and earth the cable trays.
Observe the usual lightning protection and earthing measures when installing cables outside buildings.
General guidelines:
Lightning protection:
ðIf cables and wires required for the interface are to be installed outside buildings,
measures must be implemented for internal and external lightning protection.
ðInstall cables outside buildings in either
- metal conduits earthed at both ends or
- concrete cable ducts with continuous reinforcement.
ðProtect the signal cables from overvoltage by means of
- varistors or
- surge arresters filled with inert gases.
ðInstall these protective elements at the point where the cable enters the building.
Equipotential bonding:
ðEnsure that there is sufficient equipotential bonding for the connected devices.

4.5.2.3.2 Equipotential bonding
Differences of potential can occur between separate system sections in the case of
PLCs and I/O modules connected via non-isolated links or
Cable screens contacted at both ends and earthed on different plant sections.
Differences of potential can occur due to different power supply inputs, for example. These
differences must be reduced by means of equipotential bonding conductors, in order to ensure the
continuing operation of all the electronic components in the system.
Please note the following items with regard to equipotential bonding:
The lower the impedance of the equipotential bonding conductor, the more effective the
equipotential bonding.
If screened signal cables which are connected to the protective earth conductor at both ends
are to be installed between the affected system sections, the impedance of the additionally
installed equipotential bonding conductor must not be greater than 10 % of the screen
impedance.
The cross-section of the equipotential bonding conductor must be large enough for the
maximum compensating current. The following cross-sections have proved useful in practice:
- 16 mm2 Cu for equipotential bonding conductors up to 200 m in length
- 25 mm2 Cu for equipotential bonding conductors over 200 m in length
Use equipotential bonding conductors made of copper or galvanized steel. Make a large-area
connection between them and the protective earth conductor and protect the equipotential
bonding conductors from corrosion.
The equipotential bonding conductor should be installed such that the areas enclosed between
the equipotential bonding conductor and the signal cables are as small as possible.
4.5.2.3.3 Cable screening
Screening is a measure designed to reduce magnetic, electrical or electromagnetic interference fields.
Interference currents on cable screens are discharged to earth via the conducting screen bus which is
connected to the housing. A low-impedance connection to the protective earth conductor is especially
important to ensure that these interference currents do not themselves become a source of interference.
Only use cables with a braided screen if possible. The coverage density should be more than 80 %. Avoid
cables with foil screens as the foil can very easily be damaged by tension and compression loads when
fixing, the result being a reduction in the effectiveness of the screen.
You should generally always connect cable screens at both ends. Only then is it possible to achieve good
interference suppression in the higher frequency range.
The screen should only be connected at one end in exceptional cases. This only attenuates lower
frequencies, however. A single-ended screen connection can be an advantage in cases where
it is not possible to install an equipotential bonding conductor.
analog signals (a number of mV or mA) are transmitted.
foil screens (static screens) are used.
Always use metal or metal-plated connectors in the case of serial link data cables. Fix the screen of the data
cable to the connector casing. Do not connect the screen to PIN 1 of the connector!
Communication System Manual 3WN1, 3WS1 Circuit-Breakers
Version 1.0 (02/98) Copyright Siemens AG 1998. All rights reserved. 99
Note Differences of potential
! If there are differences of potential between the earthing points, compensating
current can flow across the screen connected at both ends. Install an additional
equipotential bonding conductor in this case.
Please note the following items with regard to the screen:
Use metal cable clamps for fixing the braided screens. There must be a good, large-area
contact between the clamps and the screen.
Connect the screen to a screen bus immediately after the cable enters the cubicle. Run the
screen through as far as the module but do not connect it again!
Fig. 21: Possible cable screen connections
Screened data cables and unscreened power supply cables (< 60 V DC) are run through to the
interface module and connected. All the cable screens must be earthed at both ends in order to
comply with EMC limits.
The PROFIBUS-DP cable screen must be connected to the equipotential bonding strip as it
enters the switchgear cubicle.
The supplied screened 3WN1 connecting cable must be earthed on the shield terminal of
the interface module using a flexible wire (as short as possible) with a cross-section of
1.5 mm2.
The other end of the screen on the 3WN1 connecting cable must be earthed on the SUB-D
connector of the circuit-breaker using a flexible wire (as short as possible) with a cross-
section 2.5 mm2.

4.5.3 Operation
When you have installed and wired the interface module in accordance with the installation guidelines, you
still have to set the PROFIBUS address before start-up. It is not necessary to set the baud rate as the
interface module automatically synchronizes with the baud rate of the master in the range 9.6 Kbit/s to
12 Mbit/s.
You can check that the interface modules is working properly by checking the display elements on start-up.
4.5.3.1 Operating elements

4.5.5 Connecting cables between interface modules and 3WN1/3WS1
The pin assignments of the TTY interface on the 3WN1/3WS1 circuit-breakers have been designed such
that a 9-pole 1:1 connecting cable can be used.
The 3WN1/3WS1 circuit-breakers use the TTY interface in only one direction, i.e. the circuit-breakers can
only transmit, not receive.

4.5.6 Displaying data in PROFIBUS-DP
Any standard PROFIBUS-DP master can exchange data with the interface module. Even very "simple"
master interfaces can be used thanks to the data structure.
Standard PROFIBUS-DP masters and slaves transmit and process four different types of message:
Parameterization message
Configuration message
Diagnostic message
Data message
The general mode of operation of the communication link is described in the following:
After the master has determined which slaves are present on the bus, it sends first a
parameterization message and then a configuration message to each slave. After the slave
(interface module) has received the parameterization and configuration messages, master and
slave can start the data exchange cycle (= normal operating state).
If diagnostic data or faults occur in the DP slave (interface module), e.g. "3WN1/3WS1
communication interface not clear", the slave (interface module) transmits a high-priority message
instead of a low-priority message. The master recognizes this and requests the diagnostic data
from the slave for the purposes of a more detailed analysis.
Note Type or GSD files
!All the data (see Parameterization, Configuration) required by the interface
module for normal operation are available in the form of a type or GSD file,
which you will find on the supplied diskette.
ðð No further data need to be entered by the user.
The following section describes the four message types in detail.
4.5.6.1 Parameterization
The master identifies itself to the slave by means of the parameterization message and defines the mode in
which the slave (interface module) is to operate.
The following parameterization options are available as standard:
Slave operation with/without watchdog (response monitoring). This is necessary for safety reasons as it
makes it possible to detect whether a master is still active.
Definition of TSDR (the minimum delay time which must elapse before a slave can respond)
Operation of slave in Freeze/Sync mode (e.g. for actuators, counters)
Enabling/disabling of DP slave for other masters.
Issuing of a group assignment for "global control" messages. Each bit signifies a group.
Master address for unique identification
User-specific parameters (e.g. response to CLEAR master status)
Communication System Manual 3WN1, 3WS1 Circuit-Breakers
108 Copyright Siemens AG 1998. All rights reserved. Version 1.0 (08/98)
The parameterization message from the master to the interface module is structured as
follows:

000000 Time base for watchdog = 10 ms WD_Base
000001 Time base for watchdog = 1 ms
* The time base for the watchdog time is specified as 10 ms in octets 2 and 3. Nothing lower than the digit "2" should ever
be entered in one octet and nothing lower than the digit "1" in the other, in order to ensure that the watchdog time does not
elapse too quickly. A time base of 1 ms is specified in the user parameters of some ASICs due to the 12 Mbaud technology.
** 11 Tbits minimum are specified as standard. This value must be less than the maximum TSDR.
*** The structure of the parameterization message is partly specified as is the case with ASICs LSPM2/SPM2. The SPC3
evaluates the first 7 (without user_prm_data) or the first 8 (with user_prm_data) data bytes. The first seven bytes are defined in
accordance with the standard. The eighth byte is used for SPC3-specific properties and the other bytes are available for the
application.
Response from slave
The slave responds to a parameterization message with "E5H" (short acknowledge). The slave does not
report parameterization errors until later when it receives a diagnostic request from the master.
Communication System Manual 3WN1, 3WS1 Circuit-Breakers
Version 1.0 (02/98) Copyright Siemens AG 1998. All rights reserved. 109
4.5.6.2 Configuration
When parameterization is complete, the master sends a configuration message to the slave. The
configuration message causes the slave to check the transmitted configuration with reference to the stored
configuration.
You can describe up to 16 bytes or words in one octet of the data unit (DU). You can group inputs and
outputs with the same format in one octet. Otherwise you must use a separate octet for each individual
byte/word.
The configuration message from the master to the interface module is structured as
follows:

Note Class 2 master
!If the actual configuration is not known to the class 2 master, it can first read the slave
configuration using "Get_Cfg" and then send it to the slave to be checked. This service
program is especially useful for modular systems.
Response from slave
The slave responds to a configuration message with "E5H" (short acknowledge). If the slave detects
discrepancies as compared with the entries in the GSD file, it report the configuration errors later when it
receives a diagnostic request from the master. It is not ready for user data traffic in this case.
4.5.6.3 Diagnostics
Diagnostic data are high-priority data. The DP/3WN1, 3WS1 interface module generates external
diagnostics if the connection to the external device (3WN1/3WS1 circuit-breaker) is faulted.
The diagnostic information of a DP slave includes standard diagnostic information (6 bytes) and possibly
user-specific diagnostic information.

has not been set, i.e. if no external diagnostics are active.
Note: Octet 8 is different in interfaces DP/3WN6 and DP/3WN1, 3WS1. See page 60 for details.
4.6 Displaying the data in the 3WN1/3WS1 circuit-breaker
After the interface module has been parameterized and configured by the master, the two stations can start
the data exchange cycle (= normal operating state).
If diagnostic data or faults occur in the interface module, the master is informed about the presence of this
signal by means of a high-priority data message.

5.2 Glossary
-3RK1 interface module The 3RK1 interface module translates the PROFIBUS-DP data format
to the circuit-breaker data format and vice-versa. There are two
3RK1 interface modules: 3RK1000 (also known as DP/3WN6)
for 3WN6 circuit-breakers and 3RK1002 (also known as
DP/3WN1, 3WS1) for 3WN1 and 3WS1 circuit-breakers.
-AS-i: Actuator-Sensor-interface. The AS-i is a supplier-independent
networking system for simple, usually binary, actuators and sensors.
It is possible to connect this interface to all the standard automation
systems in the SIMATIC family using various master modules. For
further information, please refer to Catalog ST PI 96: "PROFIBUS &
AS-Interface - Fieldbus Components" (order no. E86060-K4660-
A101-A1)
-Baud: Unit of measurement for transmission rate. A rate of 1 baud means
that 1 bit ("0" or "1") is transferred per second.
-Bus configuration: Definition of 3WN6 device-specific data, the bus address of 3WN6
and the 3WN6 data area (I/O area) in the bus master
-DP: Decentralized Peripherals.
-DP/3WN6: Name of the interface which translates the 3WN6 data profile to the
PROFIBUS-DP profile and vice versa. The DP/3WN6 interface was
previously also known as the "DP/RS485" or "kNS/DP“ interface.
-Gateway: A gateway is used to translate data formats of one system (e.g.
PROFIBUS protocol) to data formats of another system (e.g. 3WN6
data profile) The term "interface" or "interface module" is used in this
documentation instead of the term "gateway".
-GSD: Device data file
-I/O area: This refers to the storage area of the bus master (e.g. SIMATIC S5
PLC) which is reserved for communication between the circuit-
breaker and the bus master when the 3WN6 circuit-breaker is
connected to PROFIBUS-DP. The size of the memory area reserved
for 3WN6 is 12 bytes (octets).
-Octet: The term "octet" is a synonym of the term "byte" and stands for 8
binary data units (bits).
-PLC: Programmable Logic Controller
-PROFIBUS node: A field device which is connected to PROFIBUS
-Reaction time: The total time required for the processing and execution of a
command from the bus master. Please refer to Appendix A.5 for the
3WN6 reaction times on the bus.
