Wiring

Tip: Using the potential jumpers

Use the potential jumpers supplied with the front connector if you want to distribute the
24 V DC supply voltage to a neighboring module. This helps you to avoid having to terminate
two wires to one terminal.
Proceed as follows:
1. Connect the 24 V DC supply voltage to terminals 19 and 20.
2. Insert the potential jumpers between terminals 19 and 39 (L+) and between terminals 20
and 40 (M).
3. Use the terminals 39 and 40 to loop the potential to the next module.

Figure 3-2 Using the potential jumpers

Note
Ensure that the maximum current load of 8 A per potential jumper is not exceeded.

4.1 Parameters

DQ 16x230VAC/2A ST parameters
When you assign the module parameters in STEP 7, you use various parameters to specify
the module properties. The table below lists the parameters that can be set. The effective
range of the configurable parameters depends on the type of configuration. The following
configurations are possible:
● Central operation with a S7-1500 CPU
● Distributed operation on PROFINET IO in an ET 200MP system
● Distributed operation on PROFIBUS DP in an ET 200MP system
For parameter assignment in the user program, the parameters are transferred to the
module with the WRREC instruction (reconfiguration in RUN) using data records; see section
Parameter assignment and structure of the parameter data records (Page 33).

Value status (Quality Information, QI)

The value status is always activated for the following modules:
● DQ 16x230VAC/2A ST QI
● DQ 16x230VAC/2A ST S QI
● DQ 16x230VAC/2A ST MSO
An additional bit is assigned to each channel for the value status. The bit for the value status
indicates if the output value specified by the user program is actually pending at the module
terminal (0 = value is incorrect).

Address space for configuration as 16-channel DQ 16x230VAC/2A ST QI

The following figure shows the assignment of the address space for the configuration as a
16-channel module with value status. You can freely assign the start address for the module.
The addresses of the channels are derived from the start address.
The letters "a to b" are printed onto the module. "For example, AB a" stands for module start
address output byte a.

Parameters/address space
4.3 Address space

Address space for configuration as 2 x 8-channel DQ 16x230VAC/2A ST S QI

For the configuration as a 2 x 8-channel module, the channels of the module are divided into
two submodules. The submodules can be assigned to different IO controllers when the
module is used in a shared device.
The number of IO controllers depends on the interface module being used. Please observe
the information in the manual for the particular interface module.
Unlike the 1 x 16-channel module configuration, each of the two submodules has a freely
assignable start address. The addresses for the respective value status of a submodule can
also be assigned by the user.

Figure 4-2 Address space for configuration as 2 x 8-channel DQ 16x230VAC/2A ST S QI with value
status

Note
Substitute value behavior in shared device operation with 2 x 8-channel configuration
If the system is in shared device mode and one of the associated IO controllers goes into
STOP or fails due to, for example, a communication failure, all submodules of the output
module follow the configured substitute value behavior (e.g. switch off).
This means that even when only one IO controller fails, the other IO controllers associated
with the shared device no longer control the assigned submodule of the output module.

 Parameters/address space
4.3 Address space

Address space for configuration as 1 x 16-channel DQ 16x230VAC/2A ST MSO

For the configuration as a 1 x 16-channel module (module-internal Shared Output, MSO),
channels 0 to 15 of the module are copied to multiple submodules. Channels 0 to 15 are
then available with identical values in various submodules. These submodules can be
assigned to up to four IO controllers when the module is used in a shared device:
● The IO controller to which submodule 1 is assigned has write access to outputs 0 to 15.
● The IO controllers to which submodule 2, 3, or 4 is assigned have read access to outputs
0 to 15.
The number of IO controllers depends on the interface module being used. Observe the
information in the manual for the particular interface module.

Value status (Quality Information, QI)

The meaning of the value status depends on the submodule on which it occurs.
For the first submodule (=basic submodule), the value status 0 indicates that the value is
incorrect or that the IO controller of the basic submodule is in STOP state.
For the 2nd to 4th submodule (=MSO submodule), the value status 0 indicates that the value
is incorrect or one of the following errors has occurred:
● The basic submodule is not yet configured (not ready).
● The connection between the IO controller and the basic submodule has been interrupted.
● The IO controller of the basic submodule is in STOP or POWER OFF state.

● Missing supply voltage L+
● Parameter assignment error

5.3 Diagnostics alarms

Diagnostics alarms
A diagnostics alarm is output for each diagnostics event and the ERROR LED flashes on the
module. The diagnostics alarms can, for example, be read from the diagnostics buffer of the
CPU. You can evaluate the error codes with the user program.
If the module is operated distributed with PROFIBUS DP in an ET 200MP system, you have
the option to read out diagnostics data with the instruction RDREC or RD_REC using data
record 0 and 1. The structure of the data records is available on the Internet in the "Manual
for interface module IM 155-5 DP ST (6ES7155-5BA00-0AB0)".

Parameter data records B
B.1 Parameter assignment and structure of the parameter data records
The data records of the module have an identical structure, regardless of whether you
configure the module with PROFIBUS DP or PROFINET IO.

Dependencies for configuration with GSD file

When a GSD file is used to configure a module, dependencies can arise when "assigning the
parameters".
There are no dependencies for this module. You can assign the individual parameters in any
combination.

Parameter assignment in the user program

You have the option to reconfigure the module in RUN (e.g. the response of selected
channels to the CPU STOP state can be changed in RUN without having an effect on the
other channels).

Changing parameters in RUN

The WRREC instruction is used to transfer the parameters to the module using data records
64 to 79. The parameters set in STEP 7 are not changed in the CPU, which means the
parameters set in STEP 7 are valid again after a restart.
The parameters are only checked for plausibility by the module after the transfer.

STATUS output parameter

The module ignores errors that occurred during the transfer of parameters with the WRREC
instruction and continues operation with the previous parameter assignment. However, a
corresponding error code is written to the STATUS output parameter.
The description of the WRREC instruction and the error codes is available in the STEP 7
online help.

Operation of the module behind a PROFIBUS DP interface module

If the module is operated behind a PROFIBUS DP interface module, the parameter data
records 0 and 1 are not read back. You get the diagnostics data records 0 and 1 for the read
back parameter data records 0 and 1. You can find more information in the Interrupts section
of the PROFIBUS DP interface module device manual on the Internet.

Parameter data records
B.1 Parameter assignment and structure of the parameter data records

Assignment of data record and channel

For the configuration as a 1 x 16-channel module, the parameters are located in data
records 64 to 79 and are assigned as follows:
● Data record 64 for channel 0
● Data record 65 for channel 1
● …
● Data record 78 for channel 14
● Data record 79 for channel 15

For the configuration as a 2 x 8-channel module, the module has 2 submodules with eight
channels each. The parameters for the channels are located in data records 64 to 71 and
are assigned as follows:
● Data records 64 to 71 for channels 0 to 7 (submodule 1)
● Data records 64 to 71 for channels 8 to 15 (submodule 2)
Address the respective submodule for data record transfer.

Data record structure

The example in the figure below shows the structure of data record 64 for channel 0. The
structure of channels 1 to 16 is identical. The values in byte 0 and byte 1 are fixed and may
not be changed.
Enable a parameter by setting the corresponding bit to "1".
