Notes on programming the SIMATIC S7-300
2.1
SIMATIC S7-300 automation system

The SIMATIC S7-300 automation system is a modular microcontroller system for the low and medium
performance range.
A comprehensive range of modules is available to optimally adapt the system to the automation task
The S7 controller consists of a power supply, a CPU, and input and output modules for digital and
analog signals.
If necessary, communication processors and function modules are also used for special tasks such as
stepper motor control.
The programmable logic controller (PLC) uses the S7 program to monitor and control a machine or a
process. The S7 program scans the I/O modules via input addresses (%I) and addresses their output
addresses (%Q).
The system is programmed with the STEP 7 software.
2.2
STEP 7 Professional V11 (TIA Portal V11) programming software

The STEP 7 Professional V11 (TIA Portal V11) software is the programming tool for the following
automation systems:
-
SIMATIC S7-1200
SIMATIC S7-300
SIMATIC S7-400
SIMATIC WinAC
STEP 7 Professional V11 provides the following functions for plant automation:
-
Configuration and parameter assignment of the hardware
Specification of the communication
Programming
Testing, commissioning, and servicing with operational/diagnostic functions

Error organization blocks with SIMATIC S7-300

In the SIMATIC S7-300 CPUs there are error organization block that can be called when an error occurs.
If this block is not available in the CPU, it goes to STOP.
OB 81 for power supply errors is an exception.
Calls of error organization blocks are also displayed in the diagnostics buffer of the CPU.
The errors are divided into two error classes:
Synchronous errors
A synchronous error is generated by the CPU operating system if an error occurs that is directly related
to the program processing. Synchronous errors are divided into programming error and access errors. If
a synchronous error occurs the operating system calls the associated error organization block.
Asynchronous errors
Asynchronous errors are errors that can occur independently of the program processing. If an
asynchronous error occurs the operating system calls the associated error organization block.
3.1
Synchronous errors
Synchronous errors are determined directly during the processing of an instruction. If, for example,
access to a DB2 data block is programmed in the program and if the block is not available in the CPU, a
synchronous error has occurred.
With such a programming error, the organization block OB121 is called; if this is not available the CPU
goes to STOP and the red SF LED (group error) lights up.
An access error is triggered by a direct access to a defect or non-available module.
This happens, for example, if a faulty address is programmed for the access to an analog input is
programmed via peripheral input and outputs (see module SCE_EN_030-050_R1201_Analog value
processing with SIMATIC S7-300) an incorrect address is programmed.
The operating system calls OB 122 when there is an access error; if this OB is not available the CPU
goes to STOP.

Page 7 of 33

3.2
Asynchronous errors
Asynchronous errors cannot be assigned to any specific program position as these are triggered by
failures and faults in the hardware used.
In other words, they occur asynchronously to the program processing.
Examples of asynchronous errors are:
Type of error:
Examples:
Error OB:
Time error
Exceeding the max. cycle time
OB 80
Diagnostic error interrupt
Wire break at input of a diagnostics

capable module
Remove/insert a module
OB 82
Error when the operating system

accesses a block
Failure of a DP master system or a
station with distributed I/O modules
(PROFIBUS DP or PROFINET IO) or
the rack with the S7-400.
Wrong frame identification
OB 85
Remove/insert interrupt
Program execution error
Rack failure (S7-400 only)
Communications errors
OB 83
OB 86
OB 87
Note: Additional information regarding asynchronous errors is available in the online help of the TIA
Portal.

4.
Examples of OB121 synchronous errors (programming errors)

For our example we will build a programming error into the project 'DB_Lager' from module
SCE_EN_030-030_R1201_Data blocks with SIMATIC S7-300 in OB1.
In the following section a project is to be opened for SIMATIC S7-300, the project is to be stored
under a different name and adapted to the new requirements:
1.
The central tool is the 'Totally Integrated Automation Portal', which is opened here with a
double-click. ( Totally Integrated Automation Portal V11)
2.
Open the 'DB_Store' project from the SCE_EN_030_030 module in the portal view as a
template for this program. ( Open existing project DB_Store Open)

Page 9 of 33


3.
'First steps' for configuring are now suggested. We want to 'Open the project view'. ( Open
the project view)
4.
Start by saving the project under a different name. ( Project Save as)

Page 10 of 33


5.
'Save' the project under the new name 'DB_Store_Diagnostics'.

( DB_Store_Diagnostics Save)
6.
To make the changes, double-click the 'Main [OB1]' block to open it. ( Main [OB1])

Page 11 of 33


7.
To simulate a programming error, change the configuration of the IN tag 'assignment_lp1' to

'DB2.DBW0'. This causes an access to a data block that does not exist in the CPU 315F-2
PN/DP. ( assignment_lp1 DB2.DBW0)

Page 12 of 33


8.
To load your entire program to the CPU, first select the 'PLC_1 [CPU 315F-2 PN/DP]' folder and
then click the Download to device icon

13. Under 'Online & Diagnostics' you can now view the alarm associated with the error event in the
'Diagnostics buffer'. The event with the number 1 is a consequence of the actual error 'DB not
loaded' under no. 2. Here you can also see which organization block is requested by this event.
( PLC_1 [CPU 315F-2 PN/DP] Online & Diagnostics Diagnostics Diagnostics buffer)
Note: The CPU goes to STOP here, as the requested program error OB121 is not available in the
CPU.

Page 17 of 33


14. We will now create the corresponding OB121 to prevent our CPU from going to STOP when our
error occurs. ( PLC_1 [CPU 315F-2 PN/DP] Program blocks Add new block
Organization block Fault interrupts PROG_ERR [OB 121] FBD OK)

Page 18 of 33


15. All details about the call event are available in the temporary tags within the block PROG_ERR
[OB 121]. If necessary, you can react here depending on the various errors in the program. We
now load '
' this empty organization block PROG_ERR [OB 121] into the controller.

the CPU. ( Finish)
18. Now, despite the error, the CPU does not go to STOP. However, two entries are written to the
'Diagnostics buffer' during each processing cycle, as DB2 is missing and there is therefore
also no access to the data word 0 in this DB. The diagnostics LED SF is still lit up red.

5.
Configuring Web server and system diagnostics for the CPU 315F-2 PN/DP
The system diagnostics function in the hardware configuration of the CPU can be used to create the
fault organization blocks to the asynchronous errors and to automatically generate error messages to
the hardware faults.
These messages can be viewed conveniently in the Web server along with other information using
the integrated Web server of the CPU 315F-2 PN/DP.
In the following section the system diagnostics will be activated for the CPU 315F-2 PN/DP and the
Web browser created:
1.
First we want to create a 'WatchTable_Store', in order to view this as well in the Web browser
later. For more information on the watch and force tables, refer to the module
SCE_EN_020_060. (PLC_1 [CPU 315F-2 PN/DP] Watch and force tables
WatchTable_Store "DB_StoreAssignment.LP1" "DB_StoreAssignment.LP8")

Page 21 of 33


2.
We open the 'Device configuration' and activate the 'Web server' there in the properties of the
CPU 315F-2 PN/DP. (PLC_1 [CPU 315F-2 PN/DP] Device configuration

3.
Activate Web
It is generally true that remote access to a PLC represents a security risk. Take this into
consideration in your network structure; for example, set a firewall to ensure that only authorized
persons have access and then confirm the security prompt. ( OK)

Page 22 of 33


4.
Then activate system diagnostics. The information from the system diagnostics can also be
displayed in the Web server. ( Yes)
5.
Numerous properties have to be set for the Web server. Here we activate the 'automatic
update' and 'English' as language for the Web server. English is then also assigned as
'Project language'. ( Automatic update
Project language: English)

Page 23 of 33
Activate Languages
English


6.
In the item 'Watch tables' we enter our previously created 'WatchTable_Store'. ( Watch
tables WatchTable_Store
7.
We leave the defaults in place in the details to the properties of the 'System diagnostics'. We
compile the changes in our station 'PLC_1Conveyor [CPU 315F-2 PZN/DP]'. We can see
the created OBs in the Program blocks folder.
(System diagnostics PLC_1Conveyor [CPU 315F-2 PN/DP]
