System function
To activate the SIMOTION Kernel stored on the card, call in the user program the
_activateConfiguration system function with the kernel := YES parameter. In the kernelId
parameter, specify the last six characters of the directory name on the memory card (example:
Directory name = VE004156, kernelId = 16#004156).
The syntax of this system function is described in detail in the "System Functions/Variables
Devices" List Manual (reference list) and in the online help (see index).
Specify the configuration to be activated in the projectData and projectDataId parameters:
● projectData := NO: The projectDataId parameter will be ignored; the initial configuration will
● projectData := YES: The configuration specified in the projectDataId (UDINT data type)
Note
When activating a kernel and the associated configuration, please note:
● Retentive global device variables are always initialized.
● The values of the following variables of the last active configuration can be preserved:
● If the SINAMICS Safety Integrated Functions configuration is used, an acceptance test is
● After restarting the SIMOTION device, check the Activation state of the kernel and the
