SIMATIC 545/555/575 System Manual
Upgrading a 520/520C/530/530C/530T System (continued)
Determine the number of I/O slots in the base to be upgraded. For some
bases, a PPX:500–5840 adapter base must be installed. The 14-slot, 12-slot
and 6-slot bases (Upgrade Path A) do not require an adapter base. For a
16-slot or 8-slot base (Upgrade Path B), you need to install an adapter base.
!
WARNING
Do not attempt to install or remove modules from powered-up bases.
Installing or removing any module from a powered-up base could cause
unexpected operation which could cause death or serious injury to personnel,
and/or damage to equipment.
Disable all power to bases before installing or removing modules.
For 14-slot, 12-slot, and 6-slot bases, follow these steps (Upgrade Path A):
1. Remove the existing control device(s): the CPU and IOCC (if an IOCC
is present), or the DBC.
2. If the power supply is in slot B, move it to slot A of the I/O base. This
makes slot B of the I/O base available for an I/O module. In your I/O
configuration, the slot that was previously slot #1 becomes slot #2.
For 16-slot and 8-slot bases, follow these steps (Upgrade Path B):
1. Remove the existing control device(s): the CPU and IOCC (if an IOCC
is present), or the DBC.
2. Install a PPX:500–5840 adapter base. See user manual PPX:500–8140
for information about installing the adapter base.
3. Install an AC (PPX:500–2151A) or DC (PPX:500–2153) power supply in
slot B of the adapter base. Slot A is left empty. See the appropriate user
manuals for information about the power supply.
These steps finish the upgrade for both upgrade paths, A and B.
1. Install an RBC (PPX:500–5114–A) in the controller slot. See
Section C.5 for information about installing the RBC.
2. Set the base address (1–15), using the thumbwheel on the RBC. Base
number 0 is reserved for the local base and cannot be used for an RBC.
3. Connect the twin axial cable to the RS-485 port on the RBC(s) and to
the remote I/O port of the 545/555/575 CPU.
4. Use APT or TISOFT to set the I/O configuration for the upgrade.
