5 Introduction
5.1 Application
The ibaFOB-SD card couples the iba Process Data Acquisition system ibaPDA or the
Soft PLC ibaLogic with the Siemens control system SIMADYN-D. Therefore, the iba-
FOB-SD must be connected to one of the free fiber optic links of the SIMADYN-D
CS12/13 or 14.
By means of the Siemens interface board CP53M0 the ibaFOB-TDC card can be con-
nected with the SIMATIC TDC control system without the need for a GDM.
This new PCI card replaces the “old” ISA card ibaFOB-x/2 SD.
All component parameters are 100% controlled by software. No wiring or jumpering is
necessary for that board.
5.2 Characteristics
The card has the following characteristics:
Fully compliant PCI V2.2 board
1 bi-directional fiber optic channel with 96 Mbit/s
256 kB of PCI dual port-RAM for PC access
Firmware upgrade in the PC via PCI bus without de-installing the card
3 LEDs for each channel indicating CPU life counter (green), optical transmission
status (orange) and processor error (red)
7-segment display for board-ID, indication of sync master board and external or
internal synchronization
No Jumpers or DIL switches, all parameters are software controlled (the switch
on top of the board is for iba internal use only)
Dynamic reassigning of interrupt sources and interrupt generation (board and
driver synchronization)
Absolutely noise free acquisition of process data
100% functional compatibility with predecessor board ibaFOB-x/2 SD (ISA) guar-
anteed
Enhanced SIMADYN-D system diagnostics
Up to 4 ibaFOB-SD cards per PC
Plug and Play installation
5.3 Operational modes
The following operational modes are supported by ibaFOB-SD:
ibaPDA-lite-SD-TDC:
4 cards with max. 512 analog plus 512 binary values are supported by this soft-
ware; supports the ibaPDA-Technostring (a non-structured ASCII string) via the
SD link.

Manual ibaFOB-SD
10 Issue 1.3
ibaPDA-Request-SD (former name Symbolic Request):
Max. 4 boards with up to 50 µP connections (32 analog plus 32 digital signals
each – a maximum of 1600 analog plus 1600 digital signals per card, depending
on ibaPDA-V6 license);
supports the ibaPDA-Technostring (a non-structured ASCII string) via the SD link.
Bi-directional SD/TDC-Lite connection:(4 cards with up to 512 + 512 input values
and 256 + 256 output values) for the ibaLogic Soft-PLC;
supports the non-structured ASCII string via the SD link
Important note
It is not allowed to mix an ibaFOB-SD with an old ibaFOB SD x/2 (ISA) within one PC.
To run the ibaFOB-SD the software versions ibaPDA V4.33 or ibaLogic V3.73 or higher
are required.
5.4 Remarks concerning SIMADYN-D
The coupling partner on the SIMADYN-D side can be CS12, CS13 und CS14 boards.
The boards only differ in the amount of links supported by the cards (1, 4 or 8). If in the
following text the CS14 is referred to the meaning is valid for CS12 and CS13 too.
The CS14 is the coupling partner in the master rack. The max 8 slaves are connected
via their CS22 cards or the ibaFOB-SD card. The physical connection is bi-directional
fiber optic links in a start topology.
The communication RAM is located within the CS14. Via this memory the slaves may
communicate with the master and/or other slaves.
The ibaPDA PC with his ibaFOB-SD card acts like a SIMADYN-D slave rack.
This topology enables the ibaFOB-SD to communicate in theory with every processor
in one of the connected racks (max 7) or the master rack. This would be up to
64 CPUs.
In reality the amount of connectable CPUs per ibaFOB-SD is limited to max. 50.
5.5 Remarks concerning CP53M0
The board is available in Simatic TDC (D7-SYS V7.1 or higher).
The board can be configured as master or slave. In master mode one port can be used
for connection to ibaPDA/ibaLogic with ibaFOB-SD card. The other port provides for
connection to a slave rack. The slave rack can be either SIMADYN D with CS22-board
or SIMATIC TDC with CP53-board (slave mode). When operated in slave mode the 2nd
port cannot be used.

5.6 Remarks on the measurement principle
To measure SIMADYN-D system numeric values must be transported between the SD
system and the PC, which means that internal variables of the SD system may be
visualized and recorded. For recording purposes 2 different software packages are
provided by iba.
Request-SD
The definition of the signals to be measured is independent of the connected sys-
tem. All changes are done in ibaPDA. ibaPDA supports the functionality to inter-
pret the SD address book and communicate with the SD in a way that any inter-
nal variable of any processor may be requested from the PLC. To do that for
every SD CPU two function blocks must be included in the CFC/STRUC plan of
the SD-system. These FBs support overload protection to avoid high system
loads by ibaPDA.
SD/TDC-Lite
All measuring values are pre-programmed and a fixed part of the logic plan of
SD. Changing of signals requires a change in this plan. Process telegrams are to
be defined which transport the values from (to) ibaPDA (ibaLogic) containing 32
analog plus 32 digital variables each. There is no need for the SD address book.
ibaLogic only works with SD-Lite channels (bi-directional).

7 Software configuration in ibaPDA-V6
Other documentation
For a more detailed description of the board’s configuration in ibaPDA-V6 please refe
r
to the ibaPDA-V6 manual or online help and ibaPDA-Request-SD manual.
If card has been installed correctly and the license is enabled in the dongle the card
should be available in the I/O manager’s signal tree as a data interface.
If you click on the interface icon in the tree you will get a simplified image of the card
and essential information in the right part of the dialog. Here, you should set the re-
quired interrupt mode of the card and check the option “In use” in order to reserve the
card for use by ibaPDA-V6 only (and not by other applications such as ibaLogic).
