3 Project Planning
3.1 Requirements
PC and software The UFF41B fieldbus gateway for MOVIGEAR®SNI is taken into operation using a plug-
in in the SEW software MOVITOOLS®MotionStudio from version 5.6 and higher. In
order to use MOVITOOLS®MotionStudio, you need a PC with one of the following
operating systems: Windows®95, Windows®98, Windows®NT 4.0, Windows®2000 or
Windows®XP.
3.2 Required devices
The application can be implemented with the following devices:
• UFF41B fieldbus gateway with OMG42B SD-card for connection to a PROFIBUS or
DeviceNet fieldbus system
• MOVIFIT®SNI type MTN11A000-503-E4-.. (standard design)
• MOVIGEAR®SNI (standard design)
3.3 Project planning information
Depending on the selected process data profile (1, 2 or 3 PD per drive, 1 or 2 PD per
MOVIFIT®SNI), you can control up to 6 MOVIFIT®SNI in conjunction with 57
MOVIGEAR®SNI drive systems via fieldbus gateway. The various profiles can be
combined depending on the functions required in the driveline. It is important during the
project planning for a system that the required functions (process data profiles) can be
covered by the process data words available. If the number of drivelines requires more
than 64 process data words, more than one fieldbus gateway will have to be used.
3.4 Addressing
3.4.1 Important notes
Select the IP addresses of the fieldbus and MOVIFIT®SNI in such a way that they are
located in the same subnet. Besides, you have to enter the complete subnet mask and
address of the standard gateway.
The IP addresses of the fieldbus gateway, of MOVIFIT®SNI, and of the PC used for
setting the parameters must differ in the range defined in the subnet and must be
unequal 0 or 255 in the last byte.

3.4.2 Addressing options of the UFF41B fieldbus gateway
You have two options to set up the engineering access to the UFF41B fieldbus gateway:
• Via USB interface (X35) (see section "Communication via USB")
• Via Ethernet interface (X37) (see section "Communication via Ethernet")
Communication via USB (direct)
Connecting the
unit with the PC
using an USB
connection cable
The illustration shows how the unit (in the example a fieldbus gateway [3]) is connected
with the PC [1] using a USB connection cable [2]. It also shows how the fieldbus gateway
[3] is connected with the lower-level unit [5].
Do the following to connect the UFx41B fieldbus gateway with the PC and lower-level
units:
1. Plug the Aconnector of the USB cable [2] into a free USB port on your PC [1].
2. Plug the Bconnector of the USB cable [2] into the USB port (X35 with UFF41B) on
your fieldbus gateway [3].
3. Connect the SBus interface of the fieldbus gateway [3] with the SBus interface of the
lower-level unit [5].

PC
The following figure shows the connection between the PC/laptop [1] and the UFx41B
[4].
The UFx41B can be connected either directly to the PC or via an Ethernet network.
The Ethernet interface X37 supports auto crossing and auto negotiation for baud rate
and duplex mode. Set the IP parameters of UFF41B as described in the chapter
"Addressing the fieldbus gateways and MOVIFIT®SNI".
Adjusting the
engineering PC to
the network
(address)
To set the engineering PC appropriately for the network (addressing), proceed as
follows:
1. Under [Start] / [Settings] / [Network and Dial-up Connections], select the required PC
interface.
2. Select "Properties" from the context menu.
3. Activate the "Internet protocol (TCP/IP)" check box.
4. Click on the "Properties" button.
5. For the subnet mask and standard gateway, enter the same IP addresses that are
used for other Ethernet stations in this local network.
6. For the engineering PC, enter an IP address that meets the following conditions:
• In the blocks that define the network, the address section of the engineering PC
must correspond with the address section of the other Ethernet stations.
• In the blocks that define the station, the address section of the engineering PC
must be different from the address section of the other Ethernet stations.
• Do not assign the values "0", "4", "127" and "255" in the last block.

3.5 Description of functions
3.5.1 Possible MOVIGEAR®functions
The MOVIGEAR®functions are used to control a drive individually. The different
functions is assigned a specific number of process data words. This means the
individual drives share the 64 available process data (PD).
•1 PD drive function
The 1 PD drive function allows for controlling a MOVIGEAR®with fixed speeds by
means of a process data word. You can configure 4 ramp sets and 6 fixed speeds by
clicking the [Ramps] and [Fixed speeds] buttons.
•2 PD drive function
The 2 PD drive function allows for controlling a MOVIGEAR®with a user-specific
speed by means of two process data words. You can configure 4 ramp sets by
clicking the [Ramps] button.
•3 PD drive function
The 3 PD drive function allows for controlling a MOVIGEAR®with a user-specific
speed by means of three process data words. The third process data word can be
used for controlling the local inputs/outputs or for displaying the actual current. You
can configure 4 ramp sets by clicking the [Ramps] button.
•1(2) PD axis function
The 1(2) PD axis function allows for controlling the positioning functions integrated
in MOVIGEAR®. This is achieved either by means of fixed speeds or by a user-
defined speed. You can configure 4 ramp sets by clicking the [Ramps] button. The
relevant positioning function is configured in the MOVIVISION®software (see
MOVIGEAR®SNI system manual, chapter 11).
