OR
a standard "null modem" cable (RS232 serial communication cable 9 pin connector)
is connected witht the 15 pin connector on the diagnostic panel with the following
configuration:
2. Create a file for storing diagnostic datas on the laptop by inputting the following
command Set | String
4. Enter the folder and file name in the monitor buttom line.
At most 8 letters or numbers are permitted, followed by a dot and three signs expansion i.e. txt.
(E:\S3 Tools\12276PPT.TXT) as shown below.
5. Start recording by inputting the following command in the editor menu of monitor
Set | Record
a small window pops up, select Create
At this moement, all datas from the serial connection are written into the file. The type of file is
ASC (text file).
Only then can a comprehensive analysis be made. When required, experts from Siemens
service can provide support. Data is centrally read-out via the MVB using the service connector
(located to the right of the driver’s control desk) or via a serial service interface of one of the
control units in SIBAS.
The event memory should only be erased once the cause of the fault has been identified!
Erasing the memory itself is also saved as an event. The events available at this instant are re-
entered, however, the original data relating to the environment are overwritten by data that is
presently available at that instant in time.
Component test
The component test routine is performed when starting up – with a different scope - and
automatically after specific diagnostic events. For troubleshooting, it can also be manually
started via a menu in the CPU
Commissioning | Run Comp. Test.
If a fault is found during the component test, then an appropriate diagnostics entry is

Software Traco
Using the Software Traco the characteristics of up to 32 freely selectable software signals can
be recorded in the CPU and SIP memory. (Traco = Transient recorder)
The record can be triggered using any signals from the software. Two trigger signals can be
specified. It is also possible to trigger the record from analog signals - or from the CPU.
The record can be triggered from a diagnostics or operational event to be traced by specifying
the signal DMxyz.IN as trigger source. “xyz” stands in this case for the event code – whereby
for two-digit event code, a leading zero should be added.
A trigger delay of between 0 and 100% can be set.
Any time slice can be specified as sampling time; a sub-sampling factor can also be specified.
The fastest time slice is typically 250us. This means that signal recording times ranging from
several milliseconds up to several hours are possible. The record time is calculated and
displayed after entering the associated parameters.
Observer
The observer is a standard function of the SIBAS monitor and allows up to eight software
signals to be continuously monitored online. When monitoring is stopped – either manually or as
a result of a trigger signal that can be set – the signal characteristics with respect to time are
saved.
The possible event responses and the resulting operational restrictions are specified in this
Chapter. The necessary measures to restore operational readiness are also specified in this
chapter.
The event responses are those made from the CPU, supplemented by additional event
responses by the SIP and CCB including messages on the driver’s cab display.
F Soft Stop Inverter A/B Blocker after reaching zero torque.Torque value
