Starter solution with Industrial Ethernet communication for Simatic controllers

A new communications processor is suitable for the Simatic S7-300 controllers for small to medium Industrial Ethernet communications solutions: the CP 343-1 Lean from Siemens Automation and Drives (A&D) can connect a controller with up to 12 partner devices. The new module, which is only half as wide as the other Ethernet CPs for Simatic S7-300, possesses the communications functions required for industrial applications.

Communication is possible using the following protocols: TCP/IP with RFC1006, TCP native, UDP, IP-Multicast, S5-compatible communication and S7 communication (server). The module supports SNMP to permit integration of the Simatic controller into network management systems. "Autosensing" permits the CP 343-1 Lean to automatically detect the transmission rate of 10 or 100 megabits/second. Equipped with mechanical "sleeves", the RJ45 connection is particularly suitable in addition to standard RJ45 connectors for the FastConnect RJ45 plug. The new CP is configured and diagnosed using Step 7, just like the other Ethernet CPs. The communications processor can be replaced without the necessity for a programming device since all configuration data are saved on the controller's CPU.
