S7-CX317

Since the new S7-CX series behaves like a original SIMATIC PLC, the programming tools S7 for Windows® and STEP7 can be used. Online connections can be established via Ethernet. The S7-CX executes a program in the same manner as a hardware PLC. The program of a S7-PLC can be transferred to the S7-CX series.
As hardware platform for the S7-CX, the modular DIN rail PCs of the CX series of the Beckhoff automation GmbH is used. The fieldbus used to control the central and the distributed I/O primarily is EtherCAT (Real-Time Ethernet).
 

RAM: 16MB
Load memory: 4MB
Retain memory: 64kB
Processing time: 0,075µs/Instr.

 

• PG functions with Step7 or S7 for Windows® over Ethernet with the ISO on TCP (RFC1006) or the IBHLink protocol
• S7 for Windows® KIT-Version included
• Online connections via PROFIBUS-DP are possible with the Beckhoff PROFIBUS Master EL6731. Operator panels (OPs) and PU devices can be connected in the usual way to PROFIBUS-DP.
• HMI applications can connect via ISO on TCP (RFC1006), the IBHLink protocol or via the optional IBH OPC Server for the visualization PC. Diagnostics and HMI via Intranet/Internet with the integrated web server.
• PLC to PLC communication via the integrated Ethernet CP.
• Based on the reliable and flexible Beckhoff hardware.
• In conjunction with the Beckhoff TwinSAFE modules, safety functions (f.i. emergency stop) can be realized very easy and cost-efficient with the S7-CX315, S7-CX317 and S7-CX416 PLC.
• Using the EtherCAT technology, it is possible to integrate other fieldbus segments, as for instance PROFIBUS DP, CANOpen, AS-i, DeviceNet, ControlNet, Modbus, Fipio, CC-Link, EtherNet/IP, and SERCOS interface at any place of the EtherCAT network.
• For the operation in building automation, the bus systems LON, EIB/KNX, MP, as well as DALI are available.
• Special functions for the peripheral devices (ADS functions) can be called via integrated function blocks.
