Fast command processing, depending on the CPU type, language extensions and new data types
High-performance network connection: via PROFINET IO IRT.
Integrated technology
Connection of analog and PROFIdrive-capable drives via standardized blocks (PLCopen)
Support of speed-controlled and positioning axes as well as external encoders
Precise position gearing for synchronous operation between axes
Trace functions for all CPU tags, both for diagnostics in real time as well as for sporadic error detection
Comprehensive control functionalities, e.g. easily configurable blocks for automatic optimization of the control parameters for optimum control quality
Isochronous mode
Synchronous coupling of distributed signal acquisition, signal transmission, and program execution to the PROFINET cycle with constant bus cycle time
Security Integrated
Password-based know-how protection against unauthorized read-out and modification of program blocks
Copy protection for tying individual blocks to the serial number of the SIMATIC Memory Card: The block can only run if the configured memory card is inserted into the CPU.
4-level authorization concept: Communication to the HMI devices can also be restricted.
Manipulation protection: The controller recognizes changed or unauthorized transmissions of the engineering data.
Integrated system diagnostics
System diagnostics information is displayed consistently and in plain text in the TIA Portal, HMI devices and Web server, even for messages from the drives, and is updated even if the CPU is in STOP mode.
Integrated into the firmware of the CPU, no special configuration is required
Configuration control (option handling) in central setup
Different hardware configurations can be stored in the controller: Modification of the configuration in the user program (startup OB100) Retrofitting of options at end of configuration Use of placeholder modules is possible.
SIMATIC Memory Card (required for operation of the CPU)
Used as a plug-in load memory or for updating the firmware.
Also for storing additional documents or csv files (for recipes and archives)
Creation of data blocks for storage/reading of data via SFCs of the user program
With ET 200SP Open Controllers, Windows, Runtime, project data and program are all stored on the CFast card supplied. The slot for the memory card is used in this case only as an additional drive for Windows.
CFast card for the ET 200SP Open Controller (included in delivery package)
Preinstalled S7-1500 Software Controller
Preinstalled operating system and optionally preinstalled WinCC Runtime Advanced software
Datalog (archives) and recipes
Storage of csv files for recipes and archives on the SIMATIC Memory Card; easy access to plant-relevant operating data using Office tools or via a Web server
Easy access to machine configuration data by means of a Web browser or SD card reader (two-way data exchange from and to the controller)
Programming
Programming with STEP 7 Professional, V13 update 3 and higher (ET 200SP Open Controller: V13 SP1 or higher)
