The CP 1542SP-1 is used for connecting the ET 200SP Distributed Controller to Industrial Ethernet networks. With its own processor, it relieves the CPU of communication tasks.

The CP 1542SP-1 offers possible communication with:

• PGs/PCs,
• master computers
• operator control and monitoring systems,
• SIMATIC S7 systems

The CP 1542SP-1 is used in the ET 200SP system to operate lower-level networks separately, or to implement a separation from the higher-level network.

Application: automation network and lower-level networks are to be operated separately
