TS Adapter II

Main features of TS Adapter II:

• Single-width standard S7-300 housing
• Mounted onto DIN or S7-profile rail, therefore no time-consuming cabinet installation required using a mounting plate
• Integral modem, either analog or ISDN as required
• USB interface for parameterization. This interface can also be used locally as a programming interface for the connected devices
• Serial RS232 interface for connecting external modems (e.g. wireless modem)
• Firmware with update capability
• Power supply over MPI or over external 24 V power supply
• Connection of an external modem, e.g. a GSM wireless modem, over serial interface
• Can be connected to:
  
  • MPI
  • PROFIBUS DP up to 12 Mbit/s (previously 1.5 Mbit/s)
  • PPI

Scope of delivery:

The following components are supplied with the TS Adapter II:

• DVD with driver
• TeleService software V6.1 (Can be used for 14 days). For further operation, a license is required)
• MPI cable, 0.8 m, for connecting the adapter to the MPI/DP interface
• Standard telephone cable, 3 m, with RJ12 connectors (only for TS Adapter II modem)
• Standard telephone cable, 3 m, with RJ45 connectors (only for ISDN TS Adapter II)
• TAE6N plug (only for TS Adapter II modem)

When using the TS Adapter II modem outside Germany, a standard national telephone plug can be snapped onto the RJ12 connector. A TAE6N connector is supplied for Germany. In some countries, telephone sockets with RJ12 sockets are available, in which case telephone cables can be used without the need for a telephone plug.

For operation, TeleService Software Version 6.0 is required.

TS Adapter IE

Main features of TS Adapter IE:

• Single-width standard S7-300 housing
• Mounting on DIN or S7 rail
• Integral modem, either analog or ISDN as required
• Firmware with update capability
• Power supply over external 24 V power supply
• Serial interface for connection of an external modem, e.g. a GSM wireless modem
• An RJ45 Ethernet interface (10/100 Mbit/s)
• Industry-compatible in accordance with SIMATIC standard

Parameterization:

The TS Adapter IE can be parameterized locally or over a remote link. TeleService software V6.1 or an Internet browser is used for this purpose.

The firewall is parameterized easily by selecting and deselecting the appropriate services with a click of the mouse button. In "expert mode", the adapter can also be parameterized like a standard router.

Security:

Only dial-in access is possible: The service engineer dials into the adapter using a supplied telephone number. Authentication is performed by means of a user log-in with a password and Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol (CHAP). Up to 8 user accounts can be created with different log-ins and passwords.

As an option, e.g. for security reasons or to save telephone charges, the TS Adapter IE will interrupt the connection following correct authentication and call the user back on the telephone number stored in the TS Adapter IE.

The implemented firewall protects the plant from unauthorized access over the Internet. By default, the firewall only permits S7 communication. The required services, e.g. Sm@rt-Access, Sm@rt-Service or PCAnywhere, can be individually enabled during parameterization. For sending e-mails, it is necessary to enable the SMTP protocol and to set the parameters for outgoing calls. It is also possible to block all incoming data packets during connection to the Internet.

Scope of delivery:

The following components are supplied with the TS Adapter IE:

• CD with drivers and TeleService V 6.1 software (can be used for 2 weeks without a license) including standard software for sending e-mails from S7 CPUs
• Standard telephone cable, 3 m, with RJ12 connectors (only for TS Adapter IE modem)
• Standard telephone cable, 3 m, with RJ45 connectors (only for ISDN TS Adapter IE)
• TAE6N plug (only for TS Adapter IE modem)

When using the analog TS Adapter IE outside Germany, a standard country-specific telephone plug can be snapped onto the RJ12 connector. A TAE6N connector is supplied for Germany. In some countries, telephone sockets with RJ12 sockets are available, in which case telephone cables can be used without the need for a telephone plug.

TS Adapter IE Basic

The TS Adapter IE Basic in SIMATIC S7-1200 design is optimized for operation with SIMATIC S7-1200. It can also be used with S7-300 and S7-400. The adapter has a modular design and comprises the following:

• Basic unit TS Adapter IE Basic
• TS module
  • TS module modem:
    Contains an analog modem for the connection to the analog telephone network
  • TS module ISDN:
    Contains a terminal adapter for the connection to the ISDN network
  • TS module RS232:
    With RS232 interface for connecting an external modem
  • TS module GSM:
    Contains a wireless modem for connecting to the GSM/GPRS network

Only the combination of a basic unit TS Adapter IE Basic and a TS module forms a complete functional unit (total unit). Basic unit and TS module are connected via a connector and assembled together.

The functions of the TS Adapter are implemented in the basic unit. The basic unit has an Ethernet interface for connecting to PGs, PCs, or automation system. The basic unit is supplied with 24 V DC and grounded via a socket board.

The TS modules form the electrical interface to the telephone network. They are supplied with electricity from the basic unit through the shared connector.

TS Adapter IE Basic (basic unit) and the TS module can be installed differently:

• Installing on the S7-300 standard rail. This requires an optionally available standard sectional rail adapter
• Installation on a standard rail
• Wall mounting
• Enclosure mounting

Product package

The following are supplied with the basic unit TS Adapter IE Basic:

• DVD "SIMATIC TeleService Edition" with software and documentation
• Support collar for Ethernet plug

TS Adapter IE Advanced

The TS Adapter IE Advanced makes it possible to access via the Internet all plant automation components, such as S7-CPUs, which are connected to Industrial Ethernet. To facilitate this a TIA Portal Version V12 SP1 or higher is required which runs on a programming device/PC under Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008.

TS Adapter IE Advanced connection types:

• Direct connection to programming device/PC:
  The TS Adapter IE Advanced can be parameterized with direct connection to the programming device/PC via Ethernet (LAN)
• Connection to the GSM network (GPRS):
  For connection to the GSM network, the TS Adapter IE Advanced must be operated together with the TS module GSM
• Connection to the Internet via DSL:
  For connection to the Internet, a DSL router must be operated at the WAN port of the TS Adapter IE Advanced
• Connection to the company network:
  Connection to the company network takes place directly at the WAN port of the TS Adapter IE Advanced

The TS Adapter IE Advanced has the following technical features:

• Standard S7-1200 housing, with 55 mm width
• Direct connection to system network (Industrial Ethernet); 2 ports (LAN)
• Connection to public grid; 1 port (WAN)
