• The TIM 3V-IE enables a SIMATIC S7-300 to exchange data with other SINAUT ST7 or ST1 stations via any SINAUT network. The important SINAUT property - saving data complete with a time stamp on the TIM in the event of an interrupted link or failure of the partner - is then available not only for conventional WANs, but also for IP-based networks. Important events, alarms, etc. are not lost and the integrity of information in control center system archives is assured.
• The TIM 3V-IE module is particularly suitable for configuring low-cost stations, but also allows a simple S7-300 control center to be implemented. The module cannot be used in a SINAUT node station or combined with other TIMs in a control center.
• The SINAUT TD7 software for the CPU (TD7onCPU) is now integrated in the TIM 3V-IE (TD7onTIM). This enables the smallest S7 CPUs 312 and 312C to be used, because in the most favorable situation, no CPU RAM is required any more for SINAUT. (This does not apply to communication with SINAUT ST1 partners or the transmission of text messages; in these cases, the SINAUT TD7 software must be used for the CPU (TD7onCPU).) One TIM 3V-IE can be used per S7-300 and one of the two interfaces (RS232 or RJ45) can be used for SINAUT communication (not both simultaneously). PG communication is possible at any time over the Ethernet interface.
• Message frame memory for up to 16000 data message frames
• Up to eight S7 connections via IP-based networks

Controllable communication modules:

• Control of the GSM/GPRS modems MD720-3 in GSM or GPRS mode. In GPRS mode, simple 128-bit encryption via the MD720-3 (MSC-VPN tunnel protocol).
• Operation via SIMATIC NET Ethernet components with high IPsec security standard (e.g. GPRS router or SCALANCE S)
• Use of SCALANCE fiber-optic switches for spanning long distances
• Wireless transmission via IWLAN with SCALANCE W over medium distances
• Dedicated line modem MD2 for point-to-point, point-to-multipoint or line connections
• Wireless devices from various manufacturers, also for private mobile radio using the time slot method
• Analog dial-up modem MD3 for the analog telephone network or point-to-point dedicated lines
