The SIMATIC ET 200MP is a modular and scalable I/O system with IP20 degree of protection for universal use, and offers the same system advantages as the S7-1500. The SIMATIC ET 200MP permits extremely short bus cycles and very fast response times, even with large quantity structures.

SIMATIC ET 200MP consists of the following components:

• Interface module for connecting S7-1500 I/O modules to PROFINET; up to 30 modules can be connected to one interface module
• Interface module for connecting S7-1500 I/O modules to PROFIBUS; up to 12 modules can be connected to one interface module

The SIMATIC ET 200MP distributed I/O system is particularly easy to install, wire, and commission.

Highlights:

• Modular I/O system with IP20 protection for PROFINET or alternatively for PROFIBUS
• Compact dimensions
• High degree of user-friendliness due to the following design features:
  • Uniform 40-pin front connector simplifies ordering, logistics, and warehousing
  • Uniform pin assignment per module type simplifies wiring and helps avoid errors
  • Integrated potential bridges simplify wiring and allow flexible subsequent modification
  • The cable storage space grows along with the requirements and allows a uniform appearance even with insulated conductors with a large cross-section and/or thick insulation
  • The pre-wiring position for the front connector allows convenient wiring both when commissioning and making changes during operation
  • The top hat rail integrated in the S7-1500 DIN rail allows snapping-on of many standard components such as additional terminals, miniature circuit breakers or small relays
  • The 1:1 allocation of channel status and diagnostics LED, terminal and inscription allows fast location and elimination of errors. Assistance is provided by the wiring diagram printed on the inside of the front panels
  • The integrated shielding concept for analog and technology modules allows reliable and rugged operation, in particular with high-speed applications. Installation does not require any tools
  • Particularly space-saving and simple design with slim 25 mm modules;
    the maximum possible station configuration with power supply (PS), interface module (IM) and 30 I/O modules can be accommodated on a 830 mm-wide S7-1500 DIN rail
• Comprehensive product portfolio comprising digital and analog input or output modules, technology modules, and communication modules for point-to-point communication; further modules, e.g. F-modules, will be available soon
• Extensive system functions
  • Integrated system diagnostics when operated with an S7-1500 and the TIA Portal
  • Increased communication availability by using Media Redundancy Protocol (MRP) on the PROFINET;
    in addition, the IM 155-5 PN HF High Feature interface module can be operated on an S7-400H. Configuration is carried out with STEP 7 V5.5 SP3 and a GSDML file. The IM 155-5 PN HF also supports operation on an S7-400H CPU (system redundancy)
  • Consistent use of identification and maintenance data IM0 to IM3 for fast electronic and unambiguous identification of individual modules (Article No., serial number, etc.)
  • Uniform firmware update for the interface module and all I/O modules for subsequent expansion of functions (investment security)
  • Bus cycle time ≥ 250 µs and coupling to the isochronous task permit implementation of applications with high performance requirements with PROFINET
  • Up to 30 I/O modules (PROFINET) or 12 I/O modules (PROFIBUS) within a station save on interface modules and installation time
  • MMC not required with PROFINET; automatic address assignment via LLDP or manually via TIA Portal or PST tool
  • Shared device on up to two (IM 155-5 PN BA and IM 155-5 PN ST) or four (IM 155-5 PN HF) IO Controllers
  • Module shared input / module shared output as system function for all S7-1500 I/O modules
