System diagnostics and messages
Integrated system diagnostics is enabled by default for the CPUs. The different types of
diagnostics are configured instead of programmed. System diagnostics information is shown
uniformly and in plain text on the display of the CPU, in STEP 7 (TIA Portal), on the HMI and
on the Web server, even for alarms related to drives. This information is available in RUN
mode, but also in STOP mode of the CPU. The diagnostics information is updated
automatically when you configure new hardware components.
The CPU is available as a central interrupt server for 3 languages. The CPU, STEP 7
(TIA Portal) and your HMI guarantee data consistency. You can skip the various engineering
steps, just load it into the CPU. The maintenance work is easier.

Properties

The hardware of the CPU 1512C-1 PN consists of a CPU part, an analog on-board I/O (X10)

CPU therefore occupies a single shared slot (slot 1).
The properties of the CPU part, the analog on-board I/O and the digital on-board I/O can be
found in the subsections below.
