– Interfaces
The CPU 1511-1 PN has a PROFINET interface with two ports. The two ports have
the same IP address and form the interface to the fieldbus level (switch functionality).
– Integrated Web server
The CPU status query is independent of a software installation. Graphically visualized
process variables and user-defined websites facilitate information acquisition.
– All CPUs of the S7-1500 automation system support trace functionality.
Trace functionality is independent of the technology and supports you in
debugging/optimizing the user program. It is particularly useful for Motion Control
and control applications.
– Standard Motion Control
PLC Open blocks for programming motion functionality by means
of PROFINET IO IRT and PROFIdrive interface.
The functionality supports speed-controlled axes, positioning axes
and external encoders.
– Integrated control functionality
Universal PID controllers or 3-point controllers with integrated tuning.
Integrated temperature controller
– System diagnostics is automatically generated and consistently displayed.
– Know-how protection
User programs can be securely protected against unauthorized access and
modification.
– Copy protection
User program blocks are linked to the serial number of the SIMATIC memory card
or of the module. User programs cannot run without the corresponding
SIMATIC memory card or module.
– Access protection
Extended access protection provides comprehensive protection against unauthorized
configuration changes. Authorization levels can be used to assign separate rights to
different user groups.
– Integrity protection
The system protects the data transferred to the CPU from unauthorized manipulation.
Altered or external transmission of engineering data is reliably detected by the CPU.
