Application

Two compact CPUs with differing performance ranges are available for SIMATIC S7-1500:

• CPU 1511C-1 PN: 
  with integrated I/Os and technological functions for applications with medium requirements on the program scope and processing speed, for distributed setup via PROFINET IO.

Overview 

• The compact CPU with integral digital and analog inputs and outputs in the product spectrum of the S7-1500 Controllers
• With integrated technological functions, e.g. high-speed counter (HSC), frequency measurement, period duration measurement or stepper motor control, pulse duration modulation, frequency output
• Suitable for applications with medium requirements for program scope and processing speed
• Used as central controller in production lines with central and distributed I/O
• PROFINET IO IRT interface with 2-port switch
• PROFINET IO Controller for operating distributed I/O on PROFINET
• PROFINET I-Device for connecting the CPU as an intelligent PROFINET device under a SIMATIC or non-Siemens PROFINET IO Controller
• OPC UA Server (Data Access) as runtime option for the easy connection of SIMATIC S7-1500 to third-party devices/systems
• Isochronous mode
• Integrated motion control functionalities for controlling speed-controlled and positioning axes, support for external encoders, cams/cam tracks and probes
• Integrated web server for diagnostics with the option of creating user-defined web pages
