Product information
Overview
Applications
- Motion Control: Supports Motion Control technology objects, positioning axes, speed-controlled axes, synchronous axes, external encoders, output cams, cam tracks, probes, and kinematics with up to 4 interpolating axes.
- PID control: Supports PID_Compact, PID_3Step for valves, and PID-Temp controllers, each with integrated optimization.
- Industrial communication: Supports PROFINET IO Controller and IO Device functions, SIMATIC communication, Open IE communication, OPC UA, and MODBUS TCP.
Key Features
- Technology CPU: CPU 1515T-2 PN with Motion Control, 2 400 available Motion Control resources, and up to 11 positioning axes at a 4 ms motion control cycle or 20 at 8 ms, typical values.
- Work and load memory: Integrated work memory: 1.5 Mbyte for the program and 4.5 Mbyte for data. Plug-in SIMATIC Memory Card load memory is supported up to 32 Gbyte; a SIMATIC Memory Card is required.
- PROFINET interfaces: The first interface provides PROFINET IRT with a 2-port integrated switch; the second provides PROFINET RT with 1 port. Both use RJ 45 (Ethernet) connections.
- Processing performance: Typical CPU processing times are 6 ns for bit operations, 7 ns for word operations, 9 ns for fixed point arithmetic, and 37 ns for floating point arithmetic.
- Supply and protection: Rated supply voltage is 24 V DC, with a permissible range from 19.2 V to 28.8 V DC and reverse polarity protection.
- Engineering and diagnostics: STEP 7 TIA Portal is configurable/integrated from V21 with FW V4.1 or V18 with FW V3.0 or higher. The CPU supports SysLog, a diagnostic buffer with up to 3 200 entries, and 4 configurable traces.
