Connecting devices to networks

The following options are available for integrating devices into existing or planned system
environments and networks.
Ethernet
You can use the integrated Ethernet interface X2 PN/IE (LAN) (10/100/1000 Mbps) for
communication and data exchange with automation devices, for example, SIMATIC S7.
You need suitable software to do this: STEP 7, WinCC, SIMATIC NET.

Securing cables

The strain relief for connecting cables prevents the USB cables and PROFINET connectors
detaching from the CPU 1515SP PC. The strain relief is included in the scope of delivery.
Flying sparks due to loose cables
Risk of explosion in hazardous areas.
USB cables and PROFINET connectors may detach from the device in the case of strong
oscillation and high vibrating loads.
Attach these cables to the strain relief of the device using cable ties.
Requirements
● The strain relief is fixed to the CPU.
● The CPU is installed.
