Communication

7.3.1

GET and PUT (Ethernet)

You can use the GET and PUT instructions for communication between S7-200 SMART
CPUs through the Ethernet connection.
Note
The CPU models CPU CR20s, CPU CR30s, CPU CR40s, and CPU CR60s have no
Ethernet port and do not support any functions related to the use of Ethernet
communications.
Table 7- 1 GET and PUT instructions
LAD/FBD
You can have any number of GET and PUT instructions in the program, but only a maximum
of 16 GET and PUT instructions can be activated at any one time. For example, you can
have eight GET and eight PUT instructions, or six GET and ten PUT instructions, active at
the same time in a given CPU.
When you execute a GET or PUT instruction, the CPU makes an Ethernet connection to the
remote IP address in the GET or PUT table. The CPU maintains a maximum of eight
connections at a time. Once a connection is established, that connection is maintained until
the CPU goes to STOP mode.
