What are the customer benefits?
• Extension of the Technology-CPU portfolio
by the CPUs 1516T(F)-3 PN/DP
• All technology CPUs feature the new tech-
nology object TO_Kinematics. With the
TO_Kinematics, you can implement com-
plex motion control applications for con-
trolling 2D, 3D and 4D kinematics.
• Extension of the CPU portfolio by the CPUs
1518(F)-4 PN/DP MFP (multifunctional
platform)
• The CPU can execute STEP 7 blocks of the
"usual" user program as well as blocks and
applications programmed with C/C++.
• The multifunctional platform offers you
the option of running C/C++ code syn-
chronously in the CPU cycle (via the CPU
function library). In addition, the multi-
functional platform can run C/C++ applica-
tions as separate applications in parallel to
CPU runtime.
• With C/C++ applications you can imple-
ment parallel processes for the STEP 7 us-
er program, e.g. for pre-processing or
sending data via Industrial Ethernet. A CPU
can perform several tasks at the same
time, the complexity of functions is re-
duced and the time required for imple-
mentation is reduced.
• You can re-use existing technological
know-how in C/C++ code synchronously
and asynchronously to the STEP 7 user
program.
As an alternative to manual entry of pass-
word, you can connect a password provider to
STEP 7. A password provider offers you the
following advantages:
• More convenient handling of passwords.
STEP 7 automatically imports the pass-
word for the blocks. This saves you time
• Optimum block protection as the users do
not know the password themselves
