The Technology CPU has two interfaces:
• One MPI/DP interface, parameterizable as an MPI or DP interface (master or slave).
• one DP (DRIVE) interface for connection of drive systems
Figure 2-1
MPI/DP interface
The MPI/DP interface is used to connect additional SIMATIC components, such as PG, OP,
S7 controllers and distributed I/O. Extensive networks can be built up in DP interface mode.
DP(DRIVE) interface
The DP(DRIVE) interface is optimized for the connection of drives. It supports all the major
SIEMENS drive types:
• MICROMASTER 420/430/440 and COMBIMASTER 411
• SIMODRIVE 611 universal
• SIMODRIVE POSMO CD/SI/CA
• MASTERDRIVES MC/VC
• ET 200M with IM 153-2 (isochronous!) and SM 322 for additional cam output
• ET 200S with IM 151-1 high feature
• SINAMICS S120 (optional with TM15 or TM17 high feature for high-speed cams)
• Analog drive interface ADI4
