Uses and properties of the TIM
1.2 TIM 3V-IE DNP3 - Overview
● DNP3 communication
With a TIM 3V-IE DNP3, an S7-300 CPU or a C7 control system can handle DNP3
communication:
– Over an IP-based network (WAN or LAN) with DNP3 subscribers
– Via a classic WAN with DNP3 subscribers
● The TD7 software is integrated on the TIM (TD7onTIM)
● Message memory: 64 000 data points
● Module replacement without PG possible with the MMC of the CPU
● Can be combined with other TIMs in the rack: no
● Communication via MPI of the S7-300 CPU: no
Design of the TIM 3V-IE DNP3
The TIM 3V-IE DNP3 has all the advantages of the SIMATIC S7-300 system design:
● Compact design; single standard width of the SM modules of the SIMATIC S7-300
● 9-pin D-sub male connector with an RS-232 interface for connecting a modem
● RJ-45 jack for connection to Ethernet; industrial design with additional collar for inserting
the IE FC RJ-45 Plug 180
● 2-pin plug-in terminal block for connecting the external supply voltage of 24 V DC
● Front LEDs for display of Ethernet and WAN communication
● Easy to mount; the TIM is mounted on the S7-300 rail and connected to adjacent
modules by means of the bus module connectors. No slot rules apply.
● Can be operated in an expansion rack (ER) in conjunction with the IM 360/361. This
allows the TIM to be combined with a C7 control system, with the newer C7 control
systems it can also be combined using the supplied I/O expansion cable.
● Can be operated without a fan
● The device is operated without an additional back-up battery or memory module.
