Configuration/integration

Configuration
Two communication interfaces are available for integrating the device into system
environments/networks:
● Ethernet and
● RS 232
The communication interfaces transfer the data to IT, ERP and SCM systems on SIMATIC
PLCs or PCs (also used for configuration and diagnostics).
Simple process controls (e.g. a traffic signal) can be directly implemented using the
write/read device via three digital inputs and outputs with 24 V each.

Note
Maximum cable length for the RS232 interface
For secure and error-free data transmission, a data transfer rate of 115.2 kbit/s applies:
maximum cable length 10 m.
