Protocols for Open User Communication

Protocols for Open User Communication
The following protocols are available for open communication:
Table 6- 1
Transport protocol
TCP according to RFC 793
ISO-on-TCP according to RFC 1006 (Class 4)
ISO according to ISO/IEC 8073
UDP according to RFC 768
FDL
Table 6- 2
Application protocol
Modbus TCP
E-mail
FTP
TCP, ISO-on-TCP, ISO, UDP
Prior to data transfer, these protocols (except UDP) establish a transport connection to the
communications partner. Connection-oriented protocols are used when potential loss of data
needs to be avoided.
The following is possible with UDP:
• Unicast to one device or broadcast to all devices on PROFINET via the PROFINET interface
of the CPU or the Industrial Ethernet interface of the CP 1543-1
• Multicast to all recipients of a multicast group via the PROFINET interface of the CPU* or
the PROFINET / Industrial Ethernet interface of the CP 1543-1
* As of firmware version V2.0, the PROFINET interface of the CPU supports a maximum of
5 multicast groups
Maximum user data length: You can find the maximum user data lengths supported in the
technical specifications of the respective device manuals.
