Product Description for Siemens 6GK7342\u20115DA03\u20110XE0 (CP342\u20115 Communication Processor Module)<\/h1>\n<\/div>\n
\n

1. Product Overview<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n
\n
6GK7342\u20115DA03\u20110XE0 is a new\u2011original Siemens SIMATIC NET CP342\u20115 communication processor designed exclusively for the SIMATIC S7\u2011300 PLC system. It is installed on the S7\u2011300 back\u2011plane rack and acts as an independent PROFIBUS\u2011DP communication gateway. It connects S7\u2011300 CPU with ET200M, ET200SP distributed I\/O modules, frequency converters, HMI panels, S5\u2011series PLC and other PROFIBUS\u2011DP compliant field\u2011bus devices. It can work as either a PROFIBUS\u2011DP master station or DP slave station, offloading communication tasks from S7\u2011300 CPU so that the main processor can focus on logic control tasks only. It supports S7 basic communication, PG\/OP online programming and diagnosis and S5 compatible data exchange. This module is widely applied in automobile production lines, packaging equipment, metallurgical workshops, cement production plants and wastewater\u2011treatment systems adopting PROFIBUS\u2011DP field\u2011bus networks. It is configured and diagnosed by STEP7 engineering software and powered by S7\u2011300 back\u2011plane bus plus external DC24\u2011V power supplydocs.rs-on….<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

2. Main Functions<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n
\n
    \n
  1. PROFIBUS\u2011DP Master\u2011Station Function\n
    <\/div>\n

    When running as DP master, it can connect up to 124 DP slave devices. The total input and output address space reaches 2160 bytes respectively, with maximum 244\u2011byte input and output data for each single slave device to process mass field\u2011side signal transmissiondocs.rs-on….<\/li>\n

  2. PROFIBUS\u2011DP Slave\u2011Station Mode\n
    <\/div>\n

    It can operate as a DP slave to exchange data with upper\u2011level DP master controllers such as S7\u2011400 and S7\u20111500 CPUs for cross\u2011level PLC data interaction.<\/li>\n

  3. Multiple\u2011Type Communication Service\n
    <\/div>\n

    It supports S7 communication, open user communication via SEND\u2011RECEIVE function blocks with maximum 16 communication connections and 240\u2011byte user data per connection. It also realizes data exchange with old\u2011style S5 PLC systems for equipment upgrade projectsdocs.rs-on….<\/li>\n

  4. PG\u2011OP Online Diagnostics\n
    <\/div>\n

    Programming computers and HMI panels can access the whole PROFIBUS\u2011DP network through this CP module for program downloading, online monitoring, parameter setting and fault diagnosis without extra network adapters.<\/li>\n

  5. Built\u2011in Comprehensive Diagnostic Function\n
    <\/div>\n

    LED indicators including SF, BUSF, RUN and STOP display module status, bus failure and hardware faults. Detailed diagnostic information can be uploaded to S7\u2011300 CPU and read via STEP\u20117 software for fast troubleshooting.<\/li>\n

  6. Galvanic Isolation and Anti\u2011interference\n
    <\/div>\n

    RS\u2011485 electrical isolation is built\u2011in between internal back\u2011plane bus and PROFIBUS\u2011DP circuit to restrain electromagnetic interference generated by servo drives and high\u2011power motors.<\/li>\n

  7. Multi\u2011module Deployment\n
    <\/div>\n

    A single S7\u2011300 rack can install up to four CP342\u20115 modules to build multiple independent PROFIBUS\u2011DP networks for large\u2011scale distributed automation projectsdocs.rs-on….<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n
