CP 443-5 Extended for PROFIBUS / Manual Part B4
Release 6/2005
C79000-G8976-C162-06
5.7
Data Record Routing
A maximum of 11 connections can be established simultaneously to PA field
devices at any one time.
PDM can, however, use several connections to one PA field device (for more
information, refer to the manual “PDM - The Process Device Manager”).
5.8
Use in Fault-tolerant Systems
1)
With a CP 443-5 Extended, you have the following options in a fault-tolerant (H)
system:
S
Operating fault-tolerant S7 connections with communication services configured
on one partner
or
S
You can implement redundant and single peripheral structures (mixed mode is
also possible).
You will find more detailed information about the possible operating and structural
options in the “SIMATIC S7-400H Programmable Controller Manual, Fault-tolerant
Systems”.
If the CP 443-5 Extended is used in a fault-tolerant S7-400H system, the following
communications services can also be used on single (non-redundant) connections:
S
S7 connection (including PG functions and PG routing)
S
S5-compatible communication (SEND/RECEIVE interface) on FDL connections
S
Time-of-day distribution
Note
1)
Please note the CPU types in Table 2-1/2-2/2-3
