we shall introduce the major components for your S7-300 configuration.
S7-300 Configuration
An S7-300 consists of the following modules:
•
Power supply (PS)
•
CPU
•
Signal modules (SM)
•
Function modules (FM)
•
Communication processors (CP)
Multiple S7-300 CPUs can communicate with each other and with SIMATIC S7
PLCs across PROFIBUS cable.
You require a programming device (PG) to program the S7-300 PLC. Interconnect
the PG and the CPU with a PG cable.
The figure below shows you a possible configuration, consisting of two S7-300
