● DNP3 communication
The SIMATIC devices named above can use DNP3 communication:
–
Via any two WAN networks with DNP3 subscribers
– via two IP-based networks (WAN or LAN) with DNP3 subscribers
The four transmission paths can all be different and operated independently. All
interfaces can be used for the establishment of redundant transmission paths.
● When installed as a CP in an S7-300, the following communication is also possible:
–
With the CPU
– Via the MPI interface of a CPU 312 / 313 / 314 / 315-2 DP / 315F-2 DP with other
CPUs and control center PCs connected to the MPI bus
● The TD7 software is integrated on the TIM (TD7onTIM). It can be used when the TIM is
installed as a CP in an S7-300.
● Message memory: 200 000 data points
● Modules can be replaced without a PG:
–
In standalone mode using the optional C-PLUG
– When installed as a CP in an S7-300 over the MMC of the CPU
● Optional: Battery for backup of the stored data messages and the hardware clock
Design of the TIM 4R-IE DNP3
The TIM 4R-IE DNP3 has all the advantages of the SIMATIC S7-300 system design:
● Compact design; double standard width of the SM modules of the SIMATIC S7-300
● Two 9-pin D-sub male connector with a combined RS-232/RS-485 interface for
connecting a modem
● Two RJ-45 jacks for connection to Ethernet; industrial design with additional collar for
inserting the IE FC RJ-45 Plug 180
● 2-pin plug-in terminal block for connecting the external supply voltage of 24 V DC
● Front LEDs for display of Ethernet and WAN communication
● Simple mounting; the TIM is installed on an S7-300 rail. If the TIM is installed in an
S7-300 as a CP, it is connected to adjacent modules by means of the bus module
connectors. No slot rules apply.
● Can be operated in an expansion rack (ER) in conjunction with the IM 360/361. This
allows the TIM to be combined with a C7 control system, with the newer C7 control
systems it can also be combined using the supplied I/O expansion cable.
● Can be operated without a fan
● A backup battery and a memory module (C-PLUG) can be installed as options.
