Use the product documentation to verify that the communication modules are suitable for the
terminal bus when implementing the respective concept.
Connecting to the system bus
You can use the following network adapters to connect to the system bus:
● Standard communication modules:
– If you connect up to 8 communication partners per PC station (automation systems or
servers).
– If fault-tolerant automation systems are used with CPUs (firmware version as of V6.0).
● Communication modules with onboard processors (CP 16xx) are required in the following
cases:
– If you connect between 9 and a maximum of 64 communication partners per PC station
(automation systems or servers).
– If fault-tolerant automation systems are used with CPUs (firmware version earlier than
V6.0).
– If you require connections between a PC station with 2 network adapters to fault-tolerant
automation systems.
Licensing of the network adapter
