CP 1616 in a PC as IO controller
The following schematic illustrates a typical application:
PC with CP 1616 as PROFINET IO controller at the IO controller level.
The IO-Base controller user program runs on the PC and accesses the functions of the IO-
Base user programming interface.
The data traffic is handled via a CP 1616 communications processor with several ET 200S
SIMATIC S7 PROFINET IO devices via Industrial Ethernet.
