Product Overview

The CPU 318-2 DP is a SIMATIC S7-300 central processing unit with a configurable MPI/DP interface and a second dedicated PROFIBUS DP interface for controller, programming-device and distributed-I/O communication.

The controller combines a configurable MPI/DP connection with a second PROFIBUS DP interface, both supporting transmission rates up to 12 Mbit/s. The PROFIBUS DP configuration provides an 8,192-byte address area for inputs and an equal 8,192-byte area for outputs. The CPU supports removable RAM and FEPROM memory cards in the capacities documented for this processor generation.

Ordering focus: confirm the complete article number, installed memory card, STEP 7 project, MPI/DP role and PROFIBUS address plan.
