Two CPU Segments
Two local P-bus segments allocate eight and ten slots to separate CPUs.
Shared Communication Bus
The C bus extends across both segments for backplane communication.
Central Installation
The rack provides the mechanical and electrical base for an S7-400 central controller.
Product Overview
6ES7401-2TA01-0AA0 is the SIMATIC S7-400 CR2 rack for a segmented central station. Its 18 single-width slots are divided into two local I/O bus segments of eight and ten slots, allowing two CPUs to operate with their own I/O.
A continuous communication bus crosses both segments, while the peripheral bus is separated. The rack accommodates S7-400 modules except receive interface modules and requires one power supply module for the central assembly.
Key Functions
Segmented Local I/O
Separates the P bus into eight-slot and ten-slot sections so each CPU addresses its own local I/O.
Cross-Segment Communication
Keeps the communication bus continuous across the rack for C-bus nodes in either segment.
Central Module Mounting
Holds the S7-400 power supply, CPUs and applicable modules on a sheet-steel mounting rail.
