Hi. The CPUs with firmware 3.x and 4.x will handle control for x4 motors. b) 6ES7 214-1AG40-0XB0 TIA Portal V13 SP0 Update 6 (or higher) c) 6ES7 214-1AG41-0XB0 TIA Portal V13 SP1 Update 0 (or higher) I strongly suggest you select (b) - it is what I would choose if it was my project. The firmware 4.x CPU allows for more option on where the pulse generated output is connected from and more choices to what signal is generated. I would not suggest the firmware 4.1 in (c). If you are running less than 4 motors at any one time, then it will be possible to use only x1 S7-1200 PLC. You could probably use a CPU1212C, but maybe consider using a CPU1214 instead. As for the possibility of multiplexing the outputs, there is a reference to look at.. SIMATIC STEP 7, S7-1200 Motion Control V13, From the Appendix of the above document is a description of how to multiplex the motion controller to drive several motors.. provided you do not need to drive those at the same time. Be sure to use the number A5E03790551-03 as a search within this web page for a downloadable version. The web version of the document, already paged to the relevant chapter: See if that resolves your issues.. and let use know. |
