Hello Lucky123, The 410 CPU has been exclusively released for PCS7 to fully replace all V6 CPUs (i.e. 412-5, 414-5, 416-5 & 417-5 CPUs) in the near future.
As explained above by Ibrahim, the system expansion card is mandatory for 410 CPU. The system expansion card determines the number of POs to be handled by CPU.
The system expansion card is not required and can't be plugged in all V6.X CPUs (e.g. 417-5).
You can read about advantages in Process automation with the SIMATIC PCS 7 CPU 410-5H controller. In my opinion the best of all is the type change in RUN. This means you can change block interface and update libraries without stopping the CPU (This used to be a dream).
Are you sure that a 410 CPU with system expansion card of 2K+ POs is still cheaper than a 417-5 CPU?! If it's cheaper, it could be a strategy to force upcoming PCS7 installations to use the 410CPU and to reduce orders for V6.X CPUs. Best regards, H-H |

SO I think I found out this here that we can no longer use the old/STL way of loading the application, as it will be rejected by the CPU. https://support.industry.siemens.com/cs/document/75407031/simatic-pcs-7-cpu-410-5h-process-automation-released-for-delivery?dti=0&lc=en-DE 2Compatibility The CPU 410-5H Process Automation is based on innovated hardware with operating system V8.0. The operating system V8.0 can only run on this innovated hardware. The hardware of the S7-400-CPUs V6.0 cannot be upgraded. For the configuration of the CPU 410-5H Process Automation you require the engineering software SIMATIC PCS 7 V8.0+SP1 and the Hardware Upgrade Package HUP CPU410-5H (see Download entry ID68627630). Loading of application software blocks is only possible with the SIMATIC PCS 7 engineering software. Attempts to load via the SIMATIC Manager or a STEP 7 editor (e.g. STL editor) will be rejected by the CPU. |
