Hello Marc P on top of what Howard said, Siemens also madea couple of CP1430 TF Ethernet cards and theirpart number and product links are below: 1.) 6GK1143-0TA02 CP 1430 TF
2.) 6GK1143-0TB01CP 1430 TF (EXTENDED VERSION) Number 1.) abovehad been widely used in the good old S5 days and is possibly easier to get your hands on than the TCPvariant that Howard suggested (which was developed in the "dying days" of S5). Apart from TF protocol, these "TF" cards do also support so called ISO protocol and can by that also "talk" to S7 PLC's. Note that you will also need the configurationsoftwarefor these which is called COM1430 TF (and if you go for the TCP card then you'll need COM1430 TCP) and all of thesecan onlybe used in 115, 135 or 155 S5. Note further that all the Ethernet CP's have been phased out and are "officially" only available on an exchange spare part basisuntil 2015. I hope this helps |
