S7 Communication Capability on S7-317 CPU

SATYA SURAVIT Posts: 94 Rating: (0)	Hi Team, Hope you are doing great. I would like to know, what is the difference between usable for S7 communication and total number of instances. As per my knowledge 16 s7 communication can be used with maximum of 32 number of instances for S7-317 CPU. Can we say, no of communication means no of PLC is connected to S7-317. If 2 connection is used for 1 PLC, how much resources it will consume (out of 32) and what would be remaining connection ( out of 16) . Can resources/ connections can be handled with the help of CP-343 or is there any restriction on CPU -317 ? Thanks in Advances.
