Hello esantos; The FM 352-5AH11 is the latest model of the FM 352-5 boolean processor.module, and it is still available for purchase. So this is the module you should choose if working with a S7-300/400 CPU. Unfortunately, this module requires specially designed functions to control the high-speed boolean inputs and outputs that are not available in the TIA Portal, so you cannot use it as a Profibus_DP slave (as part of sa ET 200M). In the attachment that accompanies this post you will see the recommended alternatives proposed by Siemens for various functionalities using the FM 342-5 originally, from the Migration Guide from S7-300 to S7-1500. You must take the Note about requesting help from Customer Support very seriously if you intend to use TIA Portal instructions to parallel the functions of a FM 352-5. I would suggest you start by opening a Support Request (the link is at the top of this page) and explain your project as detailed as you can so you can receive the expected support form Siemens Techs. Migration Guide: SIMATIC S7-300/400 to SIMATIC S7-1500 https://support.industry.siemens.com/cs/us/en/view/109478811 One more option you could consider would be to operate the FM 352-5 in stand-alone mode, without external control from a CPU... this would require programming a MMC for the FM 352-5 with a S7-300 CPU and MMC with Simatic Manager. Check with Customer Support if this is feasable in your project. Stand-alone operation with the FM 352-5 module is possible only after you have completed your program development within the STEP 7 environment and copied a valid program and hardware configuration to the SIMATIC Micro Memory Card using the memory card programmer built into a Siemens PG or an EPROM programming device connected to a PC. If a programmed SIMATIC Micro Memory Card is inserted in the FM 352-5 module, the module can become a stand-alone CPU, as long as stand-alone operation is enabled in the configuration software and no I/O backplane bus is detected SIMATIC S7-300 FM 352-5 high-speed Boolean processor https://support.industry.siemens.com/cs/us/en/view/9240171 Hope this helps, Daniel Chartier. |

Hello Ed San; Connecting a S7-315-2PN/DP to a S7-1500 over Profinet can be as easy as using the i-device functionality (equivalent to a Profibus master-slave configuration). See the following Application Example for some hints: Configuration and Application of the PROFINET I-Device Function https://support.industry.siemens.com/cs/us/en/view/109478798 You can also use the Profinet connection between the 2 CPUs to implement other exchange functions, such as PUT/GET, AGSEND/AGRCV.... Hope this helps, Daniel Chartier |
