Introduction
The CP 1616 is a PCI module for connecting PCs and SIMATIC PGs/PCs to
PROFINET IO.
Its essential characteristics are:
SOptimized for PROFINET IO
SWith Ethernet real-time ASIC ERTEC 400
S4 x RJ-45 ports
SIntegrated 4-port real -time switch
(If used with an external power supply, the integrated real-time switch can also
operate when the PC is turned off.)
SRelieves the PC due to event mechanisms
(automatic detection of data changes)
SAutomatic hardware detection is supported
SExtensive diagnostics options
The chapter describes the configuration of the CP 1616 for the following three use
cases:
SIO controller
SIO device
SIO controller and device at the same time
