SIMATIC Micro Memory Card required for operation of CPU.
ApplicationThe CPU 317-2 PN/DP is a CPU with a large program memory. It is used in installations which have distributed automation structures in addition to a centralized I/O. It can be used, for example, as a central controller in production lines or as a machine controller with stringent requirements on machining speed.
It has been optimized in terms of its quantity framework for using SIMATIC Engineering Tools, e.g.,:
- Programming with SCL
- Sequence control programming with S7-GRAPH
In addition, the CPU offers an ideal platform for simple technology tasks implemented in software, e.g.,:
- Easy Motion Control
- The solution of closed-loop control tasks with STEP 7 blocks or the runtime software Standard/Modular PID Control
Extended process diagnostics can be achieved by using SIMATIC S7-PDIAG.
The integrated combination possibilities of the CPU allow networked automation solutions to be implemented without the need for additional components.
