SIMATIC NET 

Communications Processors for PGs/PCs 

Product brief November 2000 

PCs and programming devices are 

taking on increasing significance 

alongside programmable controllers 

when it comes to the implementation of 

flexible production systems. 

Their flexible programmability enables 

rapid adaptation of the production 

system to the automation function 

required. 

Their high-performance communications 

structures enable automation 

projects to be implemented economically 

and with an appropriate degree of 

flexibility for today’s market. 

SIMATIC ® NET is a crucial component. 

If offers components and networks to 

enable perfect industrial communications. 

For the connection of programming 

devices and PCs to the Industrial 

Ethernet networks (in accordance with 

IEEE 802.3/802.3u) and to PROFIBUS 

(in accordance with IEC 61158/ 

EN 50170), SIMATIC NET has an extensive 

range of communications processors 

(CPs) with the following benefits: 

· They can be used for all applications 

in the field and in process automation 

for the following operating systems: 

Windows 98, Windows NT, Windows 

2000 Pro and Windows Me for 

SOFTNET or for UNIX. 

· They are available in PCI, PCMCIA or 

ISA formats. 

· They were developed specifically for 

industrial applications. 

· They enable high computer performance 

in the PC and take considerable 

load off the host CPU.

The SIMATIC NET ® networks enable 

consistent communication from the 

control level all the way down to the 

field level. They guarantee both openness 

to the office networks with TCP/IP 

and integration of the actuator/sensor 

level into the consistent communications 

environment with the AS-Interface. 

Automation can now be implemented 

complete on a fully integrated, consistent 

hardware and software platform. 

This means that you, as the user, are 

entirely flexible, as you can easily integrate 

products from other manufacturers 

into the standard open networks 

using standardized software interfaces. 

These networks are especially important, 

as they represent the backbone of 

the entire automation solution. The system 

uses widely accepted industrial 

standards, so it is essentially open on 

all sides. 

SIMATIC NET is the name given to 

a whole range of networks. 

The individual products fulfil a wide 

range of performance and application 

requirements: they can exchange data 

across various levels, between different 

sections of the plant or between 

different automation stations. They also 

have uniform system interfaces and are 

excellently adapted to suit one another. 

ITlution takes on a particularly important 

role within the range: ITlution 

stands for the SIMATIC NET industrial 

communication products which use 

conventional IT technology (Web, 

e-mail). These are based on networks 

such as Industrial Ethernet, ISDN and 

GSM. 

The networks at a glance: 

Industrial Ethernet 

(IEEE 802.3/802.3u) – 

the international standard for division 

and cell networking. 

PROFIBUS (IEC 61158/EN 50170) – 

the international standard for the field 

level and cell networks for a small 

number of stations. 

AS-Interface (EN 50 295) – 

for communications with sensors and 

actuators. 

EIB (CEN TC 247) – 

the global standard in building installation 

bus systems and the basis for 

buildings services automation. 

The fact that networks with thousands 

of network stations have been implemented 

in all the major sectors of industry 

goes to show just how successful 

SIMATIC NET really is. Some of the 

reasons for its success are as follows: 

SIMATIC NET has been based on consistent 

standards from the very outset. 

Siemens was a member of the standardization 

committees working on international 

standards for industrial communications 

from the very beginning.

The PC is taking on an increasingly 

important role in industrial communication. 

In combination with real-time 

applications, such as those based on 

Windows NT, it represents an ideal 

basis for visualization systems 

(e.g. WinCC ® ). 

Using SoftControl software, the PC can 

now tackle communications functions 

which were previously the exclusive 

domain of programmable controllers. 

The SIMATIC NET PC communications 

processors (CP) have the following 

benefits: 

· CPs for all formats: 

PCI, PCMCIA or ISA formats. 

· Can be used flexibly depending on 

the resources required in the PC: 

CPs with or without their own microprocessor 

· Simple to incorporate into the system 

environment and office applications 

by means of open, standardized interfaces, 

such as that with the OPC 

server. 

PROFIBUS is the worldwide market 

leader in industrial communication and 

offers significant benefits when it 

comes to field communication: 

· PROFIBUS is a high-performance, 

open and robust bus system which 

guarantees smooth communication. 

· The system is completely standardized 

in IEC 61158/EN 50170, which 

means there are no problems in connecting 

any standard components 

produced by different manufacturers. 

· Configuration, start-up and troubleshooting 

can be done from anywhere. 

This means that the freely programmable 

communications relationships 

are highly flexible, simple to implement 

in practice and easy to change. 

With a market share in excess of 80 %, 

Ethernet is currently the number one in 

the world-wide LAN market. Ethernet 

has important characteristics which 

could be extremely beneficial for your 

application: 

· Industrial Ethernet enables the implementation 

of open networks. This 

network has practically unlimited 

communications performance, as 

scaleable performance is available 

where required using switching technology. 

· Industrial Ethernet from SIMATIC 

NET, which has been implemented 

for years at 10 Mbit/s in accordance 

with IEEE 802.3, is now available with 

100 Mbit/s Fast Ethernet technology 

in accordance with IEEE 802.3u. 

· Start-up and trouble-shooting of the 

system can be undertaken from anywhere. 

· High availability thanks to redundant 

network topologies.

Outstanding features 

of SoftControl (CP 5613/CP 5614) 

PLC quality data consistency 

As DP masters, CP 5613 ® /5614 ® and 

CP 5613 FO/CP 5614 FO provide rapid, 

consistent data transfer to and from the 

distributed I/O. The data is always consistent, 

which means the user receives 

the data in PLC quality in one and the 

same DP cycle. This avoids process 

values accidentally being sourced from 

different DP cycles. 

Event / filter mechanism 

The new event and filter mechanism 

used in the CP 5613/5614 and their 

optic fiber versions means that the PC 

application is automatically notified by 

the CP of any changes to the process 

data; queries are no longer required. 

This takes considerable pressure off 

the CPU on the PC, which is especially 

important for applications which 

require huge CPU capacity (e.g. HMI or 

PC-based PLC applications). 

The event and filter mechanism can be 

activated on changes to the input or 

output data of a DP slave or on 

changes to the diagnostics data. 

Fast Logic 

Rapid links between slave inputs and 

outputs, which means devices can be 

switched off more quickly.

Outstanding features 

of Industrial Ethernet 

Time synchronization 

In Industrial Ethernet networks, it is 

possible to control the time across the 

whole plant. This makes it possible to 

allocate an exact time to events across 

the whole plant. 

Fault-tolerant communication 

The software package S7-RED- 

CONNECT enables PCs to be connected 

to the fault tolerant SIMATIC S7 

H system. If part of the system fails or a 

cable breaks, the system automatically 

switches to a reserve system or reserve 

network (double bus, redundant ring), 

thus maintaining communications at all 

times. 

Constant data throughput 

The protocol processing on the communications 

processors enables a constant 

throughput of data. They maintain 

a stable high level at the same time as 

guaranteeing rapid reaction times and 

ruling out fluctuating communications 

performance. The CPs relieve the PC of 

communications functions and use 

only a few resources in the PC.

Protocol 

The TCP protocol is a connection-oriented application 

(end to end byte stream protocol). The maximum size of a TCP 

segment is 64 Kbytes. TCP dynamically splits the application 

data to be sent and transmits it to the target computer. 

The TCP module in the target computer reassembles the 

packets received using a clear byte sequence number.
