- File System for Permanent Storage of Web and Configuration Files
- Configuration of Up to 32 FTP Client Operations
The Siemens CP 243-1 Communications Processor is intended for operation in an
S7-200 automation system. It allows the connection of an
S7-200 system to Industrial Ethernet (IE). The use of the CP 243-1 means that
communication via Ethernet is also possible at the lower performance end of the S7 product
family.
As a result, an S7-200 can be configured, programmed and diagnosed even at a distance
using STEP 7 Micro/WIN 32 via Ethernet. Using a CP 243-1 also means that an S7-200 can
communicate with another S7-200, an S7-300 or S7-400 controller via Ethernet.
Communication with an OPC server is also possible.
The IT functions of the CP 243-1 form the basis for monitoring and, if necessary, also
manipulating automation systems with a Web browser from a networked PC. In addition,
diagnostics messages can also be e-mailed from a system. Using the IT functions, it is very
easy to exchange entire files with other computer and controller systems.
The 6GK7243-1GX00-0XE0 Siemens Communications Processor may still be available for purchase and support from Artisan Technology Group beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).
