CP143 TCP/IP, Communication Processor TCP/IP and H1
 
The communication processor SSN-BG89A is used for data exchange to destination or source system via the TCP/IP protocol stack, functioning both as client and server.

Performance features
Fast and transparent process connection to PC, workstation, mainframe and PLC systems via manufacturer independent standard protocols TCP and UDP
Reduction of bus-load up to 20% employing simplified acknowledgement procedure
Increase of data throughput within a single job and cycle (4096 words)
Elimination of costly bus connections in source and destination systems
Considerable cost savings due to direct connection of standard twisted pair via RJ45
Extreme flexibility due to selectable transmission medium (auto detect)
Easy handling and assembly via "plug and play" connection technique
Maximum plant availability ensured by process-independent diagnosis
Increase of plant power due to high data throughput (100 telegrams/sec)
Shorter configuration times using VIPA FB's
Easy maintenance provided by status indication LED
Fast plant modification via user friendly configuration tools WinNCS (No EPROM required)
User friendly remote maintenance via network dial in
Space reduction due to slim design
Cost saving due to operation without a ventilator (115U)
Extreme operation safety in networks with mixed protocols, by allowing multiprotocol handling
Extreme flexibility provided by mixed operation with H1 telegrams (multiprotocol)
 
Fields of application
The communication processor SSN is used for:
TCP/IP and UDP bus connection via AUI, BNC or RJ45
Sinec® from Siemens H1 bus connection via AUI, BNC or RJ45 within the Siemens Simatic® S5 PLC types 115U, 135U and 155U, on 48-pin, 3-row spring contact strips (grey connector DIN 41612 type F)
 
Configuration
AUI for thick Ethernet
BNC for thin Ethernet
RJ45 for twisted pair
Power supply 12V transceiver
Slot for memory module
Indicator for operating state
COM1=20mA, 15-pin
Buffered CMOS-RAM for 64 half or full duplex connections
Data transfer up to 100 telegrams/sec
TCP: send, receive, fetch (active/passive), write (active/passive)
H1: send, receive, fetch (active/passive), write (active/passive)
H1: multicast, broadcast (512 byte)
H1: PU functionality (active/passive)
SNMP
Remote configuration
Microprocessor for protocol handling
Address and parameter adjustment via software (WinNCS)
Data exchange between CPU and module via approved standard FB's
 
Special features
Multiprotocol operation H1 and TCP/IP
Increased data throughput using data grams up to 512 byte
EPROM connection parameter of the CP143TF or CP535 from Siemens may be imported directly. Thus, a simple and low priced replacement of existing components is secured by the modules of the CP143plus series
Direct connection of the transmission media: Thin Ethernet and Twisted Pair
Direct driver support for:
 
User friendly programming of Flash modules via LAN and module
