8.13 PLC EduTrainer Universal S7-1512C
The Siemens SIMATIC controller CPU S7-1512C-1PN is integrated in an EduTrainer® Universal.
Figure 18: PLC EduTrainer Universal with S7-1512C
The compact CPU S7-1512C-1PN has the following technical data:
• Main memory: 250 KB for programs and 1 MB for data
• Memory card 24 MB
• Interface: PROFINET IRT with 2-port switch
and the following composition of inputs and outputs:
• 32 digital inputs (24 V DC) / 32 digital outputs (24 V DC / 0.5 A)
• 5x analog inputs, 4x U/I, 1x R/RTD, 16-bit resolution / 2x analog outputs, 2x U/I, 16-bit resolution
The support system of the EduTrainer Universal, size 1 (W x H) 305 x 300 mm, can be placed on a table or in
an MPS PA station. The 19″ module with 2x SysLink connector with 8 digital inputs and 8 digital outputs
each and 1x D-Sub 15-pin connector with 4 analog inputs and 2 analog outputs establishes the signal
connections to the MPS PA station and the control panel. The emergency stop bridge allows the connection
of a safety circuit to switch off 8 digital outputs with the emergency stop board.
The S7-1512C controller is connected to the automation network with a network cable (6 m).
The sample project in combination with the TP700 Comfort control console enables the operation of the
MPS PA station (see chapter 10.4 Sequence).
