7.6 Interfaces for the Communication
CP-8000/CP-802x provides the following interfaces for engineering and maintenance:
Interface Type Engineering tool
X1 Ethernet TCP/IP SICAM TOOLBOX II or SICAM WEB
X2
Serial RS-232
*)
SICAM TOOLBOX II or SICAM WEB
X4 Ethernet TCP/IP SICAM TOOLBOX II or SICAM WEB
X6 Serial RS-232 mode SICAM WEB
X7 GPRS SICAM TOOLBOX II or SICAM WEB
*)
with additional voltage output (supply for external modem)
Via the duplicated Ethernet link (X1 and X4 in switch mode) it is for instance possible to con-
nect a local engineering PC and at the same time a GPRS modem for the communication to
the central station.
Furthermore, X1 and X4 can be operated via 2 independent IP addresses, you will find exam-
ples in appendix E, Use Cases.
Note
For CP-802x applies: X2/pin 3 (supply for external modem) must not be connected with the engineering
PC!
Note
If the serial interface X2 is not used for the engineering, this can be set by means of a special parameter
(Communication settings serial | Serial engineering interface = disabled).
The engineering via X2 is then no more possible, however, for the connection of other devices (see
6.11.1, Serial Communication) a simpler cable wiring can be created.
7.6.1 Required Accessories
Depending on the connection type, the following accessories are required:
• Direct cable
• D-sub/RJ45 adapter
• D-sub/USB adapter (if needed)
You will find the order information in appendix A.8, Cables and Plugs.
