C79000-G7076-C621-01
The C7 has two independent units that communicate with each other via an
internal MPI interface:
S C7 CPU with digital and analog inputs and outputs
S C7 OP
Where necessary, these units are dealt with separately in the manuals.
With a two-line display and 20 characters per line with characters 5 mm high
(see Figure 1-2).
The C7-621 AS-i has the following components:
S MPI interface
S AS-interface
S P bus connection (for the IM 621 module)
This model does not have digital inputs/outputs and analog inputs/outputs.

You can do the following with the C7-621 AS-i control system:
S Run user programs that were written in STL, LAD or FBD and
downloaded to the C7 CPU.
S Connect actuators and sensors via the AS-interface to the C7-621 AS-i.
S Download and use operator interface applications that you created with
the “ProTool” or “ProTool/Lite” configuration tool.
S Using these configurations, you can monitor and intervene in the process
you are controlling with the user program.
