Hardware configuration
Maximum mechanical configuration
As soon as one of the following rules applies, the maximum configuration has been reached:
Table 4- 1 Maximum mechanical configuration
Number of modules
• Horizontal mounting
– 0 to 60 °C ambient temperature:
a maximum of 32 I/O modules
USB load
– 0 to 55 °C ambient temperature:
a maximum of 64 I/O modules
USB load
• Vertical mounting
– 0 to 50 °C ambient temperature:
a maximum of 32 I/O modules
USB load
Backplane bus length Maximum 1 m mounting width (without CPU 1515SP PC (F), including
server module)
Electrical maximum configuration
The number of operable I/O modules of a potential group is limited by the
● Power consumption of the I/O modules
● Power consumption of the components supplied via these I/O modules
The maximum current-carrying capability of the terminals on the BaseUnit L+/ground is 10 A.
In case of maximum configuration with the CPU 1515SP PC (F), the USB load must also be
taken into consideration:
● Horizontal mounting
– Ambient temperature of 0 to 60 °C with maximum 32 I/O modules
3 x 100 mA
USB load
– Ambient temperature of 0 to 55 °C with maximum 64 I/O modules
2 x 500 mA +
1 x 100 mA USB load
● Vertical mounting
– Ambient temperature of 0 to 50 °C with maximum 32 I/O modules
The address space is predefined. However, you can adjust the address space in the user
program.
