PROFINET IO application
You can create, run or configure PROFINET IO applications with the "Development Kit DK-
16xx PN IO". It must be installed in addition to the device driver CP 16xx.sys. You can
download this kit and the documentation free of charge at the following Internet address:

16_developkit.htm)
SIMATIC NET
You can create, run and configure the SIMATIC installation with this software package.
Information on this can be found on the SIMATIC NET Manual Collection CD. The software
package and the documentation are not included in the package.

6.2 Device in SIMATIC S7 network
6.2.1 MPI/PROFIBUS-DP network
You can connect the device to a SIMATIC S7 automation system or a PROFIBUS DP
network via the MPI/DP interface. You can connect up to 32 PC, PG, or AS devices to one
network segment. The use of repeaters allows you to interconnect several
MPI/PROFIBUS DP network segments. The complete MPI/PROFIBUS DP network consists
of a maximum of 127 stations.
The device is physically connected to the MPI/PROFIBUS DP network via an electrically
isolated RS485 interface on the PC motherboard. The potential is isolated within the safety
low voltage circuit (SELV).
The transmission rate is limited to 187.5 Kbps with the 5-meter MPI cable for connecting to
the SIMATIC S7-CPU. To achieve baud rates over 1.5 Mbps, you require a 12 Mbps
PROFIBUS cable with the order number 6ES7901-4BD00-0XA0. In the PROFIBUS DP MPI
network, you can achieve data transmission rates of 9.6 Kbps to 12 Mbps.
