The Extension Unit is used to install additional operator controls under a SIMATIC PRO
device of the type "Suitable for extension components" with 16:9 display.
The example in the figure below shows the Extension Unit 22" with eight operator controls

operator controls. The available slots are suitable for installation of operator controls.
The extension units are available in 4 different sizes:

For greater flexibility, three different connection options can be selected per size for the PLC
connection of the operator controls:
● Hardwired

● PROFIsafe
In addition, different operator controls such as emergency stop, selector switch, illuminated
pushbutton, keyswitch, indicator light or RFID reader are available.
