GET and PUT (Read and write from a remote CPU)
You can use the GET and PUT instructions to communicate with S7 CPUs through
PROFINET and PROFIBUS connections. This is only possible if the "Permit access with
PUT/GET communication" function is activated for the partner CPU in the "Protection"
property of the local CPU properties:
● Accessing data in a remote CPU: An S7-1200 CPU can only use absolute addresses in
the ADDR_x input field to address variables of remote CPUs (S7-200/300/400/1200).
● Accessing data in a standard DB: An S7-1200 CPU can only use absolute addresses in
the ADDR_x input field to address DB variables in a standard DB of a remote S7 CPU.
● Accessing data in an optimized DB: An S7-1200 CPU cannot access DB variables in an
optimized DB of a remote S7-1200 CPU.
● Accessing data in a local CPU: An S7-1200 CPU can use either absolute or symbolic
addresses as inputs to the RD_x or SD_x input fields of the GET or PUT instruction,
respectively.
Note
V4.0 CPU program GET/PUT operation is not automatically enabled
A V3.0 CPU program GET/PUT operation is automatically enabled in a V4.0 CPU.
However, a V4.0 CPU program GET/PUT operation in a V4.0 CPU is not automatically
enabled. You mu
st go to the CPU "Device configuration", inspector window "Properties"tab,
"Protection" property to enable
GET/PUT access (Page 210).
