Siemens SIMATIC S7-300 Module data Quick Start

1-2
Primer: S7-300 Programmable Controller, Quick Start
C79000-G7076-C500-01
For working with the Primer and executing the TLIGHT sample program,
you require the following hardware components:
Component Function Illustration
Rail ... functions as a mounting rack for
an S7-300.
Power supply module (PS) ... converts the supply voltage
(120/230 VAC) to 24 VDC operating
voltage for supplying the S7-300.
CPU (central processing unit)
Backup battery (optional)
... executes the user program;
supplies the S7-300 backplane bus
with 5 V; communicates via the MPI
(multipoint interface) with other
CPUs, or with a programming
device/PC.
Simulator module (6ES7 374...) with
8 digital inputs and 8 digital outputs
... gives you the option of testing the
user program on startup and during
operation by simulating sensor
signals via switches and displaying
signal states at the outputs via LEDs.
MPI cable ... connects a programming
device/PC with a CPU.
Programming device (PG) with an
MPI module and pre-installed
STEP 7 software
or
... configures, assigns parameters,
programs, and tests the S7-300
programmable controller.
Personal computer (PC) with an MPI
module or PC/MPI cable with
pre-installed STEP 7 software
... configures, assigns parameters,
programs, and tests the S7-300
programmable controller.
