Features
You c an operate up to two AS--Interface modules on the S7-200 at the same time, significantly
increasing the number of available digital and analog inputs/outputs (maximum 124 digital
input/124 digital output on AS--Interface per CP). Setup times are reduced because of the ability to
configure at the touch of a button. LEDs reduce downtime in the event of an error by displaying
status of the CP and of all connected slaves, and by monitoring AS--Interface main voltage.
The AS--Interface Module has the following features:
- Supports analog modules
- Supports all master functions and allows connections for up to 62 AS--Interface slaves
- LEDs in the front plate display operating status and availability of connected slaves.
- LEDs in the front plate display errors (including AS--Interface voltage error, configuration
error)
- Two terminals allow direct connection of the AS--Interface cable.
- Two buttons display the status information of the slaves, switch operating mode, and adopt
the existing configuration as the SET configuration.
You can use the STEP 7--Micro/WIN AS-i Wizard to configure the (CP 243--2) AS --Interface
module. The AS--Interface Wizard helps you use the data from an AS-Interface network in your
configuration. To start the AS--i Wizard, select the Tools > AS--i Wizard menu command.
