The characteristics of Siemens PLC S7-1200

(1) Hardware components of S7-1200

Controller with integrated PROFINET interface for communication between programming devices, HMI or other SIMATIC controllers

Signal board can be inserted directly into the controller

Signal module for extending the controller input and output channels

Communication module, used to extend the controller communication interface

Accessories such as power supply, switch module, panel or SIMATIC memory card

(2) Characteristics of S7-1200

Integrated Profinet interface

Integrated power supply in the form of wide-width AC or DC power supply (85-264 V AC or 24 V DC)

Integrated digital volume output 24V DC or relay

Integrated 24V DC digital input

Integrated analog input 0-10V

Pulse train output (PTO) with frequency up to 100 kHz

Pulse width modulation (PWM) output with frequencies up to 100 kHz

High speed counter (HSC) with frequencies up to 100 kHz

Modularity and tailoring are achieved by connecting additional communication modules such as RS 485 or RS232

Modularity and clipability are achieved by extending analog or digital signals directly onto the CPU through the signal board (while maintaining the original CPU space).

Modularity and clipability (except CPU 1211C) through a large number of analog and digital input and output signals of the signal module

Optional memory (SIMATIC memory card)

PLCopen motion control for simple motion control

PID controller with self-tuning function

Integrated real-time clock

Password protection

Time break

Hardware interrupt

Library function

Online/offline diagnosis

Terminals on all modules are removable
