1.1.
Positioning of the Modular S7 Controllers
SIMATIC S7
The programmable logic controllers can be divided into the micro PLC (S7-1200) and the
mid/upper (S7-1500) performance ranges.
The existing lower/mid performance range (S7-300) and the mid/upper performance range (S7400) will be covered in future by an S7-1500 system.

1-3
1.1.1.
Positioning of the S7-1500
At the start of the introduction of the new S7-1500 CPU system, modular CPUs are only available
up to the mid performance range.

Communication Modules (CP - Communication Processor, CM - Communication Module)

Point-to-point connection
PROFIBUS
PROFINET
CPs and CMs are both communication modules.
CPs have, as a rule, somewhat more functionality than CMs (e.g. own web server,
firewall, or the like).
Technology Modules (TM - Technology Module)
Counting
Position sensing

1-7
Power Supply
I/O modules in the central rack of the S7-1500 require a system power supply via the backplane
bus (communication connection to the CPU) and a load power supply (input or output circuits for
sensors/encoders and actuators).
PM - Power Module
Load Power Supply
supplies modules with 24VDC for input and output circuits as well as sensors/encoders and
actuators
If the CPU is supplied 24V via a load power supply (PM), it supplies the system power
supply of 12W for the first inserted I/O modules.
PS - Power System
System Power Supply
supplies S7-1500 modules in the central rack via the backplane bus
Each CPU offers a system power supply of 12W for the first inserted I/O modules.
Depending on the I/O modules used, further power segments have to be set up, as
required.
A system power supply (PS) can also supply the load circuit for 24VDC modules in
addition to the CPU.
Power Supply and Power Segments of the I/O Modules
It is necessary to set up power segments in the central rack for larger configurations or
configurations with greater I/O module power requirements (as a rule, when using CP, CM, TM).
A maximum of 3 power segments can be set up per rack (1xCPU segment plus 2 more).
If the configuration includes additional power segments, additional system power supply modules
(PS) are inserted to the right next to the CPU. The CPU continues to control all modules of the
rack. Only the system power supply of the I/O modules is subdivided here.
Example of a Small S7-1500 Configuration
Example of an S7-1500 Configuration with a 2nd Power Segment
Interface Modules for Expansion Rack

A central multi-tier assembly is not planned. An expansion can be realized using the distributed
ET200MP I/O system.
1-8

1.2.1.1.
SIMATIC S7-1500: Installation and Mounting Positions
Installation
The modules are mounted on an S7-1500 profile rail.
Bus Connector
If the installation is made on the profile rail, the modules are then connected with the Uconnector.
The U-connector establishes the mechanical and electrical connection between the modules and
is included with every I/O module.
Mounting Positions
A horizontal or vertical mounting is possible.
Caution!
With a vertical mounting, the maximum allowed ambient temperature is 20 C lower
(ambient temperature 0 to 40 C).
Integrated Mounting Rail
For the S7-1500 CPU, there is a profile rail on which components can also be mounted according
to EN 60715. With that, even terminals, miniature circuit breakers, small contactors or similar
components can be mounted in addition to the S7-1500.

1-9
1.2.1.2.
SIMATIC S7-1500: Module Assembly
The module assembly is similar to that of the S7-300.

Click-In Assembly
Optionally, you can order an insert-able square profile that enables a click-in assembly of
modules instead of screws.
1.2.1.3.
SIMATIC S7-1500: Connection Technology/Front Connector
By swinging up the release latch, you can pull the front connector and remove it from the module.
1-10

Properties of the Front Connector

In each case 40
terminals
Clamping techniques:
Screw-type terminal
SIMATIC TOP connect
System wiring for the connection of sensors/encoders and actuators
S7-1500 front connector wired with 20 or 40 single conductors (prefabricated)
Prewiring Position
The front connector latches up in the front cover. In this position, the front connector still juts out
of the module, but the front connector and the module are not yet electrically connected.
Jumper Links
The jumper links can be inserted in the front connector in four places for easier set up of load
groups. That is, looping the supply voltage to several potential groups.
Only one connection from left to right exists!
Automatic Coding of the I/O Modules
This enables a faster and safer exchange of the front connector.
Shield Connection (Analog Signals, Signals to Technology Modules)

The cable clamp is a pluggable mounting support for modules with EMC-critical signals (e.g.
analog modules, TMs) and enables the low impedance connection of cable shielding and
minimum installation times.
Cable clamp and shielding terminal are included with analog modules and TMs.

1-11
Two Front Door Latching Positions

At the bottom of the front cover there are 2 different latching positions for different space
requirements of the conductor bundle.
Cable storage space that grows with the need (AWG cabling)
American Wire Gauge (AWG) is an American standard measure for copper wires which defines
the wire strength and the allowed damping, whereby a lower AWG value represents a thicker
wire.
1.2.2.

1.3.
SIMATIC S7-1200/1500: Technology Functions
High-speed Counters
Up to 6 high-speed counters, 3 at 100 kHz and 3 at 30 kHz are available for precise monitoring of
incremental encoders, frequency counting or counting of highly frequent process events.
Motion
To control rotary speed, position or pulse duty factor, a total of 2 PWM outputs (pulse width
modulation) are available. Application examples are, for example, controlling the speed of a
motor, position of a valve, or the mark-to-space ratio for a heating element. For rotary speed and
position controls, a total of 2 PTO outputs at 100 kHz (pulse train output) are available.
It supplies a pulse train for controlling speed and position of stepper or servo motors.
PID
For simple closed-loop control tasks, up to 16 PID control circuits with automatic PID adjustment
and tuning control panel are available.

1-15
1.4.
SIMATIC S7-1200/1500: Memory Card(s) Overview
Memory Card Binding Copy Protection

The executability of the program can be bound to the serial number of the card.
Load Memory
S7-1500
This has no integrated load memory and therefore it is imperative that a card is inserted.

1.5.2.
Overview of Available Signal Modules (Distributed)
The ET200SP and ET200MP product range will be expanded in the next years such that these
two product lines completely cover the applications of the ET200S and ET200M.
The ET200pro (interface modules for connection to PROFINET or PROFIBUS) in the degree of
protection IP65/67for use directly at the machine will continue to be offered.
1-21
1.5.3.
ET 200SP: Size-optimized Modular Distributed I/O System
For STEP7 V11 there is an HSP and for STEP7 V5.5 or third-party systems there is a GSDML
file.
To expand the module spectrum, CMs (AS-i master, AS-i F-modules, IO-link master), a TM (1
POS input) and a motor starter are in the planning stage.

1-24

1.5.6.
ET 200MP: Configuration and Maximum Number of Modules
If a suitable 24VDC supply is available, it can supply the IM from the front even without a PS
module in the 1st. slot.
If only a few I/O modules or low-performance I/O modules are used on the IM155, they are
"supplied by the system" by the IM155 through the backplane bus.
Otherwise, power segments are also to be set up just like the configuration of a central S7-1500
rack.
PS module and front-side 24VDC supply to IM155:
System power supply of PS
+ System power supply of integrated PS of IM155
_
= Feed-in power of system power supply in Power Segment 1

Tips and Tricks
1.6.1.
Power Budgeting for System Power Supply of S7-1500 and ET200MP
If only a few I/O modules or low-performance I/O modules are used in the central rack of the CPU
or on the IM155, they are "supplied by the system" by the CPU or IM through the backplane bus.
It is necessary to set up power segments for larger configurations or configurations with greater
I/O module power requirements (as a rule, when using CP, CM, TM).
A maximum of 3 power segments can be set up per rack
central CPU rack: 1xCPU segment plus 2 more segments
ET200MP rack: 1x IM155 segment plus 2 more segments
If the configuration includes additional power segments, additional system power supply modules
(PS) are inserted to the right next to the CPU or IM155. The CPU or the IM155 continues to
control all modules of the rack. Only the system power supply of the I/O modules is subdivided
here.
Power Budget
The power requirement of each module is specified in the technical data. From it, the power
budget can be calculated and the need for further system power supplies can be determined.
Once the hardware is configured, a power budget of the device configuration can be taken from
the properties of the CPU or the ET200MP interface module (IM155).

1.9.
Firmware Update
Procuring the new firmware is always the first step.

The next steps depend on the selected update possibility.
1.9.1.
1-30
Firmware Update
Explorer
Offline using SIMATIC Memory Card with the Windows

When the CPU or the Display is updated, Step 7 is necessary in any case. However, this is
also recommended at the end of every module update.
Status of the Update in the Display (only S7-1500)
Only the S7-1500 has a Display.
Status of the Update with LEDs
If the middle LED (red, error) lights up, the update was not successfully completed or it could
not be carried out.
Necessary Firmware Update Files

Directory with FW files (FWUPDATE.S7S) and data ID file (S7_JOB.S7S)
Empty Card (Windows Explorer)
Do NOT delete
hidden files!!!
1.9.2.
Firmware Update: Offline using STEP7 by means of Card Creation in the

TIA Portal

1-31
Necessary Firmware Update File e.g.

FW file (MLFB_ausgabe.upd)
Card Contents
The SD card for the update does not necessarily have to be deleted first. During creation you are
prompted:
Yes
Card is deleted and update card is created
No
The update is only added to the card contents and the card type is set to "Update firmware".
This can only be done for updating the Display since the program is active and CPU + I/O
modules cannot be updated in this state.
For updating the CPU or the Display, an empty card is necessary in order to conclude
7
the update (see Step
).
For that reason, it is generally recommended to delete the "Program" card or to use a
separate card for updates.
1.9.3.
1-32
Firmware Update: Online using STEP 7 in the TIA Portal

Before running the update, the appropriate *.upd must be selected.
Before running an update of I/O modules, the CPU should be switched to STOP, if the
active user program uses this module.
Wait until update is completed...
CPU Update
Advantage: The current "Program" card is not changed.
Attention !
The retentiveness is however deleted, that is, the program is then reset to the loading
state.
1.9.4.
Firmware Update
Important Facts
During an update, the supply voltage must not fail or be removed.

Distributed I/O without memory card is exclusively update-able online using STEP7.
After updating the CPU or the Display (only S7-1500), the CPU should be switched off, an empty
memory card inserted in the CPU and the CPU switched back on.
It is possible to do a simultaneous update of several modules offline using the memory card.
Respective firmware update files are stored in the folder for Firmware update
The Sequence is Relevant if Several Module Types are Updated
1. Update of the Display firmware (only S7-1500)
2. Update of the central I/O modules
3. Update of the distributed I/O modules
4. Update of the Boot loader of the CPU
5. Update of the CPU
