8.1 Integration
Options of integration in existing or planned system environments/networks:
Ethernet
Wake on LAN and Remote Boot are supported.
The integrated Ethernet interfaces (10/100/1000 Mbps) can also be used for communication
and data exchange with programmable controllers such as SIMATIC S7.
This functionality requires the "SOFTNET S7" software package.
PROFIBUS/MPI
The optional electrically isolated PROFIBUS interface (12 Mbps) can be used to interconnect
distributed field devices or for coupling to SIMATIC S7.
The "SOFTNET for PROFIBUS" software package is required for coupling to S7 automation
systems.
PROFINET
CP 1616 onboard allows you to connect industrial PCs to Industrial Ethernet. Only one CP
1616 can be installed in a PG/PC. You can find more detailed information in the sections
2PROFINET (Page 256) and .
Device driver CP 16xx.sys
The device driver allows you to use the Windows network protocol for the optionally available
"CP 1616 onboard" Ethernet PROFINET controller on SIMATIC PCs. In Windows, the
PROFINET interface will act like a 100 Mbps Ethernet interface with a MAC address when
you use this driver. The three RJ-45 jacks are connected to each other via switch.
The drivers and documentation can be found in the user manual on the supplied
Documentation and Drivers CD.
PROFINET IO application
You can create, run or configure PROFINET IO applications with the Development Kit DK-
16xx PN IO. It must be installed in addition to the CP 16xx.sys device driver. You can obtain
information about this from your Siemens sales partner.
