CP 342-5/342-5 FO Communications Processor Application The CP 342-5/342-5 FO communications processor is intended for operation in a programmable controller of the SIMATIC S7-300 series. It allows the S7-300 to be connected to a PROFIBUS fieldbus system. Design CP 342-5 CP 342-5 FO (9-pin sub-D female (Duplex sockets for optical...
Characteristics Services The current version of the CP 342-5/342-5 FO supports the following communication services: S PROFIBUS-DP – as DP master class 1 and class 2 (PROFIBUS-DP complying with EN 50170, DP Master) – as DP slave (PROFIBUS DP complying with EN 50170, DP Slave) Note Note however, that the CP 342-5/342-5 FO can only be operated as DP master or DP slave but not both.

Module Replacement without PG The CP supports the option of storing the CP configuration data on the CPU. If you use this option, you can replace a module without having to download the configuration data from the programming device. The configuration data are then stored in the load memory of the CPU. The non-volatile storage of the configuration data on the CPU is guaranteed by battery backup or by using an EPROM module card.
Performance 1.2.1 Transmission Rates The transmission rate is set with the SIMATIC STEP 7 configuration software. The following values are permitted: Table 1-1 Transmission rate CP 342-5 CP 342-5 FO 9.6 Kbps 19.2 Kbps 45.45 Kbps 93.75 Kbps 187.5 Kbps 500 Kbps 1.5 Mbps 3 Mbps...

Note The reaction times listed above are only intended as a guideline and only apply when no other services (for example PG functions) are processed on the CP. 1.2.4 Data for S5-Compatible Communication (SEND/RECEIVE inter- face) on FDL Connections: The following data are important when operating FDL connections (Specified, Free Layer 2 (SDA and SDN), Broadcast, Multicast): Table 1-6 Feature...
1.2.5 Basic Data for S7 Communication The following characteristic data are important for operating S7 connections: Table 1-8 Feature Explanation / Values Number of S7 connections that can be operated 16 maximum 1) The actual number of S7 connections that can be operated depends on the CPU type you are using. There are further restrictions if you operate in mixed mode.

Number of Connections in Mixed Mode If you use a connection configuration involving the maximum number of FDL connections (16) and the use of DP at the same time, the maximum number of S7 connections reduces from 16 to 12. Manual CP 342–5 / CP 342–5 FO C79000–G8976–C146/01...
Displays and Mode Selector LED Display of the CP Mode The four LEDs on the front panel provide information about the mode of the CP coded as shown below: Table 1-10 SF (red) BUSF (red) STOP CP Mode (green) (yellow) Starting up (STOP–>RUN) Running (RUN) Stopping (RUN–>STOP)
Page 15
Controlling the Operating Mode There are different ways in which you can control the operating mode of the CP 342-5/342-5 FO, as follows: S Using the mode selector S Using the NCM S7 for PROFIBUS configuration software S SIMATIC Manager in STEP 7 To be able to control the CP mode from STEP 7 / NCM S7 for PROFIBUS, the mode selector must be set to RUN.
