S7-400, M7-400 Programmable Controllers Module Specifications

A5E00069467-07

A physical connection between the bus nodes and the bus cable.

A bus segment is a self-contained section of a serial bus system. Bus segments
are interconnected by means of 

³

 repeaters.

An S7-400 consists of a central controller (CC) that can be allocated expansion
units (EU), as required. The central controller is the mounting rack that contains
the 

³ 

CPU.

CPU

³

 Restart of the programmable controller and its user program, after all the

dynamic data (variables of the input/output image, internal registers, timers,
counters, etc. and the corresponding program sections) have been reset to a
specified value.
A cold restart can be automatically triggered, such as after a power failure or loss
of information in dynamic memory sections, etc., or manually by pressing the
reset key.

A voltage that is common to all inputs/outputs of a group and is measured
between this group and any reference point (usually to ground).

This is the load on the cyclic program scanning of a CPU caused by
communication operations (for example, via 

³ 

PROFIBUS DP).

To prevent communication operations overloading cyclic program scanning, you
can set the maximum permissible load that communication can place on the scan
cycle by parameter assignment in STEP 7.

Programmable module for communication tasks, such as networking,
point-to-point connection.
