Introducing The S7-200

The S7-200 Micro PLC is designed to control small automation applications. It has a compact CPU that combines processing, power, and I/O. The CPU executes programs to control processes and can be expanded with modules for more I/O points. Expansion modules add additional inputs or outputs to the CPU's local I/O.

Introduction to PLC(S7_200)

Introducing the S7-200 Micro PLC:


The S7-200 series is a line of micro-programmable logic controllers (Micro PLCs) that can
control a variety of automation applications. The compact design, expandability, low cost, and
powerful instruction set of the S7-200 Micro PLC make a perfect solution for controlling small
applications. In addition, the wide variety of CPU sizes and voltages provides you with the
flexibility you need to solve your automation problems.

Equipment Requirements:
In order to use a personal computer (PC), you must have one of the following:

1. A PC/PPI cable.
2. A communications processor (CP) and multipoint interface (MPI) cable.
3. A multipoint interface (MPI) card. A communications cable is provided with the MPI
card.

Major Components of the S7-200 Micro PLC:
 An S7-200 Micro PLC consists of an S7-200 CPU alone or with a variety of optional
expansion modules. S7-200 CPU The S7-200 CPU combines a central processing unit
(CPU), power supply, and discrete I/O points into a compact, stand-alone device.
 The S7-200 CPU combines a central processing unit (CPU), power supply, and
discrete I/O points into a compact, stand-alone device.
o The CPU executes the program and stores the data for controlling the automation task
or process.
o Additional I/O points can be added to the CPU with expansion modules up to the
physical size limits listed in Table 1-1.
o The power supply provides electrical power for the base unit and for any expansion
module that is connected.
o The inputs and outputs are the system control points: the inputs monitor the signals
from the field devices (such as sensors and switches), and the outputs control pumps,
motors, or other devices in your process.
o The communications port allows you to connect the CPU to a programming device or to
other devices.
o Status lights provide visual information about the CPU mode (RUN or STOP), the current
state of the local I/O, and whether a system fault has been detected.
o Some CPUs provide a real-time clock as a built-in feature, while other CPUs require the
real-time clock cartridge
o A plug-in serial EEPROM cartridge provides a means to store CPU programs and transfer
programs from one CPU to another.
o A plug-in battery cartridge provides extended retention of data memory in RAM.

Figure 1-3 shows the S7-200 CPU.

Expansion Modules:
The S7-200 CPU provides a certain number of local I/O. Adding an expansion module provides
additional input or output points (see Figure 1-4).
