Siemens 6GK1562-4AA00 SIMATIC NET CP 5624 PCIe x1 Dual-Port PROFIBUS Communication Processor Card

The Siemens 6GK1562-4AA00 CP 5624 is a PCI Express x1 (3.3 V) communications processor with both a DP master and a DP device connection to PROFIBUS on two separate 9-pin Sub-D ports, supplied with a configuration tool and DP-Base software including a DP-RAM interface, PG protocol, and FDL protocol as a single-installation runtime license, class A.

Selection Notes

The second RS 485 port is the reason to pick this card over the single-port CP 5623: it runs an independent DP master on one port and a DP device connection (244-byte I/O) on the other, from the same PC. Master capacity and DPV0/DPV1/DPV2 support match the CP 5623 exactly, so choose this card specifically when the PC also needs to appear as a slave on a second PROFIBUS network rather than only mastering one.

Applications

PC stations that both master a PROFIBUS DP network and act as a DP device on a separate PROFIBUS segment, such as a gateway or supervisory PC bridging two independent bus systems.
