S7-GATE connector with integrated firewall for Siemens S7-PLCs

Visualisation via 3964R-interface without using the protocol itself

Your visualisation-software does not support a 3964R-protocol, but you have to apply this package? No problem, connect the 3964R-LAN to your CP and activate the RFC1006-emulation in the module. Now your software gets the data from the module via RFC1006, which in turn communicates with the assembly via 3964R.

Extension of a 3964R-line via LAN

There is a control with CP524 in your outstation and the communication partner of the CP has moved locally. Connecting path is a LAN-network. So each of both participants gets a 3964R-LAN and after input of the partner’s IP-address a coupling via LAN will be configured.

PLC coupling (data exchange between PLC’s)

Your pumping stations report the water levels of the central control via telephone network. The central office itself can of course transmit commands/messages to the substations as well. Therefore no dedicated line is required, it’s sufficient when the stations connect via network (DSL-router).

With the S5-H1-PG-LAN you would be able to use the H1-path-selection over the S5-LAN++ and communicate with all PLCs in the H1-bus. You don´t have to connect serial to the CP, you can do this easy over your network.

Remote maintenance of your S5-PLC via LAN / Internet

You have access to a on-site network and your PLC has no LAN-connection? No problem, plug the S5-LAN on the PLC and you will have immediate access to the PLC from afar.

Programming of S5-PLC’s via LAN

You would like to respond to your S5-PLC via LAN, but not integrate an Ethernet-CP? No problem, plug the S5-LAN++ on the PD-interface and access via LAN.

Communication with Win98 – XP/Vista/7/8/10/11 via network to S5-PLC

You still have a PC with Win98 and a MS-DOS-based Step5-package and would like to go Online on your S5-PLC via LAN? No problem, the provided virtual Com-Port PLCVCom emulates a COM-port on your PC with which you go Online. Even your MS-DOS-based Step5-software on this WIN98-PC can use this virtual Com-Port. With a patchtool for the Siemens Step5-software, which is provided as well, nothing else stands in your way to communicate via LAN.

Watching of S5- PLC’s with panel for S7-PLC

Your panel only has a LAN-socket as PLC-interface and supports only S7-RFC1006, no problem. Connect this socket with the S5-LAN++ and plug it directly on the PD-interface of the PLC. The S5-LAN++ performs adverse your panel as a S7-PLC although you receive the data from the S5-PLC. Then access to the variables and data of the S5-PLC is already available.

Watching of S5-PLC’s via LAN without Ethernet-CP

Your panel only has a LAN-socket as PLC-interface, no problem. Connect this socket with the S5-LAN++ and plug it directly on the PD-interface of the PLC. Then access to the variables and data of the PLC is already available.
