The WF 705 module can be used in the SIMATIC S7-400 in different ways:
•
In a SIMATIC S7-400 central unit by means of SIMATIC S5 adapter casing
•
In a SIMATIC S5 extension unit linked with the central unit of the SIMATIC S7-400 via
interfaces IM463-2 (S7) and IM314 (S5).
In the SIMATIC S7-400 central unit, you can plug:
•
Up to 8 adapter casings, i.e. up to 8 WF modules
•
Up to 4 IM463-2; each IM463-2 can be linked with up to 8 SIMATIC S5 extension units.
In a SIMATIC S7-400 system, you can address:
•
Up to 64 WF 705 modules
STEP7-Tool HWKonfig (hardware configuration) is needed for:
•
Configuration of the adapter casing
•
Configuration of the IM463-2 interface
