The CP 342-5 FO operates as a DP-V0 Master according to IEC 61 158/EN 50 170 Volume 2 and processes the data transfer completely independently. It supports the services of the Master Classes 1 and 2.
The CP 342-5 FO as a DP-V0 Slave allows the SIMATIC S7-300 to exchange data with the SIMATIC S7-400 and with other PROFIBUS DP masters via the OBT. which allows a hybrid setup between SIMATIC S5/S7, PCs, ET 200 and other field devices to PROFIBUS DP. Function calls are required for DP communication, both as master and as slave. These (DP-SEND/DP-RECV) are shipped with STEP 7 and must be integrated in the user program.
