6 fast counters (max. 1 MHz), with parameterizable enable and reset inputs, can be used simultaneously as up and down counters with 2 separate inputs or for connecting incremental encoders.
Expansion by additional communication interfaces, e.g. RS485, RS232, PROFIBUS.
Expansion by analog or digital signals directly on the CPU via signal board (with retention of CPU mounting dimensions).
Expansion by a wide range of analog and digital input and output signals via signal modules.
Optional memory expansion (SIMATIC Memory Card).
