The SIMATIC S7-1500 is modularly structured, with scalable functionality. 
Each controller consists of

• A central processing unit (CPU) for executing the user program

• One or more power supplies

• Signal modules as inputs/outputs

• And technology and communication modules as required.

• And Safety? It's integrated in the F-modules, of course!

Fast, faster, SIMATIC S7-1500: The exceptional system performance allows for extremely fast response times for optimal control quality and highest system performance.

Communication

SIMATIC S7-1500 has up to 3 PROFINET ports.

• Two ports with identical IP addresses for field level communication and

• a third one with its own
  IP address for integration into the company network.

PROFINET IRT allows defined response times and highly precise plant behavior.
