Only one (CP 243--1) E thernet module should be connected per S7--200 CPU.
The (CP 243--1) Ethernet module is a communications processor used for connecting the S7-200
system to Industrial Ethernet (IE). The S7-200 can be remotely configured, programmed and
diagnosed via Ethernet using STEP 7 Micro/WIN. The S7-200 can communicate with another
S7--200, S7-300, or S7-400 controller via Ethernet. It can also communicate with an OPC server.
Industrial Ethernet is designed for industry. It can be used with either noise-free industrial twisted
pair (ITP) technology, or the Industry-standard twisted pair (TP) technology. Industrial Ethernet can
be implemented to offer a wide range of application specific uses, such as switching, high-speed
redundancy, fast connects, and redundant networks. Using the (CP 243--1) Ethernet module, the
S7-200 PLC is made compatible with a wide range of existing products that support Ethernet.
