Installation Configuration
You can install an S7-200 either on a panel or on a standard rail. You can mount
the S7-200 either horizontally or vertically. You can connect the S7-200 to
expansion modules by one of these methods:
 A flexible ribbon cable with mating connector is built into the I/O module for
easy connection to the PLC or another expansion module.
 An I/O expansion cable is also available to add flexibility to your mounting
configuration.
Figure 2-1 shows a typical configuration for these types of installations.
