Siemens TCP/IP Unsolicited Ethernet

Product Overview

The Siemens TCP/IP Unsolicited Ethernet driver was designed specifically for use with the KEPServerEX communications platform. It acts as a simulated Siemens PLC, and is intended for simulation of Siemens S7-300. The mode of communications is S7 Messaging on Industrial Ethernet (ISO 8073 Class 0) over TCP/IP as defined in RFC1006.

The Siemens TCP/IP Unsolicited Ethernet driver does not require special libraries or hardware. All that is needed is a standard Ethernet card. Devices require specialized ladder programming to communicate with this driver.

Features

• Supports 256 virtual devices
• Supports the SFB14-GET and SFB15-PUT commands

A driver is a software component that enables KEPServerEX to meet the communication requirements of a specific device, system, or other data source. The driver handles all proprietary communications between the data source and KEPServerEX; KEPServerEX handles all OPC or proprietary client communications between the driver and the client application(s).

Drivers may be licensed individually or in suites. Additional drivers can be licensed on demand as connectivity needs evolve. All OPC client interfaces can connect to KEPServerEX without additional charge.
