More Information

Overview Manuals Master/Slave Paths Host Integration Data Exchange Board Diagnostics

Features:

  • 6GK1561-4AA02 connects a PCI host to two independent PROFIBUS networks.
  • An onboard processor and dual-port RAM offload communication from the PC.
  • FastLogic supports deterministic DP processing directly on the CP 5614 A3.
The two-interface layout lets one card coordinate a master segment while participating separately as a DP device, without combining both roles on one connector.

Host applications can use PG/OP, S7 and FDL services through the corresponding SIMATIC NET software paths, giving each communication task a defined interface.

On-card filtering and event handling reduce unnecessary transfers across the PCI bus, while diagnostic indicators expose the operating state of the PROFIBUS channels.

The Siemens 6GK1561-4AA02 CP 5614 A3 may be available for purchase and support from Apter Power.
Siemens 6GK1561-4AA02 CP 5614 A3 Manuals,Datasheets,Link Important Notice: Other accessories, manuals, cables, calibration data, software, etc. are not included with this equipment unless listed in the above stock item description. All prices are shown in USD.

Two-network role assignment

  • Interface One: The first PROFIBUS port operates as the DP master channel.
  • Interface Two: The second port supports DP device or slave operation.
  • Network Separation: Each role uses an independent PROFIBUS segment.
  • Connector Form: Both paths terminate on screw-locked 9-pin Sub-D female connectors.

PCI platform requirements

  • Bus Width: The communications processor uses a 32-bit PCI interface.
  • Signaling: The card supports both 3.3 V and 5 V PCI signaling.
  • Clock Rate: A 33 MHz or 66 MHz PCI bus can host the card.
  • Card Count: As many as four CP 5614 A3 cards can be installed in one PC.

Software communication services

  • PG/OP: Programming-device and operator-panel communication is supported.
  • S7 Services: HARDNET-PB S7 provides the S7 communication interface.
  • FDL Services: The FDL interface supplies SEND/RECEIVE functions.
  • Direct Processing: FastLogic executes selected DP data handling on the card.

Commissioning and state visibility

  • Indicators: Board LEDs report communication and operating conditions.
  • Configuration: The supplied tool assigns the two PROFIBUS roles.
  • Diagnostics: PC-based diagnostics can inspect the interfaces during commissioning.
  • Event Handling: Filter and event functions flag relevant data changes to the host.
Description
Built for SIMATIC NET communication, Siemens 6GK1561-4AA02 is the CP 5614 A3 PCI communications processor for linking a PC to two separate PROFIBUS networks. One interface operates as a DP master and the second can run as a DP device or slave.

A dedicated processor and dual-port RAM allow Siemens 6GK1561-4AA02 to handle PROFIBUS activity independently before exchanging data with the host. Event and filter mechanisms identify relevant changes instead of requiring continuous host-side polling.

Communication services on Siemens 6GK1561-4AA02 include PG/OP functions, S7 communication through HARDNET-PB S7, and SEND/RECEIVE operation through the FDL interface. FastLogic processing can execute time-critical DP exchanges directly on the card.

Two screw-locked 9-pin Sub-D connectors keep the PROFIBUS master and device paths physically distinct on Siemens 6GK1561-4AA02. LED indications and the supplied configuration and diagnostics tools support commissioning of both networks from the host PC.

FAQS

The following is a list of questions commonly asked by our customers. Please contact us if you have a question about our process that is not answered below.
How can I verify the host slot before installing Siemens 6GK1561-4AA02?
Check that the PC provides a 32-bit PCI slot with 3.3 V or 5 V signaling and a 33 or 66 MHz bus clock for Siemens 6GK1561-4AA02.
Why are two PROFIBUS connectors present on Siemens 6GK1561-4AA02?
Siemens 6GK1561-4AA02 separates the DP master network from the DP device or slave network, so each path has its own 9-pin Sub-D connector.
What helps Siemens 6GK1561-4AA02 avoid continuous host polling?
A dedicated processor, dual-port RAM and event/filter mechanisms let Siemens 6GK1561-4AA02 pass relevant communication changes to the PC.
Which service should be selected for S7 communication through Siemens 6GK1561-4AA02?
S7 communication on Siemens 6GK1561-4AA02 uses HARDNET-PB S7, while FDL provides the SEND/RECEIVE path.
Can time-critical DP data be processed locally by Siemens 6GK1561-4AA02?
FastLogic allows Siemens 6GK1561-4AA02 to process selected time-critical DP exchanges directly on the communications processor.
How should the two networks be diagnosed during Siemens 6GK1561-4AA02 commissioning?
Use the supplied configuration and diagnostics tools together with the interface LEDs to inspect each Siemens 6GK1561-4AA02 PROFIBUS path independently.
