Features:
- A half-length PCI Express x1 card connects a PC station to one PROFIBUS segment.
- The nine-pin RS485 interface supports rates from 9.6 kbit/s through 12 Mbit/s.
- DP-RAM and DP-Base provide the host data path for master, device, PG and FDL operation.
The CP 5623 separates the PC-side PCI Express exchange from the RS485 fieldbus connection.
A master configuration allocates cyclic data to connected DP devices, while a device configuration exposes PC data to another master.
Additional S7 or FMS services require the software package identified for that communication type.
The Siemens 6GK1562-3AA00 SIMATIC NET CP 5623 PROFIBUS Processor may still be available for purchase and support from Apter Power beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).

Moving fieldbus data through the PC backplane
- PCIe connection: The half-length card occupies one PCI Express x1 slot in the PC station.
- DP-RAM exchange: Process, control and diagnostic information passes between host software and the CP through shared interface memory.
- Backplane power: The slot supplies both the 3.3 V and 12 V rails used by the processor.
- Card density: A PC station can accept the documented number of cards when its slots and software configuration permit.
Allocating cyclic data to PROFIBUS devices
- Master services: DPV0, DPV1 and DPV2 functions are available in the documented master role.
- Device count: One configured master can coordinate as many as 124 DP devices.
- Per-device data: Each device can receive as many as 244 input bytes and 244 output bytes.
- Diagnostics: The address allocation also reserves the documented device diagnostic area.
Using the processor outside the master role
- DP device mode: The PC station can present configured DPV0 or DPV1 input and output data to another master.
- FDL service: SEND/RECEIVE communication uses the included FDL driver and its connection resources.
- PG access: Engineering traffic shares the PROFIBUS interface through the supported PG service.
- Multiprotocol use: Active and configurable connection totals must remain within the documented PC-station limits.
Matching each service to its runtime package
- DP-Base: The included runtime supplies the documented DP master, PG and FDL foundation.
- Configuration tool: The supplied engineering component assigns interface and PROFIBUS parameters.
- S7 communication: HARDNET-PB S7 is required when the card carries configured S7 services.
- FMS communication: FMS-5613 supplies the runtime needed for the documented FMS connections.
