Features:
- One point-to-point channel is paired with a separately selected electrical interface module.
- ASCII, 3964(R), and printer functions organize serial transfer and message output.
- Parameter and message-text memory support the configured communication application.
Siemens 6ES7441-1AA05-0AE0 separates serial processing from the S7-400 CPU program.
The interface submodule installed in 6ES7441-1AA05-0AE0 defines the cable signals and speed boundary.
Communication blocks move buffered user data between 6ES7441-1AA05-0AE0 and the controller program.
The Siemens 6ES7441-1AA05-0AE0 SIMATIC S7-400 CP 441-1 Point-to-Point Communication Module may still be available for purchase and support from Apter Power beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).

Replaceable Electrical Interface
- Module selection: The fitted interface module determines RS232, RS422/485, or 20 mA TTY signaling.
- Cable assignment: Connector wiring and signal roles follow that interface module rather than the CP base alone.
- Rate boundary: Each electrical interface has its own documented maximum transmission rate.
- Replacement check: Record the CP, interface submodule, cable pinout, and partner electrical standard together.
Serial Transfer Procedures
- ASCII path: Transparent character transfer uses the configured frame and end criteria.
- 3964(R) path: Coordinated telegram handling adds control characters and acknowledgements.
- Printer function: Stored message text and variables can be formatted for a supported printer connection.
- Unsupported service: RK 512 is not provided by this CP variant and must not be selected in the project.
Parameters, Texts and CPU Blocks
- Parameter area: Interface settings occupy the documented parameter-memory range.
- Text area: Printer messages use the available message-text memory when that function is configured.
- CPU exchange: Communication blocks and their data areas pass payloads and status between the CPU and CP.
- Backup scope: Preserve hardware configuration, protocol parameters, message texts, function blocks, and instance data.
Power and Environmental Checks
- Backplane supply: The S7-400 rack provides the module logic with the documented DC supply paths.
- Interface load: The installed interface submodule contributes to current demand and power loss.
- Temperature: Cabinet conditions must remain inside the operating limit for the complete fitted assembly.
- Commissioning: Test both transfer directions, status codes, error handling, and printer output where configured.
