The CPU 317-2 PN/DP is a CPU with a large program memory. It is used in installations which have distributed automation structures in addition to a centralized I/O. It can be used, for example, as a central controller in production lines or as a machine controller with stringent requirements on machining speed.

It has been optimized in terms of its quantity framework for using SIMATIC Engineering Tools, e.g.,:

• Programming with SCL
• Sequence control programming with S7-GRAPH

In addition, the CPU offers an ideal platform for simple technology tasks implemented in software, e.g.,:

• Easy Motion Control
• The solution of closed-loop control tasks with STEP 7 blocks or the runtime software Standard/Modular PID Control

Extended process diagnostics can be achieved by using SIMATIC S7-PDIAG.

The integrated combination possibilities of the CPU allow networked automation solutions to be implemented without the need for additional components.
