Overview
IEC 60870-5-101, IEC 60870-5-103 and IEC 60870-5-104 are
standardized vendor-independent protocols.
For implementing an RTU (

nit) with
IEC 60870-5 on the basis of SIMATIC, the CP 1243-1 IEC for
SIMATIC S7-1200 and the SIPLUS RIC software bundle are
offered.
Telecontrol communications processors
CP 1243-1 IEC
The CP 1243-1 IEC (IEC 60870-5-104 protocol) is an Industrial
Remote Communication module for telecontrol substations with
SIMATIC S7-1200. It has an RJ45 interface, which allows
communication over IP-based networks.
SIPLUS RIC
With SIPLUS RIC, the IEC protocols can be parameterized with
SIMATIC Manager without the need for additional installations.
As a result, SIMATIC controllers can also communicate with non-
Siemens products.
The SIPLUS RIC bundles usually comprise:
• CPU
•
Interface/communication module (if necessary)
•
Memory card
•
CD with library and registration code.
SIPLUS RIC products require additional material to establish
telecommunication links, e.g. TCP/IP converters – serial, dedi-
cated line modems, media converters, SCALANCE M industrial
routers, SCALANCE S security modules, SCALANCE X Ethernet
network components, cables etc.
