Suconet K interface
The interface has the following functions:
Networking:
Network interface for Suconet K stations (e.g. for
connecting Suconet K master or slave PLCs,
EM 4-... expansion modules).
The programming of networks via Suconet K is
described in the section entitled "Programming
via Suconet K" on Page 63. The Suconet K
interface (RS 485) is electrically isolated from the
CPU.
Transparent communication:
Transparent communication for the exchange of
data with partner devices which have a serial
interface (e.g. printers, terminals, etc.). Data for
process control must not be exchanged.
Transparent communication via the Suconet K
interface is enabled by the “SCO”function block
of Sucosoft S 40. A description of the function
block can be found in the manual “Language
elements of PS 4-150/-200/-300 and PS 416"
(AWB 2700-1306 GB). The interface is electrically
isolated from the CPU.

Setpoint potentiometers
The two setpoint potentiometers P1and P2can be
set externally with a screwdriver. This allows you to
change setpoint values without a programming
device. The resolution is 10 bits. In the programming
software, you can address the setpoint
potentiometers with the operands “IAW0.0.0.0”and
“IAW0.0.0.2“.
Switch S1 for setting the bus terminating
resistors
The bus terminating resistors of the stations which
are physically first and last on the bus must be turned
on. The bus terminating resistors of stations between
these two must be turned off (see section "Setting of
bus terminating resistors" on Page 18).
Programming device interface (PRG)
The interface has the following functions:
Programming of the PLC with a PC
Data exchange with partner devices which have a
serial interface (e.g. printers, terminals, etc.). Data
for process control must not be exchanged.
Communication via the interface is controlled by
the “SCO”function block of Sucosoft S 40. A
description of the block can be found in the
manual “Language elements of
PS 4-150/-200/-300 and PS 416"
(AWB 2700-1306 GB). The interface is electrically
isolated from the CPU.

Memory modules
The PS 4-271 has an internal 32 kByte RAM memory
with battery backup. The memory is subdivided into
data and user program memory areas.
Up to 24 kByte are available for the user program.
The storage space for data and user program is
allocated dynamically: if the data memory requires
more than 8 kByte, the size of the user program
memory is reduced accordingly.
Figure 2: Dynamic memory allocation
The memory capacity of the internal RAM can be
expanded with plug-in memory modules. The
following modules are available:
The 32 kByte RAM module increases the size of
the user program memory. There is then a
maximum of 56 kByte of user program memory
available.
The 128 kByte flash module is divided into a
64 kByte backup memory (the user program is
stored instead of being reset in the event of
voltage failure) and a 64 kByte memory - for
recipe data, for example.
