Dear Friends,
Refering to subject line, I would like to ask you that if any one has ever used S5-CX945 for upgradation from S5 series outdated Siemens PLC. I am working for a Palm Oil Refinery which is around 10 yrs old & is having S5-115U PLC. There are no spare cards & many of the inputs are burnt & most of the spares I/O's are used. I am thinking of suggesting upgrade to my management. With the cost sensitive market today I want to spend least possible amount. In nut shell I am thinking of changing PLC only & not the old WIZCON SCADAD system. The more I have read about S5-CX, I think it will be compatible with old WIZCON system also.( A fact I am yet to establish!!!! ) But all I am asking you gyus the feasability of using this as a improvement from S5 series & what are the maximum I/O exapansion possible with it. Is it only a processor which will go with old S5 I/O's or it comes with its own I/O's.
Regards,
Neeraj
