CP 5431 FMS/DP — Communication Processor
Siemens (SIMATIC NET) · CP 5431 FMS/DP · 6GK1543-1AA01
Description
IMPORTANT CORRECTION: order number 6GK1543-1AA01 decodes to the CP 5431 FMS/DP, a PROFIBUS (FMS and DP) communication processor card — NOT a CP 1543 Industrial Ethernet processor as the inventory label implies. The CP 5431 FMS/DP is typically an ISA/PC-bus (or S5-bus family) card providing a PROFIBUS interface for master or slave communication, used to link a host/PLC into a PROFIBUS FMS or DP network.

Notes
CORRECTION FLAGGED: inventory listed this as "CP 1543" but 6GK1543-1AA01 is the Siemens order number for the CP 5431 FMS/DP PROFIBUS card, not the Industrial-Ethernet CP 1543. No Drive manual specific to the CP 5431 FMS/DP was found; the CP1430 manuals in Drive cover a different (Industrial Ethernet) processor and are not an accurate match. Recommend physically verifying the nameplate/order number before using this record for procurement.
