It also supports the SINAUT ST7 protocol for legacy telecontrol networks and can act as an NTP client for time synchronization across the automation network. ## Protocols and engineering constraints The module handles IEC 60870-5-104 and DNP3 in both directions — up to 3 send connections and 15 receive connections, with a maximum of 32 T-block connections for data point mapping. Engineering requires STEP 7 Professional V14 (TIA Portal) or higher — older versions cannot configure this module, so factor the software version into your build schedule. Supply voltage is 19.2 to 28.8 VDC drawn from the backplane bus; the module dissipates 6 W, which contributes to the rack's thermal budget. The module snaps onto a 35 mm top-hat DIN rail and measures 60 mm wide by 117 mm high by 74 mm deep — it occupies one standard S7-1500 slot width. IP20 rated, so it belongs inside a closed control cabinet with no washdown exposure.","metaTitle":"Siemens 6GK7542-6VX00-0XE0 CP 1542SP-1 IRC","metaDescription":"Siemens CP 1542SP-1 IRC communication module for S7-1500.
