Product details

Key network and protocol features

The 6ES7517-3UP00-0AB0: PROFINET controller on board with two ports (100 Mbps), supports MRP manager and MRP client for ring redundancy. MRPD is listed but requires IRT — this CPU does not have IRT, so MRPD is not usable. Modbus TCP server/client is integrated (no extra CM needed). RS-485 (X3 interface) enables connection to Modbus RTU or other serial devices. Up to 8 additional communication modules (CM/CP) can be inserted for PROFIBUS, additional PROFINET, or Ethernet. Integrated PID controllers for temperature and valve control are pre-loaded, reducing the need for external loop controllers. Forcing is supported for non-failsafe signals, which aids commissioning without switching to hardware jumpers.

Frequently asked questions

What is the DCP support on this CPU?

DCP (Discovery and Configuration Protocol) is enabled — you can assign IP addresses and device names via PROFINET without a memory card or manual switch.

Does this CPU support DNS?

Yes, DNS client functionality is included for name resolution on the plant network.

Is the 6ES7517-3UP00-0AB0 a direct swap for the 6ES7517-3TP00-0AB0?

Mechanically identical, but the UP00 includes fail-safe firmware (PROFIsafe V2.4/V2.6) and safety-rated function blocks. Swapping into a panel wired for the TP00 will work, but you must reconfigure the safety logic and enable the safety runtime. For a non-safety line, the TP00 is the correct part.
