SIMATIC 545/555/575 System Manual
B.2 Module Compatibility with CPUs
Unmodified Series 505 discrete I/O modules manufactured prior to
January, 1988 are unable to report module status and, therefore, cannot be
recognized by the 545, 555, or 575 CPU (that is, inputs are not read and
outputs are not written). Series 505 discrete I/O modules manufactured in
January, 1988 or later and those manufactured prior to this date that have
been modified do contain the status-reporting mechanism, and are
compatible with 545, 555, or 575 CPUs.
The Series 505 32-Input Simulator (PPX:505–6010) and 32-Output
Simulator (PPX:505–6011) are also affected by this compatibility restriction.
NOTE: Note 1 in Table B-3 identifies all affected modules.
The following modules are fully compatible with 545, 555, and 575 CPUs,
regardless of the manufacturing date.
• All Series 500 I/O, and all non-discrete (for instance, analog) Series 505
I/O, with the exception of the High Speed Counter, as described on
page B-8
• Series 505 8-Channel Word Input (PPX:505–6308) and 8-Channel
Word Output (PPX:505–6408)
The serial number found on each module contains the manufacturing date
of the module. The fifth through the eighth characters of the serial number
determine the manufacturing date; see Figure B-1.
NOTE: Units manufactured prior to January, 1988 that have been modified
have the letter G immediately following the serial number.
Before you install Series 505 discrete modules into a 545/555/575 system,
check the serial number of each module to ensure it is compatible with the
545/555/575 CPU.
