The compact control system

The VIPA system 100V is a Micro-PLC system programmable with STEP7 from Siemens or WinPLC7- a programming tool from VIPA. With a compact design, system 100V provides a maximum expansion of up to 160 I/O points by plugging in expansion modules. These Micro-PLCs are especially suitable for use in smaller and cost-conscious applications.

The modular control system

The VIPA System 200V is a highly compact and modular control system for centralized and decentralized applications. Due to the variety of modules available, it can be used for nearly all mid-range applications.

The control system for centralized and decentralized applications

The VIPA System 300V is a modular control system designed to be compatible to the S7-300® from Siemens. It is suitable for centralized and decentralized applications in the medium and upper range of performance.

The High - Speed control system

With the VIPA “SPEED7 Technology”, system 300S is the fastest control system in the world programmable with Step®7 from Siemens. The maximum memory for program and data has already been integrated into the SPEED7 CPUs. For this reason the CPUs can be operated without an additional memory card. Depending on the CPU type, the integrated work memory can be expanded to 8MByte with the VIPA Memory extension card as required. All CPUs in the System 300S are equipped with an Ethernet Interface for PG/OP communication. A CP 343 interface for TCP/IP communication has been integrated in the ‘NET’ CPUs. Because of its high performance and scalable memory, system 300S is especially suitable for mid to high range applications.

The PC control system

With the VIPA “Speed7 Technology”, system 500S is the fastest control system, programmable with Step®7 from Siemens, in the world. The maximum memory for program and data has already been integrated into the SPEED7 CPUs. Depending on the CPU type, the integrated memory can be expanded up to 8MByte respectively using the appropriate VIPA MCC - Memory extension card.
The VIPA system 500S has been designed for operation in a PC slot with PCI interface. An OPC server for communication between CPU and PC is included in the scope of delivery. Peripherals are connected through the integrated Profibus-DP-Master interface.
The CPUs are equipped with an Ethernet interface for PG/OP communication. The CPU 517S/NET has an additional CP343 for TCP/IP communication. Owing to their high performance (Speed7 Technology) and their scaleable memory, the CPUs are suitable for complex control tasks.

With display sizes of 5,7“ to 12,1“, Windows® CE 5.0 operating system and visualization software, the VIPA Touch Panels provide universally desirable solutions. The Touch Panels can also be installed with Windows® CE 5.0, Windows ® CE 5.0 Professional and with MoviconX Real Flexible or zenOn 6.21. The VIPA Commander Compact CC 03 with double spaced display, integrated CPU and I/O expansion capacity is the ideal solution for smaller control and operator tasks. The VIPA Operator Panel OP 03 and the Text Display TD 03 are universal operator panels for application with VIPA Systems and other control systems via MPI interface.

The VIPA Software options offer effective and comfortable tools for programming and parameterization of VIPA systems and other automation concepts. The whole VIPA Software assortment can be found on the ToolDemo-CD (SW810) which offers demo versions free of charge, upgradable to full licensing when required.

VIPA offers a wide range of accessories like programming, download or Profibus-DP cables, memory modules and Profibus-DP plugs with diagnosis.
