AS-i Communications System: Simatic S7

The document discusses the AS-i communications system from Siemens. The AS-i system uses a two-wire cable to connect modular slave devices such as sensors and actuators to a master module. The master module connects to a PLC over Profibus. Slave devices are assigned a unique address between 1-31 that identifies them on the AS-i network. The modular design allows for flexible configuration and extension of I/O points using compact AS-i modules.
