Overview Manuals Common Applications Product Precautions
Siemens 6DR2803-8C is serial interface module. It exchanges SIPART controller process data and settings with a higher-level system through a jumper-selected RS232 or RS485 serial interface.
  • Supports RS232 or RS485 signaling
  • Transfers process variables and configuration data
  • Operates from 300 to 9600 bit per second
  • Provides galvanic isolation to the controller

6DR2803-8C operates with compatible SIPART DR controller, jumper-selected RS232 or RS485 wiring, higher-level supervisory or configuration system, approved serial protocol and station parameters.

Engineered applications include SIPART supervisory communication, Serial process-data exchange, Controller configuration link, SES module replacement.

Important Notice: Record the RS232/RS485 jumper selection, data rate, station address, monitoring time, cable type and protocol before removal; verify controller-specific interface support.

Important Notice: The first document presents exact-model technical and engineering data. The second provides a separate installation, connection, commissioning and acceptance workflow.

SIPART supervisory communication
Links a SIPART controller to a higher-level station.
Serial process-data exchange
Transfers operating states, variables and setpoints serially.
Controller configuration link
Supports parameter and configuration access under the approved protocol.
SES module replacement
Restores the exact isolated serial-interface position.
Read the applicable Siemens instructions before work. Verify 6DR2803-8C and the installed Siemens SIPART DR controller system configuration.
1
Verify the complete 6DR2803-8C marking and the assigned Siemens SIPART DR controller system position before work.
2
Place the connected sipart supervisory communication process in the approved maintenance state.
3
Isolate all applicable power and isolated rs232 or rs485 serial controller data field energy before disconnection.
4
Record every connector, conductor, address, jumper and project identity before removal.
5
Use ESD controls and protect keyed interfaces, exposed contacts and electronic assemblies.
6
Confirm the installed compatible SIPART DR controller and jumper-selected RS232 or RS485 wiring against the approved system record.
7
Restore power in a controlled sequence and review module, rack and host diagnostics.
8
Prove the intended serial process-data exchange function and retain the final acceptance result.
