Key System Features
- Modular and Compact Build: Ranging from small brick controllers (S5-90U) to large rack-mounted modular systems (S5-135U and S5-155U) for complex plant control.
- Programming Software: Programmed using STEP 5 software, typically via DOS-based environments or specialized modern conversion/translation tools.
- Robust Hardware: Built for harsh industrial conditions, known for long lifespans, though original lithium backup batteries and EEPROM/RAM modules often require maintenance or replacement.
