The Siemens 6GK7542-6VX00-0XE0 is the CP 1542SP-1 IRC, a communications processor for connecting a SIMATIC S7-ET 200SP Distributed Controller to Industrial Ethernet and tele control systems. It supports SINAUT ST7, Tele Control Server Basic, IEC 60870-5-104 and DNP3 protocols for control-center communication. Open Industrial Ethernet communication includes TCP/IP, ISO-on-TCP and UDP, with additional support for IP broadcast/multicast, SNMPV1, DHCP, secure email and IPv4/IPv6. The module supports SINEMA Remote Connect with autoconfiguration and NTP time synchronization. Its Industrial Ethernet interface operates at 10–100 Mbit/s through an ET 200SP Bus Adapter and integrated switch. Siemens specifies 24 V DC operation, 19.2–28.8 V supply range, IP20 protection and 35 mm DIN-rail mounting.

6. Important Ordering & Installation Information
The exact article number is 6GK7542-6VX00-0XE0. An appropriate ET 200SP Bus Adapter is required for the Industrial Ethernet interface. Siemens specifies 24 V DC operation with a 19.2–28.8 V range and 35 mm DIN-rail mounting. Check the required tele control protocol, firmware and security update level before deployment. Siemens security advisories specifically identify firmware versions below V2.4.24 as affected by a published vulnerability and recommend updating to V2.4.24 or later.
Always follow the manufacturer's official installation, wiring, commissioning and safety instructions.
7. Why Choose Siemens 6GK7542-6VX00-0XE0 CP 1542SP-1 IRC?
The CP 1542SP-1 IRC is suitable for ET 200SP installations that need tele control communication rather than only conventional Industrial Ethernet connectivity. Support for SINAUT ST7, DNP3, IEC 60870-5-104 and Tele Control Basic provides protocol flexibility for control-center integration.
8. Product Summary
The Siemens 6GK7542-6VX00-0XE0 CP 1542SP-1 IRC is an ET 200SP communications processor designed for Industrial Ethernet and tele control applications. It supports SINAUT ST7, DNP3, IEC 60870-5-104 and Tele Control Basic, together with TCP/IP, ISO-on-TCP and UDP open communication. The module provides a 10–100 Mbit/s Ethernet interface, 24 V DC supply and IP20 protection. It requires an ET 200SP Bus Adapter and supports 35 mm DIN-rail mounting. Firmware and security status should be checked before commissioning.
