Siemens 6AU1435-2AD00-0AA0 SIMOTION D435-2 DP/PN Motion Controller
01Technical Summary
Siemens 6AU1435-2AD00-0AA0 is the SIMOTION D435-2 DP/PN programmable motion controller in the standard-performance class. It integrates motion control, PLC, and drive-control functions and adds an onboard PROFINET interface with three ports to the PROFIBUS and DRIVE-CLiQ connectivity required for distributed machine automation.
02Applications
Typical Uses
- Multi-axis production machines combining PLC sequencing, motion control, and drive coordination.
- PROFINET I/O applications requiring deterministic machine networking and integrated three-port connectivity.
- Mixed PROFIBUS and PROFINET plants where existing field devices must remain connected.
- SINAMICS S120 systems with servo, vector, or V/f drive objects connected through DRIVE-CLiQ.
- Maintenance or controlled expansion of an installed D435-2 DP/PN machine platform.
Selection Boundary
- Use application examples only as engineering context; they do not prove compatibility with an installed machine.
- Confirm electrical, mechanical, network, software, safety, environmental, and lifecycle requirements against the complete project.
- Preserve configuration records and perform controlled commissioning whenever hardware is exchanged.

05Compatibility
- Do not substitute the DP-only 6AU1435-2AA00-0AA0 without reviewing PROFINET topology, device names, timing, and project hardware configuration.
- Confirm controller firmware, SCOUT or SCOUT TIA version, CompactFlash card, licenses, technology packages, and supported option boards.
- Match PROFINET device names, IP addresses, IRT topology, update times, synchronization domain, PROFIBUS settings, and telegram assignments.
- Preserve the complete SINAMICS DRIVE-CLiQ topology and the approved motor, encoder, safety, and control parameters.
- Check cabinet cooling, fan/battery module, connectors, shields, grounding, and the 24 V supply.
- A migration to another SIMOTION or automation platform requires project conversion and validation of motion performance.
06Maintenance & Replacement
- Archive the complete engineering project, controller diagnostics, licenses, and CompactFlash card before maintenance.
- Record every PROFINET and PROFIBUS address, device name, port connection, timing setting, axis, drive object, encoder, I/O point, and option module.
- Inspect the fan/battery module and verify that cabinet airflow and ambient conditions remain within the machine design.
- After replacement, verify network startup, time synchronization, axes, drive enables, feedback, homing, limits, technology objects, alarms, interlocks, and safety functions.
- Complete controlled motion and production tests before automatic operation.
- Use the current lifecycle state to plan a supported migration with adequate time for hardware, software, network, and validation work.
FAQFrequently Asked Questions
What is 6AU1435-2AD00-0AA0?
6AU1435-2AD00-0AA0 is a standard-performance SIMOTION D435-2 DP/PN motion controller with integrated SINAMICS drive control and onboard three-port PROFINET.
Where is this product normally used?
It is used in multi-axis machines that require PROFINET, PROFIBUS, and DRIVE-CLiQ connectivity.
What must be checked before ordering?
Confirm the complete article number, installed hardware revision, lifecycle state, supply and I/O design, communication interfaces, connector assignment, software release, approvals, and project configuration.
What information should be saved before replacement?
Save the project, card contents, licenses, firmware, topology, device names, IP settings, PROFIBUS data, axes, drives, I/O, safety records, and commissioning values.
Can a similar Siemens article be used as a direct replacement?
No. Even a related D435-2 article may change onboard communication, memory, firmware support, and hardware configuration, so the exact project must be reviewed.
What should be verified after installation?
Verify PROFINET and PROFIBUS communication, synchronization, every axis and drive, feedback, I/O, diagnostics, alarms, interlocks, safety functions, and a controlled production cycle.
