Performance and architecture
• High-performance CPU plus extensive flash memory to perform wide range of control functions — from simple data acquisition to sophisticated, closed-loop algorithms — via user-friendly program configurator
• Modular construction matched to specific application requirements:
- Low-density or high-density I/O modules — Redundant CPU, power supplies, communication lines
- Interfaces to typical communications media
- Optimized transmission techniques for low-speed data lines
• Compact powered backplane for smaller, less costly range of I/O designs; smaller footprint; and common external power supply for multiple CPU systems
• Capability to chain multiple backplanes for communications and I/O expansion
• Intelligent I/O modules for functionality such as high-speed scanning, sequence-of-events (SOE) monitoring and fail-safe output configuration — all normally found in more expensive controllers
• Scalability from 1 to 16 communication ports and 4 to 1024 I/O points
Operations
• User program control of communications and logic sequencing
- Interfaces to typical communications media
- Optimized transmission techniques for low-speed data lines
