3.5.3 Processor System
The processor system uses self-tests to control and monitor communication. Data is exchanged
between communication and processor modules via the redundant system bus. The system bus
has a redundant structure for reasons of availability. Redundancy is only ensured if both system
bus modules are inserted in the base plates and configured accordingly.
The operating system and the error code history are stored in a non-volatile memory and can be
read in SILworX via the diagnostics.
3.5.4 Ethernet Switch
The integrated switch is used to configure different networks.
3.5.5 Ethernet Interface
The communication module is equipped with 4 Ethernet switch ports connected to the Ethernet
interface of the processor system via an integrated Ethernet switch.
Ethernet, 10BASE-T/100BASE-Tx, half and full duplex
SafeEthernet, standard protocols
1)
The general rules for assigning IP addresses and subnet masks must be adhered to.
Table 2: Ethernet Interface Properties
In accordance with the generally accepted regulation for developing Ethernet networks, no
network loop may occur. Data packets may only reach a controller over a single path.
3.5.6 Fieldbus Interfaces on the X-CB 001 02 Connector Board
The fieldbus interfaces are activated through the integrated fieldbus submodule. The fieldbus
submodules determine the interface transmission standard and must be specified when
ordering the module. Only 1 protocol can be run on each fieldbus interface.
Depending on the fieldbus submodule
Standard protocols, see communication manual (HI 801 101 E).
Table 3: Fieldbus Interface Specifications
Wiring, bus termination:
▪ Observe the corresponding fieldbus standard when connecting the fieldbus interfaces.
▪ Use the bus terminations to terminate the fieldbuses on their physical ends.
