11.1 What is Multiple CPU System ?
(1) Configuration of multiple CPU system
The multiple CPU system is a system where more than CPU module are mounted on
the main base unit and each of them controls I/O modules and/or intelligent function
modules individually.
*1
Note that the redundant power main base units and redundant power extension base
units cannot be used with the C Controller module.
* 1 Up to 4 C Controller modules/High Performance model QCPUs or up to 3 Basic model QCPUs
can comprise a multiple CPU system.
Applicable CPU modules are shown in Table11.1.
Note11.1

Refer to Section 12.2 for compatible versions.Ãç2
* 2 Combinations of the C Controller module and the PC CPU module are not allowed for the multiple
CPU systems.
Taking into account a system scale and applications, select the most suitable CPU
modules to configure a desired system.
Refer to Section 13.1 for combinations of applicable CPU modules.
