4. Main Features
PROFIBUS DP-V1 Communication
- Provides reliable communication between S800 I/O stations and controllers.
- Supports cyclic process data exchange and acyclic parameter/diagnostic communication.
Redundant Operation Capability
- Designed for high-availability applications.
- Supports 1+1 redundant communication configurations.
- A redundant setup requires two CI840A modules together with a suitable termination unit such as TU846 or TU847.
Advanced I/O Management
The CI840A provides:
- I/O ModuleBus supervision
- Signal processing
- Configuration handling
- Diagnostic information collection
- Output State Preservation (OSP) handling
- HART pass-through support
Hot Configuration in Run
Allows configuration changes while the automation system remains operational, reducing downtime during maintenance or expansion.
