Product Details
Description
The CI830 functions as the intelligent head-end unit for a remote I/O station, supporting the integration of up to 12 S800 I/O modules. It performs the essential tasks of module initialization, configuration parameter distribution, and continuous supervision of the attached hardware. By translating the internal ModuleBus signals into the PROFIBUS DP-V0 protocol, it ensures seamless interoperability with a wide range of PLCs and DCS masters. This module is ideal for distributed automation layouts in manufacturing, water treatment, and food processing where reliable fieldbus communication is required.
