Up to 6 CI857 modules can mount on a single AC 800M CEX-Bus platform, scaling I\/O density to manage up to 128 Motor Control Units (MCUs) per module via two INSUM TCP\/IP gateways. Internal power routing directly from the processor unit eliminates external 24 VDC wiring, maintaining low power dissipation while executing real-time switchgear time distribution and time stamping functions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQ: How is operating power supplied to the CI857 module on the CEX-Bus?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: The module draws power directly from the main processor unit via the CEX-Bus backplane interface at approximately 150 mA at 24 VDC, requiring no external power supply wiring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQ: What are the capacity limits for connecting Motor Control Units (MCUs) to a single module?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: A single CI857 module supports up to 128 MCUs and 2 INSUM TCP\/IP gateways. When deployed with high-capacity processors such as the PM864 or PM866, total system capacity reaches up to 256 MCUs across multiple interface cards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQ: Can the CI857 module be replaced while the AC 800M controller is online?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: Yes, the CI857 module supports hot-swapping on the TP853 baseplate, allowing live module replacement without powering down the CEX-Bus backplane or interrupting adjacent communication modules.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eField Installation Guidelines\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMount the TP853 baseplate (60 mm width) securely to the DIN rail before sliding the CI857 interface module onto the CEX-Bus connector chain. Ensure the baseplate locking clip engages fully to verify protective grounding continuity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eConnect the Ethernet network cable using an 8-pin RJ-45 connector configured for 10 Mbit\/s communication. Maintain physical separation between Ethernet signal cabling and high-voltage AC power lines to suppress electromagnetic interference. Ensure cabinet ventilation maintains ambient operating temperatures between 0 and +55 deg C to ensure steady thermal dissipation.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ABB","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52964165419320,"sku":"CI857K01 3BSE018144R1","price":188.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0893\/1616\/3896\/files\/596_c172594a-024b-4f34-b82a-aa4a2d824a49.jpg?v=1789522510","url":"https:\/\/www.automodulexpert.com\/products\/3bse018144r1-abb-ci857k01-ac-800m-insum-interface-module","provider":"AutoModuleXpert Ltd.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
