Backplane Bus Communication Velocity & I/O Density
The module interfaces directly to the CEX-Bus backplane extension of the AC 800M controller to achieve high-speed backplane bus communication velocity and deterministic protocol conversion. The unit bidirectional-maps process variables and status indicators between the 10/100 Mbit/s High-Speed Ethernet (HSE) subnet and IEC 61131 application programs. Up to 12 CI860 modules can mount on a single CEX-Bus backplane assembly without external power wiring, optimizing cabinet I/O density scaling while maintaining dual-module hardware redundancy across control tasks.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How does the module receive operating power within the CEX-Bus backplane assembly?
A: The processor unit powers the module directly through the internal CEX-Bus ribbon and backplane connections, removing the requirement for external 24 VDC field power wiring.
Q: Does the unit support both module redundancy and Ethernet line redundancy?
A: The hardware supports dual-module hardware redundancy on the CEX-Bus, but it does not support media/line redundancy on its single Ethernet connection.
Q: Is hot-swapping permitted during live system operations?
A: Yes, the module supports hot-swapping, allowing replacement of a faulted unit without interrupting controller execution or disconnecting adjacent CEX-Bus modules.
Field Installation Guidelines
Mount the TP860 baseplate securely to the standard DIN rail before sliding the CI860 module onto the CEX-Bus connector chain. Ensure the grounding latch firmly contacts the DIN rail to maintain low-impedance earthing and IP20 ingress protection.
Connect the Ethernet cable using an industrial-grade RJ-45 connector rated for 10/100 Mbit/s communication. Maintain clean cable routing away from heavy inductive loads and high-voltage power lines. Verify that the ambient operating temperature inside the cabinet stays strictly within +5 to +55 deg C to ensure continuous heat dissipation across the enclosure.
