S5-arc | | | Description Board inserted in a Siemens S5 Rack, allows the PLC to exchange data with the whole Plant, communicating through the ARCnet deterministic LAN. | Configuration: | Slave | Bus: | ARCnet, VME, PCI, Siemens S5 | Technology: | | Related Main Brands: | Siemens | Notes: | The board executes the job to communicate and manage data transmission and allocation, avoiding that the Host CPU wastes time & power in low level (but high speed and many data) tasks. 1 or more μP and RealTime Firmware have been used. Insulated or optoinsulated signals allow communication between not electrical-compatible systems and longer distances. New Fiber Optic communication media have been used, to improve reliability and decrease attenuation. |
