The TSX SCY 11601/21601 modules are installed in a Premium/Atrium PLC station rack.
These are included in an X-Way network architecture based on 7 Series, Micro, Premium and Atrium PLCs.
The TSX SCY 11601 communication module adds the following features to a PLC station:
The TSX SCY 21601 communication module adds the following features to a PLC station:
The TSX SCY 11601/21601 modules can be installed in any available slot in a Premium/Atrium PLC station rack.
A TSX SCY 11601 module supports a maximum of 1 discrete RS 485 type communication channel built into the module.
A TSX SCY 21601 module supports a maximum of two discrete communication channels:
Since the maximum number of discrete channels managed by a PLC station is related to the type of processor installed, the number of TSX SCY 11601 or TSX SCY 21601 modules in a station will therefore rely on:
-
type of processor installed
-
number of discrete channels already used, other than communication channels
Consequently, the user must perform a global memory usage on his/her PLC station in order to know how many discrete channels are already in use, and thus determine the number of TSX SCY 11601 or TSX SCY 21601 modules which may be used.
NOTE: Discrete channel recognition is defined in the
Premium/
Atrium PLC installation Manual.
TSX SCY 11601/21601 modules can be connected or disconnected whilst the power is on. These devices do not have a memory save function.
When one of the two modules is disconnected from the rack, its internal memory is wiped. The module goes through an initialization phase once it is reconnected.
A TSX SCY 21601 module which has a PCMCIA card installed may be disconnected when the power is on.
NOTE: Conversely, PCMCIA cards, used in TSX SCY 21601 may not be disconnected while the power is on.
