Different modes of communication can be used with Premium and Atrium PLCs:
-
terminal port communication:
-
on TSX P57/TSX H57 Premium Processors: these have two terminal ports (TER) and (AUX), a non-insulated RS 485 serial link, Uni-Telway or character mode protocol,
-
on a TSX PCI 57 Atrium processor: these have one terminal port (TER), a non-insulated RS 485 serial link, Uni-Telway or character mode protocol,
-
master Fipio communication, built-in to some processors,
-
Ethernet communication, built-in to some processors,
-
communication via the USB port, built-in to some processors,
-
communication by means of PCMCIA cards which can be built into the processor or the application-specific communication module TSX SCY 21601: the processors and the application-specific communication module TSX SCY 21601 have a slot which is used for accommodating an extended type III PCMCIA communication card,
-
communication via application-specific modules:
-
TSX SCY 21601 module,
-
TSX ETY 110 module.
The following table illustrates the different modes of communication:
