PlantStruxure is a Schneider Electric program designed to address the key challenges of many different types of users, including plant managers, operations managers, engineers, maintenance teams, and operators, by delivering a system that is scalable, flexible, integrated, and collaborative.
This document presents one of the PlantStruxure features, using Ethernet as the backbone around the Modicon M580 offer to facilitate communications between an M580 and remote sub-rings through (DRSs).
This guide provides detailed information about planning complex M580 architectures, including these:
-
implementation of DRSs to support sub-rings
-
topology rules and recommendations for choosing a complex network configuration
-
system performance and limitations
-
system diagnostics
NOTE: The specific configuration settings contained in this guide are intended to be used for instructional purposes only. The settings required for your specific configuration may differ from the examples presented in this guide.
