Analog Input/Digital Input Module  and Baseplates

Each Analog Input/Digital Input (AI/DI)  Module has three isolated channels  which independently process analog and  digital inputs from field devices. Each  channel transmits the data to the MP  associated with the channel. The MPs  vote the data before passing it to the  application.

I/O Extender Modules

I/O Extender Module Kits are used to  carry I/O messages from one I/O column  to another and to provide logic power  terminals for each I/O column.

Each CM network port supports these  protocols: 

• TSAA (UDP/IP) 

• TSAA with IP Multicast (UDP/IP) 

• TriStation 

• Peer-to-Peer (UDP/IP) 

• Peer-to-Peer (DLC) 

• Modbus Master or Slave (TCP) 

• Triconex Time Synchronization via  UDP/IP 

• SNTP Triconex Time  Synchronization
