Features
Modular Redundancy:Allows the system to scale from a single processor up to a Triple Modular Redundant (TMR) setup for maximum availability.
Fault-Tolerant Communication:Provides dedicated, isolated Ethernet and serial paths for each installed processor module to prevent cross-channel interference.
Robust Power Distribution:Features two independent 3-way connectors (PWR-1 and PWR-2) to ensure the system remains powered if one source fails.
Access Protection:Uses a hardware-based Program Enable key to prevent unauthorized application downloads or logic changes.
Inter-Module Connectivity:Connects directly to T9300 I/O base units via an integrated internal bus to manage up to 16 I/O units.
High-Speed Synchronization:Facilitates rapid data exchange between processors to maintain synchronized execution of safety logic.
