Functional Description
IS230TNCIH6C is a DIN-Rail Input Module manufactured and designed by General Electric. It is a part of the Mark VIe Control System. It is compatibile with two main communication types- Unit Data Highway (UDH) and IONet. UDH is an Ethernet-based Local Area Network (LAN) communication, while IONet provides an alternative option for seamless data exchange and control within the system. This flexibility ensures that the module can integrate into various communication architectures, enabling efficient data transfer and control over connected devices.
Features
- The module is engineered to withstand diverse environmental conditions, as evidenced by its impressive humidity tolerance of 5-95% non-condensing. This feature ensures reliable operation even in challenging and humid industrial environments, making it suitable for a wide range of applications across different industries.
- In terms of redundancy, the module offers multiple options to suit different system architectures. It supports three redundancy types: Simplex, Dual, and Triple Modular Redundancy (TMR). In a Simplex system, the board operates as a standalone unit, fulfilling control and monitoring functions independently. In Dual and TMR configurations, the module works in conjunction with other redundant components to provide enhanced fault tolerance and system reliability. This adaptability allows the component to cater to diverse system requirements and ensure uninterrupted operations in critical processes.
- The module undergoes rigorous testing and adheres to industry standards, ensuring consistent and reliable performance under demanding conditions. Its robust design and durable construction ensure longevity and minimal maintenance, reducing downtime and optimizing productivity in industrial settings.
- It is easy to integrate into existing control systems, offering simple installation procedures and comprehensive documentation. Its compact DIN-Rail form factor makes it suitable for space-constrained installations, providing ease of deployment in control cabinets and enclosures.
Control Operator Interface
- The COI (Custom Operator Interface) is a specialized system comprising a set of product and application specific operator displays. These displays run on a compact panel computer, equipped with either a 10.4-inch or 12.1-inch touch screen, and hosting an embedded Windows operating system. This configuration allows the COI to offer a tailored and streamlined Human-Machine Interface (HMI) solution, optimized for specific applications where the full capability of a CIMPLICITY HMI may not be necessary.
- The embedded Windows operating system is carefully designed to include only the components essential for the specific application, resulting in a significantly reduced footprint compared to a standard Windows installation. By using only the required components, the COI benefits from all the power and development advantages of a Windows operating system while efficiently utilizing system resources. This approach enhances the performance and responsiveness of the COI, making it an ideal choice for applications with resource constraints.
- The COI's embedded Windows operating system also provides a familiar and user-friendly interface for operators, leveraging the intuitiveness of Windows-based systems. Operators can interact with the system using the touch screen, simplifying the overall user experience and reducing the learning curve.
- To create, install, or modify the content on the COI, the ToolboxST is used. The ToolboxST is a comprehensive development tool that allows engineers and system integrators to tailor the operator displays and functionality according to specific application requirements. The ToolboxST offers a wide range of customization options, enabling the creation of a user interface perfectly aligned with the application's needs.
