Communication with other systems (e.g., HMI, SCADA, and control systems) can be handled - via MMS or SattBus over Ethernet - via the SattBus fieldbus - via serial channels (RS232 or RS485). The available protocols include 3964R (as client), COMLI, and MMS (SattLink). User-defined protocols can also be used. ## Hardware Up to 16 units can be connected to the Advant Controller 250, one of which is the controller itself, which can be selected from a range of models. The units in the controller system and the I/O adapters of the central I/O system are interconnected via the controller bus. All hardware units are equipped with LED indicators on the front panel, which display signal and error status, etc. Each bus module can accommodate two hardware units. The connection blocks (200-BPP) are mounted on the bus modules, enabling easy signal connection. ### Controller Unit The controller unit is a 32-bit high-performance single-board computer available in different models (PM253, PM254, and PM255). All controller units are equipped with a floating-point processor (FPU) to improve computing performance, as well as RAM memory and a real-time clock (both battery-buffered). In addition, all models are equipped with two serial RS232 channels and a SattBus interface (except PM255, which has only one RS232 channel). ### Connection of Units On the front of the unit, there is a start mode switch for setting different program modes and a reset button for the system. The available controller models differ in terms of performance and memory configuration; further information can be found in the technical data. ### Power Supply Units The power supply units of the Advant Controller 250 use an external 24V DC power supply, which provides isolated internal power for the controller and central I/O system. #### 200-PSMG 200-PSMG is the master power supply unit, which also generates the clock frequency for the controller. The clock frequency is automatically set based on the actual system size. #### 200-PSSG 200-PSSG is a slave power supply unit used in addition to 200-PSMG to improve power supply performance in larger system configurations. ### Communication Interface External communication with the controller is conducted via interface units for Ethernet, SattBus, RS232, RS485, ControlNet, and PROFIBUS-DP. The interface for all communication units is routed via the controller bus. #### 200-CI232 200-CI232 is equipped with two non-isolated, asynchronous, serial RS232 channels with overvoltage protection. Connection is via connectors on the front or terminal blocks. #### 200-CI485G 200-CI485G is equipped with two optically isolated, asynchronous, serial RS232 channels, which are tapped via terminal blocks. Signals are galvanically isolated via optocouplers and converted to RS485 levels in the RS485 interface circuits. All signals are protected against overvoltage. The unit can be used for both half-duplex two-wire connections and full-duplex four-wire connections. An external 24V DC power supply is required for the two channels of the unit. #### 200-CIE 200-CIE is equipped with an Ethernet channel according to IEEE 802.3 and performs all logic operations for communication. The unit has an AUI port for connecting an external Ethernet transceiver (MAU) via a drop cable. The transceiver is powered via the AUI port. 200-CIE requires an external 24V DC power supply. #### 200-CISB Two galvanically isolated SattBus channels with supervisor function are available on the lower terminal block of the 200-CISB unit. Fieldbus communication for each SattBus channel is handled by a dedicated communication processor. #### 200-CICN 200-CICN is an interface for the ControlNet network and is used for connecting the decentralized I/O system. Each 200-CICN unit functions as an I/O scanner for decentralized I/O adapters of type 200-ACN. The decentralized I/O system is connected via coaxial cable or fiber optic cable. 200-CICN is connected to the ControlNet cable system via a 1m drop cable. The unit is galvanically isolated from the ControlNet via a BNC connector on the front. #### 200-CIPB/DP 200-CIPB/DP is an interface for the PROFIBUS-DP fieldbus and is used for connecting the decentralized I/O system. 200-CIPB/DP is a class 1 master unit and functions as an I/O scanner for decentralized I/O adapters of type 200-APB12. The unit is connected to PROFIBUS-DP via a front-mounted connector. ### Empty Unit #### 200-DU The 200-DU empty unit is used in empty bus module slots in the controller system. It prevents mechanical and electrical damage to the controller bus. ### Bus Module #### 200-BPN 200-BPN is used as a bus module for units of the Advant Controller 250. Each module has two slots in which units are secured with two snap locks. The bus module is designed for mounting on DIN rails and can be fastened to the rail with an additional screw for use in environments with strong mechanical loads. A maximum of 4 terminal blocks 200-BPP (2 for each hardware unit) can be mounted on the bus module. Two mechanical rotary switches, each with 8 positions, prevent incorrect hardware units from being inserted and damaging the unit. #### 200-BPP 200-BPP is a 12-pole terminal block for connecting power supply and communication signals to the controller system. If the block is mounted above the hardware unit, the terminals are numbered from 13 to 24; when connected to the bottom, they are numbered from 1 to 12. #### 200-BPT 200-BPT is a terminating resistor pair for terminating the controller bus. ### Cables #### 200-CBA/L260, 200-CBA/L260V These cables connect the controller bus module to the first central I/O adapter. 200-CBA/L260V is used for vertical mounting of the central I/O system. All required mounting parts are included. ### Miscellaneous #### 200-BPF 200-BPF is a bus module connector used to connect two bus modules.
