Description
The IC695CPE310-ABAB has a 1.1 GHz Atom processor and 10 MB of memory. Its embedded Ethernet interface can accommodate two connections with rated speeds of 10Mb/s and 100Mb/s. It also has RS-485 and RS-232 serial ports. This module supports a maximum of 512 program blocks, with each block reaching a maximum of 128 KB. IC695CPE310-ABAB understands Modbus RTU Slave, SNP, and serial I/O protocols, while communicating with Human Machine Interface (HMI) devices using the SNP protocol.
You can program IC695CPE310-ABAB using ladder diagram, structured text, C, or functional block diagram programming languages. When the device is powered on, the LED indicator light with a label on the device casing can be green, red, off, or flashing. This makes troubleshooting efficient and allows you to verify system status at a glance.
IC695CPE310-ABAB can be installed in any pair of slots in the main RX3i controller rack, except for the two highest numbered slots.
The processor in IC695CPE310-ABAB is approximately three times faster than the 300 MHz Celeron processor in other similar models IC695CPE310-ABAB. You can upgrade from CPU310 to CPE310 without changing the old version of PME software. Please note that if you decide to upgrade from CPU310 to CPE310, the RS-232 port on CPE310 will not provide 5V power on pin 5.

The information system requires real-time data from DCS. Due to the closed operator station of the old DCS and the inability of the human-machine interface to provide real-time data, open alternative operator stations emerged in the late 1990s. The monitoring software iFIX and INTOUCH are two sets of software. They have developed many types of suites on the network, such as HISTORIAN, INSQL, and other real-time databases. They are connected to relational databases and have a lower price than PI and IP.21 real-time databases. In addition, there is also the Web in the suite, which provides great convenience for users to remotely monitor. In the late 1990s, the application of these two software as human-machine interfaces in programmable logic (PLC) systems was already very common, as early PLCs only had on-off control, while later PLCs in the 1990s could also achieve closed-loop control of analog quantities.
Without CRT based display components, it would be extremely inconvenient. At the same time, there are not many PLC manufacturers developing their own monitoring software. Even if there are, users still tend to choose these two universal software. When PLC is used to form a system, most of them use Ifix and intouch software. Later, some people also used Citect. Due to the relatively small number of driver software developed by Citect software, it is relatively rare to use Citect as an alternative operating station for DCS. IFIX and intouch have many DCS driver software, and with a little development, they can become alternative operator stations for DCS. The advantage of replacing operator stations is that they are open and can be used as online kits or as “middleware”. With interfaces with many other software, the design of information systems is more convenient, and the situation of crashes is also better.
