Foxboro/Systronics Minimote RTU Slave Communications Module

3150-SYS

The 3150-SYS (SLC) Systronics slave module is a single slot solution for the A-B 1746 platforms. By providing configurable access to both ports, this product provides previously unavailable functionality and versatility. Support has been added to the product to support the report by exception capabilities associated with VSAT implementations of the protocol.

Features

Simple to Use

All module setup and operating controls are performed over the backplane through simple ladder logic and data table configuration. The only software necessary is a standard ladder-programming package.

Hands Off Operation

Once the SYS module has been setup for operation, the card provides transparent control and monitoring capabilities. The SYS module, integrated directly into the PLC/SLC rack, forms a tightly integrated and practical solution. Once configured, the module will perform all protocol related functions on a stand-alone basis.

Installation, Set Up and Operation

The ProSoft module installs in any slot in a local rack. The product's capabilities are enabled and controlled with simple ladder logic and data table initialization.

Applications

Applications involving the Foxboro/Systronics slave module can be found in many industrial sectors and in the following applications:

  • Foreign device data concentrator
  • Pipelines
  • Offshore platforms
  • Oil field lease
