A-B Remote I/O Adapter to Honeywell DE Master Communication Module
5606-RIO-DEM
Product Description
The ProLinx family A-B Remote I/O Adapter to Honeywell DE Master communications module (5606-RIO-DEM) creates a powerful connection between devices on a Remote I/O network and Honeywell DE slave devices. The module is a stand-alone DIN-rail mounted protocol gateway that provides one Remote I/O port and eight Honeywell DE Master channels.
The RIO interface is an adapter (slave) which can be connected to a scanner (master) that controls the data transfer. The module also supports limited high speed data transfer via the Input and Output images.
The DEM protocol driver is designed to provide a tightly integrated communications interface between other protocols of the ProLinx platform and the Honeywell DE instruments. Compatible DE devices include a large array of field devices including pressure, temperature, metering, and many other instruments.
Product Applications
The RIO-DEM modules are the ideal solution for the many applications where Remote I/O connectivity can be used to integrate Honeywell DE devices into a system.
The Remote I/O gateway is a powerful module designed with Slave support, enabling easy connection to Rockwell Automation PLCs (CLX, SLC, PLC, CPLX, and similar devices). In combination with the Honeywell DE Master support, the module provides a very powerful interface to the many Honeywell DE slave devices which are in use in the industrial marketplace today. Applications for the module are found in most industries, especially the Manufacturing, Oil and Gas, Electrical Power and Food Processing.
Functional Specifications
Internal Database
The ProLinx module contains an internal database that consists of areas for application data, status information, and configuration information.
The internal database is shared between all ports on the module and is used as a conduit to pass information from a device on one network to one or more devices on another network.
Application Data Area
The data area is used to store and retrieve data by the protocol drivers and for data exchange between protocols. The database is used as a source for write commands to remote devices and holds data collected from the remote devices. Commands defined in the configuration file (stored in the configuration data area) control how the data is to be handled in the database.
Status Data Area
This area is used to store error codes, counters, and port status information for each port.
Configuration Data Area
This area contains module configuration information such as port configuration, network information, and command configuration. This configuration file is downloaded to, or uploaded from, this area.
A-B Remote I/O Adapter Specifications
The RIO interface is an adapter (slave) and is connected to a scanner (master) that controls the data transfer.
As an example, the master/slave relationship can be accomplished using the 460X-RIO-XXX module (adapter/slave unit) with an Allen-Bradley PLC5 (scanner/master unit). Ladder logic must be programmed into a PLC to perform BTR/BTW commands to receive and transmit data between the module and the PLC. The module also supports limited high speed data transfer via the Input and Output images.
