Part of the company's PlantStruxure collaborative and integrated automation architecture, this solution was created to ensure high operational availability of processes and improve data flow - key issues for most industrial control systems today. With the additional flexibility of Ethernet, it is free of the limitations of traditional proprietary network topologies. The network design is made easier with optimally sized modular drops and six times more I/O capacity per I/O drop when compared to a well established proprietary S908 network. Network processes remain optimized at every stage of network development. Operators can stay connected remotely through the embedded service ports on the CRA/CRP modules. With the embedded ports, they will also have the ability to optimize their architecture by connecting an HMI screen on a remote I/O drop. Additionally, with Unity Pro software, operators can easily perform maintenance or modification of their installation, including adding I/O modules or additional racks of I/O without stopping the CPU.
