FAQS

The following is a list of questions commonly asked by our customers. Please contact us if you have a question about our process that is not answered below.
Can CI526V1 replace CI526 without changing the fieldbus design?
Not automatically. CI526V1 is the documented replacement, but verify ISA host support, drivers, modem cables, station configuration and the media-redundancy design before migration.
Which external hardware is required to connect CI526 to Advant Fieldbus 100?
Select the documented modem for the installed medium and provide its matching cable, mounting plate and power supply; these items are not part of the CI526 interface board.
Does using two CI526 connectors create a redundant interface pair?
No. X8 and X9 support single or redundant bus cabling through external modems; that media redundancy is not the same as a primary/backup pair of communication-interface boards.
Why can a replacement PC detect CI526 but fail to exchange CDPs?
Check ISA resources, board strappings, the supported AC 100 OPC Server software and driver, station address, bus-master configuration, modem power, cable assignment and network termination.
Can CI526 act as the Advant Fieldbus 100 bus master?
Yes, when configured for that role. Confirm that the network contains one valid bus-administration design and that station addresses and timing settings do not conflict.
What should be archived before servicing CI526?
Archive OPC configuration, all CDP mappings, station and bus-master settings, time-sync role, ISA resource settings, modem type, cable routing and current network diagnostics.
How should CI526 be validated after installation?
Verify host detection and modem power, then confirm bus participation, bidirectional CDP transfer, operator-station data quality, time synchronization and both media paths where redundancy is used.
