- Use CI526 only in the documented IBM PC AT ISA and AC 100 OPC Server architecture
- Match each Advant Fieldbus 100 medium to its external modem, power supply and cable
- Preserve CDP mappings, station identity, bus-master role and time-synchronization settings before removal
CI526 is an ABB Advant Fieldbus 100 ISA communication interface for the Advant Fieldbus 100 platform.
ABB CI526 is a full-length ISA communication interface that connects an AC 100 OPC Server personal computer to Advant Fieldbus 100 for operator-station, CDP, bus-administration and time-synchronization functions. CI526 identifies the legacy ISA interface board; external modems, modem power supply, mounting plate and connection cables are separate hardware, and CI526V1 is a later replacement interface rather than an alias.
Before installation or replacement, verify the complete nameplate, compatible companion hardware, wiring or network design, saved configuration and commissioning plan.
Availability, condition, price, and shipping time for CI526 are confirmed during quotation.
