Features:
- Interface Between RS-485 Field Devices and Industrial Control System Backplane
- Combines Capability of Isolated Serial Communication with Dual-Port Network Support
- Operates in Conjunction with M Series and Standard Industrial Control Monitors
The CAN-ARM-MSC 2558992-1 operates as the isolated RS-485 communication interface in an industrial control rack, providing reliable half-duplex serial connectivity to all modules within the system. It continuously manages bidirectional data transmission through two 2-wire RS-485 ports and distributes communication signals through the rack backplane to support steady state operation of all monitors and modules. Seamless device integration is standard with the CAN-ARM-MSC 2558992-1, however using the dual-port configuration will allow simultaneous connection to multiple field devices in the event of expanded network requirements. The CAN-ARM-MSC 2558992-1 has made improvements in several areas over previous communication board designs in addition to incorporating galvanic isolation capability within the industrial control rack.
The CAN-ARM-MSC 2558992-1 provides essential communication functions common to the entire rack, and is a critical component of the data transmission path, directly affecting the proper, normal operation of the overall monitor system. One CAN-ARM-MSC 2558992-1 communication board is required per rack depending on the desired connectivity level. The CAN-ARM-MSC 2558992-1 occupies only a single slot in the rack and is always located in the dedicated communication board slots.
For Dual-Port Communication applications, the CAN-ARM-MSC 2558992-1 utilizes both RS-485 ports installed in the isolated terminal connector. In addition to standard single-port operation, the dual-port configuration also performs simultaneous multi-device communication. The CAN-ARM-MSC 2558992-1 dual-port configuration executes data transmission using the internal circuitry specified in the RS-485 communication options. Using this method, the dual-port system continually monitors the integrity of both communication channels. If the system detects that one RS-485 port is no longer providing stable signal transmission (outside configured signal/tolerance levels), it will automatically maintain operation through the secondary port and ensure continuous data flow in the industrial network.
The CAN-ARM-MSC 2558992-1 HONEYWELL Communication Board may still be available for purchase and support from Apter Power beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).
