- Connects Tricon v10.x or earlier controllers to other Tricons and external Ethernet hosts
- Separates controller peer communication on NET 1 from external-host communication on NET 2
- Supports two independent NCMs in one logical slot but does not provide hot-spare operation
Triconex 4329 is a Network Communication Module designed for Tricon v10.x or earlier controller systems.
The NCM provides a dedicated Tricon peer-and-time network through NET 1 and TSAA-based communication with external host applications through NET 2.
Before installation or replacement, verify the complete model, system version, logical-slot plan, assigned network-port role, RG58 cabling, termination, distance, and host application.
Availability, condition, price, and shipping time for Triconex 4329 are confirmed during quotation.

Important Notice: Other accessories, manuals, cables, calibration data, software, etc. are not included with this equipment unless listed in the above stock item description. All prices are shown in USD.
- NET 1 supports peer-to-peer messaging and time synchronization for networks composed only of Tricon controllers
- NET 2 supports TSAA-based open networking to approved external host applications
- The Main Processors typically refresh communication data on the NCM once per scan
- Each network port uses a BNC connector with RG58 50-ohm thin coaxial cable
- A typical direct RG58 connection can extend up to 607 ft (185 m)
- Repeaters and standard thick-net cabling can extend a documented network up to 2.5 miles (4000 m)
- Two 4329 NCMs can occupy one logical slot but operate independently rather than as hot-spare modules
- PASS, FAULT, and ACTIVE indicators report module status while TX and RX report port activity
- The external-transceiver connectors are not used, and the RS-232 connector is marked reserved for future use
- Peer-to-peer messaging and time synchronization between Tricon controllers
- TriStation 1131 engineering communication with a Tricon controller
- External host integration through SOE, OPC Server, DDE Server, or approved user-written applications
