Interface to the distributed control system
Connection between the DCS and SIMA² can be made either via a Modbus RTU
line, Modbus TCP/IP or a combination of both protocols. These connections can also
be provided in redundant topology. In this case, the host can exchange data
independently via both cables (by using channels A or B).
For redundant connection to the DCS, SIMA² is equipped with respectively two RJ45
slots or EIA-485 interface boards.

Information
Check configuration! The DCS settings must be performed according to the available
SIMA² configuration.

Fieldbus cable specifications
Fieldbus cables characteristics must be as follows. Stranded in pairs and shielded
copper cables must be used.
Table 12:
Cable recommendation
Only cables complying with the recommendations of EIA-485 specifications should be used for Modbus
wiring.

Redundancy change-over
If an active SIMA² in hot standby version fails, the passive SIMA² automatically takes
over communication. The active SIMA² answers all requests of the DCS and controls
fieldbus communication to the actuators. The passive SIMA² receives simultaneously
all DCS requests without responding. The passive SIMA² monitors the active SIMA²
by means of a redundancy link (synchronisation cable). If the active SIMA² fails, the
passive SIMA² completely takes over all functions and changes into active mode
without change-over delay.
