Functions and features
• The AS-i Interbus-S controller integrates 1 or 2 AS-i masters, a mini
controller and an InterBus-S remote bus slave interface
• it controls the data exchange to the sensor/actuator level
• it processes the peripheral data in the integrated processor (signal
preprocessing) and/or communicates with the higher-level control
system (in the gateway mode)
• it works as stand-alone controller with data exchange to the PC
(visualisation)
• it is monitored by the InterBus-S watchdog
• ID code 3 (combined input/output module without PCP channel)
• max. distance between controller and InterBus-S master: according
to InterBus specification for remote bus participants
• length of the process data channel: depends on the controller set-
tings, max. 256 bits
Mounting
Mount the controller onto a 35mm rail. The unit has protection IP20,
therefore it should be mounted in a protected place (e.g. switching
cabinet).
Electrical connection
Disconnect power. Connect the unit according to the terminal
marking. Never connect the minus potentials to each other or
the minus potentials and the PE connection.
Ensure an electrically safe ground connection between the AS-i
controller (PE terminal) and the ground connection of the unit.
After application of the supply voltage all the LEDs and the LED display
are switched on (LED test); then the version numbers of the hardware
and the software are displayed for 1s each on the LED display.
