Series 500 bases can be connected to a TI545/TI555 PLC system as a remote
I/O base assembly. The TI545/TI555 controller is capable of addressing the
Series 500 base assembly through the RBC (PPX:500–5114–A). See
Appendix D for information about upgrading Series 500 bases.
Using the PPX:505–6860 RS-485/RF Converter the TI545/TI555 controller
can connect to the TI545/TI555 Bases in an RF I/O Channel using the
PPX:500–2114A or the TI505–6850–A RBCs. Refer to the SIMATIC TI505
Redundant I/O Systems User Manual, PPX:505–8125–x for additional
information.
