Applications

The 560CMR02 Communication Unit is one of the CMU modules of the RTU560 product family.

Its main tasks are

– Managing and controlling the I/O modules via the serial I/O bus interface.

– Read process events from the input modules.

– Send commands to the output modules.

– Communicate with the control system and the local HMI system via the serial interface (RS232) and the Ethernet 10/100BaseT interface.

– Communicates with sub-RTUs, IEDs, or multimeter devices via interface (RS485) and Ethernet interfaces.

– Manages the time base of RTU560 product line stations and synchronizes I/O modules.

– Handles the dialog between the RTU560 product line and a Web browser through the LAN interface.

The board occupies two slots in the RTU560 chassis.

The communication unit handles communication protocols based on Ethernet and UART characters.

The unit is equipped with a battery-buffered real-time clock (RTC).

The unit is available in two versions:

– R0001: with standard network security

– R0002: with security chip with advanced network security features
