Communication Features of HIQuad X

A new communication module F-COM 01 comes included with HIQuad X. It supports the consistent

HIMA security concept. With HIQuad X, you have new opportunities as well as well-known existing

communication paths. Additionally, HIQuad X increases the availability of the communication to

redundant third-party systems.

You can connect HIQuad X systems to each other via the HIMA safety protocol SafeEthernet. Also,

HIMax, HIMatrix systems and RIOs can be combined safely. To establish a safety-related connection to

existing HIQuad installations, the protocol HIPRO-S V2 is implemented in HIQuad X.

• 2 Ethernet interfaces on F-CPU 01 and F-COM 01.

• Interference-free, peer-to-peer connections between each F-CPU 01 and each of the up to

• 10x F-COM 01 modules.

• The whole IP address range can be used.

• Enhanced communication options such as subnet masks and virtual LAN to segregate nets can

be programmed.

• One serial interface per F-COM 01.
