Features and benefits

• MB 300 network redundancy

• Clock synchronization

• DataSet communication

• Hot swap

• Per to peer communication

The MasterBus 300 (MB300) communication protocol used in

communication between controllers, and operator stations in

installations based on Advant OCS with Master software is also

implemented in the System 800xA controller AC 800M. MB 300

communication is realized in AC 800M by communication

interface CI855. which is connected to the CEX-Bus through a

baseplate.

The baseplate, TP853. houses RJ45 connectors for two Ethernet

ports, for network redundancy and provides a simple DIN-rail

mounting.

A key benefit of the CI855 interface is the possibility of having

peer-to-peer communication between new plant sections with

System 800xA using the AC 800M controller and existing sections

with MB 300-based controllers like Advant Controller 410. Advant

Controller 450. and MasterPiece 200/1.
