1:1 Redundancy for traditional I/O cards: Increased

system availability is easy with S-series traditional I/O cards.

Four traditional I/O card types are available with redundant

terminal blocks for critical field circuits. Simply install a pair

of cards on the prescribed redundant terminal block and the

DeltaV Distributed Control System (DCS) will automatically

recognize them as a redundant pair. There is no configuration

other than to autosense the redundant pair.

Plug-and-play I/O: All S-series traditional I/O components

plug into the I/O interface carrier and are auto sensed by

the controller. There are no addressing switches or jumpers.

Cards can be installed in any order simplifying the I/O

subsystem design. New I/O interfaces are detected by the

system and added to the engineering database automatically.

Additional features can be enabled as needed and downloaded

without disruption to existing I/O communication,

allowing you to install the I/O you need today with the ability to expand tomorrow.
