ABB INNIS01 Symphony Network Interface Slave Module

Description

ABB INNIS01 Symphony Network Interface Slave Module is a specialized communication component designed to enable process control units to access the INFI-NET high-speed serial data highway. Its core function is to provide control modules within process control units with connectivity to the INFI-NET communication system by pairing with a Network Processing Module (NPM), facilitating reliable data exchange between process control units and the broader INFI-NET network.

Key features include a microprocessor-based communication circuit that supports stable data transmission, and two locking screws for secure attachment to module mounting units. The front panel is equipped with 16 LEDs that display error codes and event/error counts, simplifying real-time status monitoring and fault troubleshooting. The module supports multiple network interface types, including Ethernet, with compatibility for varying Ethernet speeds and communication protocols, and can connect to network switches or routers via wired or wireless means. It requires configuration of network addresses, communication parameters, and security settings to ensure network compatibility. Additionally, it supports hardware redundancy when paired with INNP11 NPM modules, with two slave and two processing modules in redundant setups, allowing standby units to activate automatically if primary modules fail, ensuring uninterrupted operation.
