ABB AC 800F Engineering Manual page 10

Process Station
The AC 800F consists of:
• the housing with CPU board and module slots,
• the power supply module,
• at least one Ethernet module,
• a maximum of four fieldbus modules
There are different variants of the fieldbus modules for:
Profibus DP
Modbus
CAN
The following modules are currently available for the ABB FieldController 800 :
• Power supply modules
SA 801F : input voltages from 115 ... 230 V AC
SD 802F : redundant DC voltage 24 V DC
• Ethernet modules
EI 801F : 10Base2 module (Cheapernet) for ThinCoax type coax. cable
EI 802F : AUI module for connecting transceivers for 10Base5, 10Base2, 10BaseT,
10BaseFL or star coupler units
• EI 803F : 10/100BaseTP module for Shielded Twisted Pair cables
• Fieldbus modules
FI 830F : Profibus DP module for direct operation of Profibus field devices
FI 820F : Serial module, 2 channels, protocols available : MODBUS, Sartorius scale proto-
col, continuously being expanded
FI 810F : CAN module, 3 channels, protocols available : DigiNet P
• AM 801F : Battery module for redundant battery back-up
The FieldController fieldbus modules are driven by the CPU board in the AC 800F housing. The
data transmitted by the fieldbus modules is processed according to the configured link modules
and then transferred to the operator station via the Ethernet modules and the DigiNet S system
bus. The processing results are then output via the fieldbus modules and transferred to the field-
bus devices.
By means of CAN module FI 810F the FieldController can use the Freelance 2000 I/O units.
Process station bus (CAN) links the I/O units to the FieldController. A maximum of five I/O units
can be connected to the FI 810F module.
When the FieldController is fully equipped (as described here), 45 slots are available in the I/O
units for accommodating Freelance 2000 I/O modules. The three FieldController fieldbus slots
remaining can be used for connecting other fieldbusses.
