C300 Secondary Controller Installation
Creating a C300 Controller redundant pair is as simple as installing a second controller in
the control hardware cabinet. See
cable connections.
Prerequisites
Before you install the C300 Controller you should have:
A control cabinet installed with appropriate carrier hardware for mounting Series C
•
control hardware.
A Series C power supply and optional battery backup hardware installed in the
•
cabinet.
An installed pair of Control Firewall (CF9) assemblies.
•
The necessary parts for installing C300 Controller to the control system. See Series
•
C System Cabling in the Control Hardware Planning Guide for hardware details.
Parts include:
a C300 Controller assembly (controller module with IOTA board and mounting
−
hardware)
STP Cat5 Redundancy Cable (Orange cable)
−
2 STP Cat5 Ethernet cables (one Yellow cable, one Green cable)
−
2 or 4 IOLink cable assemblies for connecting on-board IO Link interface if the
−
controller is supporting Series C I/O or Process Manager IO modules.
Ensure the cabinet enclosure is connected to a protective earth ground using #8
•
AWG solid copper wire. There should be metal to metal contact between the
grounding bus bar and the enclosure as well as the carrier.
Considerations
The secondary controller should be installed in the same cabinet as the primary
•
controller.
The secondary controller may be installed on a separate carrier from the primary
•
controller.
