Distributed / AS-Interface/ Logic Controller ... - Schneider Electric

Communication
General
This architecture uses 2 different communication networks:
SoMachine protocol
AS-Interface
The described architecture includes two different communication busses. The AS-Interface
includes the Modicon M238 Logic controller with AS-Interface Master, Advantys ASI-I/O +
FTB I/O-Islands and TeSysU motor starters. All the devices and the I/O-Islands are
connected to the AS-Interface via AS-Interface TAPs.
The Modicon M238 Logic controller and the Magelis HMI communicate via SoMachine
protocol on RS485. The download from the PC to the M238 and to the HMI is done with a
single connection. The PC has to be connected to the HMI and this connection is also
used to send data to the M238.
PC ↔ XBTGT ↔ M238
The download direction
is from the PC to the
HMI and via the HMI to
the M238.
Note:
For a direct connection
of the PC to the
controller the cable
TCSXCNAMUM3P can
be used.
