GPRS/SMS |
Enable the I-8212W (2G/3G) card allowing short messages to be sent/received to/from or to access a dial up connection to link to the Internet and using a GPRS connection to send an email or communicate with remote stations using the “FTP Client” (FAQ-151) or the “TCP Client”/”UDP Server”/”UDP Client” (FAQ-143) protocols. |
SQL Client |
Support for the SQL Client function that allows data to be written (or read from) a Microsoft SQL Server (2000 SP3, 2005, 2008). |
Hot-Swap and Redundant System |
This redundant system has setup two “Active IP” address point to the active LAN1 and LAN2 ports always. One or more PC/HMI/SCADA can communicate with this redundant system via one of the two given active IP. So the PC/HMI/SCADA can access to the system easily without any notice about which PAC is currently active.
Moreover, the new redundant system can integrate with the RU-87P4/87P8 Expansion Unit plus the I-87K high-profile I/O cards to support the hot-swap application. If the I/O card is damaged, the maintenance person just takes one good-card with same model number to hot-swap the damaged one without stopping this redundant system. (FAQ-138 and FAQ-125) |
CAN/CANopen |
COM2 and COM4 ~ 33 (XP-8047-CE6 plus COM1) (*) can connect to one I-7530 (converter: RS-232 to CAN) to support CAN/CANopen devices and sensors. One PAC supports a max. of 32 RS-232 ports to connect a max. of 32 I-7530. (FAQ-086) |
