Appendix A Hardware Units CI860 and TP860 – FOUNDATION Fieldbus High Speed Ethernet
3BSE036351-510 A 317
CI860 and TP860 – FOUNDATION Fieldbus High Speed
Ethernet
Key Features
• Provides one Ethernet port, (RJ45 connector
located on the TP860 Baseplate).
• Simple DIN-rail mounting.
• Provides communication with FOUNDATION
Fieldbus High Speed Ethernet devices via Ethernet.
• Pre-set, two-letter Alpha code locking device
installed in unit base prevents mounting of
incompatible components.
• Supports FF HSE redundancy.
• Supports hot swap.
Description
The CI860/TP860 can be used to connect an AC 800M
controller to FOUNDATION Fieldbus High Speed
Ethernet through TCP/IP via Ethernet.
The TP860 Baseplate has one RJ45 Ethernet connector
to connect the unit to the FOUNDATION Fieldbus High
Speed Ethernet.
The baseplate has a code lock, see Table 4 on page 75,
that prevents the installation of an incorrect type of unit onto the TP860 Baseplate.
The CI860 expansion unit contains the CEX-Bus logic, a communication unit and a
DC/DC converter that supplies appropriate voltages from the +24 V supply via the
CEX-Bus. The Ethernet cable must be connected to an Ethernet device.
To operate FOUNDATION Fieldbus H1 devices with the CI860 these H1 devices
must be connected via a FOUNDATION Fieldbus Linking Device (for example LD
800HSE) to adapt them to FOUNDATION Fieldbus High Speed Ethernet.
