CI862 and TP862 - TRIO/Genius Interface Appendix A Hardware Units
326 3BSE036351-510 A
CI862 contains the Coldfire MCF5307 Microcontroller with Flash memory, RAM,
LED indicators, power supply, and CEX-Bus interface with dual port memory,
bridged to a GE/Fanuc µGenie Communication Module. The µGenie handles all
data transfer between the CI862 Carrier module and the TRIO FIELD BUS,
allowing the Carrier CPU to control the remote I/O.
Indicators
LED indicators for R(un), F(ault), Communication Error, Primary (Bus Master), and
Dual (redundancy)
