STB Distributed I/O
Solution 0
Open and Modular System
To meet the needs of machine manufacturers and users, automation architectures
have been decentralized while delivering performance close to that of centralized
systems.
Installed as close to the machine as possible, these island architectures reduce the
time and cost of wiring for sensors and actuators, while increasing system
availability.
The Advantys STB distributed I/O system is an open, modular input/output system
and makes it possible to design automation islands managed by a master controller
via a bus or communication network.
This distributed I/O system can be used to connect:
b Motor-starters.
b Variable speed drives.
b Magelis
®
operator interface terminals.
b Qualified third-party products via the CANopen bus: Festo
®
, Parker
®
valves,
IP 67 FTB distributed I/O, Altivar
®
variable speed drives, encoders etc.
Advantys software supports the user from the design phase to the start-up and
maintenance of the system. This unique software covers the Advantys STB, OTB,
FTB and FTM ranges.
The island components are in the form of electronic modules mounted on DIN rails
to create one or more segments in which the power supplies (logic, sensors and
actuators) are distributed automatically.
The Advantys STB I/O family can be divided into 2 groups of modules:
b Basic modules: A full set of economical network modules and interfaces, with
simplified operating modes.
b Standard modules: An extended range of input/output modules, with additional
functions: configurable parameters, extended operating modes.
The basic and standard ranges comprise:
b NIM modules: network interfaces.
b PDM power distribution modules (c 24 V and a 115/220 V).
b Input/output modules:
v Digital I/O (c 24 V and a 115/220 V).
v Analog I/O, 10, 12 and 16 bit-resolution.
v Relay outputs (c 24 V coil and c 24 V or a 115/230 V contact).
b Application-specific I/O module: Counter module.
b Dedicated modules:
v for TeSys
®
Quickfit, TeSys
®
Model U starter-controllers application.
v for Tego
®
Power applications.
b EOS end of segment and BOS beginning of segment modules.
b External equipment support module on CANopen extension.
Basic and standard modules can be combined on the same island. Combining them
in this way allows a wide range of functions as shown in the table on page 12.
The sensors and actuators are connected to the I/O modules via removable screw-
or spring-type connectors.
Advantys STB modules are hot-swappable, provided the network interface modules
are of standard type.
The Advantys STB distributed I/O system features a protection rating of IP 20. For
installations in production workshops, the Advantys STB distributed I/O system must
be incorporated in protective housings with at least an IP 54 rating (in compliance
with IEC 60950 or NEMA 250 standards). See page 103.
