automation platform
processors manage the entire PLC station comprising discrete I/O modules,
Preventa safety modules, analog I/O modules, and application-specific modules,
which can be distributed over one or more racks connected via Bus X or a fieldbus
TSX P57 processors
The types of processor available are divided into different capacities according to
memory, in-rack I/O, communication, and processing speed. Depending on the model:
b
4
to 16 racks
b
512
to 2040 discrete I/O
b
24
to 256 analog I/O
b
8
to 64 application-specific channels. Each application-specific module (counter,
motion control, serial link or weighing) accounts for 1 or more application-specific
channels.
b
1
to 4 networks (Ethernet Modbus/TCP, Fipway, Ethway, Modbus Plus), 2 to
8
AS-Interface sensor/actuator buses, 1 to 2 fieldbuses (CANopen, I

,
Profibus DP), 0 or 1 Fipio fieldbus, serial links (Modbus, Uni-Telway)
b
10
to 20 process control channels
Integrated communication
Depending on the model, Premium processors include:
b
A 10 or 100 Mbit/s Ethernet Modbus/TCP port (RJ45 connection)
b
A 1 Mbit/s Fipio bus link (bus manager)
b
Communication via 2 terminal ports (TER and AUX) using Uni-Telway or character
mode protocol (typically a 19 or 115 Kbit/s programming terminal and an operator
dialogue terminal)
Each processor has a slot for a type III PCMCIA card, which can accommodate a
network card (Fipway, Modbus Plus), bus (CANopen
(1)
,
Fipio Agent) or serial links
(
Modbus, Uni-Telway, character mode).
Application design and installation
Different software licences are available for PL7 Junior/Pro version V4.5 depending
on requirements:
b
Single-station
b
Multistation in the form of independent local stations (Junior/Pro), remote stations
connected to a server via a network (Pro OpenTeam for 3 to 10 stations or
Pro OpenSite for more than 10 stations).
These licences are compatible with PC terminals running Windows 2000 Professional
or Windows XP operating systems.
Configurations with old generation processors
The
TSX P57 353LAM
processor can be used as a replacement for old version

single-format processors and for

Atrium slot PLCs. Replacement of these processors or slot-PLCs requires
reconfiguration of the PLC with the
TSX P57 353LAM
,
but no modification of the
application program is required. It may be necessary to update the PL7 Pro software
(
TLX RCD PL7P P45M
).
Migration of Premium processors
Some Premium
TSX P57
pp

M/3AM
processors that are compatible with
PL7 software can be migrated for compatibility with Unity Pro software without any
need for hardware modifications. This migration from PL7 to Unity Pro is achieved by
means of the following software updates:
b
Processor operating system
b
Integrated Ethernet TCP/IP port operating system
This update is carried out using the OS-Loader tool, included in the Unity Pro
software (see page 6/13). Once migrated, PL7 processors are equivalent to
corresponding Unity processors.
The following PL7 processors can be migrated to Unity Pro (software migration):
b
TSX 57 2
p
:
TSX P57 203M/253M/2623M
become
TSX P57 204M/254M/2634M
respectively.
b
TSX 57 3
p
:
TSX P57 303M/353M/3623AM
become
TSX P7 304M/354M/3634M
respectively (migration supported by Unity Pro version
u
3.0).
Note:
Processor migration requires use of the new PCMCIAmemory references
TSX MRP P/C
and
TSX MFP P/C
.
See the equivalence table on page 1/20.
