Features of the Hot Standby CPU Redundancy Product

HBumpless switching h Synchronized CPUs

h 20 millisecond scan extension (nominal). This figure is variable, depending on amount of data transferred.

h One scan switching (in most cases) h Configurable backup data size

HNo single point of failure (excludingGeniusI/O)

HRedundant backup communications

HOn±line repair of failed component

HOn±line programming

HSame or different programs in Primary and Secondary units

HRedundancy CPU has a 16 MHz microprocessor, configurable memory and configurable addressing capacity

HRedundancy Communications Module

h Manual pushbutton switch for switching control between active and backup CPUs

h Five Status LEDs

±Board OK

±Local System Ready

±Local System Active

±Remote System Ready

±Remote System Active

HStatus Bits (%S) reflect redundancy status of Primary/Secondary units

HProgram control switching

HMemory parity and checksums

HCommon I/O on Genius bus

HBackground Diagnostics

±Processor test

±PLC CPU EPROM CRC Validation

±User program checksumming

±Time-of-Day/ElapsedTime Clock test

HMemory Protect Keyswitch

Benefits of the Hot Standby CPU Redundancy Product

Implementation of the Hot Standby CPU Redundancy product provides you with a method of ensuring that a critical control system or process is uninterrupted in the event of a failure of any single component (excluding I/O) of the PLC system.
