Multiprocessor Operation/Coordinators

Design

The COR 923C is designed as a plug-in PCB in double Eurocard format.

 

Two 48-way Series 2 blade connectors serve to connect the module to the S5

 

bus in the subrack.

 

The front plate width is 1 1/3 standard plug-in stations.

 

A mode switch with three settings is fitted in the front plate for other

 

operator functions.

 

Faults are indicated by five small red LEDs.

 

There is a recess with cover in the upper third of the front plate. By removing

 

the cover, you can operate the DIL switches to set parameters for the module.

 

You can connect the COR 923C via a 15-pin front connector to a

 

programmer, OP, operator control panel or the CP 530 and CP 143.

Principle of

The COR 923C cyclically allocates a bus enable signal to each of the two to

Operation

four CPUs in the S5-135U/155U PLC. Only during this time can the relevant

 

CPU utilize the common S5 bus.

 

The assignment of bus enable signals takes place in time-division multiplex

 

operation. On the COR 923C, you set the number of CPUs with DIL

 

switches. The enable time for access to the S5 bus is preset at 2 ms for all

 

CPUs. If the bus enable signal has been emitted by the coordinator for a

 

CPU, this CPU can extend the enable time with the bus lock signal. However,

 

the user has no influence on this.

 

The bus enable assignment sequence begins with CPU 1 after the Reset

 

signal is removed by the power supply, and enables the CPUs in the

 

following order according to the preset number of CPUs:

 

CPU 1, CPU 2, CPU 3, CPU 4, CPU 1, CPU 2 etc. (see Figure 6-7)
