1 Unlock the full potential of your automation architecture PlantStruxure Automation control solutions based on Modicon Quantum Ethernet I/O Make the most of your energy SM

2 The improved Modicon Quantum controller The new Modicon Quantum Ethernet I/O (QEIO) offer is designed to meet the requirements of both the industrial automation and process industries. An integral part of the PlantStruxure architecture, Modicon Quantum Ethernet I/O supports remote I/O architectures that meet your physical requirements today, and is scalable and flexible enough to adapt to future modifications of your installation. PlantStruxure is a collaborative architecture that allows industrial companies to meet their automation needs and, at the same time, deliver on growing energy management requirements. In a single environment, measured energy and process data can be analyzed and used to yield a holistically optimized plant. PlantStruxure is not only easy to engineer and simple to maintain, it delivers a clear picture of what is happening in your process. It integrates easily with third party devices and provides added value in the form of historian and manufacturing execution system functionalities. In short, PlantStruxure helps you drive increased return on assets and meets your application needs. Unity Pro Unity Pro, a unique configuration software for your Modicon PAC architecture Compatible with high end Modicon Quantum controller Controllers Ethernet Ethernet, the backbone of PlantStruxure: the choice of a standard and industrial network DIO Ring Ring DIO Cloud Ring Remote I/Os Remote I/Os ring + distributed I/Os on the same cable Distributed I/Os Separated distributed I/Os and remote I/Os 2

3 Standard Available Scalable Simple Ethernet is an industrial standard. EtherNet/IP (promoted by Open Device Vendor Association) has been chosen for QEIO as a long-lasting universal standard. Standard network infrastructure devices, tools, and network analyzers simplify maintenance and training. The requirement for many systems today is high operational availability of your process. QEIO solutions can continue to operate in the event of a loss of connection at a single device, keeping your process running with minimal disruption. When your application evolves, the QEIO solution grows alongside it, adapting to the life cycle of your installation without extensive modifications. The addition of sensors/actuators and other devices is simplified due to the versatility of Modicon Quantum Ethernet I/O. All the I/Os are managed by one single configuration software Unity Pro. Modicon Quantum Ethernet Remote I/O (QEIO) Compatible with your installed systems QEIO uses the same standard I/O modules as existing Quantum S908 systems, allowing upgrade solutions with a lower cost. Head End adaptor 140 CRP Front display for diagnostics in compliance with ODVA standard Port to link to Ethernet module to mix distributed I/O (DIO) and remote I/O () on the same cable Service port to connect PC, local HMI or distributed I/O devices 2 ports for self-healing daisy chain loop Dual ring switch (DRS) ConneXium extended managed switch DRS 8 ports (TCSESM083F23F1) 8 copper DRS 8 ports (TCSESM063F2CU1) 6 copper 2 fiber optic multimode - Maximum distance up to 2 km Drop adaptor 140 CRA Rotary switches to configure drop address Service port to connect a PC, local HMI or distributed I/O cloud 2 ports for self-healing daisy chain loop DRS 8 ports (TCSESM063F2CS1) 6 copper 2 fiber optic single mode - Maximum distance up to 15 km Predefined, tested, and validated configurations to simplify configuration and reduce time for development and implementation 3

4 Enjoy flexibility and high perfo The QEIO solution is based on the existing Modicon Quantum offer. All the I/O modules are the same. The system is flexible to allow I/O architectures to be designed to meet the requirements of a wide range of control applications. The choice of an I/O bus architecture based on Ethernet removes the limitations of traditional, proprietary network topologies while offering flexibility and high level of performance. Flexible > For the design of your architecture Choice of topologies: Remote I/O: daisy chain loop Distributed I/O: ring, star and bus > For the connection of your instrumentation Easy addition of instrumentation with FDT/DTM technology. C R P N O E Main ring DRS Easy integration of third-party devices in DIO DRS PRM Subring Subring DIO cloud > For remote I/O drops Up to 31 drops of QEIO. Each drop can be 1 or 2 racks, each rack 4 to 16 slots. Future evolution of QEIO will allow Modicon M340 PLCs to be used as I/O drops to further expand the flexibility. You didn t plan a future extension of distributed I/O? No need to add cables! Just connect your new distributed I/O island to the existing QEIO network via service port or switch! It is possible to mix distributed I/O and remote I/O on the same media while maintaining the deterministic response of the remote I/O. Size rack flexible DRS Additional rack possible in a drop Easy addition of a device as DIO on service port of CRA module without extra cost of cabling DIO > For the online modification of your installation Add an I/O module without stopping your process using the Change Configuration on the Fly (CCOTF) function of Unity Pro. Benefit from the continuity of communication with your SCADA due to the OPC Factory Server during the online changes. 4
