1.4 Product Overview

The PACSystems RX3i Ethernet IEC 60870-5-104 Server Module, catalog
number IC695EIS001 implements the IEC communications protocol. It
permits a PACSystems RX3i controller to be connected to an Ethernet
network using a standard TCP/IP connection scheme, allowing an IEC 104
Client to poll data from the Server, as well generate unsolicited
communications from the Server back to the Client.
Two auto-sensing 10BaseT/100BaseTX RJ-45 shielded twisted-pair
Ethernet ports permit direct connection to either a 10BaseT or 100BaseTX
IEEE 802.3 network without an external transceiver. Line, Star and Daisy
Chain topologies are supported.
The RX3i Ethernet IEC 104 Server Module hosts the IEC104 Server side
protocol on a common RX3i ETM001 module hardware platform. Thus,
many of the specifications and behaviors are shared with the ETM001
module including protocol support. IC695EIS001 is an Ethernet-connected
module that fits in the RX3i backplane and permits the RX3i to behave as a
Server on the IEC104 network. The data exchanges between the EIS001
module and IEC104 Client(s) are configurable, using a single COMMREQ
instruction in the ladder logic or Structured Text program.
