Explanation

The following electronic modules are the basic components of the AC500 system:
•
CPUs of three different performance classes
•
Couplers for various bus systems: Fieldbus systems PROFIBUS DP, CANopen, DeviceNet; Ethernet
couplers.
Central expansion: One CPU supports direct connection of up to seven S500 FBP system I/O devices.
Decentralized expansion: Using the DC505 FBP interface module (for fieldbus systems PROFIBUS DP,
CANopen, DeviceNet, Modbus RTU), up to seven S500 FBP system I/O devices can be connected (with
a maximum of four analog modules).
Mechanical mounting of the electronic modules is done using CPU terminal bases (for the CPU and the
couplers) and I/O terminal units (for the I/O modules), designed for snap-on mounting on a DIN rail or for
screw-mounting on a mounting panel.
