S800 I/O is a comprehensive and modular process I/O system that communicates with parent controllers either direct connected using the Modulebus or over industry-standard field buses. Thanks to its broad connectivity it fits a wide range of process controllers from ABB and others.
By permitting installation in the field, close to sensors and actuators, S800 I/O reduces the installation cost by reducing the cost of cabling. And thanks to features such as hot swap of modules, on-line reconfiguration and redundancy options, it contributes to keeping production –and thereby profits up.
S100 I/O System
S100 I/O boards are located in I/O subracks, which are integrated with the Advant Controller 450 in the same cabinets and connected to the controller subrack via a bus extension cable (max. Length 12 m (39 ft.). For increased availability, the S100 I/O bus extension can be doubled (redundancy). S100 I/O subracks can also be distributed via an optical bus extension (max. Length 500 m (155 ft.).
S800 I/O System
The distributed S800 I/O modules communicate with the Advant Controller 450 over the Advant Fieldbus 100, via the CI522A interface module. The fieldbus communication between the controller and the modulebus in the S800 I/O station can be doubled (redundancy).

The time tagging of digital input signals can be done in the system software of the controller or on certain digital input (DI) modules belonging to S100 I/O or S800 I/O. Time tagging on a DI module results in a high time accuracy. Signals created in AMPL can also be time-tagged, but with an accuracy corresponding to the PC program cycle time.
With its cost-effective design and just 59 mm depth installation, S800L I/O modules are the perfect choice for PLC applications. Robust me
chanics, one-piece handling, easy mounting and smart connections save your time in all phases of installation. The comprehensive S800 I/O system
consists of more than 40 different module types to respond to every need. Classification of corrosive protection, electrical safety, hazardous location and marine certification brings the possibility to install S800 I/O in a wide variety of applications. S800 I/O is installed with more than 40 million channels worldwide.
