Easy engineering

The electronic configuration files that are

provided by ABB for different fieldbus systems

make it easy to configure the S500 remote I/O

station in your engineering tool. The files such as

GSD and GSDML are available for download at

www.abb.com/plc. For Modbus TCP remote I/O

stations a dedicated configurator is included in

Automation Builder and for larger applications a

Bulk Data Manager tool can be used.

The availability of different fieldbus communi

cation interfaces makes it easy to use S500 I/O

modules as remote I/O for nearly any PLC and

PC. The S500 remote I/O station consists of a

communication interface and I/O modules. The

smallest configuration can be just the communi

cation interface with the onboard I/O channels.

Historical data

The NGC8106 is designed to retain historical data. This data

can be used for audit trails, maintenance, and troubleshooting

to verify transmitter operation over time and provide a limited

data backup for communication link reliability.

The user is allowed to configure the period of the data

retained by the NGC8106 via the Operator Interface. The

default1 memory configuration provides the most recent 480

analysis cycles containing:

Stream averages for the (default1) 840 last hours, 35 last

days and the most recent last month analyses. Operational

parameters for the (default1) last 480 cycles (Diagnostics

Report): Audit logs (default1); Data retained by the NGC8106

can be collected via a remote communication link or by the laptop

PC local operator interface PCCU.
