Remote I/O for DeltaV S-series

Dear All;

I want ton know what is the requirements for using of DeltaV remote I/O with S-series controller.

Is there any special cards or interface for this purpose?

Let me have your experience if there is any.

Thank you in advanced

B/R

  • The DeltaV Remote IO product can be used with either M-series and S-series. The S-series controllers support this IO node type in the same way as M-series. The RIU will have M-series IO cards.

    As MC points out, S-series supports Electronic Marshalling, which can also be installed remotely. The advantage of the CHARM IO is with the higher availability. The IO Card is redundant, with up to 96 channels of any IO mix. The RIU has a simplex scanner and only supports simplex IO cards. The RIU does not support all IO card types and does not provide the marshaling features of CHARMS.

    If you're looking to purchase a remote IO solution for S-series, I would strongly recommend the CHARM IO Card over the RIU. If you have the RIU, simply install and commission this in the IO Network, and assign the IO cards as needed to the S-series controller "assign IO" container. Be sure to flash the RIU Scanner to the DeltaV revision you are using.

    Dear Andre
    We want to use of RIU, but I don't know about the required cards and equipment .we have 450 digital single I/O.

    Please click on this link for information on the DeltaV Remote IO Scanner. 

    You can deploy high-density M-Series Discrete IO cards considering the number of I/O you are dealing with.

    Dear MC_Chow
    Thank you
    We have SX controller with 7 filled 8-wide carrier in system cabinet, let me know how many I/O scanner(Remote I/O Unit ) could we use with this controller?
  • In reply to damer.j1975:

    You can assign up to 16 Remote IO Units to a controller, which makes for a total of 192 IO card slots in a controller's address space (8 local carriers and 16 remote carriers, all with 8 IO card slots). The Product Data Sheets explains that any conventional IO card can be installed, including the 32 channel DI and DO cards. The multifunction card, Sequence of Event and bus cards are not supported.

    You also have to consider the CPU requirements for the modules that will use these additional IO. If you have 58 IO cards on this controller already, does it have enough free CPU to handle the logic required for IO from new Remote IO units?
