RM-1, Redundancy Manager

The Redundancy Manager RM1 (Part Number 943 632-001) has been specifically designed for use in redundant ring structures together with the Rail Switches. The control of the redundant ring is handled by the Redundancy Manager. It supervises the ring and is responsible for detection and dynamic bypass of network fault, all within 300 ms.The Redundancy Manager is built into a 19~ chassis and suitable for use in control rooms. It provides eight twisted pair ports based on 10BASE-T to connect operator stations, PLCs, I/O blocks or other twisted pair segments as well as two free slots for 100 Mbit/s modules. You can select between modules for lOOBASE-TX and 1OOBASE-FX. The 24 V DC operating voltage is supplied over the terminal block and can also be configured for redundancy.Integrated into the terminal block is a signaling contact which sends fault messages of the Redundancy Manager as High/Low signal, e.g. to an I/O block of a PLC or any other control device. This is activated as soon as any event occurs in the Redundancy Manager, i.e., voltage supply malfunction or at least one fiber optic or twisted pair port reports a faulty link status.
