CTI 2572-B / 2500C-2572-B Installation and Operation Manual 2
1.2. Compatibility
2572-B
The 2572-B mode is designed to be a direct application replacement for the CTI 2572-A module.
• The module uses the same PLC command interface as the CTI 2572 and 2572-A modules, allowing
existing PLC logic to control the operation of the module.
• The CAMP server is compatible with existing CAMP and task code drivers.
• The Modbus Server and EtherNet/IP server functionality is identical to the corresponding 2572-A
protocol managers.
Some features of the 2572-A module that are unrelated to the product application are not supported:
• The TFTP method used by the 2572-A module has been replaced by a method initiated by the
embedded web browser;
• The serial port, which provided an alternate means to set the IP parameters address on the 2572-A, is
not present;
• The Module ID switches, used to generate a DHCP client ID, are not present;
• The SYSLOG client capability is no longer supported.
2500C-2572-B
Except for the smaller form factor, the 2500C-2572-B module is functionally equivalent to the 2572-B module.
It uses the same command interface as the 2572, 2572-A, and 2572-B modules. Consequently, user logic
designed to control these modules will also work with the 2500C-2572-B module. HMI and SCADA workstation
drivers that can access data in CTI 2500 Series Classic controllers via the 2572-A or 2572-B also work with the
2500C-2572-B Module to access data in CTI 2500 Series Compact controllers.
