Chapter 2. CPU Features & Specifications

GFK-2222AD April 2018 37

• Effective with firmware version 9.30, the CPE400 supports Hot Standby Redundancy with PROFINET

IO. In this configuration, LAN3 is used as a high-speed data synchronization link between the two

redundant CPUs. Only the Primary and Secondary CPUs may be attached to LAN3. Two OLED menu

items support Redundancy operation: RDN Info and RDN Command. The RACT and RBOK LEDs reflect

the status of the Redundant CPUs. Refer to the PACSystems Hot Standby CPU Redundancy User

Manual, GFK-2308 for details and restrictions.

• Effective with firmware version 9.30, the CPE400 supports two independent Redundant IP

addresses, one for LAN1 and one for LAN2. LAN2 Redundant IP is supported when configured for

Ethernet mode only. Redundant IP is supported by the SRTP Server, Modbus TCP Server, and EGD

protocols. It is not possible to use Redundant IP with the OPC UA Server or with the Ethernet

firmware update web page.

• Effective with firmware version 9.40, the CPE400 Serial Port (COM1) is supported. Refer to Section

2.2.1.13.

• The CPE400 is secure by design, incorporating technologies such as Trusted Platform Modules,

secure boot, and encrypted firmware updates.

• Optional Energy Pack, IC695ACC403, allows CPE400 to instantly save user memory to non-volatile

storage in the event of loss of power. Upon restoration of power, with the ACC403 connected, the

CPE400 PLC function is able to resume operations from the state saved at power-down.

• OPC UA Sweep Mode & Sweep Time: The CPE400’s sweep mode and sweep time are available

through the OPC UA server. The Sweep Mode variable reports the controller’s current mode:

Stop Disabled, Run Enabled, Stop Enabled, Run Disabled, Stop Faulted, and Stop Halted. The

Sweep Time variable reports the sweep time in seconds. These variables are located under

GE Device Information -> PACSystems RX3i -> Controller.

• An OLED display that provides access to basic CPE400 status and control information including each

LAN’s configured IP Address.

• Alternate panel-mount adaptor plate included.

• Achilles Level 2 Communications Certification

• Ability to display serial number and date code in PME Device Information Details.

• Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) and Daylight Savings Time (DST) support.

• Operating temperature range -40C to 70C. (-40F to 158F) The maximum operating temperature

varies according to installation altitude: 70C at 0m to 2000m, 65C at 2000m to 3000m, and 60C

at 3000m to 4000m.

The CPE400’s PACSystems Runtime is Achilles Level 2 certified in Release 9.20. Embedded Field Agent (EFA) certification is

planned for a future release.
