Following are the parts included:
 a C300 Controller assembly (controller module with IOTA board and mounting
hardware)
 STP Cat5 Redundancy Cable (Orange cable)
 2 STP Cat5 Ethernet cables (one Yellow cable, one Green cable)
 2 or 4 IOLink cable assemblies for connecting on-board IO Link interface if the
controller is supporting Series 8 I/O modules.
 Ensure the cabinet enclosure is connected to a protective earth ground using #8 AWG
solid copper wire. There should be metal to metal contact between the grounding bus
bar and the enclosure as well as the channel.
Considerations
 The secondary controller should be installed in the same cabinet as the primary
controller.
 The secondary controller may be installed on a separate channel from the primary
controller.
To install a partner secondary C300 Controller, perform the following steps.
Step
Action
1
If the primary C300 FB already exists in Control Builder and it is currently
configured as a redundant controller, select the Redundancy tab and click the
Disable Synchronization button to set the Auto-Synchronization State
parameter to "DISABLED."
2
Refer to appropriate site location drawings for the specified controller
installation location, controller Device Index (FTE address) and wiring
diagrams.
3
Identify the mounting location on channel and align mounting holes in IOTA
with screw hole locations on the channel.
