block types. The CEEC300 block provides an execution and scheduling environment in
which user-configured Control Modules (CMs) and Sequential Control Modules (SCMs)
execute. This block also provides a peer-to-peer communications layer used to
communicate between other controllers. The CEEC300 block supports communication
and containment of Series A I/O module and channel blocks.
IOLink function blocks
Two IOLINK function blocks, which represent the 2 physical IO links on the C300
Controller IOTA, provide the I/O Link interface to support communications with PMIO
I/O module card files and/or Series C I/O modules. Each IOLINK is configured to
support either PMIO I/O or Series C I/O modules, or ‘No Link’ if no I/O control is
required. Each IOLINK supports redundant and non-redundant communications and
contains the same functionality as the IOLINK blocks used in the C200 controller and
IOLIM interface.
I/O modules supported by the C300 Controller
The C300 Controller is connected to the associated I/O hardware by a pair of I/O Link
Interface cables. All Series C I/O modules and all PMIO I/O modules qualified for use in
Experion are supported by the C300 Controller.
For a list of the supported I/O modules, see,
• Planning Your Input/Output Processor (IOP) Cards for a list of supported IO
modules.
• Viewing supported Series C I/O modules for a listing of available Series C IO
modules.
A number of Series A I/O chassis-based modules have been qualified for support with
the C300 Controller. Some of these modules are implemented in a Control Component
Library (CCL). Table 1 lists the I/O modules that are qualified for use with the C300 in
Experion Release 300.
