Product description
3.4.9 Data interfaces
Numerous data interfaces are available on the logic unit of the MSC800.
Interface Connection Function
Serial host
interfaces
HOST 1, HOST 2 Providing the read result in two output formats or in
customer-specific formats/with customer-specific
protocols for further processing by the host computer
Serial auxiliary
interfaces
AUX 1, AUX 2 Read diagnosis and monitoring of the host interfaces,
providing the read result in customer-specific
formats/with customer-specific protocols, connecting to
the RDT400 tool.
Ethernet ETHERNET Host port:
Providing the read result in two output formats or in
customer-specific formats/with customer-specific
protocols for further processing by the host computer
Aux port:
Read diagnosis and monitoring of the host interfaces,
providing the read result in customer-specific
formats/with customer-specific protocols, connecting to
the RDT400 tool.
CAN bus CAN 1 (Out/In),
CAN 2 (Out/In)
Networking the MSC800 with one or more ICR890
systems
PROFIBUS-DP PROFIBUS Providing the read result for further processing by the
host computer
Tab. 8 Function of data interfaces
The SOPAS-ET configuration software can be used to configure the data interfaces:

3.4.10 Digital switching outputs
In the case of certain events in the read process (e.g., in the event of failed decoding
“No Read”), independent switching signals can be output on the four digital outputs, which
are used to display the status of the read result. In addition, it is possible to signal system
statuses (operational readiness, excess temperature in the cabinet).
The SOPAS-ET configuration software can be used to configure the digital switching
outputs:
PROJECT TREE, MSC800, PARAMETERS, NETWORK/INTERFACES/IOS, DIGITAL OUTPUTS, tabs
OUTPUT 1 to OUTPUT 4
