ABB Advant® Master S100 I/O system
The S100 I/O process interface
modules for Advant Controller
400 series process controllers
come with connection units,
simplifying cable termination and
keeping noise and destructive
spikes away from the central
electronics.
S100 I/O is the central process interface for Advant
Controller 400 series process controllers. Thanks to
built-in cablemarshalling facilities and parallel
communication with the host controller, it is the
right choice for centralized I/O systems and
high-speed applications.
The range of process I/O modules is complete,
consisting of general purpose digital and analog
inputs and outputs and special interfaces for special
tasks. These specials include pulse counting,
frequency measuring, positioning, motor speed
control and communication with other controllers.
All I/O modules provide simple interfacing, accurate -
yet fast - control, and easy integration of individual
loops into a comprehensive plant-wide control
and supervision system.
The interface modules connect to the process
through screw terminals on connection units
normally installed inside, at the back of the cabinet.
This solution keeps noise and destructive voltage
spikes away from the central electronics and
provides a neat and tidy process interface that is
easy to maintain.
Prefabricated cables interconnect modules with
connection units. The cables come in different
lengths, permitting termination and marshalling
in controller cabinets, in adjacent cabinets, or in
cabinets a greater distance away.
There are connection units that support signaloriented or device-oriented field wiring. The former
means that field wires with the same electrical
characteristics (e.g. all 24 V d.c. inputs) are grouped
and terminated together, the latter that field wires
to/from the same field devices are grouped and
terminated together. The combination means
maximum installation flexibility.

On-board processing capabilities
The process I/O modules are “intelligent” in the sense
that module-related signal and data processing is
performed on board as opposed to centrally, by the
CPU of the host controller. Time tagging of events,
filtering and gain control are some examples of
board-level tasks. This functional distribution improves
real-time performance and reliability of the system
as a whole and maintains processing capacity when
the system is expanded.
Comprehensive self-diagnostics
Comprehensive self-diagnostics continuously monitor
the modules and report any errors through LEDs on
the module fronts and through alarm messages and
indications to process operator stations.
Malfunctioning inputs can be disabled and simulated
by manual entry while failing outputs are deactivated
or driven to a predetermined safe state automatically.
All I/O modules can be replaced while the system is in
service. Some modules can even be arranged, trans parently into dually redundant configurations
forenhanced availability.
High disturbance immunity
All modules conform to the highest standards of
electromagnetic noise immunity and satisfy the
requirements of the EU directives 2014/30/EU and
2014/35/EU. For the above reasons, S100 I/O is likely
to be the best help you can get for putting your con trol system in touch with your field devices.
