System limits By reducing the total number of user tasks that can be configured, it is pos sible to gain extra memory (approx. 12.5 Kbytes per task).
Max. no. of
user tasks The number of user tasks that can be configured for this resource.
Number of VIS Specifies number of communication links to control stations permitted for
this resource (Digivis).

5.5 AC 800F Modules
5.5.1 Power supply modules SA 801F / SD 802F
Power supply for the FieldController. The module must be mounted in every basic unit and in stalled in slot P (first slot on the left side of the basic unit).
There are two different versions, the SA 801F power supply module for 115/230 V AC and the SD
802F power supply module for 24 V DC and redundant power supply, which meets stricter re quirements for the availability of the power supply.
For further parameter information and object data, see Parameterization of AC 800F, page 20
and Diagnostic data for objects, page 28.

5.5.2 Ethernet modules EI 801F, EI 802F, and EI 803F
Ethernet connection module of the FieldController. The module must be mounted in every basic
unit and installed in slot E1 or E2 (second and third slots on the left side of the basic unit).
There are three different variants : Ethernet module EI 801F with 10Base2 (Cheapernet or BNC),
Ethernet module EI 802F with AUI connection and Ethernet module EI 803F with Twisted Pair
connection.
For further parameter information and object data, see Parameterization of AC 800F, page 20
and Diagnostic data for objects, page 28.
5.5.3 Battery module AM 801F
Battery module of the FieldController. The module can be mounted as an add-on in every basic
unit and is used for redundant battery back-up of the internal memory (RAM). The module must
be installed in slot E1 or E2 (second and third slots on the left side of the basic unit).
For further parameter information and object data, see Parameterization of AC 800F, page 20
and Diagnostic data for objects, page 28.
5.5.4 Profibus module FI 830F
Profibus module of the FieldController. Each Profibus module allows the connection of a Profibus
line, i.e. the connection of a maximum of 125 slaves. Each of these slaves may also be modular,
i.e. may contain a maximum of 64 modules. The module may be installed in slots F1 to F4.
For further parameter information and object data, see Parameterization of AC 800F, page 20
and Diagnostic data for objects, page 28.
The software version of the EPROM on the Profibus module can be updated via the DigiTool Configure Dialog. See Engineering Manual, System Configuration, Installation
DigiTool, Installation Adjustment.
5.5.5 Serial Interface module FI 820F
Serial interface module of the FieldController. The serial module has 2 interfaces which can be
equipped as preferred by the Modbus master interface protocol, Modbus slave interface protocol,
telecontrol interface protocol, Protronic interface protocol or Sartorius scale interface protocol.
Below the serial module, the interface objects can be configured. The module itself can be installed in slots F1 to F4..
For further parameter information and object data, see Parameterization of AC 800F, page 20
and Diagnostic data for objects, page 28.
