[Automation Server Family] SmartStruxure solution compatible

Automation Server
Communications hub
Capable of coordinating traffic from above and
below its location, the Automation Server can
deliver data directly to you or to other servers
throughout the site. The Automation Server can run
multiple control programs, manage local I/O,
alarms, and users, handle scheduling and logging,
and communicate using a variety of protocols.
Because of this, most parts of the system function
autonomously and continue to run as a whole even
if communication fails or individual servers or
devices go offline.

Variety of connectivity options

The Automation Server has numerous ports that
enable it to communicate with a wide range of
protocols, devices, and servers.

The Automation Server has the following ports:

One 10/100 Ethernet port

Two RS-485 ports

Introduction One built-in I/O bus port

DHCP/DNS for rapid deployment and lookup

of addresses
HTTP/HTTPS for Internet access through
firewalls, which enables remote monitoring and
control
NTP (Network Time Protocol) for time
synchronization throughout the system
SMTP enables sending email messages
Patented two-piece design
Each module can be separated from its terminal
base to allow the site to be wired prior to the
installation of the electronics. The patented locking
mechanism serves as handles for removing the
module from its base. All critical components have
a protective cover that permits convection cooling
to occur.

Auto-addressing
The auto-addressing feature eliminates the need for
setting DIP switches or pressing commission
buttons. With the Automation Server family, each
module automatically knows its order in the chain
and assigns itself accordingly significantly
reducing engineering and maintenance time.

Simple DIN-rail installation

Fasteners easily snap into a locked position for
panel installation. The fastener has a quick-release
feature for easy DIN-rail removal.
