EPD for CI845 - Ethernet FCI module (Select I/O)

The product covered in this EPD is CI845 from the Select I/O series.

Select I/O is an Ethernet networked, single channel granular I/O system for the ABB Ability™ System 800xA automation platform. Select I/O helps decouple project tasks, minimizes the impact of late changes, and supports standardization of I/O cabinetry ensuring automation projects are delivered on time and under budget. A Signal Conditioning Module (SCM) performs the necessary signal conditioning and powering of the connected field device for one I/O channel.

The CI845 Ethernet Fieldbus Communication Interface Module (FCI) is responsible for communications of S800 I/O or Select I/O to the AC 800M controllers. For redundant configurations, two CI845s are required

to be installed in the TU860 or TU865 Ethernet Field Communications Interface MTUs.
