Network Ports: Two ports with redundancy capabilities for reliable system communication.
Debug Port: One dedicated port for streamlined maintenance and fault analysis.
Data Rate: Aggregate transmission speed of 460.8 kbps for efficient data flow.
Protocol Support: Includes TCP/IP, Modbus TCP/IP Slave/Master, TSAA, TriStation, SNTP, and Jet Direct.
Advanced Communication Features for Critical Applications
The TRICONEX CM3201 supports multiple industrial interfaces, including Modbus master/slave configurations, TriStation protocol, and Trimble GPS integration for time synchronization. Peer-to-peer communication capabilities allow direct module-to-module data exchange, optimizing control strategies across distributed systems. Furthermore, the module supports Peer-to-Peer Time Synchronization protocols, ensuring coordinated operations across the entire control network.
Scalability and Physical Specifications
System architects can integrate up to four 3201 modules into a single Tricon chassis, providing scalable communication capacity for expanding industrial applications. The module measures approximately 25.4 cm in height, 12.7 cm in width, and 3.8 cm in depth, fitting standard Triconex chassis slots. With a weight of roughly 1.1 kg, the unit features a robust backplane connector for secure data transmission and power delivery from the main chassis.
