IO64x-32: Multi-node Simulator I/O Module for Industrial Protocols

This I/O module allows the simulation of 32 slave nodes. Options are available for PROFIBUS.

• Real hardware interconnects running on physical bus in real-time
• Proven protocol stacks used in millions of embedded devices
• Full Simulink workflow integration with separate blocks for each node.

Each node has its own network controller chip with a full network stack and is controlled via dual-port memory.

Up to four of these I/O modules can be installed into a Mobile real-time target machine to provide up to 128 nodes.

Advantages

This solution has several advantages when compared with a pure virtual simulator:

• Nodes run in real-time with parallel execution
• Each node is completely independent
• Network collisions can happen in the same way as on a real bus
• Component failure can be simulated by shutting down a node.

Applications

This I/O module is suitable for the simulation of large scale industrial setups including:

• Ships and submarines
• Process machinery
• Train networks
• Wind farms
• Solar parks
• Tidal arrays
• Power grids

Key to X in Item ID
Please replace the X with the code number of the specific target machine into which this I/O module shall be installed:

• 5 = Mobile real-time target machine
• 6 = Performance real-time target machine
• 8 = Baseline real-time target machine
