3HAC034056-001 Communication processor module

3HAC034056-001 Communication processor module

ABB 3HAC034056-001 is a Communication Processor designed to connect the S7-400 PLC (programmable logic controller) to different bus systems or communication networks, while also supporting point-to-point connections.

3HAC034056-001 Communication processor module

Its main functions include:

Bus system and point-to-point connection: This communication processor can connect the S7-400 to various bus systems, such as PROFIBUS, EtherNet/IP, etc., and it also supports point-to-point connection. This point-to-point connection is particularly advantageous over bus systems when only a few devices, such as RS 485 devices, need to be connected to SIMATIC S7.
Third-party system connection: ABB 3HAC034056-001 can easily connect third-party systems to SIMATIC S7-400 systems, enabling data exchange and communication between different systems.
Configuration and configuration: For each communication processor, there is a corresponding configuration package. This configuration package contains an electronic manual, parameterized screen forms, and standard functional blocks for communication between the CPU and CP. The configuration data is stored in the system block and backed up in the CPU, so the new module can be used immediately after the module is replaced.
Multiple interface support: In order to cope with different physical transmission media and transmission speeds, the communication processor can support a variety of interfaces. When using the S7-400 point-to-point link module, the user only needs to insert the relevant connector submodule without the need for an external converter.
High reliability and stability: ABB’s communication processors are typically highly reliable and stable, capable of long-term stable operation in harsh industrial environments.
