Professional FAQ
- What systems is the A6824 module compatible with?
The A6824 works with AMS 6500 systems and IMR 6000 series racks. It integrates with PlantWeb architecture and major control systems like Ovation and DeltaV.
- Can I use both ModBus protocols at the same time?
Yes, the module supports simultaneous ModBus TCP/IP and ModBus RTU operation. This provides redundant communication paths for critical applications.
- How many racks can one A6824 module serve?
One A6824 module can serve multiple 19-inch racks. This reduces hardware costs and simplifies system architecture.
- What is the difference between A6824 and A6824-R models?
The A6824-R includes redundancy mode for higher availability systems. The standard A6824 works with IMR 6000 series without redundancy.
- How do I configure the module’s network settings?
Default IP is 192.168.255.1 with subnet 255.255.255.0. You can change these through password-protected configuration tools.
