Product questions
What is the BMEH584040 and what does HSBY mean?
The BMEH584040 is a Level 4 redundant processor for the Schneider Electric Modicon M580. HSBY means Hot Standby: a system uses primary and standby controllers to support continued control if the primary cannot continue. The complete redundant system requires an appropriate configuration; a single processor alone is not a redundant pair.
How many remote I/O stations can the BMEH584040 support?
Schneider Electric lists 16 remote I/O stations for this processor, including X80 and Quantum I/O. Actual system design depends on the selected adapters, modules and configuration; check the existing equipment model, serial number and project before ordering.
Can local I/O modules be installed in the BMEH584040 Hot Standby rack?
No. The M580 Hot Standby configuration documentation states that the local rack of a Hot Standby PAC cannot include I/O modules. Plan the I/O architecture around the supported remote and distributed configuration instead.
What connections and program memory does the BMEH584040 have?
It has 16 MB of integrated program RAM, one Ethernet service port, two Ethernet device-network ports, an Ethernet Hot Standby connection and a USB mini-B connection. Confirm the required network and Hot Standby link components for the particular installation.
Does the BMEH584040 support Quantum Ethernet I/O and LL984?
Schneider Electric lists the BMEH584040 among CPUs supporting Quantum Ethernet I/O, State RAM, LL984 and Rack Viewer in the CPU web server. This does not establish that an existing installation or application can be transferred unchanged; verify the project, equipment model and serial number.
