AC500/S500 System Structure

The AC500 product family provides a variety of modules and pluggable components for expanding the capabilities of the CPU with additional I/Os or other communication protocols. Depending on the features and functions of the Processor Module (CPU) compatible components can be added to a complete AC500 PLC system.

Example of an AC500 PLC system:

Centralized I/O expansion

S500 I/O Modules directly connected to a Processor Module

Decentralized I/O expansion

S500 I/O Modules connected via FBP Interface Module DC505-FBP with a FBP
