Schneider 140NOE77101

Communication Port: Schneider 140NOE77101 is equipped with an RJ45 10 Base-T/100 BaseTX twisted pair port and an MT/RJ 100 Base-FX fiber optic port to adapt to the different specific requirements of both ends of the Ethernet, so that it can be more easily connected to different network infrastructures. 

Transmission rate: Modicon Quantum PLC operates at a transmission speed of 10/100 Mbps, and can communicate smoothly and efficiently with other devices through Ethernet, minimizing communication delays for real-time monitoring and control applications.

Power supply: Most of the power supply for 140NOE77101 comes from the rack power supply, with a maximum current of 750 mA @ 5 V DC; this design takes into account the matching of the standard power supply of the Modicon Quantum system, making its installation and integration easier to manage.

LED indicators: The module is equipped with several LED indicators to facilitate observation of the module's status; strict indicators include LEDs for transmit/receive activity (TXA CT/RX ACT), rack operating status (ACTIVE), network activity status (LINK), module ready status (READY), full-duplex mode (F DUPLEX), Ethernet network status (RUN), Ethernet module fault (FAULT), download mode (KERNEL), collision detection (COLL) and data rate indication (10 MB/100 MB). These light-emitting diode indicators quickly and easily convey information about the module's operating status, facilitating troubleshooting and maintenance.

Product Features

Ethernet Communication: As an Ethernet TCP/IP module, it forms an important link between the Modicon Quantum series PLCs and Ethernet-based networks for data communication between PLCs and PCs, HMIs and other networked units, enabling precise control and monitoring of industrial processes.

Web Server Functionality: The module has a built-in B30 class Web server. It allows configuration of module settings, checking of its status, and viewing of various diagnostic messages through a Web browser. These features allow users to remotely edit data, adjust parameters, and change settings, providing maximum flexibility and convenience for system configuration and management.

Modbus TCP Messaging: Modbus TCP messaging is widely used for communication between different devices in industrial automation, and it supports TCP messaging; therefore, the module will act as a Modbus TCP client or server to facilitate full integration with Modbus-compatible devices and systems, helping to easily exchange data for process variables, control commands, and status information.

Diagnostics and Monitoring: Using predefined web pages for diagnostics, users can easily track, identify, and troubleshoot problems or errors detected at the module level and network level. The module also provides bandwidth management, global data, and I/O scanning features that are essential for improving network performance. Along with this feature is a hot standby redundant architecture that improves reliability and availability by providing a backup in the event of a primary module failure.

Firmware Upgradeability: The 140NOE77101 allows for field upgrades of software via TCP/IP. This enables users to perform simple updates to the module's firmware; ensuring that the hottest features or the latest patches are immediately available and without the need to replace the module. This helps save time and make the system more functional and effective in the long run.

Industrial Applications

Including manufacturing plants, chemical processing facilities, and food and beverage production lines, it seamlessly integrates Modicon Quantum PLC with other process automation equipment to control and monitor production processes, thereby improving productivity while ensuring product quality.

Power Generation and Distribution: This module can connect PLCs in power plants to other components of the power system, such as generators, transformers, and switchgear. It enables real-time monitoring of power system parameters, remote control devices, and intercommunication between various control systems. 

Water and Wastewater Treatment: Ongoing Applications also allow monitoring and control of processes such as filtration, disinfection, and distribution. Through PLC communication with pumps, valves, and sensors, it enables seamless communication to ensure the effective operation of these processes and even provide safe and clean water.

Building Automation: Combined with building management, it integrates different subsystems into a single entity, including HVAC control, lighting, and access control. It provides centralized monitoring and control of building systems, improving energy efficiency, occupant comfort.
