Frequently Asked Questions

What is the main difference between the 140CPU65260C and the 140CPU65860?

The 140CPU65260C has 3MB of RAM and is heavily certified for hazardous areas (ATEX Zone 2) and marine use. The 140CPU65860 has 1MB RAM and different certification focuses. The 'C' suffix often denotes conformal coating and specific certifications.

What does "HazLoc" compliance mean?

It means the processor is designed and certified for use in Hazardous Locations where flammable gases, dusts, or fibers may be present, meeting specific safety standards.

Can it communicate on Ethernet/IP networks?

Its native Ethernet port supports Modbus TCP/IP. To communicate on Ethernet/IP or Profinet, an additional communication coprocessor module (like 140NOE771xx) is required in the rack.

How many remote I/O drops can it handle?

It supports up to 31 drops of S908 remote I/O or 31 drops of Quantum Ethernet remote I/O, allowing for a vast geographically distributed system.

What programming software is required?

It is programmed using Schneider Electric's Unity Pro software suite, which offers full configuration, programming, and diagnostic capabilities for the Quantum platform.
