HIMA F8650X CPU module configuration

HIMA F8650X CPU module configuration

The HIMA F8650X CPU module is a safety-oriented controller that is designed to be used in process automation and control systems. The configuration of the module can vary depending on the specific application requirements, but the following information provides a general overview of the module's capabilities and configuration options:

The module is equipped with a 32-bit processor that can execute up to 4 million instructions per second (MIPS).

It has 256 KB of non-volatile memory for storing the application program and data.

The module supports up to 64 input/output (I/O) channels, which can be configured as either digital or analog signals. The I/O channels can be connected to a variety of sensors, actuators, and other field devices.

The module supports several communication protocols, including Ethernet, PROFIBUS, and Modbus. It also has two serial ports for connecting to other devices.

The module can be programmed using HIMA's HIMax programming tool, which provides a graphical interface for designing and testing the application program.

The module is designed to meet several safety standards, including SIL 3 according to IEC 61508 and SIL 3 according to IEC 61511.

Diagnostic display of the central module 

– Four digit alphanumerical display, 

– two LEDs for the general display of errors (CPU for the central modules, IO for the testable input/output modules)

– two toggle switches to request detailed error information, 

– push-button ACK resets the error indication; in failure stop ACK behaves like restarting the system. 

For further information on the diagnostic display and lists of error codes, refer to the documentation "Functions of the operational system BS 41q/51q" (also on ELOP II CD). Notes for start-up and maintenance – Lifetime of the buffer battery (without voltage feeding): 1000 days at TA = 25 °C 200 days at TA = 60 °C – It is recommended to change the buffer battery (CPU in operation) at the latest after 6 years, or with display BATI within three months (Lithium battery, e.g. type CR 2477N, HIMA part no. 44 0000018) – Check the bus station no. and transmission rate at switch S1 for correct settings – Important: When upgrading an F 8650 to an F 8650X module the fan concept has also to be changed!
