ABB INICT01 Computer Transfer Module

The INICT01 is a plug‑in transfer module for ABB Bailey INFI‑90 / Symphony‑Harmony legacy DCS system. It acts as hardware driver interface between INFI‑NET high‑speed control loop and external host computer systems, realizing bidirectional high‑speed data exchange between DCS control network and upper‑level computer equipment. It works cooperatively with INNIS01 network interface slave module, completes protocol conversion and data buffering. This is legacy discontinued DCS hardware, mainly used for spare‑parts replacement of old power plant and chemical‑plant control systems. Not hot‑swappable

Description

Hardware Electrical Specifications

‑ Power Supply:15 VDC from PCU card rack backplane;typical power consumption 7.2 W

‑ Mechanical Structure:standard INFI‑90 PCU slot plug‑in module;front‑panel handle locking structure;weight approx 0.85 kg

‑ On‑board Resources:INFI‑NET bus interface unit, computer communication driving circuit, data buffer memory, module self‑diagnosis circuit

‑ Communication Interface:INFI‑NET high‑speed serial loop interface;computer side ICI communication interface

‑ Galvanic Isolation:galvanic isolation between INFI‑NET network side and computer communication side, isolation rating 2500 VAC

‑ Core Function:protocol conversion, data buffering, bidirectional data transmission between INFI‑NET loop and external computer

‑ Protection:bus surge‑suppression, communication signal over‑range monitoring

‑ Status LED Indicators:Power indicator, Module Fault indicator, network communication status LED, computer link status LED

‑ Weight:approx 0.85 kg

Main Functions

‑ Connects to INFI‑NET control loop via cooperating with INNIS01 module, receives process data, alarm information and controller parameters from DCS network, forwards to external host computer.

‑ Transmits upper‑level computer issuing commands, set‑point values and configuration download data to INFI‑NET DCS control nodes.

‑ Implements data buffer processing, reduces communication conflict of high‑speed loop, guarantees stable data interaction between computer and DCS system.

‑ Module self‑diagnosis monitors back‑plane power supply, INFI‑NET bus link, computer communication channel and on‑board hardware status; detects signal loss, communication interruption and hardware fault, reports fault status to DCS system.

‑ Cannot run independently; must be matched with INNIS01 network interface slave module and INFI‑90 PCU rack. INICT01 belongs to legacy DCS hardware, only compatible with INFI‑90 / Symphony‑Harmony system, cannot be used for other series DCS.

Control & Monitoring Function

‑ Continuously monitors back‑plane power, INFI‑NET bus communication, computer link and internal hardware health. Detected faults activate fault LED and report fault word to DCS controller.

‑ No local historical‑data storage; module status and fault codes are read through DCS system or commissioning tool.

‑ Module hardware failure will cause loss of communication channel between INFI‑NET loop and external computer; DCS internal control loop still runs normally, but upper‑computer cannot exchange data with DCS via this channel.

Communication Interfaces

‑ Back‑plane connector: inserts into INFI‑90 PCU rack slot, connects to INNIS01 module through rack internal bus.

‑ Computer communication interface: connects to external host computer equipment.

Environmental Specifications

‑ Mounting:insert into standard INFI‑90 PCU card rack slot

‑ Operating Temperature:‑10 ℃ ~ +60 ℃

‑ Storage Temperature:‑40 ℃ ~ +70 ℃

‑ Relative Humidity:5‑95 %RH, non‑condensing

‑ Protection Class:IP20, for cabinet‑internal installation.

System Complementary Components
  1. INICT01 INFI‑NET computer transfer module
Complementary parts: INFI‑90 PCU card rack, INNIS01 network interface slave module, INFI‑NET communication cable, upper‑level host computer.
Installation Notes

‑ Power off PCU rack before inserting or removing this module. Ensure matching with INNIS01 module, incorrect module collocation will lead to communication failure.

‑ For spare‑part replacement: verify model INICT01; after installation, check back‑plane power supply, INFI‑NET‑loop communication and computer‑host data interaction function. Hardware version mismatch will cause communication abnormality.

‑ Module fault results in failure of data exchange between DCS INFI‑‑NET loop and external computer.

Typical Application Scenarios
