The new Modicon M340 programmable controller combines power
and innovation, responding perfectly to the demands of
manufacturers of complex machines. Modicon M340 is configured
under Unity Pro, positioning itself as the natural complement to
Modicon Premium and Quantum in Transparent ReadyTM
architectures for industry and infrastructures. |
High-performance Modicon M340 is equally at home with boolean
processing as with fixed or floating decimal calculations. With its 4MB
internal memory, Modicon M340 can manage applications up to 70K
instructions and 256KB data. Unique on the market, the processor
integrates a USB port and two communication ports (CANopen, Ethernet
or Modbus). Modicon M340 benefits from the vast experience of
Telemecanique in counting, positing and regulation, allowing you to
express your specific requirements efficiently and simply.
Your data is automatically backed up in the internal Flash memory and
your application can be stored in an SD Card. No battery is required, so
you avoid the associated maintenance. The “Plug & Load” technology of
the card enables easy updating of your application or transfer to other
machines with no disruption of operation. You can also store data files
(recipes, traceability) or maintenance files, easily accessed from a PC or
by simple “drag-and-drop” via FTP.
Communicating:Modicon M340 assures programming of your
applications via USB port or Ethernet. Wherever you are, you can
access your machines in complete security via modem or standard ADSL
serial link. Depending on the technology chosen, you can program
online, transfer your programs, access data files and thanks to the
embedded Web server, manage remote operation and diagnostics.
Compact: Modicon M340 integrates easily in the tightest spaces
thanks to its compact dimensions. Flexible, it accepts from 4 to 12
modules with maximum density of 64 channels per module. Each
module is “hot swap” designed and automatically reconfigured by the
CPU at replacement.
Rugged : Modicon M340 adapts to the most severe industrial
environments, largely exceeding the limits imposed by the IEC standard.
In addition, Modicon M340 confirms to the RoHS European Directive on
environment protection.
Modicon M340 offers real synergy with all Schneider Electric automation
productions, from control to supervision, from monitoring to machine data
acquisition. Everything is designed to simplify integration of Altivar
variable speed drives, Lexium and IcLa movement control products,
Magelis graphic terminals and industrial PCs, Vijeo configuration and
supervision software, Advantys inputs/outputs, Osi sensors and Preventa
safety products. You therefore optimize performance of your solutions
and their development.
