TC-CCN013 Honeywell Redundant Network Interface Module

The Honeywell TC-CCN013 is a redundant network interface module designed to provide ControlNet communication between ControlLogix controllers and network-connected devices. It supports single-media network connections and both standard and enhanced ControlNet networks. Furthermore, diagnostic LED indicators and built-in monitoring tools help maintenance personnel check communication status and identify network-related faults.

Key Features

• Provides redundant communication between ControlLogix controllers and ControlNet devices.
• Supports connection to a single ControlNet network through a single-media interface.
• Compatible with standard and enhanced ControlNet networks.
• Includes diagnostic LED indicators for communication status monitoring.
• Provides built-in diagnostic tools to assist with system monitoring and fault identification.

Communication and Network Configuration

The TC-CCN013 uses the ControlNet communication protocol to exchange data between controllers and connected network devices. Its single-media interface provides a connection to one ControlNet network. Meanwhile, the module supports redundant network configurations, allowing it to form part of a redundant communication arrangement.

Furthermore, compatibility with standard and enhanced ControlNet networks provides flexibility when selecting network equipment. The required network architecture and redundancy arrangement should match the installed ControlLogix system configuration.

Technical Specifications

Diagnostic and Maintenance

The module provides LED status indicators and built-in diagnostic tools to help maintenance personnel monitor network communication. For example, these indicators can assist with initial checks when investigating communication interruptions or network connection problems.

In addition, the diagnostic functions support routine inspection of the network interface without relying solely on controller-level communication information.

Frequently Asked Questions
