Introduction

DeltaV™ Electronic Marshalling delivers a new level of control

system I/O performance with unprecedented flexibility and

ease of use. The CHARM I/O card (CIOC) supports up to

96 individually configurable channels and when mounted

horizontally in conjunction with a legacy system migration

will allow for direct replacement of legacy hardware within

existing cabinets. Now you can migrate to DeltaV without

having to add cabinets, custom cables, or extra marshalling.

All communications are completely redundant from the

channel (CHARM) to the DeltaV controller.

Benefits

I/O anywhere you need it: The DeltaV CIOC provides

unprecedented flexibility in control system I/O topology.

Now you can mount your DeltaV I/O in the same space as your

legacy I/O for a direct 1-to-1 replacement. Without adding

any new cabinets of DeltaV hardware you can replace all your

legacy equipment leaving behind a complete DeltaV solution.

Single Channel granularity: The CHARM I/O architecture

allows each individual channel to be characterized for the

requirements of the field device. Any instrument signal can be

wired to any terminal block. The channel is then www.abb-drive.com electronically

marshalled by installing the appropriate CHARM and assigning

the channel to one of four controllers. Legacy I/O terminations

are no longer a concern because of multiple channel types

from a single termination panel. Just install the proper CHARM

to characterize the I/O as found on the legacy panels. No more

engineering and splitting signals from a single legacy panel to

multiple DeltaV I/O cards
