Description

The Emerson RSTi-EP network adapter is the head module for the RSTi-EP remote I/O system, to which up to 64 active function and I/O modules can be connected and powered. The maximum amount of modules per network adapter is 82 when you include passive modules (no fieldbus communication): power-feed, potential distribution, and empty placeholder modules (3 passive modules is the most that can be placed in consecutive slots).

The web server only registers modules that can communicate on the system bus, therefor passive modules are not displayed in the screen view. Because of this, the numbering of the modules in the web server view may deviate from the count in the actual station.

The network adapter is available in four communication options, all of which feature a Micro USB port for connecting to a system-independent web server application so that you can access all diagnostic, status value, and parameter information as well as simulate or force connected modules.
