HONEYWELL 8C-PCNT01 | 51454363-175 | C300 Controller Module

HONEYWELL 8C-PCNT01 | 51454363-175 | C300 Controller Module.The Honeywell 8C-PCNT01, also known as CC-PCNT01, is a part of the Honeywell’s C300 Controller series. The C300 Controller provides robust control for the distributed control system (DCS). It operates Honeywell’s field-proven deterministic Control Execution Environment (CEE) core software, which provides a superior control execution and scheduling environment.

The C300 Controller is a node in the operating Honeywell’s field-proven deterministic Control Execution Environment (CEE) core software. The CEE software provides a superior control execution and scheduling environment. Control strategies for each controller node are configured and loaded through a common Control Builder, an easy and intuitive engineering tool.

The C300 Controller shares its hardware design with the Series 8 I/O, offering an innovative design that reduces footprint and installation and maintenance costs. The C300 controller module is mounted on the C300 Input Output Termination Assembly (IOTA). The C300 IOTA contains only passive devices such as FTE address switches.

The C300 Controller supports Custom Algorithm Blocks (CABs). CABs are similar in purpose and structure to the standard function blocks that are distributed with Control Builder. However, CABs have user-defined algorithms and data structures, allowing custom tailored strategies to be developed to specific requirements.

Redundancy is implemented with two modules/IOTAs and a redundancy cable (51305980-836). C300 Memory Backup is optional.

The C300 Controller has several configuration options such as support for 50 ms and 20 ms CEE, supported control networks, device index configuration, IOTA size, number of I/O links supported, I/O link speeds available, base execution periods supported, redundancy supported, remote – non-Series C I/O supported, I/O module execution period, configurable values for CM/SCM/RCM execution periods, C300 time source, SNTP update period, GPS time support, PTP update period.
