ABB CI570 3BSE001440R1 – MasterFieldbus Controller | AC800M PROFIBUS DP Platform
Engineering Background
The CI570 is ABB’s dedicated PROFIBUS DP master communication interface designed for the AC800M Modular Controller platform — ABB’s flagship DCS/PLC architecture deployed across power generation, oil & gas, pulp & paper, and advanced manufacturing. As a Class 1 DP master, the CI570 manages cyclic and acyclic data exchange with up to 125 slave devices per segment, providing deterministic fieldbus communication that is foundational to process-critical automation loops.
Product Positioning
For procurement engineers sourcing AC800M communication infrastructure, the CI570 / 3BSE001440R1 is the OEM-specified module for PROFIBUS DP master functionality. It slots directly into the AC800M controller backplane without additional gateways or adapters, preserving system integrity and ABB’s certified hardware topology. Konmask.com supplies this module from verified OEM and authorized-distributor channels with full traceability documentation available on request.

Engineering Advantages
- Native AC800M Integration: No gateway required — plugs directly into the controller backplane for zero-latency communication with the PM8xx CPU
- DP-V1 & DP-V2 Support: Enables parameter access (acyclic) and isochronous drive synchronization beyond basic DP-V0 cyclic exchange
- High Slave Density: 125 slaves per segment supports large distributed I/O architectures without repeaters in most plant layouts
- Deterministic Timing: Token-passing bus protocol guarantees bounded cycle times critical for closed-loop process control
- Hot-Swap Capable: Supports module replacement without full controller shutdown (subject to AC800M system configuration)
- Diagnostic Transparency: Full slave diagnostics accessible via Control Builder M and ABB’s System 800xA HMI layer
System Architecture & Signal Flow
The CI570 occupies a communication module slot on the AC800M backplane. The PM8xx CPU communicates with the CI570 over the internal backplane bus; the CI570 then manages the PROFIBUS DP segment independently as a Class 1 master. Slave devices (remote I/O, drives, positioners, analyzers) are connected via shielded twisted-pair RS-485 cable. The CI570 handles GSD file-based slave configuration, cyclic data mapping, and alarm/diagnostic forwarding to the AC800M application layer — all configured within ABB Control Builder M without third-party tools.

Technical FAQ
Q: Is the CI570 compatible with AC800M controllers running 800xA?
A: Yes. The CI570 is fully supported under ABB System 800xA and integrates with the 800xA PROFIBUS DP fieldbus library for engineering and diagnostics.
Q: Can the CI570 operate as a PROFIBUS DP slave?
A: No. The CI570 is a Class 1 master only. For slave functionality, ABB offers separate communication modules (e.g., CI572).
Q: What cable specification is required for the PROFIBUS segment?
A: PROFIBUS Type A cable (shielded twisted pair, 135–165 Ω impedance) per IEC 61158-2 is recommended for all baud rates above 1.5 Mbit/s.
Q: Is a GSD file required for slave configuration?
A: Yes. Each PROFIBUS DP slave requires its GSD (General Station Description) file to be imported into ABB Control Builder M before the CI570 can manage it.
Q: What is the maximum segment length at 12 Mbit/s?
A: 100 m per segment at 12 Mbit/s. Repeaters can extend reach; maximum network length depends on baud rate and topology.
Q: Do you provide installation and commissioning support?
A: Yes. Konmask’s technical team can provide remote commissioning guidance, GSD file sourcing, and Control Builder M configuration support.
