RELIANCE Processor Modules are central processing units (CPUs) designed to execute control logic and manage data in industrial automation environments. They plug into a system's backplane (like the AutoMax rack) and communicate with other modules, such as I/O modules and communication modules, to monitor processes and control machinery.

Core Function: The primary role of a RELIANCE Processor Module is to run user-defined application programs (e.g., ladder logic, BASIC, or control block diagrams) to automate industrial processes. It makes decisions based on inputs from field devices and sends commands to output devices.
Architecture: Older RELIANCE processor modules, such as the AutoMax 6010 (57C430 series) and AutoMax 6011 (57C431 series), were typically based on Motorola 68010 or 68020 microprocessors. More advanced versions, like the AutoMax 7010 (O-57435), utilized the 32-bit Motorola 68020.
Modularity: These modules are designed to be part of a modular rack-based system. Multiple processor modules can sometimes be used within a single rack to increase processing capability and available memory, often requiring a Common Memory Module for shared data.
Communication Ports: Processor modules typically feature serial communication ports (e.g., RS-232C) for programming, diagnostics, and communication with other devices or operator interfaces.
Diagnostics: Onboard LEDs (e.g., "BAT. OK," "OK," and 7-segment displays for fault codes) provide crucial diagnostic information about the module's status and potential errors.

Product Parameters

Specific parameters vary by module model, but here are general typical characteristics:

Microprocessor: Motorola 68010 (16-bit), Motorola 68020 (32-bit).
CPU Speed: Ranges from 8 MHz (e.g., for 57C430) to 25 MHz (e.g., for O-57435).
Memory:

RAM: Typically 135K to 150K available for application programs (e.g., for 57C430), or 512K parity RAM (e.g., for O-57435).
Non-Volatile Memory (NVRAM/EEPROM): For retaining program logic and retentive data during power loss, often backed by an onboard battery.

Programming Languages: BASIC, Control Block, Ladder Logic.
Communication Ports: Multiple RS-232C serial ports for programmer connection and application tasks. Some systems also supported industrial networks like R-Net.
I/O Capacity: While the processor doesn't have direct I/O, it manages I/O through connected I/O modules. A robust CPU can handle thousands of I/O points across the system.
Power Consumption: Typically low DC power consumption, e.g., around 300 mA @ 12 VDC or 150 mA @ 24 VDC for some gateway modules that interface with these processors.
Operating Temperature: Designed for industrial environments, typically 0°C to 50°C (32°F to 122°F).
Dimensions & Weight: Vary by specific model, but generally compact to fit into industrial control racks.

Product Advantages

Robustness and Reliability: RELIANCE modules are built to withstand harsh industrial environments, including temperature fluctuations, humidity, dust, and vibration, ensuring long-term stable operation.
Proven Technology: As legacy systems, they have a long track record of reliable performance in countless installations worldwide.
High Performance: Despite being older technology, these processors offer sufficient processing capabilities for many traditional industrial automation and control tasks.
Programmatic Flexibility: Support for multiple programming languages (BASIC, Control Block, Ladder Logic) provides versatility for different application complexities and programmer preferences.
Scalability: The modular rack-based design allows for adding more I/O modules and, in some cases, additional processor modules to expand the system's capabilities.
Diagnostic Features: Onboard status LEDs and error codes aid in quick troubleshooting and system diagnosis, reducing downtime.

Important Considerations

Legacy System: RELIANCE (now ABB) AutoMax systems are considered legacy. While spare parts and support might be available from third-party vendors, OEM support for these older lines can be limited.
Compatibility: Ensure compatibility with existing AutoMax racks, backplanes, I/O modules, and programming software.
Programming Environment: Programming and configuration often require specific older software tools that might run on older operating systems.
Maintenance: Battery backup for RAM is critical for retaining programs and data during power outages. Regular battery checks and replacements are essential.
Documentation: Comprehensive documentation (manuals, wiring diagrams) is vital for installation, programming, and troubleshooting.
Modernization: For new projects or significant expansions, consider the benefits of migrating to modern PLC or PAC platforms that offer enhanced features, connectivity, and cyber security.

Product Applications

RELIANCE Processor Modules were, and in many cases still are, widely used across various industrial sectors for their robust control capabilities:

Process Control: Regulating parameters like temperature, pressure, flow, and level in chemical plants, oil and gas facilities, and water treatment plants.
Manufacturing Automation: Controlling assembly lines, material handling systems (conveyors, robotics), and machine tools.
Power Generation and Distribution: Monitoring and controlling generators, switchgear, and protective relays in power plants and substations.
Pulp and Paper: Automation of paper machines, pulp processing, and converting operations.
Metals Industry: Control of rolling mills, furnaces, and other heavy machinery.
Building Automation (Large Scale): Managing HVAC systems, lighting, and energy in large industrial or commercial complexes.
