Hi,
for our projects we often use the Triconex PLC with SIL certificate and
direct connected/integrated to I/A System via Nodebus.
Because peer to peer with the Triconex is possible, we safe signal =
doubling
and additionally engineering work.
Also you have the Triconex diagnosys direct on the operator station
available.
For this solution ask your key account, I have only german =
documentation.
