Core Information of 140CRP81100
140CRP81100 is a Profibus communication module from Schneider Electric’s Quantum Unity CPU
series, designed to enable Profibus network integration for Quantum automation controllers. It uses a
direct CPU driver interface, supporting local backplane communication and providing reliable
Profibus connectivity for industrial automation tasks such as data exchange and distributed control.
●Model Number: 140CRP81100
●Product Series: Schneider Electric Quantum Communication Modules
●Core Function: Acts as a Profibus interface for Quantum Unity CPUs, facilitating data transmission
between the CPU and Profibus network devices, enabling integration of Quantum controllers into
Profibus-based industrial networks.
●Key Features: Direct CPU driver interface, local backplane support, no loadable software required for
Unity, and dedicated bus power consumption.
●Application Scope: Industrial automation systems using Schneider Quantum Unity CPUs (e.g.,
140CPU31110, 140CPU43412A, 140CPU53414A/B), suitable for Profibus networked control,
distributed I/O communication, and process automation.
Operational Traits
●Software Requirement: No loadable software is required when used with Unity software; compatible
with the host CPU’s native software ecosystem (Unity, Concept, ProWORX).
●Network Functionality: Enables the host Quantum CPU to communicate with Profibus network
devices (e.g., Profibus masters/slaves, I/O modules) for data exchange, control commands, and status
monitoring.
●Integration with CPU Services: Works with the Quantum CPU’s backplane to leverage the
controller’s processing capabilities, supporting seamless integration with local and distributed
control tasks.
