System Compatibility and Upgrades
Features:
- Communication Interface Module
- Supports up to 4 Communications Interface modules per Trusted system rack
- Occupies a single standard controller or expander chassis slot
The communication interface, provides a range of communication services for the controller, minimizing communication loading of the TMR processor. The module allows communications with other Trusted systems, the engineering workstation and/or third-party equipment.
The module is user-configurable and can support multiple communication media. The module has dual Ethernet and four serial ports accessible from the rear using the T8153 communications interface adapter, along with a diagnostic port accessible from the front faceplate.
The T8151C ICS Triplex Communication Interface Module may still be available for purchase and support from Moore Automated Company beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).

Important Notice: Other accessories, manuals, cables, calibration data, software, etc. are not included with this equipment unless listed in the above stock item description. All prices are shown in USD.
The communications interface can be installed in any single width slot of a controller or expander chassis. Only modules installed in the controller chassis will support peer to peer.
When adding or replacing communication modules in a running system, the following rules must be strictly followed to avoid configuration incompatibility:
1.Firmware Compatibility: The T8151C firmware must be fully or highly compatible with the system's main processor (MP) version.
2.Legacy Versions: The T8151C can directly replace older, unpackaged T8151 or T8151B versions.
3.Upgrade Procedure: If deploying an upgraded development toolset, the T8151C firmware should be systematically flashed to avoid communication blockage. Depending on the baseline code, communication blockage may require performing a structured system shutdown procedure.
