Inter-Module Bus
Features:
- Expander Interface Module
- Trusted TMR extender interface module
- As the "master" gateway module, the T8311C resides within the master Trusted controller chassis
The module provides fault containment for the Expander Bus, the module itself and the IMB in the Controller Chassis, ensuring that the effects of these potential faults are localised and system availability maximised.
The module is fault tolerant with HIFT TMR architecture. Comprehensive diagnostics, monitoring and testing provide rapid fault identification. Hot standby and module spare slot configurations are supported, allowing automatic and manual repair strategies.
The T8311C ICS Triplex Expander Interface Module may still be available for purchase and support from Moore Automated Company beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).

The Inter-Module Bus handles the following triplicated signals:
Data - 8-bit, bi-directional bus.
Control - Bus clocks, module enables and bus direction control.
System Watchdog - System Watchdog signal to the modules.
Power Fail - System power fail warning to modules.
Slot - Indicating the left or right TrustedTM TMR Expander Processor slot
position to the TrustedTM TMR Processor.
Chassis ID - a 4-bit code indicating the chassis number or id.
