The 540CMD01 is a module of the RTU540 product line consist-

ing of a communication unit (CMU) and a galvanic isolated wide
range power supply (PSM) in a metal DIN rail housing.

USB 2.0 WRB

The essential tasks are:
– Managing and controlling of the RTU520 I/O modules via 1 2 I/O
the serial I/O bus Interface
– Reading Process events from the input modules.
– Send commands to the output modules. Figure 1: Function block diagram 540CMD01

– Communicating with control systems and local HMI sys-

tems via the serial interfaces (RS232) and the Ethernet
10/100BaseT interfaces. Characteristics
– Communication with Sub-RTU’s, IED’s or multimeter de-
vices via the interfaces (RS485) and the Ethernet interfaces. On the applied ARM cortex A8 controller AM3352 a real-time

The unit has a battery buffered real time clock (RTC). System relevant configuration files are stored in the non-volatile
flash memory card (removable SD-card™) in order to guarantee
a valid system configuration after Power on Reset (PoR).

A battery buffered RTC is used to keep an exact time during

power off state.
The communication unit provides the following interfaces:
– Communication Port 1 ... 4 (CP1 ... CP4): serial interfaces
according RS232C or RS485 with RJ45 connectors.
– Ethernet interface 1 and 2 (E1 & E2): 10/100BaseT with
RJ45 connector.
– USB 2.0 device interface for diagnosis and maintenance
purposes.
– USB 2.0 host interface for future extensions.
– WRB I/O bus interface for local communication with the I/O-
modules
