ABB - Electrification 2TLA020070R2100 - IDFIX is an identifier circuit which gives each Pluto an address on the bus. It contains an identification code which can be read by the system. The identification code is declared in the PLC program so that the correct part of the PLC program is executed by each specific Pluto. The use of IDFIX is mandatory in a multi-Pluto project, but voluntary if a unit works alone. If one Pluto in a multi-Pluto project needs to be replaced it is possible to let the new Pluto selfload the PLC program from another Pluto on the bus. The IDFIX will ensure that the new Pluto has the correct address on the bus.

Overview

The ABB IDFIX-RW (SKU: 2TLA020070R2100) is a programmable identification circuit designed for ABB Pluto Safety Relays. This module is essential for assigning a unique address to each Pluto unit within a multi-Pluto safety bus configuration. Unlike the pre-programmed IDFIX-R, the IDFIX-RW allows users to define the identification number, offering flexibility for system design and expansion. Its use is mandatory for projects involving multiple Pluto relays to ensure correct PLC program execution for each device. Key functionality includes enabling Pluto units to self-load their PLC program from another unit on the bus when a replacement is needed. This feature simplifies maintenance and reduces downtime, as manual PC configuration is not required for address assignment. The IDFIX-RW is compatible with both multi-Pluto systems and standalone Pluto units, though its primary benefit is realized in networked safety applications. This identification circuit connects directly to the Pluto Safety bus and operates on the relay's 24V DC input, requiring no separate power supply. It is designed for easy integration into control panels via DIN rail mounting. The IDFIX-RW is part of the broader ABB Pluto Safety relay ecosystem, supporting AS-i safety networks and Modbus communication. For advanced configurations, complementary modules like the IDFIX-DATA (SKU: 2TLA020070R2300) for AS-i safety code storage and the IDFIX-PROG series (SKUs: 2TLA020070R2400, 2TLA020070R2600) for Pluto program storage are available, enabling comprehensive safety architectures in demanding industrial environments.
  • Programmable identification number for flexible addressing
  • Mandatory for multi-Pluto safety bus configurations
  • Enables self-loading of PLC programs for easy unit replacement
  • Direct connection to Pluto Safety bus, no external power required
  • DIN rail mount for straightforward control panel integration
