Detailed Technical Specifications
1. Processing Power & Core Architecture
CPU Type: Powerful 32-bit RISC processor.
Clock Speed: 700 MHz (significantly more powerful than the older PM861 counterpart).
Memory:
RAM (User Program & Data): 128 MB SDRAM.
Flash Memory (for OS and Firmware): 32 MB.
Performance: Designed for complex and demanding control applications with high I/O count and fast execution requirements.

2. Physical & Environmental Specifications
Form Factor: A single-width module designed for installation in an AC 800M Controller Unit (e.g., CI861, CI862, CI863, CI865).
Dimensions (H x W x D): Approx. 130 mm x 55 mm x 117 mm (without connectors).
Weight: Approx. 0.3 kg.
Operating Temperature: 0°C to +60°C (32°F to 140°F).
Storage Temperature: -40°C to +70°C (-40°F to 158°F).
Relative Humidity: 5% to 95% (non-condensing).
Protection Rating: IP20 (must be installed in a protective cabinet).
3. Electrical Specifications
Power Supply: The PM864A itself is powered by the backplane of its parent Controller Unit (e.g., CI861). It does not have a separate power connection.
Backplane Power Consumption: Typically 7.5 W (max 9 W).
4. Communication & Interfaces
The PM864A's communication capabilities are provided by pairing it with various Communication Interface (CI) modules. The controller itself has connectors on its front for these modules.
On-board Ports:
Ethernet Port: 1 x 10/100 Mbit/s port for engineering station connection (used for configuration and programming via Control Builder M).
Serial Port (COM): 1 x RS-232C port for service and maintenance purposes.
Expansion via CIs: To communicate with I/O, networks, and other devices, it requires Communication Interface modules like:
CI861: Provides two channels for S800 I/O (Profibus DP).
CI862: Provides PROFINET I/O Controller and Ethernet/IP Scanner functionality.
CI863: Provides redundant Ethernet for peer-to-peer communication.
CI865: Provides redundant PROFIBUS DP Master connectivity.
5. Software & Programming
Engineering Tool: Control Builder M (Professional edition is required for full configuration).
Programming Languages: Fully supports all IEC 61131-3 languages:
Function Block Diagram (FBD)
Ladder Diagram (LD)
Structured Text (ST)
Instruction List (IL)
Sequential Function Chart (SFC)
Firmware: The controller runs a real-time operating system. The firmware version must be compatible with the version of Control Builder M and the System 800xA extension versions being used.
6. Key Features
High Availability: Supports redundant (hot standby) configuration when paired with a second PM864A controller and appropriate communication modules (e.g., CI863). This allows for bumpless switchover in case of a primary controller failure.
Extensive I/O Support: Can manage a large number of distributed I/Os (S800 I/O, S900 I/O, etc.) via various fieldbuses.
Integration: The central brain of an 800xA node, enabling seamless integration of control, safety, electrical, and information management within a single operator station view.
Cybersecurity: Features like role-based access control, audit trails, and support for network security protocols to meet modern industrial security standards.
