Ethernet delivers interoperability
Using Ethernet as its communications backbone, Schneider’s Momentum M1E Processor delivers all the performance benefits of real-time control. The open architecture of the M1E processor made it the first truly universal controller for distributed I/0, compatible with all many of the major fieldbus and control network environments.

Ethernet power
An integral Ethernet port in the M1E allows users to perform a wide range of functions over Ethernet, including data acquisition, peer-to-peer communications and I/O scanning. Five embedded web pages enable the use of a standard web browser to read status and diagnostic information from the processor.

THE distributed control solution
The award winning M1E not only seamlessly connects I/0 and other control devices via open standards; it delivers the performance of a full function, real-time controller for stand-alone and distributed system configurations in one money-saving unit.

Conformal Coating
Selected I/O bases, processors and communication modules are available with conformal coating. This makes the Modicon Momentum perfect for those applications with harsh or humid environments that require a small footprint. The flexible nature of this product offering will allow it to meet the needs of many, diverse applications.
