Description
Product Overview
The ABB IMMPI01 is a multifunction processor interface board designed to bridge communication between host computers and ABB INICT03 control modules within Bailey Infi 90 and Symphony Plus environments.
It functions as a system-level communication gateway, enabling structured data exchange between supervisory computing platforms and industrial control hardware. The module is implemented as a single-slot PCB with embedded microprocessor logic for protocol handling and signal routing.
