Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1: Does this module work alone or need a base?
It needs a Momentum I/O base. The base supplies power and I/O connections.
Q2: What is the difference between 171CCC98020 and 171CCC96030C?
The 171CCC96030C has 50MHz clock and 512KB memory. This model has RAM but no listed flash size. Check your application needs.
Q3: Can I use this with Modbus RS485 devices?
Yes. Use a gateway to convert Modbus TCP to Modbus RTU.
Q4: What happens above 1000 meters altitude?
Performance may derate. Schneider recommends staying at or below 1000m.
Q5: My module does not power on. What should I check?
First, verify the I/O base has 5V DC power.
Second, reseat the module on the base.
Third, test with a known working base.
Q6: Can I program this with free software?
Schneider’s EcoStruxure Machine Expert Basic may work. Check compatibility first.
Q7: Is this module still in production?
The Momentum series is legacy. We supply new and refurbished units with warranty.
Q8: How many I/O points can this handle?
That depends on the I/O base. Typical Momentum bases support up to 32 I/O per drop.
Selection Guide
- Choose 171CCC98020 if:
You need basic Ethernet and Modbus communication.
Your temperature stays between 0°C and 40°C.
You want a lightweight, CE-certified module. - Do not choose this if:
You need high-speed processing (look for 50MHz models).
Your environment exceeds 40°C.
You require built-in flash memory for large programs. - Better alternatives:
For faster performance, choose 171CCC96030C (50MHz, 512KB flash).
For Quantum series needs, see Modicon Quantum.
