Saia PCD4.U100 upgrade kit
The Saia PCD4.U100 module makes it possible to connect existing Saia PCD4 I/O-modules to the latest Saia PCD3
and PCD2.M5 systems. By upgrading to the latest Saia PCD® system, you can increase the availability and reliability
of the system. It is also possible to enhance systems with Automation Server functions and thus prepare them for
the future. Installation is easy: Replace Saia PCD4 CPU with PCD4.U100, install Saia PCD3 or PCD2 CPU, connect new
or existing PCD4 I/Os and you’re done.
Regardless of whether IL or FUPLA programming is used, the user programs can be directly transferred to new CPUs
with small program adjustments in PG5, i.e., minimum programming effort.

Features
`
Increase system availability with a minimum of effort: Replace old PCD4 CPUs that are no longer available with the latest Saia PCD®
CPUs. The reliability and availability of an existing system or controller can be increased in a time-saving manner and cost-efficiently
by using a new CPU.
`
Benefits of the Automation Server functions: NewWeb/IT functions can also be made available in existing systems with PCD4 systems.
Existing program structures can be copied across with small program adjustments and can still be used. Add new PCD2/3 I/O-modules
to PCD4 systems. Up to 8 additional PCD2/3 I/O-modules can be integrated into existing systems by replacing the CPUs.
`
Retaining the wiring: The system can be upgraded without costly rewiring of the I/Os.
`
Short upgrade period: The CPU is replaced quickly and the system will be available again in a very short period of time. This way the
wiring effort can be delayed to a later point in time.
