🔁 Redundancy Features
| Feature | Details |
|---|---|
| Configuration | Two VIM2s configured as a redundant pair (requires redundancy link cable) |

| Notification | Clear operator notification on switchover at the operator display |
| Licensing | Each VIM in a redundant pair requires a separate Ethernet I/O driver license |

📝 Additional Notes
- I/O Simulation: Requires DeltaV Mimic and Railbus Driver; supports up to 64 DeltaV I/O modules per controller for testing and training.
- Ethernet I/O Integration: Supports high-speed communication with devices like PLCs, motor control centers, and weigh scales.
- DST Licensing: Follows emulated card type rules (e.g., 1 DST per DeviceNet/Profibus device for up to 16 signals; additional signals count as DSTs).
- Limitations: Only one Ethernet I/O driver can be loaded at a time; PROFINET does not support isochronous real-time communication.
