Applications
- PROFINET communication: Operates as a PROFINET IO Controller or PROFINET IO device and supports communication with connectable IO devices.
- OPC UA data exchange: The OPC UA Server supports data access for read, write, and subscribe operations, plus method calls; a Basic runtime license is required.
- Digital and analog signal processing: Acquires digital and 0 to +10 V analog signals and controls relay and 0 to 20 mA analog outputs.
- Position-controlled positioning: Supports controlled positioning and up to 8 position-controlled positioning axes.
Key Features
- Digital I/O: 14 integrated digital inputs and 10 relay outputs; the inputs are 24 V DC and the relay outputs support up to 2 A with resistive load.
- Analog I/O: 2 analog inputs support 0 to +10 V, and 2 analog outputs support 0 to 20 mA.
- PROFINET interfaces: 2 RJ 45 ports with an integrated switch; PROFINET IO Controller, PROFINET IO device, and transmission rates up to 100 Mbit/s are supported.
- Supply and protection: DC supply: 20.4 V to 28.8 V DC permissible range; reverse polarity protection is present. Protection degree: IP20.
- Communication protocols: Supports SIMATIC communication, Open IE communication, OPC UA Server, PROFIBUS with CM 1243-5 or CM 1242-5, AS-Interface with CM 1243-2, MODBUS, and TCP/IP.
- Diagnostics and installation: The CPU has a diagnostic buffer, RUN/STOP, ERROR, and MAINT LEDs, 2 configurable traces, and supports up to 8 signal modules and 3 communication modules per system.
