CX8050, CX8051 - Introduction

In the basic version the CX80xx contains a 512 MB MicroSD Card. A fieldbus interface, an Ethernet interface and a K-bus or E-bus interface are included as standard.

The smallest task time to be used is 1 ms (a task time of 10 ms to 50 ms is recommended for the I/O data, further tasks can also be set slower). When using short cycle times, the total system utilization rate is to be observed. If too short a cycle time is selected, the Web visualization and remote desktop may operate very slowly or cause timeouts. The user is responsible for projecting and configuring his system such that it is not overloaded.

CX8050

The CX8050 is a controller with a CANopen master interface. Apart from functioning as a CANopen master, CAN-Layer-2 communication is alternatively also possible. Alternatively K-bus or E-bus terminals can be series-connected; the CX8050 automatically detects which system is connected during the start-up phase. The controller is programmed via the Ethernet interface.

CX8051

The CX8051 is a control system with CANopen slave interface. The CANopen address is set via two rotary selection switches. The CX8051 offers automatic baud rate detection. Alternatively K-bus or E-bus terminals can be series-connected; the CX8051 automatically detects which system is connected during the start-up phase. The controller is programmed via the Ethernet interface.
