CX8090 - Introduction

The CX8090 is a control system with a switched Ethernet port. It supports protocols such as real-time Ethernet, ADS UDP/TCP, Modbus TCP client/server or open TCP/IP-UDP/IP communication. K-Bus or E-Bus terminals can be attached as required; the CX8090 automatically recognizes the type of I/O system connected during the start-up phase. The control system is programmed with TwinCAT via the fieldbus interface or the additional Ethernet interface.

In the basic version the CX80xx contains a MicroSD card with 512 MB. Two Ethernet interfaces and a  K-Bus respectively E-Bus interface belong to the basic version.

The shortest usable task time is 1 ms (for I/O data a task time from 1 to 50 ms is recommended, further tasks can also be set slower). For lower task times pay attention to the overall system load. If the task time is set to low web visualization and remote desktop may work very slowly or cause time outs. The customer is responsible on his own to project and configure his system in a way, that it will not be overloaded!
