The CPU supports multi-tasking with up to 32 tasks and cycle times down to 1 ms. It includes built-in web server for remote diagnostics, email notification, and data logging to SD card. The dual Ethernet ports can be configured as a switch for daisy-chaining multiple devices, or as separate IP addresses for network segmentation. The module also supports hot-standby redundancy with a second CPU.
Programming is done with Automation Builder, which includes CoDeSys V3 runtime. The CPU supports OPC UA server for secure data exchange with higher-level IT systems. It also features an integrated FTP server for file transfer and a SQL client for database logging.
This processor is suitable for automotive assembly lines, water treatment SCADA systems, power distribution automation, and large material handling systems. Its high performance and redundancy features make it a reliable choice for critical processes.
