Two devices featuring the Arm® Cortex®-A9 processor (720 MHz) have been added to the CX7000 series from Beckhoff. The basic equipment includes a slot for a microSD card, an Ethernet interface as well as eight integrated multifunctional inputs and four integrated multifunctional outputs.
The CX7291 Embedded PC is suitable for BACnet/IP and is therefore ideal for applications in the fields of HVAC, lighting controllers, and security and fire alarm technology. The CX7293 Embedded PC, on the other hand, has a PROFINET RT Device interface. E-bus or K-bus terminals can be attached to both devices as required; the embedded PC automatically recognizes which system is connected during the start-up phase. The controller is programmed with TwinCAT 3 via the Ethernet interface. The devices in the CX72xx series have a higher CPU performance compared to the basic CX7000 series and integrate a capacitive 1-second UPS.
The CX7000 Embedded PCs open up the TwinCAT 3 world to small controllers too, providing a high level of computing power for the small controller sector. The extremely compact design – with dimensions of just 71 mm x 100 mm x 73 mm for the new devices – offers optimum scalability of PC-based control for typical small controller applications with a minimal footprint.
The CX7000 series now comprises seven different embedded PCs (CX7293 shown here).
