Ethernet-Controller CX90x0
The CX9000 is a compact, top hat rail-mountable Ethernet Controller with direct connection to the Beckhoff I/O
systems in IP 20. The CX90x0 is available in four basic versions: two version for Bus Terminals with K-bus, the other
two for EtherCAT Terminals with E-bus. The CX90x0 comprises the CPU (available in 266 MHz and 533 MHz), the
internal flash memory with two configuration options, the main memory (RAM) (available in two different sizes), and
NOVRAM as non-volatile memory. Two Ethernet RJ 45 interfaces are also part of the basic configuration. These
interfaces are connected to an internal switch and offer a simple option for creating a line topology without the need
for additional Ethernet switches. A memory medium in Compact Flash format I and II is available as an optional
module.(only in combination with system interface CX90x0-N010) The operating system is Microsoft Windows CE.
The TwinCAT automation software transforms a CX90x0 system into powerful PLC and Motion Control system that
can be operated with or without visualization. Further system interfaces can be connected to the CPU module ex
works. The CX9000-N010 option can be connected to Beckhoff Control Panels or standard monitors with DVI or VGA
input via the DVI and USB interfaces. Devices such as printer, scanner, mouse, keyboard, mass storage, CR-RW etc.
can be connected via the USB2.0 interfaces. The module CX90x0-N030 offers two serial RS232 interfaces with a
maximum transfer speed of 115 kbaud. These two interfaces can be implemented as RS422/RS485, in which case
they are identified as CX90x0-N031.
