Information About CX1500-B310
The CX1500-B310 is part of Beckhoff’s CX1500 family of fieldbus connection modules, designed to expand the communication capabilities of CX series embedded PCs. This unit functions as a PROFIBUS slave, enabling seamless integration into PROFIBUS networks with support for DP, DP-V1, and DP-V2 profiles. It offers data rates from 9.6 kbaud up to 12 Mbaud and can exchange up to 244 bytes each for inputs and outputs within the process image. Compact in size and equipped with a standard 9-pin D-sub connector, it ensures reliable connectivity while maintaining compliance with industrial EMC and vibration standards.
Key Features:
-
PROFIBUS Slave Functionality: Allows the CX embedded PC to operate as a slave device in PROFIBUS networks, enabling seamless integration into distributed automation architectures where centralized control is not required.
-
Advanced PROFIBUS Standards: Supports PROFIBUS DP, DP-V1, and DP-V2 (MC), ensuring compatibility with both basic cyclic data exchange and advanced functions such as acyclic communication, alarms, and motion control synchronization.
-
High-Speed Data Transfer: Capable of communication at rates between 9.6 kbaud and 12 Mbaud, offering flexibility to adapt to various system requirements and ensuring stable operation in large networks.
-
Large Process Image Capacity: Provides up to 244 bytes of input and 244 bytes of output data, allowing extensive signal exchange per cycle and meeting the needs of complex automation tasks.
-
Compact Modular Design: With dimensions of only 38 × 100 × 91 mm, the module fits easily into control cabinets and saves valuable space while maintaining full functionality.
-
Standard Bus Interface: Uses a 9-pin D-sub female connector, making PROFIBUS cabling straightforward and compliant with widely used industrial standards.
-
Robust Industrial Compliance: Conforms to EN 61000-6-2 and EN 61000-6-4 EMC standards as well as vibration and shock resistance requirements, ensuring dependable performance in harsh industrial environments.
-
TwinCAT 2 Software Compatibility: Designed to work with Beckhoff’s TwinCAT 2 software platform, enabling easy configuration, monitoring, and integration with existing automation systems.
The CX1500-B310 delivers the reliability and precision required for integrating PROFIBUS communication into Beckhoff CX embedded PC systems.
