CX20x2 | IntelВ® XeonВ® D

The CX2100-0014 power supply module is used for supplying power to the components (CPU modules, system and extension modules) of a CX20xx system. The power supply module is controlled via TwinCAT. An FSTN LC display with 2 x 16 characters and a selector switch as well as an enter key allow the querying of internal status values as well as self-created display parameters or menus with and without input options. EtherCAT or Bus Terminals can be connected on the right-hand side – the respective bus system is detected automatically and operated by the CPU. Power is supplied to the E-bus or K-bus electronics in the I/O terminals by an integrated but internally separate power supply unit with 2 A at 5 V DC. The CX2100-0014 is in principle passively cooled, has no fan and is intended for operation in the extended temperature range from -25 to +60°C. The powerful CX2100-0014 power supply unit offers a maximum output of 130 W. Thanks to its wider housing front the CX2100-0014 also allows passive ventilation through the front and is thus also suitable for horizontal mounting positions. Optionally, the CX2020 or CX2030 systems can be equipped with active ventilation (fan option) for better heat dissipation, thus enabling operation in different ambient conditions in combination with a CX2100-0014 power supply unit.

The CX2500-Mxxx fieldbus master modules are left-sided attachments for the Embedded PC series CX20xx, CX52x0, CX53x0 and CX56x0. The use of systems with fieldbus master modules enables the segment-like construction of control structures in extensive plants and machines using further fieldbus components (Bus Couplers, Bus Terminal Controllers, Drive Technology, etc.).

The CX2550-0179 and CX2550-0279 modules supplement the CX20xx series by the function of the CU8800 and CU8801 USB extension for Industrial PCs and enable the direct connection of Beckhoff Control Panels with USB Extended interface. The CX2550-0x79 system modules are attachments for the CX20xx Embedded PC series. They transmit USB signals via a Cat.5E cable over distances of up to max. 50В m. Both modules can be attached at the right-hand side of a CX20xx-CPU and are placed between the power supply unit and the CPU. The internal connection is made via a USB port of the CX20xx-CPU, this way, no PCI Express resources are required or used. No additional drivers are required for operation since signal transformation and forwarding of the USB signals take place at the electrical level and are completely transparent for the operating system. Each module has four diagnostic LEDs, which indicate the status of the transmission standard in addition to the power. For better visibility the LEDs of the RJ45 sockets are redundantly implemented on the lower diagnostic LEDs.
