Product Description

The Beckhoff CX1001-0022 Embedded PC is designed to meet the needs of industrial applications. This model is built with a 266 MHz AMD Geode CPU and is specifically engineered for energy efficiency, which is ideal for industrial applications.

With a RAM of 128MB, the CX1001-0022 has the capability of performing highly demanding tasks that need large memory size for their execution. It is powered by a Windows XP Embedded operating system which allows it to work perfectly with Beckhoff’s TwinCAT software that is shipped with the control for motion and PLC control. The unit has an Ethernet (RJ-45) port to enable it to interconnect with other units within industrial networks. This model has a standard RS232 COM for serial communication ports to support old systems and peripherals. In this system, a Compact Flash (CF) slot is incorporated to allow for external storage options that can be used to store data even when the power is off. The power requirements are met with a 24 V DC input supplied by the CX1100 power supply module for stable and continuous power. The PC104 bus standard is used for possible future expansion of other Beckhoff CX modules for even greater flexibility and modularity of the system. It can be interfaced with other Beckhoff fieldbus modules such as Profibus, CANopen, DeviceNet, and EtherCAT and hence is versatile enough to be used in any industry.

The CX1001-0022 is designed with a modular approach that makes it easy to fit onto rails for installation in control cabinets in minimal space. The power LED indicator in green color is a sure way of telling that the unit is well-connected and in operation. Based on the element that it has a minimum recommended CF card space of 128 MB for the best performance, this Embedded PC is a perfect choice for use in controlling operations in industries in PLC and motion control applications. This product is covered by a one-year warranty from Wake Industrial.
