Product Description

The CX1030-0000 is a one-of-a-kind model from Beckhoff's Embedded PC CX Series, specifically built to fulfill industrial computing requirements. It is powered by an Intel® Pentium® M processor with a clock rate of 1.8 GHz and a single core, making it suited for the majority of automation and control applications.

This model has a Compact Flash card slot and comes with a 128MB card that can be expanded, allowing customers to modify the storage amount based on their needs. The main memory capacity is 256MB DDR RAM, with the option of upgrading it to 1 GB at the manufacturer, which is adequate for more powerful applications. Networking is done through two RJ45 ports supporting 10/100M bps and an internal switch to improve network management. The cooling system is also a prominent aspect that entails a cooling module and a fan cartridge with speed control that is easy to replace to ensure the system remains at optimal temperatures even under stress. It has LED Indicators of power, LAN link/activity, TC status, and flash access indicators that help in the easy diagnosis of the system. There are also provisions for an internal battery-backed clock to ensure that the time and date are correctly kept in the unit, especially for applications that require correct timekeeping. The operating systems used are Windows Embedded CE 6 and Windows Embedded Standard 2009 that is suitable for various industrial use.

Control software involves TwinCAT 2 PLC runtime, NC PTP runtime, as well as NC I runtime to provide enhanced control in various operations. The I/O connections are controlled by a power supply module which provides E-bus, K-bus, or K-bus/IP-Link connection, thus making the system easily adaptable to any available system. Power is drawn from the system bus using CX1100 series power modules with a maximum power consumption of 32 W; that is why the CX1030-0000 is an efficient and powerful solution for industrial computing tasks. Wake Industrial provides this product with a one-year warranty.
