Product Description

The Beckhoff Embedded PC CX Series, model CX2040-0112 has a processor that is an Intel® Core™ i7 2715QE with a clock frequency of 2.1 GHz and has four cores. The flash memory of this model can be configured to either 20 GB or 40 GB CFast flashcards and can be configured to increase further depending on the chosen operating system.

The memory is 4 GB DDR3 RAM which is non-upgradable fixed, which is sufficient for many industrial scenarios. Networking options are well equipped with two 10/100/1000 Mbit/s Ethernet via RJ45, one DVI-I for video out, and four USB 2.0 for other peripherals. Another interface can be defined depending on the needs of a user. While some other models use the passive cooling system, the CX2040-0112 has an integrated fan with ball bearings and speed monitoring, that is more reliable and active. Features are LEDs that show the power state, TC state, flash access, and bus state. In addition, this model has onboard battery backup for the clock and calendar as well as a removable battery compartment. Organizing systems supported on this device are Windows Embedded Compact 7, Windows Embedded Standard 7 P, Windows 10 IoT Enterprise 2016 LTSB, and TwinCAT/BSD to fit various consumer requirements. Software for control is TwinCAT 2 runtime and TwinCAT 3 runtime (XAR).

The I/O connections are controlled through a power supply module that recognizes both E-bus and K-bus automatically. This embedded PC has a power supply voltage of 24 V dc with an acceptable voltage range of -15%/ + 20%. It has a maximum power consumption of 32W and a weight of about 1230g which makes it a powerful but rather lightweight solution for numerous industrial uses. Wake Industrial guarantees this motor with a one-year warranty.
