CX9000/CX9010-A001/N0xx | System interfaces

A number of optional interface modules are available for the CX9000/CX9010 Embedded PCs that can be connected to the basic module
ex factory. The system interfaces cannot be retrofitted or expanded in the field. They are supplied ex factory in the specified configuration
and cannot be separated from the CPU module. The power supply of the system interface modules is ensured via the internal bus.
The CX90x0-N010 option connects Beckhoff Control Panels or standard monitors with DVI or VGA input via the DVI or USB interfaces.
Devices such as printer, scanner, mouse, keyboard, etc. can be connected via the USB 2.0 interfaces. The CX90x0-N030 module offers two
additional serial RS232 interfaces with a maximum transmission speed of 115 kbaud. Alternatively, the two serial interfaces are also available
as RS422/RS485 signal types (CX90x0-N031). The CX90x0-N070 4-port USB hub extends the number of available USB 2.0 ports, whereby each
port can handle a load of max. 500 mA (however, not all four at the same time). In this way, a total of six USB interfaces per CX are available
to the user.
If additional mass storage is required, the CX90x0-A001 extension module provides a Compact Flash interface for type I or II CF cards.
Unlike other system interfaces, this module can be upgraded in the field. Cards may only be inserted or removed when the system is switched off.

The use of CX1010, CX1020 or CX1030 systems with fieldbus master modules enables the segment-like construction of control structures in ex-
tensive plants and machines using all Beckhoff fieldbus components (Bus Couplers, Bus Terminal Controllers, Drive Technology, etc.). The parallel
operation of several identical or different masters is possible, e.g. two PROFIBUS masters or a PROFIBUS master and a SERCOS II master simul-
taneously in a system. In the case of mixed operation of master and slave connections, CX systems act as intelligent gateways between different
fieldbuses: data are received, processed and fed into other fieldbuses. Compared with the Beckhoff PC Fieldbus Cards, the performance data
of the fieldbus master modules are almost identical; CX variants are single-channel, however. Master or slave connections network several CX
systems with one another strictly deterministically via the fieldbus level. CX fieldbus modules can be retrofitted/exchanged by adding them to
existing CX systems. The fieldbus connections are powered via the PC/104 bus. The scanning and recognising of the modules, the parameterisa-
tion, the configuration of the connected I/O components and the online diagnosis of the process/fieldbus status take place in the TwinCAT System
Manager.

CX1500-Bxx0 | Slave fieldbus connections for CX10x0

Fieldbus slave modules enable the use of a CX1010, CX1020 or CX1030 system as a subordinate local controller for the construction of complex
or modular systems. External process data are received from the master and processed, or data from its own process peripherals are returned
to the master controller directly or processed. The interface between the respective bus system and the CX CPU module is the DPRAM, which is
addressed by the CPU module via the internal ISA bus. The parallel operation of several identical or different slave connections is possible, e.g.
two PROFIBUS slaves or a PROFIBUS slave and a SERCOS interface slave simultaneously in a system. In the case of mixed operation of master
and slave connections, CX systems act as intelligent gateways between different fieldbuses: data are received, processed and fed into other field-
buses. The CX fieldbus modules are single-channel. Master or slave connections network several CX systems with one another strictly determin-
istically via the fieldbus level. CX fieldbus modules can be retrofitted/exchanged by adding them to existing CX systems. The fieldbus connections
are powered via the PC/104 bus. The integration of the fieldbus connections in TwinCAT 2 automation software is simple, as usual. The scanning
and recognising of the modules, the parameterisation, the configuration of the connected I/O components and the online diagnosis of the pro-
cess/fieldbus status take place in the TwinCAT 2 System Manager.

CX1100-09x0 | UPS modules for CX10x0

The CX1100-09x0 UPS module (uninterruptible power supply) for CX1010, CX1020 or CX1030 CPUs and the connected CX components ensures
that important data are stored safely by the user software if the external voltage fails. As opposed to battery operated methods, the use of the
latest capacitor technologies enables absolute freedom from maintenance and fast charging. By storing the data, for example on a Compact
Flash card, in NOVRAM or via the network in a database, the machine or the process can be placed in a defined condition during the retention
time of the UPS and the operating system can be shut down. The retention time can be set via a rotary switch or via software. UPS settings are
made and its status messages are output via a DPRAM interface. The functionality of the UPS is therefore independent of the operating system
to be used. No driver software is required. The TwinCAT System Manager recognises the UPS module automatically, and the signals are available
to the PLC programmer. The module is installed by simply adding it to a CX system in addition to wiring a 24 V DC supply line, and it can also be
retrofitted on site. The 24 V DC output voltage of the UPS is protected against short circuit and overload. When dimensioning the UPS, the power
consumption of the CX device being powered must be considered. For the supply, a regulated 24 V DC power supply unit with an output current
of at least 4 A is required. The CX1100-0920 UPS is recommended for UPS use with a CX1020 and the CX1100-0930 UPS for use with a CX1030.

for CX2000
Each of the four CX2100 power supply modules has an LC display with 2 x 16 characters. It is controlled via TwinCAT. All power supply modules
feature automatic K-bus/E-bus detection and therefore support both I/O systems. The standard power supply CX2100-0004 provides a maximum
output of 45 W. The more powerful CX2100-0014 power supply unit offers a maximum output of 90 W. It has to be used for CX2040 quad-core
CPU systems. 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 it can be equipped with active ventilation (fan option) to provide the normally fanless CX2020/CX2030
with a better heat dissipation for operation in different ambient conditions. The CX2100-0904 module also features integrated capacitive
UPS. In the event of a power failure this enables the system to save data on the storage medium and then shut down in an orderly manner.
The CX2100-0914 module can be used to charge external battery packs in order to provide backup power for the system and external compo-
nents such as Control Panels. All power supply units from the CX2000 series are in principle passively cooled and fanless.

The system modules for the CX2000 family are connected to the CPU on the left-hand side via a multi-pin connector. Internally they are con-
nected via PCI Express. Up to four modules can be connected in any order.
The CX2500-0020 audio module has jack plug (5 x 3.5 mm) and cinch plug for digital signals (SPDIF). Up to 7.1 multi-channel audio can
be used. Serial interfaces can be added with the modules CX2500-0030 (RS232) and CX2500-0031 (RS422/RS485). The CX2500-0060 module
provides two further independent Gbit Ethernet interfaces.
The CX2500-0061 Power over Ethernet module supports devices with PoE class 0, 1, 2, 3 and 4 in accordance with the PoE standard
IEEE 802.3af-2003. The maximum PoE power output is 15.4 W. The PoE supply voltage is generated internally, no external power supply is neces-
sary. In the case of an overload of the CX2500-0061, the PoE supply shuts down for two seconds, then restarts. The diagnostic LEDs PWR, PoE,
PM1 and PM2 provide information about the type of PoE supply (mode A or B) as well as about the PoE class reported by the powered device.
The CX2500-0070 module can be used to add up to four further USB 3.0 interfaces.

The CX2550-0x79 system modules are attachments for the CX2000 Embedded PC series. They transmit USB signals via a CAT.5E cable over dis-
tances of up to max. 50 m. The CX2550-0179 system module transmits USB signals according to the USB 1.1 standard (full speed, max. 12 Mbit/s)
while the CX2550-0279 system module transmits USB signals according to the USB 2.0 standard (high speed, max. 480 Mbit/s). Both modules
can be attached at the right-hand side of a CX20x0-CPU and are placed between the power supply unit and the CPU. The internal connection is
made via a USB port of the CX20x0-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 visibil-
ity the LEDs of the RJ45 sockets are redundantly implemented on the lower diagnostic LEDs.
The CX2550-0179 and CX2550-0279 modules supplement the CX2000 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 CX2550-0179 system module is suit-

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 CX2500-M310 fieldbus master module assumes the function
of a PROFIBUS master, while the CX2500-M510 is a CANopen master. Each of these modules occupies a PCI Express lane, so that a total of
four modules can be connected in any desired combination to the left side of a CX2000 group. Compared with the Beckhoff PCIe Fieldbus Cards,
the technical data of the fieldbus master modules are almost identical, but with single channels. The parallel operation of several identical or
different masters is possible, e.g. two PROFIBUS masters or a PROFIBUS master and a CANopen master. In the case of mixed operation of master
and slave connections, CX systems act as intelligent gateways between different fieldbuses: data are received, processed and fed into other

External process data are received from the master and processed, or data from its own process peripherals are returned to the master controller
directly or processed.
The CX2500-B310 fieldbus slave module assumes the function of a PROFIBUS slave, while the CX2500-B510 is a CANopen slave. Each of
these modules occupies a PCI Express lane, so that a total of four of these modules can be connected in any desired combination to the left side
of a CX2000 group. The fieldbus slave modules are single-channel modules. The CX2500-B310 fieldbus slave module for PROFIBUS can present
itself to the master as a multiple (max. quadruple) virtual slave station, resulting in a four-fold increase in the quantity of exchanged process
data.
The parallel operation of several identical or different slaves is possible, e.g. two PROFIBUS slaves or a PROFIBUS slave and a CANopen slave.
In the case of mixed operation of master and slave connections, CX systems act as intelligent gateways between different fieldbuses: data are
received, processed and fed into other fieldbuses.
Master or slave connections network several CX systems with one another strictly deterministically via the fieldbus level. CX fieldbus modules
can be retrofitted/exchanged by adding them to existing CX systems. The scanning and recognising of the modules, the parameterisation, the con-
figuration of the connected I/O components and the online diagnosis of the process/fieldbus status take place in the TwinCAT System Manager.
