Product Description:

The 5C5001.11 industrial PC card is produced by B&R Automation and belongs to the 5CS Provit Controller System Units series. Installed inside a control cabinet, this board supplies the computational resources that schedule machine sequences, coordinate fieldbus traffic, and support local operator panels. By combining standard PC architecture with dedicated industrial connectors, it runs motion logic, data logging, and HMI software that integrate multiple automation layers into one platform.

At the hardware level, the board centers on an Intel 440BX chipset; this northbridge-southbridge pair governs bus timing, cache support, and overall peripheral connectivity. A Socket 370 allows installation of Intel Celeron or Pentium III CPUs that match the platform’s thermal envelope. Three memory connectors, specified as 3 × DIMM PC100, accept synchronous DRAM and allow expansion up to 512 MB, so recipe files and trend buffers can be retained locally. For networked control cells, an Intel 82559ER Fast Ethernet controller on an RJ45 jack negotiates 10 or 100 Mbit/s links over shielded twisted-pair category 5 cable, enabling deterministic peer-to-peer messaging between drives, PLCs, and supervisory computers. An E-IDE slot hosts one internal storage device, while a front-panel connector accommodates an external disk drive for removable media.

Local visualization is handled by a Chips & Technologies 69000 graphics processor. It routes pixel data simultaneously to flat-panel digital lines and to analog monitors through the FPD (Panellink) + CRT (15-pin VGA DSUB) outputs. Frame-buffer depth is fixed at 2 MB, which is sufficient for 1024 × 768 HMI screens with 16-bit color. Two buffered RS-232 channels offer 16-byte FIFOs for barcode scanners, and the parallel interface supports SPP, EPP, ECP modes for printers or digital I/O expanders. Additional features include two front-panel USB ports and an external drive bay for quick recipe transfer by removable media.
