Product Description:
The 5C5601.11 controller unit is produced by B & R Automation and belongs to the 5CS Provit Controller System Units series. It serves as an embedded PC platform that supervises machine sequences, user interfaces, and fieldbus gateways inside automated production cells. By housing the processor, memory, and I/O within a fanless enclosure, it integrates directly into control cabinets and interfaces with drives and operator panels.
At the core of the motherboard, the Intel 440BX chipset coordinates data flow among the CPU, peripheral bus, and memory installed in three PC100 DIMM sockets. A compatible processor is fitted through the Socket 370 connector, and the memory array can be expanded up to 512 MB, allowing larger recipe files and trend buffers. Graphics are handled by a Chips & Technologies 69000 controller backed by 2 MB of dedicated video RAM. This graphics controller drives both the FPD PanelLink channel for flat-panel displays and the 15-pin VGA D-Sub interface for legacy CRT monitors. Two E-IDE channels support internal storage devices, while a separate slot accepts an external disk drive.
For network communication, the built-in Intel 82559ER controller provides a single RJ45 twisted-pair port that negotiates data rates of 10/100 Mbit/s with deterministic latency for PLC messaging. The unit also offers two serial ports for RS-232 or RS-422 links, one parallel port for printers or legacy I/O, and two USB ports for panel keyboards, barcode scanners, or service laptops. Because no remote IDE interface is provided, all removable media must connect through the local E-IDE bus or the externally accessible drive bay. The available I/O density suits typical motion or process stations, with the chipset allocating separate interrupt requests so that serial, USB, VGA, and Ethernet transactions occur without resource conflicts.
