Product Description:
The 2CP200.60-1 central processing module is produced by B & R Automation and belongs to the System 2010 Controllers series. As a plug-in CPU card for compact PLC racks, it executes user programs, manages memory resources, and coordinates the fieldbus interfaces that link remote I/O and drive hardware. Within an automation cell, the unit provides deterministic task scheduling, making it the focal point for machine sequence control, data handling, and supervisory communication.
This processor carries 2 x 4 KB of cache that accelerates instruction fetches and variable access, reducing latency in time-critical logic sections. Main volatile storage is provided by 2 MByte of system RAM, allowing sizable PLC code blocks and real-time data arrays to run concurrently. A dedicated dual-port memory of 128 KByte supports high-speed handshaking between the CPU and the local backplane bus without occupying the main processor cycles. With a thermal budget of 20 W, the card stays within normal cabinet convection limits, so no separate blower is necessary. The controller occupies 2 slots in a System 2010 rack, which is an important layout consideration when planning multi-module arrangements.
For field connectivity, the module integrates one isolated CAN interface, one isolated RS232 interface, and one isolated RS485/RS422 interface. The galvanic isolation on each port prevents ground loops when nodes are at different potentials, which is a frequent issue in long cable installations. Combined, these links provide the RS485/RS422 + CAN network capability required for distributed inverter drives, operator terminals, and sensing expansions. Non-volatile application memory is ordered separately, letting the OEM select the EEPROM or flash capacity that matches program size while retaining code through power cycles. Because expansion unit use is not supported, all peripherals must connect through the built-in buses.
