Product Description:
The C1300 Lightbus Controller from Beckhoff is created for industrial automation systems. It uses fiber-optic cables to avoid interference and provide sure and consistent data transfer from I/O modules to the control unit. It can operate smoothly with vibration levels reaching 1g at frequencies of 10–150 hertz, as per IEC 60068-2-6.
The C1300 Lightbus controller uses a fast Xilinx XC3130A FPGA for signal processing, as well as an Infineon SAB 80C166-W microcontroller, a common 16-bit CPU in industrial systems. The Lightbus fiber-optic communications are handled by dual TORX170A optical receivers on the board. Electrical designs usually require power from a 5V DC source, but tolerances can be up to 5% greater or less. With the highest current demand, it consumes around 500mA. The interface of C1300 Lightbus controller is compatible with fiber-optic cables with ST connectors and provides a maximum communication range of 1000 meters. Up to 255 Lightbus devices can be connected to one ring network. The encoders supported by I/O expansion are incremental and absolute encoders, connected using Lightbus-compatible modules. Configuration settings for the board are controlled by DIP switches, ensuring flexible addressing options. The unit complies with Directive 2014/30/EU.
The C1300 Lightbus controller is built to function in industrial areas where the ambient temperature is between -5ºF and 131ºF. It is stable under non-working conditions between -25°C and +85°C. Your AHU should not process any air with humidity over 95%, as that can cause damage. The highest place you can site a wind turbine is 2000 meters above the level of the sea. Following standard ISA bus architecture, the backplane connection board used on the bare board is provided. PC-based control systems often depend on it for real-time deterministic communication.
Frequently Asked Questions about C1300:
Q: How does the C1300 handle signal integrity over long distances?
A: The C1300 uses Lightbus fiber-optic protocol with precise timing and low jitter. This allows reliable communication over distances up to 1000 meters.
