Product Description:

The CX1000-0100 is an embedded PC manufactured by Beckhoff within the CX Embedded PC Systems series. Designed for industrial automation, it consolidates PLC logic, HMI tasks, and network communication into a single top-hat rail unit that sits next to I/O terminals. By coupling processor resources with fieldbus interfaces, the device acts as the deterministic controller at machine level, eliminating the need for separate PLC racks and reducing cabinet space in distributed control architectures.

The unit’s processor executes user code at a clock rate of 266 MHz, and this sets the maximum instruction cycle speed available for real-time control tasks. Heat is removed through passive cooling, so no fans are required. The housing measures 57 x 100 x 91 mm, enabling dense mounting in compact panels while still preserving the specified 30 mm vertical clearance for airflow. A soldered SDRAM bank provides 32 MB of working memory for the operating system and TwinCAT runtime. For Ethernet-based programming or SCADA links, the controller offers a single 1 x RJ45 port that supports 10/100 Mbps connections.

A Pentium MMX-compatible core underlies the module, allowing it to run standard x86 operating systems while interfacing with field I/O over the 16-bit ISA (PC104) system bus. Ambient operation is permitted up to 55 °C without derating, which suits installation in control cabinets exposed to elevated machine room temperatures. Local diagnostics are aided by five status LEDs, and service access is provided by a 1 x 9-pin D-Sub (RS-232) port for boot messages or console functions. A battery-backed real-time clock preserves timestamps during power loss, and application storage is handled through a CompactFlash Type II slot. Power is supplied through the CX1100 backplane, and no TwinCAT license is pre-installed.
