Product Description:

The CX1001-0000 is a compact CPU module manufactured by Beckhoff within the CX Embedded PC Systems series. Designed for DIN-rail mounting inside machine cabinets, the unit combines PC-based control and fieldbus connectivity to coordinate motion, process, and I/O tasks in industrial automation environments. By integrating an x86 processor, memory, and standard communication interfaces in a small form factor, it eliminates the need for separate PLC and IPC hardware while retaining deterministic execution under TwinCAT or other real-time operating systems.

At the heart of the controller is a 266 MHz Pentium-MMX-compatible processor that handles cyclic logic, HMI data, and communication stacks without auxiliary coprocessors. Its primary working store is 128 MB RAM, sufficient for medium-sized control programs and buffered variables, while nonvolatile storage is provided by a 64 MB Flash module that hosts the operating system and retained data. An integrated 1 × RJ45 port supports 10/100 Mbps Ethernet for programming, Modbus TCP, or EtherCAT routing. Mechanical integration is simplified by the housing footprint of 57 × 100 × 91 mm, enabling installation in shallow control panels without obstructing airflow.

Expansion and diagnostics are addressed through the 16-bit PC/104 backplane; the module communicates with I/O terminals across a 16-bit ISA (PC104) system bus and receives its operating voltage directly from that bus, avoiding redundant power cabling. For removable media, there is a 1 × Compact Flash Type II slot accessible from the front. Legacy serial devices such as barcode readers can be attached to the 1 × 9-pin D-Sub (RS232) interface, and controller status is shown through 5 diagnostic LEDs. Additional features include a battery-backed real-time clock for time stamping and logging and a single Beckhoff system connector that links adjoining CX modules.
