Product Description:

The CX1010-0121 is an embedded PC manufactured by Beckhoff within the CX Embedded PC Systems series. Designed for installation on a DIN-rail beside I/O terminals, the unit functions as the primary logic and motion controller in industrial automation cells. By integrating Windows Embedded Standard 2009 with TwinCAT 2 PLC Runtime, it executes IEC 61131-3 programs and handles deterministic fieldbus communication. This arrangement removes the need for a separate PLC chassis and permits direct machine control from a compact PC-based platform.

Processing resources start with an AMD Geode LX 800 which supplies a clock rate of 500 MHz through a single CPU core. Paired with 256 MB DDR RAM, the controller maintains sufficient working memory for user programs, process images, and HMI tasks. Electrical consumption is modest; even at full load the device draws only 8 W, easing power-supply sizing and cabinet thermal management. Network connectivity is delivered through the integrated RJ45 interface that supports 10/100 Mbit/s transmission, enabling direct linkage to supervisory Ethernet networks or remote I/O without an external switch.

Non-volatile storage is available via 1 × CompactFlash Type II, allowing operating-system images and application data to be swapped without opening the housing. For local visualization, the computer exposes a DVI-I port that can drive either digital or analog monitors, while service devices connect through 2 × USB 2.0 on the front panel. The electronics are passively cooled, rely on a single processing core, and reside within a 58 × 120 × 91 mm aluminum enclosure that carries an IP20 protection rating. A 16-bit ISA PC/104 system bus provides internal expansion for specialized interfaces such as fieldbus masters.
