Product Description:
The CX1030-0012-1005 is an embedded PC manufactured by Beckhoff and belongs to the CX Embedded PC Systems series. Integrated into control cabinets, this unit serves as the central processor for modular I/O terminals and motion modules. It allows deterministic coordination of drives, sensors, and actuators in industrial automation lines.
An Intel Pentium M, 1.8 GHz CPU provides user-program execution and fieldbus management, while a 16-bit ISA (PC104) system bus links the processor module to extension cards. Heat from the CPU and chipset is removed through active cooling, which maintains reliable operation inside a cabinet set for horizontal installation. The housing occupies only 96 x 112 x 99 mm, conserving DIN-rail space. Two onboard Gigabit interfaces presented as 2 x RJ45 sockets are bridged by an internal Ethernet switch, so the PC can appear as a line segment node without an external hub. Time-stamped sequence control is supported by a battery-backed real-time clock. Status feedback is supplied through one PWR, two LAN, one TC, and one Flash LED group, allowing quick visual diagnostics during operation.
The control software includes TwinCAT NC PTP Runtime, allowing axis interpolation and PLC logic on the same hardware. Nonvolatile application data can be stored in the 1 x Compact Flash Type I/II expansion slot, eliminating rotating media. Electrical losses are limited to 11 W, simplifying power-supply sizing and cabinet thermal design. The enclosure carries an IP20 rating, so it must be mounted in a protected environment but needs no additional sealing inside a standard cabinet. For operator panels, DVI and USB outputs are not included on this variant, so remote HMI access typically occurs over Ethernet.
