Product Description:

The CX5020-1111 serves as an embedded PC system made by Beckhoff for automation needs which demands minimal power while relying on passive heat dissipation. It contains an Intel® Atom™ Z530 processor clocked at 1.6 GHz with 128 MB storage card and integrates 512 MB DDR2 RAM that can be expanded to 1 GB.

The CX5020-1111 windows embedded system can connect through two RJ45 Ethernet ports which operate at 10 to 1000 Mbit/s speeds along with a DVI-D video output attachment and 4 USB 2.0 ports. It includes one adapter slot that enables users to add interface modules for better system functionality. The CX embedded system has LEDs that illuminate to display system power conditions while showing TwinCAT operation status and flash memory access along with fieldbus activity to support quick maintenance and system control assessment. A battery-driven real-time clock retains system time and date information when there are power failures. The CX embedded system’s built-in 1-sec UPS provides data retention by storing 1 MB of memory on the flash medium for non-volatile operations. The CX embedded system features pre-installed TwinCAT 2 PLC runtime functionality as well as the ability to run both TwinCAT 3 XAR applications and supports a control platform for both current and legacy applications.

The CX5020-1111 windows embedded system’s I/O connectivity occurs through an E-Bus interface which automatically detects and identifies both E-Bus and K-Bus terminal types. Its electrical specifications involve a 24 V DC input power that spans -15% to +20% range enabling 2 A current supply for I/O system operation and consumes a total of 13 W power. The dimensions of the housing measure 106 mm (W) × 100 mm (H) × 92 mm (D) while its weight reaches approximately 0.575 kg.
