Product Description:

The CSH01.1C-CO-ENS-MA1-MD1-L1-S-NN-FW is an automation controller produced by Bosch Rexroth Indramat within the CSH Advanced Controllers series. It manages motion axes, safety interlocks, and fieldbus traffic inside drive cabinets, acting as the command layer between PLC logic and servo power stages. By combining analog, digital, and serial channels with built-in network couplers, the unit streamlines wiring and allows coordinated control of multiple drives and feedback devices in industrial machinery.

On the fieldbus side, the controller can supervise up to 127 nodes on a CANopen segment, giving it enough addresses for complex multi-axis installations. Two analog input channels accept signals over a ±10 V span, letting the controller process speed or torque references from external sensors. The front connector also presents 12 digital inputs that capture limit, homing, or emergency contacts, while a dedicated encoder feed supplies 500 mA to power incremental or absolute transducers without an extra supply. For high-resolution capture of position latches, the TTL gate tolerates pulse trains up to 400 kHz. These I/O resources support synchronized motion control across the connected network.

When issuing commands, the unit offers 8 digital outputs that can drive contactors, status lamps, or relays. The hardware enable line can be tied to the starting lockout, which is rated at 24 V / 3 mA for safe gating of power stages. DeviceNet connectivity supports as many as 64 nodes, so separate material-handling zones can be segmented on a second bus. The integrated safety channel executes a Stop in Category 0, cutting torque without delay when a fault is asserted. Additional features include two analog output channels over a ±10 V window, a single-line panel display for local diagnostics, RS-232 programming over 15 m of shielded cable, and an 11.6 V encoder supply that suits most Hall-based feedback devices.
