Product Description:

The CSH01.1C-ET-ENS-NNN-NNN-L2-S-XP-FW belongs to the CSH Advanced Controllers series from Bosch Rexroth Indramat. This plug-in control section is installed on IndraDrive devices to coordinate motion axes, process feedback from field sensors, and forward real-time commands to the drive power stage during automated production. It serves as the control layer between external machine signals and the connected drive functions, allowing coordinated motion tasks and local signal handling within a compact drive platform.

The unit is supplied from a control cabinet bus at DC 24 V, and its idle demand is only 7.5 W, helping minimize thermal load inside densely packed enclosures. At power-up, an inrush of 4 A must be accommodated by the supply fuse. Two on-board analog inputs have an input resistance of 160 kΩ, so external transducers are not heavily loaded. Two analog outputs and four combined I/O channels handle continuous process values, while seven additional digital inputs accept signals that drop below 5 V for an off state and exceed 15 V for an on state. Each digital output can source up to 500 mA, allowing direct actuation of indicator lamps or interposing relays. Pulsed commands from external encoders are captured when the pulse width does not exceed 100 ms, which supports reliable edge detection at modest line rates.

A Multi-Ethernet interface lets the controller join EtherNet/IP, PROFINET, or EtherCAT networks without hardware changes, and reliable data flow is maintained over cable segments up to 100 m. For legacy diagnostics, an RS-232 maintenance port supports leads as long as 15 m. When machine safety logic demands energy removal, the integrated Safe Torque Off circuit interrupts drive enabling lines without extra latency. This arrangement allows one controller platform to fit different network environments while still supporting local service access through the serial port. It is well suited for compact machinery that requires deterministic communication, coordinated axis control, and direct interaction with distributed machine signals.
