Product Description:

Bosch Rexroth Indramat manufactures the CSH01.2C-PL-ENS-NNN-CCD-L1-S-NN-FW controller as part of the CSH Advanced Controllers series. Installed in an IndraDrive drive stack, this control section coordinates axis motion, evaluates feedback, and exchanges process data with supervisory PLCs in automated assembly lines, packaging equipment, and machining centers. The unit blends motion control and general automation logic in one slot, reducing panel space and wiring while delivering deterministic drive management for medium-to-high-performance systems. This arrangement lets one module handle drive-related control tasks and machine-level communication at the same time.

The analog monitor channel presents an input resistance of 160 kΩ, so connected sensors place only minimal load on their source circuits. Internal housekeeping requires just 8.5 W of base power, a figure that is useful when sizing cabinet ventilation. At power-up, the controller draws an inrush current of 4 A for about 100 ms, so the supply must tolerate this brief surge. A form-C relay is provided for external signaling and can switch up to DC 24 V, 1 A. Command traffic to the drive inverter is carried over a parallel interface, while an Ethernet-based service port supports setup and diagnostics. RS-232 is available for basic serial diagnostics, and encoder channels accept IndraDyn, HIPERFACE, and 1 Vpp feedback formats without additional adapters.

For machine I/O, the board offers 16 parallel inputs and an equal number of outputs, and four of those points are configurable as a combined digital or analog block rated at 24 V, 0.5 A per channel. Deterministic cross-communication to other Rexroth controllers is handled by the SERCOS III Master interface, allowing synchronous operation in distributed drive networks. That network role supports coordinated behavior between axes during synchronized machine sequences. A built-in Starting Lockout function prevents unintended motor energization after safety events. This helps the controller support safer restart behavior after an interruption or stop command.
