Product Description:

The MTS-P01.2-D2-P1-E1-NN-NN-FW module is produced by Bosch Rexroth Indramat and belongs to the MTS Servo Control Modules series. It serves as a processor and gateway within multi-axis drive assemblies, directing motion sequences and handling digital and fieldbus traffic between drives, operator stations, and higher-level controllers. By integrating communication ports and discrete panel I/O, the unit simplifies cabinet wiring and provides a deterministic platform for time-sensitive automation tasks in packaging, printing, and material-handling machines.

Field communication is handled by a PROFIBUS-DP Master interface that exchanges cyclic data at up to 12 Mbaud, and it can supervise as many as 32 subscribers on the segment. For serial diagnostics, the card provides a combined RS232, RS422, and RS485 programming port plus a dedicated RS232C at 9600 baud service connector that supports program loading and status tracing. The logic section draws from regulated +5 V, +12 V, and -12 V rails and stores application code in 2 MB of battery-backed SRAM. Input and output stages operate at TTL level to align with standard encoder and sensor boards, while electromagnetic emissions meet EN 55022 Class A limits for factory environments.

Operator devices link to the internal Bt bus, which accepts up to 4 operator terminals and can be extended along machine frames for 50 m without repeaters. The module supplies these terminals over the backplane while limiting controller rail load to 0.6 A on the +5 V line, which helps limit thermal rise within the DIN 40 040 Class F humidity rating. At the front panel, there are 16 inputs and 16 outputs for prox switches, push buttons, and lamp loads, complemented by a 24 V, 150 mA SPC-ready relay contact that signals drive-system readiness to external safety relays. Overall dimensions of 22 × 145 × 295 mm allow installation beside drive amplifiers without additional spacing.
