Product Description:

The MTS-P02.2-D2-B1-E1-NN-NN-FW is a servo control module produced by Bosch Rexroth Indramat within the MTS Servo Control Modules series. It functions as a compact processing and communications node that ties field-level I/O, motion axes, and higher-level PLCs together, supporting coordinated machine sequences in industrial automation cells. The module handles control tasks inside a modular drive system and passes data between the rack, connected field devices, and the supervisory controller so motion and logic signals remain organized within the same platform.

Physically, the card occupies only 22 mm of rack width, yet it provides a functional depth of 295 mm and a height of 145 mm, allowing dense enclosure layouts. Its aluminum housing weighs just 0.3 kg, so the module adds very little mechanical load to the rack and remains easy to position in compact assemblies. Logic electronics run from a single backplane rail of +5 V. Under full load, the board draws up to 1.8 A, which must be considered when sizing the control supply for the complete rack. Up to four PC/104 expansion modules can be stacked directly on the controller, and the integrated BT bus master addresses four downstream devices across a shielded line that can span 50 m without repeaters. This arrangement supports compact expansion while keeping local communication paths short and direct inside the cabinet.

On the field side, the module relies on Interbus networking. A single segment carries an I/O image of 4096 in / 4096 out bits, while the topology supports 16 node levels for hierarchical ring or star layouts. When fully populated, up to 512 nodes are managed across 256 segments, with a cumulative cable reach of 12.8 km before optical conversion is required. Local machine signaling is handled through 16 TTL inputs and an equal number of TTL outputs, allowing the controller to process trigger and strobe signals locally instead of sending every fast transition through the network. That local handling can help preserve fieldbus bandwidth for broader process data and coordinated axis communication.
