Product Description:

Bosch Rexroth Indramat manufactures the PPC-R02.2N-N-N1-N2-T3-FW controller within the PPC Controllers series. The device is a programmable control platform intended to coordinate drives, I/O, and motion sequences in industrial automation cells. By combining axis logic and communication functions in a single slot, this module reduces cabinet wiring and allows the drives to be commanded from a central CPU through digital links and fieldbus channels.

The communication layer starts with a Bosch Rexroth Indramat proprietary board that exposes a EtherNet 100 Mb interface (ETH02); this port supports standard TCP/IP traffic so status data and commissioning tools can be connected without additional gateways. Mechanical integration is simplified because the electronics are packaged as a RECO unit, letting the card snap into a multilayer backplane alongside servo drives and I/O slices. Application-specific positioning commands are processed by the optional Option Card PLS module, which inserts into the front panel and supplies high-speed latch and compare functionality for camming tasks. System identification is tied to the second-generation architecture of the PPC Controllers, ensuring firmware, cabling, and diagnostics match the latest family conventions.

The hardware configuration is identified as Design Version 2, which aligns its microprocessor, firmware loader, and diagnostic LEDs with other second-release boards in the platform. Because the onboard slots are delivered Not equipped with additional RAM, cycle programs must execute within the built-in cache; the absence of extra storage also lowers power consumption and simplifies revision tracking. Functionally the board is classified as a Control Unit, so it supervises axis tasks while external drives handle power output. If future projects demand data logging, the unused memory expansion connector permits field retrofitting without replacing the primary controller.
