Meaning
The sum of available addresses, independent of the assignment.
The sum of the actually utilised user data.
Analogue input (input channel, 16 bits)
Analogue output (output channel, 16 bits)
Create the connection to certain networks or fieldbuses, conduct control
signals to the connected modules and monitor their functioning
capability.
Control & Communication Link fieldbus system from Mitsubishi
CoDeSys controller, e.g. CPX-CEC..., applicable for configuration,
commissioning and programming of various components and equipment
from Festo.
Collective term for the various modules which can be integrated into a
CPX terminal.
Description that gives an overview of structure, components, function,
installation and commissioning as well as basic information on
parameterisation of CPX terminals (
Modular electrical terminal
Detailed diagnosis information
Dual-in-line switches consist of several switch elements with which
settings can be made.
Front End Controller, e.g. CPX-FEC, can be used as:
– fieldbus slave (remote I/O operating mode)
– system controller (PLC, remote controller operating mode)
– Stand-alone system controller (PLC, stand-alone operating mode)
Digital input
The I/O diagnostic interface is a bus-independent diagnostic interface at
I/O level, permitting access to internal data of the CPX terminal.
Common term for the CPX modules which provide digital inputs and
outputs (CPX input modules and CPX output modules)
Digital inputs and outputs
Digital output
With the aid of parameterisation, the characteristics of the CPX terminal
or the characteristics of the individual modules and I/O channels can be
adapted to each particular application. Parameters can be read and
modified.
