With the XC300, Eaton offers a powerful and flexible control system that allows machine and system builders to implement a slim and modern automation concept in combination with the compact XN300 I / O system and the XV300 touch panel. The high-performance processor of the system enables short cycle times of less than 1 ms, so that users can achieve a high machine cycle and thus high productivity.
Thanks to the large number of interfaces, the controller is suitable as a universal and flexible data node for a wide variety of applications. An integrated OPC server enables standardized data transmission in M2M communication, so that the XC300 can be seamlessly integrated into automation architectures for Industry 4.0.
The Linux-based system is programmed with Codesys 3 and supports many common interfaces and fieldbuslogs. The XC300 enables the operation of three different Ethernet networks with different network addresses. In this way, security and performance aspects can be optimally adjusted to the network. In addition, the controller has four I/O channels with their own power supply.
