Description

Engineered for high-performance automation and control applications, the CX5130-N031-0001 is a robust DIN rail-mountable embedded PC powered by an Intel Atom® processor. This controller combines processing power with versatile connectivity, making it ideal for medium-scale PLC, motion control, and visualization tasks within the Beckhoff TwinCAT environment.

This specific hardware variant integrates the N031 interface option, providing a dedicated RS485 serial communication port. The interface is configured as an end point, complete with internal echo support and active line termination. Utilizing a standard 9-pin D-sub connection, this unit allows direct integration with legacy industrial protocols, field devices, and serial networks without requiring external protocol converters.

Features

Equipped with an Intel Atom® multi-core processor for power-efficient computing.
Integrated N031 optional interface providing an RS485 serial port.
Robust 9-pin D-sub socket mechanical interface.
Factory-configured as a bus end point with echo and enabled line termination.
Direct DIN rail mounting design for space-saving control cabinet integration.
Seamless compatibility with Beckhoff I/O systems (EtherCAT Terminals and Bus Terminals).

Applications

Factory automation and centralized PLC systems.
Process engineering and distributed control networks.
Machine building, packaging, and materials handling systems.
SCADA gateway applications requiring serial-to-Ethernet bridging.
