Large Capacity Memory
6 MB battery-backed RAM: Stores user programs, configuration data, and register values to prevent data loss.
256 KB non-volatile user flash memory: Stores CPU firmware and additional user data, supporting complex control requirements.
Flexible I/O Configuration
Supports up to 12,000 I/O points (discrete and analog in any combination), with a maximum of 8,000 analog I/O points.
Supports 32-bit floating-point data, suitable for high-precision calculations such as temperature and pressure monitoring in process control.
Rich Communication Interfaces
1 RS232 serial port, 2 RS485 serial ports, supporting protocols such as SNP (slave), non-interrupt SNP (slave), SNPX, and RTU.
Expandable Ethernet interface modules (such as EtherNet/IP, Profinet, Modbus) for multi-device coordination and remote monitoring.
High-reliability Design
Industrial-grade design, adaptable to harsh environments (temperature range: 0°C to 60°C with forced air cooling, 0°C to 50°C without air cooling; humidity 5% to 95% without condensation).
The front panel is equipped with 7 LED indicators to display the real-time operating status, simplifying fault diagnosis.
Self-diagnostic function: Real-time monitoring of system status and feedback of error information through communication interfaces for quick problem location.
