Established programs and libraries are supported for all XC and XV devices, saving redevelopment time and associated costs. Integrated web servers support CODESYS 3 visualisation and device administration, with HTML5 capability for display on smartphones and tablet devices. The controller also provides its own supply feeder over four I/O channels.

In this way, the security and performance aspects can be optimally matched to the network. For example, individual networks can be set up for mobile, M2M and SCADA communication. The controller allows the operation of three different Ethernet networks based on different network addresses. In modular machines, networked plant and production concepts, the XC300 demonstrates its advantages through its high flexibility. The Linux-based system is programmed using CODESYS 3 and supports many commonly-used interfaces and field bus protocols, from CANopen, easyNet and Modbus RTU through EtherCAT, Modbus TCP, Ethernet/IP all the way to OPC UA/Scada. An integrated OPC server enables standardised data transfer in M2M communication, facilitating seamless integration into the automation architecture and creating a simple path towards Industry 4.0. Thanks to its various interfaces, the controller is suitable as a universal and flexible data node for a wide range of applications. With high performance and communication features, the modular controller’s fast cycle times enables higher productivity rates for the machine.
