FIO Controller PLC

694 320 28 000

The FIO Controller PLC is a compact industrial controller based on the Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4 with a pre-installed CODESYS Soft PLC. The lateral E-bus interface allows direct expansion with EtherCAT I/O modules from the Kuhnke FIO series. Additional decentralized EtherCAT devices can be connected via the EtherCAT MainDevice interface. Ethernet, USB and HDMI interfaces enable integration into machine and plant networks as well as the connection of external peripheral devices. An integrated mini UPS supports controlled system shutdown in the event of a power supply failure. In this device variant, the lateral option slot is not equipped with an additional communication interface.

  • Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4 with quad-core ARM Cortex-A72 processor
  • CODESYS Soft PLC for PLC applications
  • E-bus interface for direct expansion with up to 8 FIO I/O modules
  • EtherCAT MainDevice interface for connecting decentralized EtherCAT devices
