The high-performance CPU has 50Mb memory, fast scan times, and five communication ports.
The P2-550 CPU features LED status indicators as well as a 4-line x 10-character high-resolution OLED diagnostic text display with keypad for status, configuration, system alarms, and user-defined messages. Five onboard communications ports—including Ethernet, USB, and serial—support communications protocols including Ethernet/IP, Modbus TCP, and ASCII. A micro USB 2.0 (type B) port provides plug-and-play connection for programming, online monitoring and firmware upgrades.
The bottom of the CPU is fitted with two 10/100 Mbps Ethernet ports. One is used for programming, monitoring, and firmware upgrades as well as client/server connections (Modbus TCP, Ethernet/IP scanner and adapters), while the other is dedicated for up to 16 GS1, GS2, or Durapulse variable frequency drive connections. A microSD card slot accepts a standard microSD card to provide up to 32GB of additional data logging capacity. The CPU’s built-in Web server allows users to view, download and delete data log files from any browser. One RS232 and one RS485 serial port can communicate via Modbus or ASCII protocols for local networking or custom device interfaces.
A power supply, I/O bases, communication and specialty modules, and programming suite are also available.
