Using the same high performance runtime and toolchain as the PACSystems RX3i large controller, the RSTi-EP CPE240 compact controller, delivers large Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) capability in a small, cost-effective, IIoT-ready form factor so machine manufacturers (OEMs) do not need to sacrifice performance for price. With security-by-design, open programming, and open communications built in, it simplifies connectivity to external analytics software platforms while reducing cost and complexity for OEMs and end users. The CPE240 offers 4MB of user memory, handles up to 32 PROFINET devices, and up to 2048 digital and 32128 analog I/O.
