The CX8290 Embedded PC is a controller with a second, switched Ethernet port.

Protocols such as real-time Ethernet, ADS UDP/TCP, and EAP (EtherCAT

Automation Protocol) are supported, and additional real-time protocols such as

PROFINET, EtherNet/IP™, and BACnet/IP can be retrofitted via TwinCAT Functions.

The CX8290 features an Arm® Cortex®-A53 dual-core processor with 1.2 GHz.

The basic configuration of the CX8200 includes a 1 Gbit Ethernet interface,

a USB 3.0 interface, a 1 GB LPDDR4 RAM, and a slot for a microSD card.

The microSD card is not included in the scope of delivery and must be ordered

separately, taking the desired memory capacity into account.

E-bus or K-bus terminals can be attached as required; the CX8290 automatically

recognizes the type of I/O system connected during the start-up phase.

The control system is programmed with TwinCAT 3 via the bus interface or

the additional Ethernet interface. TwinCAT 3 licenses must be ordered via

the TwinCAT 3 price list.

Beckhoff RT Linux® is used as operating system.
