OMRON controller offers built-in Ethernet

The CP1L CPU units by OMRON feature Ethernet connectivity, and are the latest additions to the OMRON CP series of programmable controllers.

These units are programmable controllers with built-in Ethernet ports that enable low-cost Ethernet connection, and are designed to meet a wide variety of Ethernet connectivity needs in a range of fields.

The ability to send and receive messages allows a host computer to monitor the status of controllers and receive feedback from the controllers about any on-site abnormalities they detect. The controllers also feature socket communications capability, making it possible to connect them with a variety of Ethernet-enabled control equipment.

The added function block memory (10K steps) improves re-usability of user program assets and supports design standardisation. The function blocks aid efficient creation of reusable programs in various devices such as ladder programs used for Ethernet communications.

All the CP1L-EL/EM-type CPU units incorporate two analog inputs meaning that stand-alone CPU units can handle various applications such as monitoring for fluid level detection. For applications that require more than two analog inputs, up to six analog inputs and four analog outputs can be controlled by mounting analog option units without the need for an expansion unit.
