The processor modules are the central units of the PLC.
The main characteristics of the processor modules:
-
Power supply 24 V DC
-
I/O bus (not for PM5012-x-ETH)
-
Real-time clock (PM5012-x-ETH needs additional RTC option board)
-
Option board slots for extension on the CPU (1 for PM5012-x-ETH, 2 for PM5032-x-ETH, 3 for PM5052-x-ETH and PM50x2-T-2ETH)
-
6 digital inputs (PM5012-x-ETH), 12 digital inputs (PM5032-x-ETH, PM5052-x-ETH, PM50x2-T-2ETH)
-
4 transistor outputs (PM5012-T-ETH), 8 transistor outputs (PM5032-T-ETH, PM5052-T-ETH, PM50x2-T-2ETH)
-
4 relay outputs (PM5012-R-ETH), 6 relay outputs (PM5032-R-ETH, PM5052-R-ETH)
-
2 configurable digital inputs/outputs (not for PM5012-x-ETH)
The various processor module variants differ in the following characteristics:
-
Type of the digital outputs (transistor or relays)
-
Ethernet interface one or two independent interfaces
All processor module variants include a micro memory card slot.
