Product overview
Fieldbus interface
The variants from the CX80xx series differ by their fieldbus interfaces. Various versions cover the most
important fieldbus systems:
• CX8010: EtherCATSlave
• CX8030: PROFIBUS DP Master
CX8031: PROFIBUS DP Slave
• CX8050: CAN Master
CX8051: CANopen Slave
• CX8080: RS232/485
• CX8090: Ethernet (RT-Ethernet, EAP, ModbusTCP, TCP/IP, UDP/IP, Web Services)
• CX8091: BACnet IP/OPC UA
• CX8093: PROFINET RT Device (Slave)
• CX8095: Ethernet/IP Slave
• CX8097: Sercos III Slave
Programming
The CX80xx controller is programmed according to the high-performance IEC 61131-3 standard. As with all
other Beckhoff controllers, the TwinCAT automation software is the basis for parameterization and
programming. Users therefore have the familiar TwinCAT tools available, e.g. PLC programming interface,
System Manager and TwinCAT Scope.
Configuration
The configuration is also carried out using TwinCAT. The fieldbus interface and the real-time clock can be
configured and parameterized via the System Manager. The System Manager can read all connected
devices and Bus Terminals. The configuration is stored on the CX after the parameterization. The
configuration thus created can be accessed again later.
