SIMOTION C240

SIMOTION C240 Programmable Motion control system for PROFIBUS, analog and stepper drives Onboard I/O 18 DI/8 DO (SIMOTION V4.0 HF2 is required) SIMOTION C is the controller variant of the SIMOTION family with the proven design of the SIMATIC S7-300. Flexible modular expansion of SIMOTION C is possible thanks to use of the SIMATIC S7 module spectrum. The SIMOTION C240 and C240 PN designs represent two powerful Motion Controllers for advanced control and Motion Control tasks. Although the two SIMOTION C240 and SIMOTION C240 PN controller versions have the same PLC and Motion Control performance, they do not have the same interfaces. Depending on the SIMOTION C platform, HMI devices can be operated directly on the onboard PROFIBUS, Ethernet or PROFINET interfaces for operator control and monitoring. These interfaces also support functions such as remote maintenance, diagnostics and teleservice. With SIMOTION C240, the drive is connected via PROFIBUS DP or via the onboard analog outputs and encoder inputs for four analog, stepper or hydraulic drives.
