2.3 Features of XL6/XL6M/XL6e OCS
The XL6/XL6e OCS are all-in-one industrial control devices. They combine control, user interface, I/O
and networking into a single, integrated package. Unique features of the XL6/XL6e OCS include:
• Bright, 32768 color graphical touch sensing LCD display in all models of XL6/XL6e. XL6M has 16
shade grey scale display.
• Display of complex graphical objects including trends, gauges, meters and animations.
• Advanced control capabilities including floating point, multiple auto-tuning PID loops and string
handling capabilities.
• Removable media for up to two gigabytes of storage of programs, data logging or screen
captures.
• CsCAN networking port for communication with remote I/O, other controllers or PCs.
• USB networking port for communication with PCs and programming of controller.
• Configurable serial protocols for communication to drives, PLCs, or other serial peripherals.
• Full featured, built-in I/O including high resolution analog, thermocouple, RTD, high speed
counters, PWM outputs and relays (depending upon the XL6/XL6e OCS model used).
• Cscape programming software that allows all aspects of the XL6/XL6e OCS to be programmed
and configured from one integrated application.
• Optional communication add-on modules that allow additional capabilities such as Ethernet or
modems.
• On board Ethernet port (10/100Mbps) for Cscape programming and application defined
communication, with Auto MDI/MDI-X (XL6e only).
