Fast and versatile communication
Flexible, fast and yet cost-effective communication is
essential in today’s competitive market. This applies in
particular to compact PLCs, which not only need to connect
with devices inside the machine, but also outside the
machine for operating, data-logging and remote access.
With this in mind, Omron has given the CP1 family excellent
communication capabilities for both serial and Ethernet
networking. In addition, Omron provides flexible and
economical option boards for serial communication.
Flexible Ethernet connectivity
To meet communication needs over different protocols
simultaneously and to easily connect for remote access, our
latest CP1L PLC features embedded Ethernet with socket
services functionality. This offers, among other things,
programmable connectivity to third-party devices and makes
this outstanding product the best-in-class machine controller
on the market.
Easy positioning functions
The CP1 family is designed to fulfill position control tasks. Up
to four axes of servo-drives can be controlled with high-speed
pulse outputs, while high-speed pulse inputs can allow the
connection of up to four encoders. Control is easily achieved
with Function Block or standard functions without the need
of specialist motion boards or expansion units. Furthermore,
thanks to its fast serial ports, the CP1 family is also capable of
performing simple positioning tasks. With the use of Modbus
Function Blocks, up to 31 inverters can be controlled and
monitored in real-time.
