configurations with MPA,

VTSA or CPV

• Connection to all Fieldbuses

as remote controller and for

pre-processing

• Control of electric drives as

single axes or in synchronised

multi-axis mode using

pneumatic applications

• Servopneumatic applications

• AS-interface control via

gateway

Function integration 1: front-end control

Automation platform

With CPX-CEC, the remote I/O

expands into a modular PLC

with IP65/67 rating. Direct

machine mounting reduces in-

stallation costs and permits

pre-processing or stand-alone

control. The module can be

used in every industry and

application. It enables manual

workstations, relatively small

machines or interlinked stand-

alone systems to be controlled

independently. It all makes CPX

into an unprecedented, stand-

alone automation platform.

Superb performance

Leader in the field of intelligent

“embedded systems”: with a

400 MHz 32 bit processor, the

CPX-CEC is one of the fastest

and most powerful controllers

available anywhere in the world

in this basic design.

Summary of benefits:

• Better performance

• Reduced costs

• Improved cycle times

• More actuators can be

connected

• Programming in a global

language in accordance with

IEC 61131-3 – CoDeSys enjoys

wide accept ance in the con-

trol market

The CANopen Master integrat-

ed in the control system can

actuate pneumatic and electric

axes intelligently via Fieldbus.

The comprehensive CoDeSys

function library takes care of

diagnostics and condition

monitoring options.

CoDeSys makes your life easier

with simple commissioning, fast

programming and parameteri -

sation – standardised program-

ming of control systems to

IEC 61131-3 standard. Also

includes the new Softmotion

library for motion control and

interpolations up to 2.5D with

the controller CPX-CEC-M1.

CPX-CEC: CoDeSys embedded controller for the CPX terminal

Electrical terminal CPX/Installation system CPI – Subject to change – 2012/02 11

The following basic control

concepts can be implemented

by combining CPX-CEC with

the CPX terminal platform:

• Stand-alone operation as a

front-end controller or pro-

grammable valve terminal

for direct machine mounting

• Fieldbus remote controller

(combination with Fieldbus

nodes for Interbus,

Profibus-DP, CANopen,

DeviceNet or CC-Link) as the

pre-processing unit for

decentralised, stand-alone

subsystems

Control concepts with CPX-CEC

A selection of completed projects

Diagnostics and condition

monitoring in pneumatic

(sub-)systems

Fast and simple implemen-

tation of diagnostic functions,

enhanced energy efficiency,

process optimisation for cus-

tomer projects, or support in air

consumption measurement and

system analysis – it’s all pos -

sible with the software library

for the range of CoDeSys con-

trol systems from Festo. Ready-

made software components

support the monitoring of

pressure, flow rates and

air consumption. Further

diagnostic functions include:

• Standard functions

mean/maximum values

• Counting functions

• Time functions, e.g.

travel times

• Switching times of actuators

• Diagnostics of, e.g.

wear or leak detection

CoDeSys can also be used

to interpret the information

acquired. Detailed diagnostics

and plausibility checks

(If-Then analyses) are possible,

as is integration into SCADA

systems via an OPC server.

• Remote Ethernet controller

as pre-processing unit for

decentralised, stand-alone

subsystems with use of IT

technology

CPX-CEC variants:

• CPX-CEC: with RS232,

compatible with CPX-FEC

• CPX-CEC-C1: with CANopen

master

• CPX-CEC-M1: with CANopen

master and CoDeSys

Softmotion library

Immensely powerful and with

IP65/67 protection

With the CPX-CEC controller as

a CANopen master, you can ex-

pand CPX with up to 127 addi-

tional CPX terminals, motor con-

trollers and many more CAN-

open stations – and implement

several thousand I/O.** CPX

thus becomes an immensely

powerful automation platform,

with IP65/67-rated protection.

**Depends on a number of para meters,such as: size of the user program, re quired cycle time, baud rate, distance, etc.

An example:

With 1500 I/Os each, CAN open

requires about 3 ms bus cycle

time; with 15000 I/Os about

30 ms.

These figures are still “real-time

capable” for the pneumatic

systems.

Limitless expansion to form an automation platform

retracting/advancing and

measuring in one work step

• Reduced cycle time; stroke-

dependent triggering of

subsequent process steps

• Improvements in quality:

process steps are measured

and documented

• Faster and more reliable

commissioning, due to

Function integration 4: diagnostics and condition monitoring

Integrated diagnostics concept

reduces unplanned downtime

by up to 35%.

CPX integrates internal diag-

nostics and condition monitor-

ing functions. The respective

valve terminals, such as types

MPA or VTSA, have superb com-

munications capabilities thanks

to the integrated serial inter-

face or a Fieldbus module from

the CPX series. Everything that

is necessary for internal diag-

nostics and condition monitor-

ing down to individual channel

level. The same goes for

process diagnostics, as shown

on the previous pages with

CPX-CEC and connected sen-

sors or with compact vision

systems.

Convenient integration of

diagnostic data into your

HOST environments – thanks

to integrated IT services.

Depending on the Fieldbus

system used and your control/

visualisation system, the CPX

diagnostic data can be trans-

ferred and integrated seamless-

ly. Defined diagnostic modules

ensure easy engineering.

Our manuals and technology

brochures for all Fieldbus

systems provide a detailed

guide:

occur, thanks to automatic con-

dition monitoring for preventive

maintenance and numerical

data and warning messages –

at channel level, e.g. for up to

128 solenoid coils.

18 Electrical terminal CPX/Installation system CPI – Subject to change – 2012/02

Universal communication via Fieldbus and Ethernet

With the special functions that

are possible with no problems

using CPX, the modular electric

terminal will quickly establish

itself as a new standard in in-

dustrial communication. With

the huge range of modules

available with CPX, these ad-

vantages are easy to imple-

ment. Not least of which is in-

dependent and flexible commu-

nication via Fieldbus/Ethernet –

anywhere in the world, and

from the management level to

the field level. Without this,

comprehensive diagnostics, for

example, would be impossible.

Simple and reliable: communication on all levels

Status byte and diagnostic

status interface

CPX provides comprehensive

diagnostic information. If this is

not supported by the fieldbus

or host system used, parts of

the information can also be

transmitted within the process

data, thus facilitating partial

readout of the data.

Fail-safe/fault mode

Ideal for risk management:

safety-critical processes can be

planned precisely with fail-safe

or fault mode – because the be-

haviour of outputs during a bus

interruption can be defined in

advance (e.g. OFF or Hold Last

State). This function is available

for Profibus, DeviceNet, Ether-

net/IP, Profinet and EtherCat.

Modular device configuration

This function makes modular

devices such as CPX and other

subsystems easier to configure.

Benefits

• Clear configuration

• Differentiated planning, also

with different data types

• Simple parameterisation

This function is available for

Profibus, DeviceNet, CANopen

and ProfiNet.

Modular device configuration with Siemens STEP 7.

Parameterisation via PLC/

fieldbus

Depending on the fieldbus, a

start-up configuration can be

defined for each field device

and loaded via the fieldbus

after power-on.

Benefits

• Uniform user interface in

the PLC

• In the event of a fault the field

device easily replaced and

can be parameterised with

the old values

This function is available for

Profibus, DeviceNet, CANopen,

Ethernet/IP and ProfiNet.

Festo valve terminals configured and parameterised with Siemens STEP 7.

Address reservation

This function is device and

fieldbus-dependent. Address

reservation can be used to

apply a single, uniform PLC pro-

gram on differently configured

machines and field devices.

Currently this design is sup-

ported by CANopen via

“Specific Object”.

If you connect a subordinate

CPI system to the CPX terminal,

you can use it to carry out ad-

dress reservation by allocating

the fourth string first.
