The mini controller ILC 170 ETH 2TX is the latest addition to the modular Inline range of controllers from Phoenix Contact. This controller extends the scope of applications for inline controllers to include smaller applications requiring complex Ethernet infrastructures and pluggable parameter memories.
With their integrated Ethernet interface, these controllers can be programmed and parameterised using the IEC-61131-compliant PC WorX automation software. Parallel data exchange with OPC servers and communication with TCP/IP-capable control systems are also possible. Furthermore, the integrated Ethernet interfaces in the devices make it possible to establish linear network structures at the machine level without the need for additional switches or hubs, reducing the amount of cabling required. Another feature is the pluggable parameter memory, which makes it easy to switch system applications or recipe data. Since it is directly integrated into the Inline automation system, the mini controller is highly modular and can be customised according to the given requirements.
