CPX−CP interface
The CPX−CP interface serves for connecting decentrally ar
ranged CP modules (CP valve terminals and CP I/O modules).
It transmits control signals to the connected CP modules and
monitors their ability to function. Maximum 128 external I/Os
are possible per CPX−CP interface.
Detailed information on the CPX−CP interface can be found in
the manual
for the CPX−CP interface type P. BE−CPX−CP−...
Pneumatic interface
If the CPX terminal is to be fitted with valves, a pneumatic
interface will be required (see Tab.1/2). The pneumatic inter
face is the interface between the electric and pneumatic pe
ripherals. It forms the mechanical connection between the
pneumatic and electric modules and transmits the electric
signals.
The CPX pneumatic interface is mounted
on the right−hand
side of the last electric module. Pneumatic interfaces can be
used for e.g.:
Pneumatics of type MPA (maximum 128solenoid coils)
Pneumatics of type VTSA (maximum 32solenoid coils)
Pneumatics of type Midi/Maxi (maximum 26solenoid
coils)
Pneumatics of type CPA (maximum 22solenoid coils)
