The CPM2C Micro PLC is suitable as a controller for simple stand-alone machines, as well as a simple networked controller. One innovation is the new synchronisation instruction, which makes it possible to generate output pulse trains as a function of an input pulse frequency, e.g. to emulate the synchronisation of 2 axes through a variable gear ratio. Furthermore, PID control and pulse width modulation can also be realised easily by preconfigured instructions. PLC programs from the CPM1/CPM1A and the CPM2A can be used with the CPM2C. Programming is carried out using the CX-Programming software.
