M.1008.0328 R0
by Kollmorgen
Kollmorgen's M.1008.0328 R0 (502-03638-61) is a Turbo CPU module, designed for compatibility with PiC900 systems. This robust component must be situated in the system rack's second slot from the left. With a clocking speed of 16 Megahertz, the M.1008.0328 R0 (502-03638-61) lends efficacious productivity to any hardware assembly. The module is designed with a front panel that includes a diagnostic LED and interfaces for two RS-232 ports. Among the two, the PiCPro serial port facilitates easy communication with workstations when transferring an application program to the module's RAM memory. The alternate user port, equipped with a 10-pin screw terminal, is purposed for communication with touch-screens, hand-held controllers or other devices with serial interfaces.
The module's RAM capacity is sectioned into four areas: data, expanded data, ladder and executive memory. The data memory stores user variables, bit memory and executive data. The ladder memory chiefly holds the application program, and the expanded data is optional. In contrast, the executive memory stores the system's executive code. The unit's overall RAM capacity is 256 kilobytes, with application memory also at 256 kilobytes and user memory at 32 kilobytes. The M.1008.0328 R0 (502-03638-61) CPU module carries out a myriad of tasks, including diagnostic checks, CSM battery checks, routine maintenance, and application program execution. Besides, during power-on, it conducts diagnostic tests on each module in the rack.
