Note: The catalog specifies that the CP 311 model uses a Dual Core CPU but does not specify the processor speed in MHz; therefore, the 800 MHz value of another CPU model should not be used as data for CP 311.
Dual Core CPU
The SIGMATEK CP 311 uses a dual-core CPU for processing internal control commands and is suitable for consideration in systems requiring control processing, device connectivity, and communication in industrial machinery.
Actual performance depends on the program, number of I/O devices, amount of communication data, and system control requirements. Cycle Time information and processing capabilities should be checked from the manufacturer's technical documentation if there are specific requirements.
Supports up to 64 Expansion Modules
The CP 311 can connect up to 64 expansion modules, supporting both Digital Module and Analog Module, allowing for signal reception and transmission system design according to machine needs.
The Digital Module can be applied to receive or send status signals as per system requirements. The Analog Module can be selected to suit the measurement and control signals required.
Selecting an expansion module requires checking compatibility with CPU model CP 311 and system electrical specifications before installation.
