K1 Controller - 32bit/1GHz power combined with extensive features
The K1 controller has a wide range of communication interfaces, a powerful ARM® Cortex-A9® Multicore CPU, Onboard-IOs and a mini-PCIexpress slot for function extensions. It is programmed with CODESYS V3 in the common IEC 61131-3 languages. Visualizations and user interfaces can be created with CODESYS Web/Target Visu or Qt.
Ready for Industrie 4.0 with OPC-UA and EtherCAT
The Ethernet interface in combination with the integrated OPC-UA server allows an easy integration into SmartFactory structures. IOs and drives can be connected via EtherCAT or CANopen, in addition the K1 controller has onboard IOs.
K1 Controller - Standalone or as system unit for L1/C1 panels
The DVA-Panelinterface enables remote operation of L1/C1 panels on the K1 controller. Video, touchscreen, USB and power supply are routed over a up to 5 meter long single cable.
In addition to the standalone version for mounting in electric cabinets, the K1 controller is also available as a system unit for L1/C1 automation panels.
In this combination, the K1 controller can be used as Touch-PLC or web panel.
The xK system unit is simply mounted on the back of the panel. Display, touchscreen, USB and power supply are routed over a standardized mechanical and electrical interface.
