Description

Overview
The cifX PC card family is the unified standard for Real-Time Ethernet and Fieldbus systems in PC-based automation. The protocol stack runs autonomously on the card and process data are exchanged with the host via Dual-Port-Memory (DPM) or DMA. Hilscher's netX technology enables multiple real-time protocols on a single hardware platform; protocol change is possible by loading different firmware.

Highlights
  • Universal CANopen PC card (Master or Slave)
  • Uniform user interface and common driver/toolset across protocols and card formats
  • Easy integration with a wide range of drivers and C-Toolkit
  • Data access via Dual-Port-Memory (64 KB) or direct memory access (DMA)
  • Includes detached network interface cable (available in 15 cm or 30 cm)
  • Extended operating temperature up to +70 °C (with 0.5 m/s airflow during measurement)


Protocols supported
  • CANopen Master
  • CANopen Slave
