CVM1 Programmable Controller

Floating-point arithmetic, symbol math, PID, and many other new instructions have been added to simplify everything from data processing and process control through high-speed positioning and other complex operations. It all adds up to more efficient programming.

A 62K-word user memory and 24K-word data memory also provide the added capacity needed to handle complex operations for large-scale control.

A Motion Control Unit provides 4-axis position control capability, while a Personal Computer Unit places DOS right on the PC Rack. And a Temperature Controller Data Link Unit manages data from multiple temperature controllers. These, and other CPU Bus Units achieve easy system control.

Various networks provide communications designed for essentially every level of FA production: between PCs, between PCs and host computers, or between PCs and other system components. High-speed communications processed asynchronously with the PC's cycle time are also possible.

Connect Programming Devices to monitor and program the local node or go through Host Link, SYSMAC LINK, Controller Link, Ethernet, or SYSMAC BUS/2 networks to monitor and program other nodes. You can also connect Programming Devices to Remote I/O Racks or Expansion I/O Racks to enable monitoring and programming across networks.

The CVM1 communicates easily with computers via an Ethernet network using the TCP/IP or UDP/IP international protocols. The CVM1's Ethernet Unit also supports a File Transfer Protocol, which enables file transfers as well. FINS (Factory Interface Network Service), a message communications protocol developed by OMRON for its FA controllers, also enables easy reading and writing of PC memory.
