Functions

The CPX 928 is a single slot PLC CPU that is

programmed and configured by MS-DOS or

Windows based programming software to perform

real time control of machines, processes and material

handling systems. It communicates with I/O and

smart option modules over the rack-mounted

backplane using the VME C.1 Standard format.

Supported option modules include LAN Interface

modules, Programmable Coprocessor, Alphanumeric

Display Coprocessor, Bus Controller for IC660/661 I/O

products, Communications modules, I/O Link

Interface, and all of the IC697 family of discrete and

analog I/O modules.
