The CompactLogix system is a Logix controller system widely used in medium and small industrial applications. These systems are used to control applications on the machine level. In general, a CompactLogix system is built by using a controller equipped with I/O modules and the DeviceNet communication network. The manufactured CompactLogix system offers state-of-the-art control, I/O, and communication in a compact package. It is manufactured with different specifications to meet different application needs based on the input type, output, memory type, communication module, enclosure type, and mounting options. The CompactLogix system can be controlled by using the RSLogix 5000 programming software. The Logix system is equipped with a variety of communication ports, including the Ethernet/IP and ControlNet ports. These ports are used with different kinds of networks. The built-in serial port is available to connect extra add-on devices to the controller system. The device support local expansion modules.
The CompactLogix system can support 16/30 I/O modules with a maximum of 3 I/O banks with 2 expansion cables. The controller can keep the network parameters at any legal node address. An additional CompactFlash card can be added for extra storage. All the CompactLogix systems can be mounted by using a DIN Rail. During mounting, the spacing between enclosure walls and wireways should be maintained for proper airflow. The controllers are equipped with a lithium-ion battery to supply power. The batteries should be stored in a cool and dry place. All of the controller devices are equipped with a reset button which clears the user programs from the internal memory if the controllers have trouble during the startup. The controllers support device-level ring, linear, and traditional star topology. All of the CompactLogix controllers come with a 1-year warranty, starting from the date of installation.
