The compact, flexible and inexpensive mini controller replaces conventional relay logic and also demanding and complex process controllers.
The control electronics integrated in a compact plastic housing provides all the necessary connections for the inputs and outputs, communication and programming. The coded connectors for mobile use are easy to handle and available all over the world. The connection of sensors and actuators is carried out without further external wiring. Due to an increase of the protection rating through a cover and a pluggable cable seal the BasicController can also be used in areas that are exposed to splashing water.
The integrated 32-bit processor and electronics are optimally tailored to the application. Inputs and outputs can be configured via the user program and the powerful plug-in relay outputs enable the connection of high-current consumers. All relay outputs are individually protected and each output has a freely programmable status LED. Thanks to the additional multi-functional inputs, a flexible control module for mobile machines is created.
The CODESYS software enables a clear easy implementation by the user as the BasicController supports all common CODESYS programming languages. Simple and clearly structured function libraries are available for communication and other special device functions.
The controller is equipped with two CAN interfaces used to exchange data with the connected BasicDisplay, other BasicController modules or the engine controller. Among others, the interfaces support the CANopen protocol and the J1939 protocol. The CAN interfaces are also used for programming. To do so, the unit electronics are activated via the powerful PC-CAN interface CANfox. In this way, the operating system and application program can be loaded or parameters changed.

Electrical Power & Protection
Despite growing digitalisation, there are still many situations where analogue measured values such as the level in a tank or the temperature of a climatised room must be directly readable in the control cabinet or at the control desk. The current loop display is designed for precisely this purpose.
