1-1 CPM2B Features and Functions

1-1-1 CPM2B Features

The CPM2B PCs are compact Board PCs that can be incorporated easily into
control equipment. The PCs are equipped with a variety of advanced features
including synchronized pulse control, interrupt inputs, high-speed counters,
pulse outputs, and a clock function.
•The compact Board design is ideal for incorporation into control equipment.
•The CPU Board itself can handle a wide range of machine control applications,
so it is ideal for use as a built-in control unit in control equipment.
•The CPM2B is equipped with a full complement of communications functions
to provide communications with personal computers, other OMRON PCs, and
OMRON Programmable Terminals. These communications capabilities allow
the user to design a low-cost distributed production system.
The CPU Board has 32 I/O points and Expansion
I/O Boards can be added to provide a total I/O ca-
pacity of up to 128 I/O points.
Peripheral Port
Programming Devices are compatible with other
models of OMRON PCs. This port can also be used
for Host Link or no-protocol communications.
RS-232C Port
This port can be used for a Host Link,
no-protocol, 1:1 PC Link, or 1:1 NT Link
communications.

Basic Functions

The CPM2B CPU Board itself is equipped with 32 I/O points in I/O terminals or
I/O connectors. There are 2 types of outputs available (relay outputs and sinking
transistor outputs). The power supply is 24 V DC only.
Up to 3 Expansion I/O Boards can be connected to the CPU Board to increase
the PC’s I/O capacity to a maximum of 128 I/O points. There are 2 types of
32-point Expansion I/O Boards available: one with relay outputs and the other
with sinking transistor outputs.
The same Programming Devices, such as Programming Consoles and Support
Software, can be used for the C200H, C200HS, C200HX/HG/HE, CQM1,
CPM1, CPM1A, CPM2A, CPM2C, and SRM1 (-V2) PCs, so existing ladder pro-
gram resources can be used effectively.

Built-in Motor Control Capability

Synchronized pulse control provides an easy way to synchronize the operation
of a peripheral piece of equipment with the main equipment. The output pulse
frequency can be controlled as some multiple of the input pulse frequency, al-
