Cloud Edge Gateway

The CPU module PCM5.2 of AWC 500 features a 1 GHz dual-core ARMv7 CPU with a real-time Linux OS and latest CODESYS V3.5 PLC runtime. It has two independent Gigabit Network Interfaces and two native EtherCAT ports.

The OS is fully functional only 5 seconds after the power has been switched on and is robust in every detail from mechanical and climatic specifications, e.g.:

Operating temperatures ranging from -40 to +70 °C
OS features like dual boot images.

We maintain our Linux OS in-house.

If the 2 GB internal flash storage is not enough, massive data storage can be achieved with the internal slot for mSATA drives.

You can use the combination of CODESYS application, Linux Shell BASH scripting or even full C/C++ applications to bridge your plant with cloud services.

Protocols supported are among others, SSH, SCP, NTP, HTTPS, WSS, EtherCAT master, Modbus TCP Client and Server, OPC UA Server, Profibus DP Master and Slave, RS-422/485 Serial Communication, CAN layer II, CANopen Master and Slave.

This it perfect as a cloud edge gateway.
