Modern vehicles and mobile machines need very powerful control electronics to process the high number of input and output signals. That is why the new third generation ecomatController was developed: It has two independent, powerful 32-bit PLCs – one of them a certified safety controller. In addition to its multifunctional inputs and outputs with diagnostic capabilities, the unit features two Ethernet ports and four CAN interfaces. The CAN interfaces support all important bus protocols (CANopen, CANopen Safety and J1939) as well as the transparent and preprocessed data exchange. The control functions are easily integrated into the application program thanks to CODESYS programming (version 3.5).
