Frequently Asked Questions

What is the main difference between internal RAM and extension memory?

Internal RAM (48K words) is the CPU's fast, built-in memory for running the active control program. Extension memory (128K words) is added via a PCMCIA card, typically used for storing backup programs, recipes, or data logs.

Does the CPU power the entire I/O rack by itself?

No. The TSXP5720 requires its own 5V DC power from a dedicated power supply module in the rack. This power supply module provides the higher currents needed for all the I/O modules in the system.

What does the IP20 protection rating mean for installation?

IP20 means the module is protected against touch by fingers (IP2X) but offers no protection against water (IPX0). It must be installed inside a protected control panel in a clean, dry, indoor environment.

Can I connect this CPU directly to a standard Ethernet network?

Yes, through the ETHWAY/TCP IP network option. This allows the TSXP5720 to communicate using standard Ethernet TCP/IP protocols for integration with HMIs, SCADA systems, or other network devices.

How many I/O modules can I connect to this CPU?

The limit is defined by the total number of I/O points (1024 discrete + 80 analog), not a fixed number of modules. The exact number of modules depends on their point density (e.g., 16-point vs. 32-point cards) and the rack's configuration rules.
