Product Overview
The B&R 7CP570.60-1 is a powerful x86-based central processing unit (CPU) module engineered for the B&R System 2003 automation platform. As the computational backbone of the 2003 series, the B&R 7CP570.60-1 delivers exceptional processing horsepower through its Intel Celeron 300 compatible processor, making it particularly well-suited for applications demanding short cycle times, large-volume data processing, and intensive floating-point computations. The B&R 7CP570.60-1 executes user control programs, manages I/O data traffic via its integrated I/O processor, and coordinates communication across multiple fieldbus networks, serving as the undisputed “brain” of the automation system.Architecturally, the B&R 7CP570.60-1 is equipped with 64 MB SDRAM for standard program execution, 496 KB SRAM for user RAM, and 32 KB of remanent variables protected by a lithium battery with at least 3 years of service life. The module features a dedicated CompactFlash slot that accepts ATA/True IDE CompactFlash cards ranging from 32 MB to 2 GB, enabling flexible application memory scaling to match diverse project requirements. A single aPCI insert slot allows the B&R 7CP570.60-1 to be expanded with IF7xx interface modules, connecting the CPU to virtually any industrial bus or network system. Three standard communication interfaces—one RS232 (9-pin DSUB, 115.2 kBit/s), one 10/100 Mbit/s Ethernet (RJ45), and one USB 1.1—provide comprehensive connectivity for programming, HMI integration, and peripheral expansion.The B&R 7CP570.60-1 achieves a fastest task class cycle time of 500 μs and a typical instruction cycle time of 0.018 μs, backed by 2 × 16 KB L1 cache for data and program code plus 128 KB L2 cache. A built-in floating-point unit (FPU) accelerates mathematical computations essential for complex PID control, motion profiling, and scientific data processing. Powered by 24 VDC (20.4–30 VDC range) with 15 W typical consumption, the B&R 7CP570.60-1 mounts in a single System 2003 slot with IP20 protection, operating reliably from 0°C to +60°C in horizontal installation. With comprehensive LED-based diagnostics for CPU function, battery status, CompactFlash activity, RS232 traffic, and Ethernet link, the B&R 7CP570.60-1 represents a battle-tested, long-life control solution for legacy automation systems where continuity is paramount.
