4.2 Controller: The control centre of the Controller-based Automation
Cabinet controllers: Compact control cabinet design
Cabinet controllers are designed for the demanding continuous use in industrial applications.
Compared to panel controllers, they are not equipped with an integrated display. The Controllers
3231 C and 3241 C are provided with a DVI interface for the connection of an external monitor
panel.
Mounting is carried out in a control cabinet or a corresponding built-in housing on a standard DIN
rail (35 mm). The device-internal backplane bus provides for a direct connection of the I/O system
1000.
Panel controllers: controlling and visualising
Panel controllers are designed for the installation into control cabinets, machine panels, or other
mounting cutouts. They are equipped with rear bolts and clamping screws which provide for easy
mounting and reliable sealing (front panel enclosure IP65/rear panel IP20) in rough industrial
environments. They can be operated easily by directly touching the screen.
