System Overview

The KBox C-101 System is a highly scalable and flexible industrial automation process monitor and control system. As
such, it is designed to provide application process visualization and supervisory interaction capability. Performance
scalability is achieved through the use of various Kontron COM Express® CPU modules (form factor: basic and type 6
pinout).

KBox C-101 offers maintenance free ("Wartungsfrei") operation. That means it operates without battery, fans and
rotating media (HDD's). The system flexibility is a result of the basic design concept of the KBox C-101:
❏ use of a prime carrier board which provides COM Express® and a set of standard IO interfacing

❏ a comprehensive set of optionally available IOs and devices.
The following interfaces are available with the KBox C-101:
