C Controller module, C intelligent function module

The C Controller and C intelligent function modules are open platform controllers that can execute C/C++ programs, based on the MELSEC system architecture, and utilize long-term stable supply, high availability, advanced functionality, and flexible features.
High-speed complex processing that is not possible with a ladder program is achieved while carrying out the MELSEC iQ-R Series module management and I/O control in C/C++ programs.

R12CCPU-V

RAM: 256 MB

• Real-time control
  Embedded with VxWorks®, the C Controller realizes real-time control which may not be possible with a general-purpose OS.
• Procesamiento de alta velocidad
  C language (C/C++) based programming realizes a high-speed processing.
• Easier system configuration
  The module can be immediately utilized as the C Controller dedicated functions are pre-installed.

Features^{Troublesome information processing is easy in C/C++}

• C/C++ program
• Programación fácil
• Intelligent protection

• Troublesome information processing (complex arithmetic and string processing) is much easier in C/C++ programs than implementing in ladder form
• Intellectual property is simplified by separating it from the ladder program using C Controller module or C intelligent function module, preventing leakage of proprietary technology

Easier development utilizing dedicated functions and partner applications

• Dedicated functions and libraries
• Partner applications
• Debian GNU/Linux

• Easily access to modules using dedicated functions and communication libraries. In addition, by utilizing partner applications supporting different manufacturing equipment features, various systems can be configured
• The C intelligent function module utilizes Debian GNU/Linux allowing machines to utilize the latest data processing technology developed by the community, helping to reduce development time
• Key features such as remote operation, predictive maintenance, and remote maintenance of machines can be easily implemented in the C intelligent function module through connection with third-party cloud services

Easy parameter setup, diagnostics, monitoring and test in the dedicated development environmentR12CCPU-V

• Easy setup
• Diagnóstico sencillo

• CW Configurator enables parameter setup, module diagnostics, monitoring, and test of various MELSEC iQ-R/Q Series modules including the C Controller module
• Using CW Configurator is as easy as using the engineering software GX Works3, which shares similar interfaces

Application development in simple steps

• Programación fácil
• Simulation without hardware

• Developing applications with the C Controller module is easy as no additional driver development is required, thereby providing a full-scale embedded development environment at a relatively low cost
• CW Workbench enables programming in C/C++
• CW-Sim/CW-Sim Standalone allows simulation of VxWorks® without requiring any hardware
