The new backplane bus of B&R increases the performance of the X20 system. The X2X+ backplane bus is an option, increasing the performance of the X20 system by a factor of four. As all existing X20 I/O modules are already compatible with X2X+, bus modules are all it takes to build more powerful machines. These newly added features increase machine performance. The varied advantages of this new bus are particularly apparent in applications involving many I/O modules or high data volume but where short cycle times are imperative. It is possible to set up two separate cycle times to transport less timecritical data more slowly and generate less network and processor load. In this way, complex high-speed processes can be controlled reliably using cost-effective standard hardware. With high sampling rates, X2X+ enables faster data transfer and up to four times faster response times. With this higher bandwidth, large amounts of data can be handled better, and higher sampling rates can be achieved. This is an advantage when measuring vibration, for example, and results in more accurate condition monitoring across the board. With its extraordinary performance-oriented details and sophisticated ergonomic design, the X20 System is more than a remote I/O system and a complete control solution.
