• CPU, Remote & Expansion Modules

P3-550E CPU Module

The P3-550E is a high-performance CPU with the same features as the P3-550 CPU but without the USB B programming port and with a significant cost savings (programming via Ethernet).
P3-550 CPU Module

The P3-550 is a full-featured, high-performance CPU. Features include a 4 line x 10 character LCD display and seven communication ports which support USB, Ethernet and Serial devices.
P3-530 Basic CPU Module

The P3-530 is a lower cost full-featured, high-performance CPU (without the LCD display) and with five communication ports which support USB, Ethernet and Serial devices.
P3-RS Remote Slave Module

The P3-RS is a full-featured, high-performance Remote Slave module. Features include a 4 line x 10 character LCD display and five communications ports which support USB programming/monitoring, USB local expansion, Ethernet, and Serial devices. Up to 16 P3-RS Remote Slaves can be connected to a single P3-550 CPU remote I/O network.
P3-RX Remote Slave Module

The P3-RX is a lower cost full-featured, high-performance Remote Slave module (without the LCD display) and with four communications ports which support USB local expansion, Ethernet, and Serial devices. Up to 16 P3-RX Remote Slaves can be connected to a single P3-550 CPU remote I/O network.
P3-EX Expansion Module

The P3-EX high-performance expansion module provides local I/O expansion to a CPU or Remote I/O. Includes 6-foot USB expansion cable.
P3-LCD Kit

The P3-LCD Kit contains a replacement front housing with a new LCD and keypad already installed. A replacement faceplate is included for both the P3-550 and P3-550E.

EtherNet/IP™ Scanner/Adapter as a Standard Protocol

The Productivity3000 controller now supports the ODVA's EtherNet/IP as a standard protocol.

Through its embedded Ethernet port, the P3-550 CPU can support EtherNet/IP configurable as a Scanner or Adapter (or both simultaneously).
The P3-550 CPU can communicate to devices using either Explicit messaging or Implicit "I/O" messaging methods.
These two common implementations offer access to the majority of the EtherNet/IP devices available in the industry, including third-party controllers, drives and other I/O hardware.
In Scanner mode, the P3-550 CPU supports up to 128 total connections with a maximum of 32 devices.
Enabling the CPU to support and exchange EtherNet/IP messages simply requires completing fill-in-the-blank style configuration and Message instruction windows in the programming software.
To assist with implementation, diagnostic tags are available to help determine which layer of the protocol may be preventing successful communications.
