SIEMENS PXC5.E003 System Controller

Product Information

The DesigoTM System Controller PXC5.E003 is a programmable system controller for the integration of BACnet/MSTP, Modbus, and KNX PL-Link devices. It has a communication BACnet/IP (BTL certified) and a 2-port Ethernet switch for low- cost cabling. The system controller integrates Modbus data points via RTU and/or TCP, BACnet MS/TP devices, and KNX PL-Link bus to connect sensors and operator units (including bus power). This system controller operates on AC 24 V and can be mounted on standard rails or on the wall using plug-in screw terminal blocks.
