The ControlWave

®

Micro is a highly programmable

controller that combines the unique capabilities of a

programmable logic controller (PLC) and a remote terminal

unit (RTU) into a single hybrid controller. The ControlWave
Micro maximizes the performance of a wide range of control

systems with a design emphasis on low power consumption,

scalability, and modularity.

Due to its small form factor and rugged industrial design,
the ControlWave Micro meets the requirements of the most

demanding process plant and remote SCADA system

environments. The ControlWave Micro can be seamlessly
combined with other members in the ControlWave family of

products for optimum system architecture.

Base and Expansion Units

The ControlWave Micro base unit is constructed of

aluminum and consists of a power module; a CPU module;

and a three, four, or eight-slot housing. The CPU and power
modules are installed into the first two slots of the housing,

and the remaining slots are used to add optional

input/output (I/O) modules or communications modules.

Expansion units are constructed of aluminum and add an

additional two, four, or eight-slot housing that attaches to

the base unit. These additional slots may be used for I/O

modules.

CPU Options

The ControlWave Micro is available with either a 33 MHz

CPU module for low-power applications or a 150 MHz CPU

module for greater processing power.

The 33 MHz CPU module contains 2 MB of battery-backed

SRAM, 64 MB SDRAM and 16 MB of flash memory. The

33 MHz CPU module also contains two on-board RS-232
communication ports and one on-board RS-485

communication port.

The 150 MHz CPU module contains 2 MB of SRAM, 64 MB

SDRAM and 16 MB of flash memory. The 150 MHz CPU
module is available with the following on-board

communication port configurations:



Two RS-232 ports and one RS-485 port



One Ethernet port, two RS-232 ports, and one RS-485

port



Two Ethernet ports, one RS-232 port, and one RS-485

port
