Flexibility and Scalability

PACSystems provides a vast amount of I/O, communications, and specialty modules to handle a variety of process and discrete

applications. It provides one of the best migration paths in the industry with the ability to bring Series 90-30 modules directly

into the PACSystems backplane to save rewiring and space. In addition, programs move with ease to the new programming

and configuration environment, PAC Machine Edition, getting applications up and running in minutes.

Secure by Design

With defense-in-depth architectures and security built in, we secure assets from potential cyber threats to protect our

customers’ most important assets. RX3i Controllers prioritize security with technologies such as Trusted Platform Modules

(TPM) and digitally signed firmware. Understanding industrial controls are constant targets of cyber threats, we’ve also

designed all RX3i Controllers to protect against harmful man-in-the-middle and denial- of-service attacks as indicated by

Achilles Level 2 Certifications. Encrypted communications are executed through pre-installed, pre-licensed OPC UA while a

broad suite of cyber-security tools help prevent unauthorized updates.

PROFINET Advantage

PROFINET® I/O solutions can provide productivity and performance advantages for virtually any type of control application

in a range of industries. Connect to any of Emerson’s purpose-built I/O families through a PROFINET interface for advanced

flexibility and performance.

Best Availability

Can your process controller keep up with system demands?

Many of today’s controllers take hundreds of milliseconds or more to switch over in the event of a fault or other system event.

Often controllers are also limited in real I/O connections due to bottlenecks in overall data collection. Eliminate delays by

combining RX3i and PROFINET to get gigabit speed everywhere and bumpless switchover.

Choose RX3i high availability and prevent unexpected failure and costly downtime.

Introduction

Equipment builders are continuously looking for ways to improve the performance and flexibility of their equipment while

reducing size and complexity. Fast, easy-to-configure connectivity to Emerson’s PACSystems controllers and extensive range

of I/O options enables scalable machine automation and highly distributed modular machine designs. The end result is high

performance automation for the industrial internet.

High Performance

Analyze and improve even the most complex application right at the source. The latest RX3i Controllers now offer multiple

processing cores, allowing you to do more with your Controllers. A large working memory in every high-speed RX3i Controllers

lets you store more data and access it faster than ever before. The RX3i offers premier, high-speed performance and data

handling across any multi-disciplined control system. Whether you’re accessing consistent gigabit speed data across the

backplane or over fiber, kilometers away, the RX3i Controllers are built for rapid, reliable performance.

PROFINET Advantage

PROFINET® I/O solutions can provide productivity and performance advantages for virtually any type of control application

in a range of industries. Connect to any of Emerson’s purpose-built I/O families through a PROFINET interface for advanced

flexibility and performance.

Labor Saving Open Programming

and Fleet Management

For many companies, expert technical talent is hard to find,

hard to keep, and expensive. To combat this triple threat,

an effective strategy when it comes to automation is to seek

solutions which not only save time but can also be effectively

used by a larger talent pool.

That’s why in addition to supporting traditional IEC 61131

languages, the RSTi-EP CPE200 compact controllers also

natively support C, one of the world’s most popular and

easiest-to-use programming languages. This makes it faster

and easier for more engineers to write and run the high-

performance algorithms that enable proprietary production

strategies and advanced automation technologies.

Another labor-saving feature is the capability to execute

fleet-wide application commissioning and updates without

ever connecting a laptop. Simply store application variables

to an SD card from User Logic to enable portable individual

unit tuning parameters on standardized machine control

application deployments.  Use these for deploying

standardized tuning parameters across a set of machines

or for toolless controller replacement in the unlikely

event of a failure.

One Runtime. One Tool Chain.

Since the PACSystems RSTi-EP CPE200 compact controllers

use the same runtime as existing RX3i controllers, users can

leverage their existing application libraries and templates

while scaling footprint and performance for smaller application

installations. Fast, easy-to-configure PACSystems technology

and an extensive range of native I/O options support scalable

automation and highly distributed modular machine designs.

Open Communications to Enable

Supply Chain Flexibility

In today’s interconnected global economy, unexpected external

events create disruptions which have a massive impact on

narrow and rigid sourcing plans. Now more than ever companies

need to design systems with supply chain flexibility in mind.

To build a pliable supply strategy, leading companies are

seeking products which anticipate uncertainty and offer

them the maximum freedom to effectively operate

no matter what happens.

The RSTi-EP CPE200 compact controller series is designed

to enable supply chain flexibility. We have built-in open

communications to allow you to easily connect a very wide

range of 3rd party devices. With real time I/O networking

capabilities, up to 3x 1-Gbps Ethernet ports and support of all

popular communication protocols including PROFINET©,

OPC UA, Modbus/TCP, and DNP3 the RSTi-EP CPE200

compact controller gives you the resilience to succeed.

Cybersecurity Out of the Box

Industrial controls are constant targets of cyber threats.

We understand the risk involved in securing our customers’

most important assets. We believe in defense-in-depth

architectures to secure assets from potential cyber threats.

With Achilles Level 2 Certification, the RSTi-EP CPE200

compact controller series has been developed to be secure

by design, incorporating technologies such as Trusted

Platform Modules, and secure boot to prevent malicious

applications and “unauthorized” operating systems.

A centralized configuration allows encrypted firmware updates

to be executed from a secure central location. A broad suite of

cyber-security technology and tools help prevent unauthorized

updates while built-in secure communication protocols help

protect against man-in-the middle and denial of service attacks.

Compact  Programmable Automation Controllers

Everything you need today to meet the business challenges of tomorrow

With security-by-design, open programming, and open

communications built in, the RSTi-EP CPE200 compact

controller series simplifies connectivity to traditional sensors

and actuators as well as external analytics software platforms

while reducing cost and complexity for OEMs and end users.

Using the same high-performance runtime and toolchain

as the PACSystems™ RX3i large controllers, this compact

controller series delivers large Programmable Logic

Controller (PLC) capability in a small, cost-effective,

IIoT-ready form-factor so machine manufacturers need

not sacrifice productivity or performance.

Easy Troubleshooting and

Machine Setup

Using integrated PAC Machine Edition (PME) software, you can

easily configure VersaMax I/O. PME is the same software as all

PACSystems CPUs so you only need a single tool from small to

large applications. This approach utilizes the same hardware

configuration, network configuration, and programming

editors. HMI development is also streamlined with a single tag

database for QuickPanel+ HMIs.
