M258 / LMC058 Controller Main Features
The following figure gives the main features of a controller:
1 Controller
2a PCI slot with cover
2b PCI slot with cover removed
3 Controller Power Distribution Module (CPDM)
4 Embedded expert I/Os
5 Embedded regular I/Os
There are two PCI slots to connect up to two interface modules depending on the controller reference.
The following figure shows the location of PCI slots of the controllers:
The PCI modules are used for specific application expansions of the controller. They are inserted in the PCI slots of the controller:

NOTICE |
ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE |
oVerify that empty PCI slots have their covers in place before applying power to the controller. oNever touch an exposed PCI connector. |
Failure to follow these instructions can result in equipment damage. |
Controller Power Distribution Module (CPDM)
The distribution of power by the CDPM consists of three dedicated electrical circuits:
Designation |
Description |
---|---|
24 Vdc embedded expert modules power |
24 Vdc power that serves the embedded expert I/O modules of the controller and the encoder (depends on references) |
24 Vdc Main power |
24 Vdc power that serves the electronics of the controller and generates independent power for: oPCI communication modules (depends on references), oModbus connected devices, oUSB keys, oElectronics of the embedded regular I/O, oTM5 power bus that serves the expansion modules. |
24 Vdc I/O power segment |
The 24 Vdc power that serves: othe embedded regular I/O, othe sensors and actuators connected to the embedded regular I/O, othe expansion modules, othe sensors and actuators connected to the expansion modules, othe external devices connected to the Common Distribution Modules (CDM). |
The following figure shows the terminal block assignments of the CPDM:
1 24 Vdc embedded expert modules power
2 24 Vdc Main power
3 24 Vdc I/O power segment
The following figure shows the location of the expert I/Os of the controller:
The controllers have two embedded expert I/O groups. Each group contains:
o5 fast inputs
o2 regular inputs
o2 fast outputs
Each group can be configured as:
o1 to 4 simple High Speed Counters (HSC)
o1 main HSC
o1 Pulse Width Modulated (PWM) output
o1 frequency generator
o1 encoder interface
Fast inputs resolution is up to 200 kHz.
NOTE: When a fast input is not used by special function, it can be used as a regular input.
Fast outputs resolution is up to 100 kHz.
NOTE: When a fast output is not used by special function, it can be used as a regular output.
The following figure shows the location of the embedded regular I/Os of the controller:
The following table gives a short description of the different regular I/Os embedded in the controller, depending on the controller reference:
