The automation future can come

With the JUMO variTRON 500 central processing unit, JUMO is entering a new age of automation. In terms of technical possibilities, the system plays in the top class of embedded systems and impresses with its high speed performance and flexible operating philosophy.
For the first time, the JUMO variTRON 500 uses a completely new hardware and software platform, for whose development the topic of "scalability" was at the top of the agenda. The result is modular, flexible and, above all, future-proof. The basis of the JUMO variTRON 500 is a hardware platform with an 800 MHz processor, which can be used as a single, dual, or quad-core variant, depending on the application.
The software is modular based on a Linux platform and allows very good scalability of performance, memory and interfaces. Another special feature is a customer-specific configuration and process data editor.
Multiple operator stations can be integrated into the system via CODESYS remote target or web visualization, as well as up to 64 intelligent interface modules.
For individual customer-specific operation via CODESYS remote target or web visu(alization, JUMO will provide visualization libraries in the future. Furthermore, flexibility is also enabled by the integration of all important fieldbus systems via CODESYS (such as Modbus RTU or TCP master and slave, PROFINET IO controller, EtherCAT master as well as OPC UA server).
In the future, a connection to higher-level control systems will be possible alternatively via Modbus TCP via a PROFINET IO device interface.
