The BX Controller is an IP20-rated controller that is positioned between the vendor’s IP20-rated BC and CX controllers in both price and functionality, filling a gap for low- to mid-range machine control.
As with the vendor’s other controllers, the BX allows users to program with one open software package, choose from more than 100 different I/O signals and stock one type of I/O for all of their various machine types.
