Product catalog summary
Introduction
Horner Automation introduces its latest innovation, the Modular Controller, known for its flexibility and integration capabilities. These controllers allow for individual component placement and are programmed using the Cscape software package.

Key Features of Modular Controllers
The standout feature is the ability to separate the HMI touchscreen from the controller, allowing remote mounting without setup. The HMI Connect touchscreens connect via a rugged 4-pin cable and are available in IP65/NEMA 4X and IP67 models, ranging from 4” to 15”.

Installation and Connectivity
Modular Controllers are DIN-rail mounted and support both built-in and add-on I/O. They offer extensive connectivity options, supporting protocols like Ethernet IP, Modbus TCP, CANopen, and more. USB-C is available for programming, and all models support Horner’s OCS360 cloud service.

Modular Controller Models
  • CPU300: Features Canvas Graphics, dual ethernet adapters, and supports up to 8 add-on I/O modules.
  • CPU260: Offers Standard Graphics, 34 built-in I/O, and supports add-on HMI Connect touchscreens.
  • CPU250 and CPU200: Micro class products with built-in I/O, designed for applications without a physical HMI.


Technical Specifications
  • CPU300: Dual-core processor, 2 MB logic memory, supports up to three identical touchscreens.
  • CPU260: Single-core processor, 2 MB logic memory, supports flexible I/O configuration.


Environmental and Physical Specifications
All models operate within -40° to 60°C and have an IP20 environmental rating. They are powered by 10-30VDC supply.

OCS-I/O Bases and Modules
Various models are available for different input and output configurations, including DC In, AC In, DC Out, Relay Out, Analog In, and Analog Out.

Conclusion
Horner Automation’s Modular Controllers offer a highly flexible and expandable control solution, suitable for a wide range of industrial applications.

Modular Controllers Highly Flexible & Expandable Control Solutions The Latest Innovation from Horner Automation Known for our All-in-one Controllers (Logic, I/O, HMI + Network) we are introducing our latest innovation – the Modular Controller. These are some of the most flexible controllers available – with individual components placed exactly where you want them - programmed as a single, integrated component using our free, All-in-one software package, Cscape. What makes Modular Controllers innovative? The headline feature is the ability to “unbolt” the HMI Touchscreen from the All-in-one Controller – mounting it remotely and treating it purely as a hardware component requiring absolutely no setup. We call these new add-on touchscreen components HMI Connect, which simply connects to the Modular Controller using a rugged, 4-pin cable (15m, max) with power, video and touch feedback. If multiple screens are desired – connect an HMI Connect splitter between the CPU and the displays. HMI Connect is powered using automotive technology – NOT consumer technology – ensuring long, reliable operation. HMI Connect touchscreens are available in both IP65/NEMA 4X and IP67 models in sizes from 4” to 15”. Modular Controllers offer other conveniences as well. They are mounted on DIN-rail and support I/O that is snapped on the side, built-in, or both. That means all of your I/O wiring can be buried in the panel, which for many customers is the preferred approach. And if your I/O needs are distributed, up to 16-bases (8 modules each) can be remotely located. Connectivity is extensive, with all models supporting industrial protocols including Ethernet IP (server & HMI), Modbus TCP (client/server), CANopen (master/slave), RTU/ Modbus (master/slave) and more. All models support USB-C for programming. Logic languages supported include traditional Ladder and IEC 6-1131. And all models support Horner’s OCS360 cloud service – with remote connectivity, push data, long-term data storage, dashboarding, alarm notifications, and more. MODULAR CONTROLLER MODELS The CPU300 is our flagship Modular Controller, with Canvas Graphics and our fastest logic scan rates on its multi-core processor. For extra connectivity, it offers dual ethernet adapters and a local 2.2” screen for local configuration (IP Address, RUN/STOP, etc.). It’s I/O is strictly add-on using OCS-I/O modules (up to 8) snapped on the backplane. It’s program includes HMI screens and supports add-on HMI Connect touchscreens. The CPU260 offers flexible, Standard Graphics and strong logic performance. It supports add-on I/O and 34 built-in I/O. Eight of the 34 points are Flexible I/O, configured point-by-point as 5/12/24 Digital In or 4-20mA/0-10V Analog In. It’s program also includes HMI screens and supports add-on HMI Connect touchscreens. The CPU250 (34 built-in I/O) and CPU200 (add-on I/O only) are Micro class products which are an excellent value and are designed for applications where a physical HMI is just not required, so HMI Connect support is not included.
