CPE310 CPU · 10 MB User Memory · 1.1 GHz Processor
A PACSystems RX3i controller positioned between compact and high-capacity CPUs, combining 10 MB user memory, fast logic execution, dual serial communication and embedded Ethernet. It is particularly useful when an RX3i project needs more memory and communication capability than a smaller CPU while avoiding the larger CPE330 memory class.

01 / PROCESSING CORE
IC695CPE310 uses a 1.1 GHz processor and provides a typical Boolean execution speed of approximately 0.072 ms per 1,000 Boolean instructions. Floating-point operation is supported for control calculations.
02 / MEMORY BALANCE
The 10 MB user-memory level provides considerably more room than compact RX3i CPUs. The processor uses SRAM and Flash-based storage, while non-volatile storage supports retention of stored data.
03 / SERIAL + ETHERNET
CPE310 combines RS-232 and RS-485 serial ports with embedded Ethernet. Serial communication supports SNP, Serial I/O and Modbus RTU functions, while the Ethernet interface supports RX3i Ethernet communication functions.

Why CPE310? It offers a useful balance: 10 MB user memory is substantially above compact CPU levels, while dual serial interfaces preserve connectivity with equipment that still relies on RS-232 or RS-485. This makes CPE310 a practical choice for RX3i projects that need more controller capacity without moving directly to the 64 MB CPE330 class.

PURCHASE DECISION
IC695CPE310-BHAE — FAQ
Q1. Why would IC695CPE310-BHAE be selected instead of IC695CPE305 for an RX3i upgrade?
CPE310 provides 10 MB user memory and adds the RS-485 interface alongside RS-232, giving projects more memory headroom and broader serial integration capability.
Q2. Is IC695CPE310-BHAE suitable when existing equipment still communicates through RS-485?
Yes. CPE310 includes RS-485 as COM2 in addition to RS-232 COM1. Its serial communication support includes SNP, Serial I/O and Modbus RTU functions, making the interface combination valuable for mixed-generation equipment.
Q3. What does the 10 MB memory level of IC695CPE310-BHAE mean for application design?
The CPU provides 10 MB of user memory and can support up to 512 program blocks, with a maximum block size of 128 KB. This gives considerably more room for larger control applications than compact CPU classes.
Q4. Can IC695CPE310-BHAE handle a system with multiple local RX3i racks?
The CPE310 architecture supports up to eight local racks. The final rack arrangement depends on the selected backplanes, power supplies, I/O modules and communication architecture.
Q5. When is IC695CPE310-BHAE a better economic choice than IC695CPE330?
When the application needs the RX3i mid-range balance of 10 MB memory, dual serial ports and embedded Ethernet but does not require the CPE330's 64 MB memory and three-port Gigabit Ethernet architecture. Matching the CPU to actual application scale can avoid unnecessary controller capacity.
