sysWORXX CTR-750 Controller
Computing power meets connectivity in the field and cloud
Our sysWORXX CTR-750 is a Linux-based compact controller that offers extended connectivity and customized field connection with an integrated LTE modem. It is fast, powerful, and versatile, and can be integrated into applications in the shortest possible time. It supports all common high-level programming languages such as C/C++, Rust, C# (Mono), Java, and Python, and can be programmed as a PLC in IEC 61131-3 using the OpenPCS programming environment. The low-code environment Node-RED can be used immediately for an easy start, even for non-computer scientists. The CTR module is ready for use with all common cloud providers thanks to standard protocols such as MQTT and REST. The integrated LTE modem enables connection to cloud or IoT platforms directly from the field. Our sysWORXX CTR-750 thus takes condition monitoring directly on site in the field to a new level.
Product benefits
- Support of modern high-level languages (execution of IEC 61131-3 PLC programs and other Linux applications)
- Independent Ethernet interfaces for a safe separation of enterprise IT and shop floor OT
- Use of protocols such as CANopen (incl. CANopen Manager Service for integration of other CANopen modules)
- Support of communication and data exchange with other devices via Modbus protocol
- Shielded backplane extension bus
- suitable for DIN-rail mounting
Application Scenarios
- Collection, consolidation and analysis of data points from system to be monitored
- Condition Monitoring (permanent status monitoring)
- Energy Management (Smart Building, Smart Industry)
- Predictive Maintenance
- Integration into Mesh net
- Narrowband functionality (from 2018)
CTR-700 speaks the language of your employees
The special feature of the sysWORXX CTR-700 is the software. It can be programmed via IEC 61131-3 as well as in various IoT languages (C#/.Net, Node-RED, Java, Python). Thus it is not necessary to require an expensive external service. The controller speaks the language of the employees.

Direct Connection via Extension module
Via the backplane expansion bus, the CTR-700 can be easily integrated into mesh networks using our extension module. We use our partner software for this solution - Wirepas Connectivity.
Wirepas Connectivity Software provides a connectivity solution optimized for performance, bandwidth, range and latency. The technology is hardware-independent - the protocol runs on every wireless chip. The Mesh net solution allows customers to run the network on batteries for up to 15 years. With this MeshNet solution, they are able to flexibly optimize the connection solution for the application in terms of performance, bandwidth, range and latency.
Planned Launch: Q2 / 2018
With the new TeamViewer IoT-integration for our sysWORXX CTR-700 you can now access your devices and make any necessary adjustments from anywhere and at any time. No matter, if you are at home, on the road or simply at a different spot with your office building.
All TeamViewer versions use full encryption. Encryption is based on 2048bit RSA private/public key exchange and 256 Bit AES session encoding. This uses the same security level as https/SSL and is considered completely safe by today's standards. The key exchange also guarantees that the data transfer is completely encoded from client to client and that any routers or servers in between (including our routers) are unable to read or analyze the data stream. Security and privacy have always been a top priority during development: https://www.teamviewer.com/security/.
