Compared to the C230‑2, the C240 and C240 PN have:
● A larger working memory
● A larger memory for retain data
● Higher performance
Instead of the onboard drive and measuring system interfaces, the C240 PN has a PROFINET
interface with three ports (X11 P1, X11 P2, X11 P3).
The following table lists the differences between the individual motion controllers:

Note: The MMC of the C240 and the C240 PN are identical.
Note: The MMC of the C240 / C240 PN cannot be operated in the C230-2 and vice-versa.
