Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1: What is the Siemens 6AU1432-2AA00-0AA0?
It is the SIMOTION CX32-2 Controller Extension, a drive-based control module that increases the number of axes controllable by a SIMOTION D4x5-2 motion controller. It is a SINAMICS S120 Booksize-format module with 4 DRIVE-CLiQ interfaces and integrated digital I/O .
Q2: What is the primary function of the CX32-2?
Its primary function is to scale the drive axis count of a SIMOTION D4x5-2 system. When the main controller’s integrated drive control is insufficient for the required number of axes, adding a CX32-2 provides additional drive-side computing capacity .
Q3: How many axes can one CX32-2 control?
Each CX32-2 can manage up to 6 servo axes, 6 vector axes, or 12 U/f axes (including one infeed). It cannot mix servo and vector control on the same module, but U/f can be combined with either .
Q4: How many CX32-2 modules can be used with a SIMOTION controller?
Q5: Is this product still in production?
No. Siemens has announced the phase-out of this product, effective 01.10.2025 (PLM status PM400). It is classified as a spare part and is available through remaining stock .
Q6: Can I use the older CX32 (6SL3040-0NA00-0AA0) with a SIMOTION D4x5-2?
No. The older CX32 is not compatible with D4x5-2 controllers. Using it causes topology error F01360 (Topology: Actual topology not permitted) . Only the CX32-2 (6AU1432-2AA00-0AA0) is compatible.
Q7: What are the interfaces on the CX32-2?
It has 6 digital inputs (DI), 4 bidirectional digital inputs/outputs (DI/DO), and 4 DRIVE-CLiQ interfaces .
Q8: What is the net weight and country of origin?
Net weight is 2.600 kg. Country of origin is Germany .
Q9: What should I verify before ordering?
Always verify the exact part number (6AU1432-2AA00-0AA0 for CX32-2), confirm your SIMOTION controller model is a D4x5-2 series, and check that you are not ordering the incompatible older CX32. Ensure the axis count and control mode (servo vs. vector) requirements match the CX32-2’s capabilities.
