Control Processes
Soft PLC with CODESYS
Combine the reliability of a programmable logic controller (PLC) with the flexibility of Linux for your automation tasks:
With CODESYS, Revolution Pi becomes a powerful PLC according to the IEC 61131-3 standard. The real-time Linux operating system enables cycle times of up to five milliseconds.
Connect our analog and digital RevPi I/O modules and use protocols such as PROFINET, PROFIBUS, EtherCAT, Modbus RTU, OPC UA and MQTT.
With CODESYS, you can program in familiar languages such as structured text (ST), ladder diagram (LD) or function block diagram (FBD) and combine them flexibly with other software.
Versatile Connection of Devices
Industrial PC (IPC)
Use Revolution Pi as a compact and robust industrial PC on the DIN rail that combines Linux power with industrial reliability.
The fanless quad-core ARM processor runs reliably at temperatures between -25 and +55 °C and offers powerful computing power for your individual industrial applications.
Connect devices in parallel via USB, HDMI, Ethernet, RS485 and CAN FD and discover the limitless possibilities of manufacturer-independent open source software.
Transfer Data Securely
Industrial IoT Gateway
Revolution Pi lets you connect everything: PLCs from various manufacturers, fieldbus systems and industrial protocols, all common industrial sensor types – from analog to digital to IO-Link.
The powerful protocol conversion to OPC UA and MQTT enables the networking of IT and OT systems such as machines and plants.
Revolution Pi is certified for cloud platforms such as AWS, Azure, and Cumulocity. You can process data locally on the platform and transfer it securely thanks to the integrated Trusted Platform Module (TPM 2.0).
With Balena, you can manage and monitor your device fleet remotely.
Visualize Data
HMI and Web HMI
Use Revolution Pi as a powerful, flexible visualization system. You can connect industrial-grade touchscreens or production displays via HDMI.
You can develop modern user interfaces with web technologies such as CODESYS WebVisu or Node-RED – even without license costs.
The beauty of web HMIs? They allow access via PC or mobile devices while on the move – always stay up to date instead of running a marathon to the control system. If required, your Revolution Pi can control processes in parallel as a PLC.
Process Data Locally
Edge Device
With Revolution Pi, you don't just access machine and sensor data, you process it directly at the point of origin. Revolution Pi's powerful quad-core ARM architecture is perfect for demanding edge computing tasks.
With minimal energy consumption, you can intelligently analyze and filter data before it goes to the cloud – saving bandwidth and enabling faster responses.
Use Python NumPy and SciPy for calculations and complex models, and Docker containers for microservices.
Revolution Pi processes HD video streams from up to two cameras in real-time and performs sophisticated AI analyses with TensorFlow – ideal for industrial image processing and machine learning directly at the edge.

Industrial Raspberry Pi
Unlike the Raspberry Pi, Revolution Pi is certified for industrial use and comes with a 24 V power supply.
At its heart is the Raspberry Pi Compute Module, specially developed for industrial applications. It impresses with its permanently installed eMMC memory and guaranteed long-term availability.
The power supply is 10.7 V DC to 28.8 V DC – reverse polarity protected and without moving parts thanks to the fanless design.
Industrial Standards
Revolution Pi guarantees you maximum reliability. The hardware meets the highest industrial standards and is engineered for continuous operation at temperatures from -25 °C to +55 °C.
- EMC-compliant according to IEC 61000-6-4 and IEC 61000-6-2
- Industrial PLC according to the PLC standard EN 61131-2
- UL certification for the American market
Real-Time Linux System
Revolution Pi's operating system is based on Raspberry Pi OS including a real-time patch for industrial real-time applications. Revolution Pi's configuration software enables no-code MQTT and OPC UA support, among other things.
Central Process Image
Revolution Pi supports the established automation standards:
- 24 volt digital signals
- 4 to 20 milliamps
- 0 to 10 volt analog values
- Industrial temperature sensors
- RS485 interfaces
A central process image manages all status values of the I/Os and fieldbuses – configurable via our tool PiCtory.
High Quality Standards
Produced in Germany
KUNBUS has been manufacturing all Revolution Pis in Denkendorf near Stuttgart since 2016 using state-of-the-art technology and strict quality controls. Every device undergoes complete end-of-line testing.
Two SMD assembly lines with Fuji machines, robot-assisted production, and a modern wave soldering system guarantee the highest quality.
Made in Germany is not a label for us – it is our promise to deliver industry-standard quality that you can rely on.
