2.1 Intended use

The CX51x0 Embedded PC is a control system and is intended for mounting on a DIN rail in a control cabinet or terminal box. The Embedded PC series is used in conjunction with Bus Terminals for recording digital or analog signals from sensors and transferring them to actuators or higher-level controllers.

The Embedded PC is designed for a working environment that meets the requirements of protection class IP20. This involves finger protection and protection against solid foreign objects up to 12.5 mm, but not protection against water. Operation of the devices in wet and dusty environments is not permitted, unless specified otherwise. The specified limits for electrical and technical data must be adhered to.

Potentially explosive atmospheres

Device modification CX2900-0107 is mandatory for operation of the Embedded PC in potentially explosive atmospheres, zone 2/22. The device modification includes a factory-installed retainer bracket for mechanically securing the plug connectors.

The device modification is mandatory for operating the Embedded PC in the following potentially explosive atmospheres:

1. For Zone 2 atmospheres in which gas is present as a combustible material. Zone 2 means that an explosive atmosphere does usually not occur during normal operation, or only for a short time.

2. For Zone 22 atmospheres in which dust is present as a combustible material. Zone 22 means that an explosive atmosphere in the form of a cloud does usually not occur during normal operation, or only for a short time.

The Embedded PC must be installed in a housing, which ensures protection class IP 54 for gas according to EN 60079-15. A housing with protection class IP 54 is required for non-conductive dust. IP 6X is required for conductive dust according to EN 60079-31.

Improper use

The Embedded PC is not suitable for operation in the following areas:

• In potentially explosive atmospheres, the Embedded PC may not be used in other zones except for 2/22 and not without a suitable housing.

• Areas with an aggressive environment, e.g. aggressive gases or chemicals.

• Living areas. In living areas, the relevant standards and guidelines for interference emissions must be adhered to, and the devices must be installed in housings or control boxes with suitable attenuation of shielding.

For your safety

CX51x0 9Version: 1.9

2.2 Staff qualification

All operations involving Beckhoff software and hardware may only be carried out by qualified personnel with knowledge of control and automation engineering. The qualified personnel must have knowledge of the administration of the Embedded PC and the associated network.

All interventions must be carried out with knowledge of control programming, and the qualified personnel must be familiar with the current standards and guidelines for the automation environment.

2.3 Safety instructions

The following safety instructions must be followed during installation and working with networks and the software.

Explosion protection

Device modification CX2900-0107 is mandatory for operation of the Embedded PC in potentially explosive atmospheres, zone 2/22. The device modification entails the modification and relocation of the device label and a factory-fitted retainer bracket for mechanically securing the connectors.

WARNING

Operation without device modification

Without the CX2900-0107 device modification, the USB plug connectors may slip out of the USB ports due to vibration, which may trigger a deflagration or explosion.

The Embedded PC must only be used with the device modification, and the USB plug connectors must be secured to the retainer brackets with cable ties.

Tighten the screws of the DVI plug connector and, if present, also the screws of the fieldbus plug connectors, in order to prevent the plug connectors slipping out. Only use RJ45 connectors with an intact latch. Use cable ties to secure the USB plug connectors and RJ45 connectors to the retainer brackets.

The CXxxxx-N020 optional interface (audio interface) may not be used in potentially explosive atmospheres.

The Embedded PC must be installed in a housing, which ensures protection class IP54 for gas according to EN 60079-15. A housing with protection class IP54 is required for non-conductive dust. IP6X is required for conductive dust according to EN 60079-31.

Observe the temperature at the cable entry points into the housing. If the temperature during nominal operation is higher than 70 °C at the entry points or higher than 80 °C at the wire branching points, cables must be selected that are designed for these high temperatures and operation in potentially explosive atmospheres.

Maintain the prescribed ambient temperature during operation. The permissible ambient temperature lies within the range from 0 °C ... +60 °C.

Take measures to prevent the rated operating voltage exceeding 119 V through short-term interference voltages.

Switch off the power supply and ensure that no explosive atmosphere occurs when:

• Bus Terminals are connected or removed,

• the Embedded PC is wired or cables are connected,

• the front flap is opened,

• the CFast card, MicroSD card or battery is replaced.

6.1.5 Installing passive EtherCAT Terminals

Note

Incorrectly installed passive EtherCAT Terminals

The E-bus signal between an Embedded PC and the EtherCAT Terminals can be impaired due to incorrectly installed passive EtherCAT Terminals.

Passive EtherCAT Terminals should not be installed directly on the power supply unit.

EtherCAT Terminals that do not take part in active data exchange are referred to as passive terminals. Passive EtherCAT Terminals have no process image and do not require current from the terminal bus (Ebus).

Passive EtherCAT Terminals (e.g. EL9195) can be detected in TwinCAT. In the tree structure the EtherCAT Terminal is displayed without process image, and the value in column “E-bus (mA)” does not change, compared to the preceding EtherCAT Terminal.

Fig.24: Identifying a passive EtherCAT Terminal in TwinCAT.

The entry "Current consumption via E-Bus" in the technical data of an EtherCAT Terminal indicates whether a particular EtherCAT Terminal requires power from the terminal bus (E-bus).

The following diagram shows the permissible installation of a passive EtherCAT Terminal. The passive EtherCAT Terminal was not directly attached to the power supply unit.

6.2 Connecting the power supply

Note

Damage to the Embedded PCs

The Embedded PCs may be damaged during wiring. The cables for the power supply should only be connected in de-energized state.

The power supply terminals require an external voltage source, which provides 24 V DC (-15% / +20%). The power supply terminal must provide 4 A at 24 V, in order to ensure the operation of the Embedded PCs in all situations.

A 4 A fuse should be used for the power supply of the Embedded PC.

The cabling of the Embedded PC in the control cabinet must be done in accordance with the standard EN 60204-1:2006 PELV = Protective Extra Low Voltage:

• The "PE" and "0V" conductors of the voltage source for a basic CPU module must be on the same potential (connected in the control cabinet).

• Standard EN 60204-1:2006, section 6.4.1:b stipulates that one side of the circuit, or a point of the energy source for this circuit must be connected to the protective earth conductor system.

Connection example

Table24: Legend for the connection example

No. Description

1 The upper spring-loaded terminals identified with “24 V“ and “0 V“ supply the Embedded

PC and the Terminal Bus (data transfer via K- or E-bus).

2 The spring-loaded terminals identified as "+", "-" and "PE" supply the Bus Terminals via

the power contacts and the sensors or actuators connected to the Bus Terminals.

Commissioning

CX51x038 Version: 1.9

Compliance with UL requirements:

• The Embedded PCs must not be connected to unlimited voltage sources.

• Embedded PCs may only be supplied from a 24V DC voltage source. The voltage source must be insulated and protected with a fuse of maximum 4 A (corresponding to UL248).

• Or the power supply must originate from a voltage source that corresponds to NEC class 2. An NEC class 2 voltage source must not be connected in series or parallel with another NEC class 2 voltage source.

Opening and closing spring-loaded terminals:

The cables of an external voltage source are connected to the power supply unit with spring-loaded terminals. Connect the cables as follows:

Table25: Required wire cross-sections and strip lengths

Wire cross section 0.5 ... 2.5 mm

AWG 20 .. AWG 14

Strip length 8 ... 9 mm 0.33 inch

1. Open a spring-loaded terminal by slightly pushing with a screwdriver or a rod into the square opening above the terminal.

2. The wire can now be inserted into the round terminal opening without any force.

3. The terminal closes automatically when the pressure is released, holding the wire safely and permanently.

Power supply unit LEDs

The voltage sources have been connected to the power supply unit successfully when the two upper power supply terminal LEDs light up in green.

• The left LED (Us) indicates the supply of the basic CPU module and terminal bus.

• The red LED (Up) indicates the Bus Terminal supply via the power contacts.

Note

Interrupting / switching off the power supply

To switch off the Embedded PC, do not disconnect the ground (0 V), because otherwise current may continue to flow via the shielding, depending on the device, and damage the Embedded PC or peripheral devices. Always disconnect the 24 V line. Devices connected to the Embedded PC, which have their own power supply (e.g. a Panel) must have the same potential for "PE" and "0 V" as the Embedded PC have (no potential difference).

The Ethernet interfaces (X000, X001) support jumbo frames only if the original Intel® driver is installed.

Requirements:

• The original Intel® driver can be downloaded from https://downloadcenter.intel.com.

• Install the original Intel® driver. Note that this will delete the real-time capable driver from Beckhoff.

• Check whether the peripheral devices support jumbo frames.

Jumbo frames are activated as follows:

1. Under Start > Control Panel > Hardware and Sound click on Device Manager.

2. Double-click on the interface and then on the Advanced tab.

3. Under Settings click on Jumbo Packet, under Value select the option 4088 bytes or 9014 bytes.

ð You have successfully activated jumbo frames, and you can now transfer larger data quantities.

7.5.5 Configuring EtherCAT cable redundancy.

The Embedded PC has two independent Ethernet interfaces, which can be used for EtherCAT cable redundancy. Cable redundancy offers resilience for the cabling. Interruptions of the EtherCAT communication due to broken wires or unplugged LAN cables are avoided.

Fig.32: Smallest possible configuration for EtherCAT cable redundancy.

Interference at the individual terminals is not intercepted by the cable redundancy.

Table28: Cable redundancy, hardware for sample configuration.

Type Description

CX51x0 Embedded PC Is the EtherCAT master in the example.

Bus Coupler EK1110 EtherCAT extension can be used to extend an EtherCAT

segment by up to 100 m.

EK1100 Bus Coupler The Bus Coupler relays the EtherCAT signal to connected

EtherCAT Terminals.

EtherCAT Terminals Any number of EtherCAT Terminals can be connected to

the CX51x0 Embedded PC and the Bus Coupler.

Requirements:

• For TwinCAT 2 you have to install and license the supplement TS622x | TwinCAT EtherCAT Redundancy on the Embedded PC:

http://www.beckhoff.de/forms/twincat3/warenkorb.aspx?lg=de&title=TS622x-EtherCATRedundancy&version=1.0.2

• In TwinCAT 3 the supplement is already included and only has to be licensed.

• Hardware wired as EtherCAT ring (see Fig.: Smallest possible configuration for EtherCAT cable redundancy) and added in TwinCAT.

1. In the tree view click on the EtherCAT master.

2. Click on the EtherCAT tab, then Advanced Settings.

3. Click on Redundancy in the tree structure on the left.

4. Click on the option Second adapter, followed by the Search button.

Configuration

CX51x0 61Version: 1.9

5. Select the appropriate LAN connection according to your cabling at the Embedded PC.

6. Confirm the settings with OK.

ð You have successfully configured cable redundancy. Under the Online tab the EtherCAT slaves are

displayed, for which cable redundancy was configured.

Under State the state of the individual EtherCAT slaves is displayed. If, for example, the cable connection between the EK1100 and EK1110 Bus Couplers is interrupted, the status of the Bus Coupler changes. The message "LINK_MIS B" and "LINK_MIS A" appears under status.

Although the connection between the Bus Couplers is interrupted, the EtherCAT Terminals connected to the EK1100 Bus Coupler show no fault.

If the cable connection is interrupted without cable redundancy at the same location, the terminals show a fault under status.

7.5.6 Using a hardware watchdog

The function block FB_PcWatchdog_BAPI activates a hardware watchdog on the Embedded PC. The watchdog can be used to automatically restart systems that have entered an infinite loop or where the PLC has stopped.

The watchdog is activated with bExecute = TRUE and nWatchdogTimeS >= 1s.

Once the watchdog has been activated, the function block must be called cyclically and at shorter intervals than nWatchdogTimeS, because the Embedded PC automatically restarts if the set time is less than nWatchdogTimeS.

Configuration

CX51x062 Version: 1.9

Attention

Unwanted restart

The watchdog restarts the Embedded PC as soon as the time set for nWatchdogTimeS elapses.

Be aware of this behavior and disable the watchdog if you use breakpoints, carry out a PLC reset or an overall reset, stop TwinCAT, switch to config mode or activate the configuration.

Requirements:

• Tc2_System library.

• TwinCAT v3.1.0

• A previously created PLC project in TwinCAT.

Locating the function block in TwinCAT:

1. Double-click on Tc2_System in the tree view under PLC > PLC project > References. The Library Manager appears.

2. Under Tc2_System > POUs > SYSTEM +TIME click on the function block FB_PcWatchdog_BAPI.

ð The description of the function block can then be found under the Documentation tab or in the library

description under: FB_PcWatchDog_BAPI. If necessary, you can install the Tc2_System library at a later stage via the Add Library button in the Library Manager.

1-second UPS (persistent data)

CX51x0 63Version: 1.9

8 1-second UPS (persistent data)

Note

Loss of data

The use of the 1-second UPS outside of the documented possibilities can lead to loss or corruption of data. Use only TwinCAT to control the 1-second UPS and save only persistent data with a maximum size of 1 MB.

The 1-second UPS is an UltraCap capacitor that continues to supply the processor with power in the event of a power failure.

During this period persistent data can be saved, which are available on switching on again.

Since the 1-second UPS is designed for the entire service life, the holding time is considerably longer with new devices. The capacitors age over the course of time and the holding time decreases. Therefore a maximum of 1MB persistent data can be reliably saved over the entire service life.

Do not save any other data and do not use any other applications to control the 1-second UPS.

Please note that the 1-second UPS does not supply power to the K-bus or the E-bus and that their data may already be invalid when the 1-second UPS is activated. Also, the fieldbus system (or Ethernet) may not work or not work properly once the 1-second UPS was activated.

Storage location and names of the files:

The persistent data are saved by default in the TwinCAT boot directory:

Development environment File path File name

TwinCAT 2 C:\TwinCAT\Boot\ TCPLC_T_x.wbp

TCPLC_T_x.wb~ (Backup)

The x in the file name stands for the number of the runtime system.

TwinCAT 3 C:\TwinCAT\3.1\Boot\ Port_85x.bootdata

Port_85x.bootdata-old (Backup)

The x in the file name stands for the number of the runtime system.

Configure the 1-second UPS as follows in order to save persistent data:

• In the case of the CX51x0, check whether the 1-second UPS is activated or deactivated in the BIOS

(see: BIOS settings [}64]). Configure the Windows write filter and issue the corresponding write permissions in order to be able to save persistent data (see: Windows write filter).

• Declare important data such as counter values in the PLC as VAR PERSISTENT. Then call the function block FB_S_UPS_CX51x0 cyclically in TwinCAT in order to control the 1-second UPS (see:

FB_S_UPS_CX51x0 [}67]).

• Select the mode in the function block in order to specify what should happen in the case of a voltage failure. Specify, for example, whether persistent data are saved and a quick shutdown is executed

(see: Mode and status of the function block [}69]).

• Subsequently you can check the validity of the variables and monitor whether the persistent variables are loaded without error (see: Checking the validity of the variables [}70]).

Integration into a PLC

TwinCAT offers special function blocks for integrating the S-UPS into a PLC program. These are described below. From TwinCAT 2.11R3 Build 2247 or TwinCAT 3.1 Build 4018 the required library is integrated in the installation. For older versions the library: https://infosys.beckhoff.com/content/1033/CX51x0_HW/Resources/rar/1941420683.rar has to be copied into the TwinCAT library directory.

1-second UPS (persistent data)

CX51x066 Version: 1.9

8.2 Windows write filter

Since the persistent data are stored on a storage medium, the file and the path must be writeable. If you use the Windows write filter, the Windows partition is protected against write access operations, and the persistent data are not saved.

• Switch off the EWF, if you want to save persistent data.

• The FBWF and UWF do not have to be switched off, because an exception can be defined for the directory \Boot.

For Windows CE and Windows Embedded Compact 7 no Windows write filters are used.

FBWF exception list

By default an exception list is automatically created when the FBWF is switched on. The \Boot directory is already entered in this list. Check the configuration of the FBWF if you have made changes to the exception list.

Fig.33: FBWF exception list, under TwinCAT 2 (left) and TwinCAT 3.

The persistent data are saved by default under \TwinCAT\Boot in TwinCAT 2 and under \TwinCAT\3.1\Boot in TwinCAT 3.

The FBWF can be configured via the Beckhoff FBWF manager.

UWF exception list

By default an exception list is automatically created when the UWF is switched on. The \Boot directory is already entered in this list. Check the configuration of the UWF if you have made changes to the exception list.

Fig.34: UWF exception list under TwinCAT 3

By default, the persistent data are stored under \TwinCAT\3.1\Boot in TwinCAT 3.

The UWF can be configured via the Beckhoff Unified Write Filter Manager.

1-second UPS (persistent data)

CX51x0 67Version: 1.9

8.3 FB_S_UPS_CX51x0

Note

Loss of data

The 1-second UPS switches the mainboard off as soon as the capacitors have discharged. If other applications or the PLC are keeping other data open or are writing to them, data may be corrupted or lost.

In the case of the CX51x0 the function block FB_S_UPS_CX51x0 is used to control the 1-second UPS from the PLC. If possible, use the standard values of the FB_S_UPS_CX51x0 and call the function block cyclically in the PLC.

The function block has various modes that control the behavior of the Embedded PC when the 1-second UPS is triggered:

Table29: Block modes.

Mode Function

eSUPS_WrPersistData_Shutdown Writing of the persistent data, followed by

quick shutdown.

eSUPS_WrPersistData_NoShutdown Only writing of the persistent data (no

quick shutdown)

eSUPS_ImmediateShutdown Quick shutdown only (no writing of

persistent data)

eSUPS_CheckPowerStatus Monitoring only (neither writing of the

persistent data nor quick shutdown); data handling is entirely up to the user.

Regardless of the mode and therefore irrespective of whether data were saved or quick shutdown was performed, the 1-second UPS switches off the mainboard after discharging of the capacitors, even if the voltage has returned in the meantime.

No quick shutdown may be executed with Windows CE/WEC7, as otherwise Windows CE/WEC7 will restart immediately after the persistent data have been saved. This can lead to problems with the persistent data. Select exclusively the mode eSUPS_WrPersistData_NoShutdown with Windows CE/WEC7 in order to save persistent data without error.

8.5 Checking the validity of the variables

For TwinCAT 2 the implicit structure Systeminfotype.bootDataFlags can be read in order to determine the validity of the persistent data (see: SYSTEMINFOTYPE [}70]).

For TwinCAT 3 the implicit variables PlcAppSystemInfo.BootDataLoaded and PlcAppSystemInfo.OldBootData are available for determining the validity of the persistent data (see:

PlcAppSystemInfo [}72]).

8.5.1 SYSTEMINFOTYPE

TYPE SYSTEMINFOTYPE STRUCT runTimeNo :BYTE; projectName :STRING(32); numberOfTasks :BYTE; onlineChangeCount :UINT; bootDataFlags :BYTE; systemStateFlags :WORD; END_STRUCT END_TYPE

runTimeNo: specifies the number of the runtime system (1..4).

projectName: project name as STRING.

numberOfTasks: number of tasks contained in the runtime system (max. 4).

onlineChangeCount: number of online changes since the last complete download.

bootDataFlags: State of the boot data (RETAIN and PERSISTENT) after loading. The upper four bits

indicate the state of the persistent data, while the lower four bits indicate the state of the retain data.

Bit number Description

0 RETAIN variables: LOADED (without error)

1 RETAIN variables: INVALID (the back-up copy was loaded, since no valid data was present)

2 RETAIN variables: REQUESTED (RETAIN variables should be loaded, a setting in TwinCAT

System Control)

3 reserved

4 PERSISTENT variables: LOADED (without error)

5 PERSISTENT variables: INVALID (the back-up copy was loaded, since no valid data was

present)

6 reserved

7 reserved

systemStateFlags : Reserved.

When shutting TwinCAT down the PERSISTENT and RETAIN data is written into two files on the hard disk. The path can be specified in TwinCAT System Control by means of the TwinCAT system properties (PLC tab). The standard setting is "<Drive>:\TwinCAT\Boot". The files all have a fixed name with fixed extensions:

File name Description

TCPLC_P_x.wbp Boot project (x = number of the run-time system)

TCPLC_S_x.wbp Packed source code (x = number of the runtime system)

TCPLC_R_x.wbp RETAIN variables (x = number of the runtime system)

TCPLC_T_x.wbp PERSISTENT variables (x = number of the runtime system)

TCPLC_R_x.wb~ Backup copy of the RETAIN variables (x = number of the runtime system)

TCPLC_T_x.wb~ Backup copy of the PERSISTENT variables (x = number of the runtime system)

1-second UPS (persistent data)

CX51x0 71Version: 1.9

If the persistent or retain variables are not loaded, e.g. because they are invalid, the backup file is loaded by default. In that case bit 1 of the bootDataFlags (for the RETAIN variables) in the PLC and/or bit 5 (for the PERSISTENT variables) is set.

A registry setting can be used to determine whether the backup file is deleted or used. The backup file is used by default (setting 0). If the backup file is to be deleted, the value of "ClearInvalidRetainData" or "ClearInvalidPersistentData" must be set to 1 in the registry under:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Beckhoff\TwinCAT\Plc] "ClearInvalidRetainData"=dword:00000000 "ClearInvalidPersistentData"=dword:00000000

the value of "ClearInvalidRetainData" or of "ClearInvalidPersistentData" must be set to 1.

Whether the backup file is to be used can also be set in the TwinCAT System Manager in the tree structure on the left under PLC > PLC Settings:

The backup files are deleted if the option Clear Invalid Retain Data or Clear Invalid Persistent Data is set in the System Manager. Corresponds to registry entry 1.

9.2 Power supply terminal LEDs in K-bus mode

The power supply unit checks the connected Bus Terminals for errors. The red LED "K-bus ERR" is off if no error is present. The red LED "K-bus ERR" flashes if Bus Terminal errors are present.

Display LED Meaning

Us 24 V Power supply for basic CPU module. The LED

lights green if the power supply is correct.

Up 24V Power supply for terminal bus. The LED lights

green if the power supply is correct.

K-BUS RUN Diagnostic K-bus. The green LED lights up in order

to indicate fault-free operation. "Error-free" means that the communication with the fieldbus system is also running.

K-BUS ERR Diagnostic K-bus. The red LED flashes to indicate

an error. The red LED blinks with two different frequencies.

The frequency and number of the flashes can be used to determine the error code and the error argument. An error is indicated by the "K-bus ERR" LED in a particular order.

Table30: K-bus ERR LED, fault indication sequence through the LED.

Order Meaning

Fast blinking Starting the sequence

First slow sequence Error code

No display Pause, the LED is off

Second slow sequence Error code argument

Count how often the red LED K-bus ERR flashes, in order to determine the error code and the error argument. In the error argument the number of pulses shows the position of the last Bus Terminal before the error. Passive Bus Terminals, such as a power feed terminal, are not included in the count.

EMC problems. • Check power supply for undervoltage

or overvoltage peaks.

• Implement EMC measures.

• If a K-bus error is present, it can be localized by a restart of the power supply (by switching it off and then on again)

3 pulses 0 K-bus command error. • No Bus Terminal inserted.

• One of the Bus Terminals is defective; halve the number of Bus Terminals attached and check whether the error is still present with the remaining Bus Terminals. Repeat this procedure until the faulty Bus Terminal has been found.

4 pulses 0 K-bus data error, break

behind the power supply unit.

Replace Bus Terminal at location n.

6 pulses 0 Error at initialization. Replace Embedded PC.

1 Internal data error. Hardware reset of the Embedded PC

(switch off and back on again).

8 Internal data error. Hardware reset of the Embedded PC

(switch off and back on again).

7 pulses 0 Process data lengths of

the set and actual configurations do not correspond.

Check the configuration and the Bus Terminals for consistency.

For some error the LED "K-BUS ERR" does not go out, even if the error was rectified. Switch the power supply for the power supply unit off and back on again to switch off the LED after the error has been rectified.

State variable

In TwinCAT there is a State variable under the Bus Coupler for K-bus diagnostics.

Error handling and diagnostics

CX51x076 Version: 1.9

Fig.35: Status variable for error handling and diagnostics under TwinCAT.

If the value is "0", the K-bus operates synchronous and without error. If the value is <> "0" there may be a fault, or it may only be an indication that the K-bus cycle is longer than the task. In which case it would no longer be synchronous with the task. The task time should be faster than 100 ms. We recommend a task time of less than 50 ms. The K-bus update time typically lies between one and five ms.

Table32: Description of the State variable values.

Bit Description

Bit 0 K-bus error.

Bit 1 Terminal configuration has changed since the start.

Bit 2 Process image lengths do not match.

Bit 8 (still) no valid inputs.

Bit 9 K-bus input update not yet complete.

Bit 10 K-bus output update not yet complete.
