1.7 Marking of EtherCAT plug-in modules

Designation
A Beckhoff EtherCAT device has a 14-digit technical designation, made up as follows (e.g. EJ1008-0000-0017)
• Order identifier
◦ family key: EJ
◦ product designation: The first digit of product designation is used for assignment to a product
group (e.g. EJ2xxx = digital output module).
◦ Version number: The four digit version number identifies different product variants.
• Revision number: It is incremented when changes are made to the product.
The Order identifier and the revision number are printed on the side of EtherCAT plug-in modules (s. following illustration (A and B).

Notes
• The elements mentioned above result in the technical designation. EJ1008-0000-0017 is used in the example below.
• EJ1008-0000 is the order identifier, in the case of “-0000” usually abbreviated to EJ1008.
• The revision -0017 shows the technical progress, such as the extension of features with regard to the EtherCAT communication, and is managed by Beckhoff. In principle, a device with a higher revision can replace a device with a lower revision, unless specified otherwise, e.g. in the documentation. Associated and synonymous with each revision there is usually a description (ESI, EtherCAT Slave
Information) in the form of an XML file, which is available for download from the Beckhoff web site.
• The product designation, version and revision are read as decimal numbers, even if they are technically saved in hexadecimal.

Serial number
The serial number for EtherCAT plug-in modules is usually the 8-digit number printed on the side of the module (see following illustration C). The serial number indicates the configuration in delivery state and therefore refers to a whole production batch, without distinguishing the individual modules of a batch.

1.7.1 Beckhoff Identification Code (BIC)

The Beckhoff Identification Code (BIC) is increasingly being applied to Beckhoff products to uniquely identify the product. The BIC is represented as a Data Matrix Code (DMC, code scheme ECC200), the content is based on the ANSI standard MH10.8.2-2016.
Fig.3: BIC as data matrix code (DMC, code scheme ECC200)
The BIC will be introduced step by step across all product groups.
Depending on the product, it can be found in the following places:
• on the packaging unit
• directly on the product (if space suffices)
• on the packaging unit and the product
The BIC is machine-readable and contains information that can also be used by the customer for handling and product management.
Each piece of information can be uniquely identified using the so-called data identifier (ANSI MH10.8.2-2016). The data identifier is followed by a character string. Both together have a maximum length according to the table below. If the information is shorter, it shall be replaced by spaces. The data under positions 1-4 are always available.
The following information is contained:

An important component of the BIC is the Beckhoff Traceability Number (BTN, item no. 2). The BTN is a unique serial number consisting of eight characters that will replace all other serial number systems at Beckhoff in the long term (e.g. batch designations on IO components, previous serial number range for safety products, etc.). The BTN will also be introduced step by step, so it may happen that the BTN is not yet coded in the BIC
Notice
This information has been carefully prepared. However, the procedure described is constantly being further developed. We reserve the right to revise and change procedures and documentation at any time and without prior notice. No claims for changes can be made from the information, illustrations and descriptions in this information.

System overview

2 System overview

Electronically, the EJxxxx EtherCAT plug-in modules are based on the EtherCAT I/O system. The EJ system consists of the signal distribution board and EtherCAT plug-in modules. It is also possible to connect an IPC to the EJ system. The EJ system is suitable for mass production applications, applications with small footprint and applications requiring a low total weight. The machine complexity can be extended by means of the following:
• reserve slots,
• the use of placeholder modules,
• linking of EtherCAT Terminals and EtherCAT Boxes via an EtherCAT connection.
The following diagram illustrates an EJ system. The components shown are schematic, to illustrate the functionality.
Fig.5: EJ system sample
Signal distribution board
The signal distribution board distributes the signals and the power supply to individual application-specific plug connectors, in order to connect the controller to further machine modules. Using pre-assembled cable harnesses avoids the need for time-consuming connection of individual wires. Coded components reduce the unit costs and the risk of miswiring. Beckhoff offers development of signal distribution boards as an engineering service. Customers have the option to develop their own signal distribution board, based on the design guide.
EtherCAT plug-in modules
Similar to the EtherCAT terminal system, a module strand consists of a Bus Coupler and I/O modules. Almost all of the EtherCAT Terminals can also be manufactured in the EJ design as EtherCAT plug-in modules. The EJ modules are directly attached to the signal distribution board. The communication, signal distribution and supply take place via the contact pins at the rear of the modules and the PCB tracks of the signal distribution board. The coding pins at the rear serve as mechanical protection against incorrect connection. Color coding on the housing facilitates distinguishing of the modules.

3.1 EJ2502 - Introduction

Product overview
Fig.6: EJ2502
2-channel pulse width output module 24 V
The EJ2502 output terminal modulates the pulse width of a binary signal and outputs it electrically isolated from the E-bus. The mark/space ratio is preset by a 16-bit value from the automation device. The output stage is protected against overload and short-circuit. The EtherCAT plug-in module has two channels that indicate their signal state via light emitting diodes. The LEDs are driven in time with the outputs, and show the duty factor by their brightness.

4 Installation of EJ modules

4.1 Power supply for the EtherCAT plug-in modules

WARNING
Power supply
A SELV/PELV power supply must be used to supply power for the EJ coupler and modules. Couplers and modules have to be connected to SELV/PELV circuits exclusively.
The signal distribution board should have a power supply designed for the maximum possible current load of the module string. Information on the current required from the E-bus supply can be found for each module in the respective documentation in section “Technical data”, online and in the catalog. The power requirement of the module string is displayed in the TwinCAT System Manager.
E-bus power supply with EJ1100 or EJ1101-0022 and EJ940x
The EJ1100 Bus Coupler supplies the connected EJ modules with the E-bus system voltage of 3.3V. The Coupler can accommodate a load up to 2.2A. If a higher current is required, a combination of the coupler EJ1101-0022 and the power supply units EJ9400 (2.5A) or EJ9404 (12A) should be used. The EJ940x power supply units can be used as additional supply modules in the module string.
Depending on the application, the following combinations for the E-bus supply are available:
Fig.9: E-bus power supply with EJ1100 or EJ1101-0022 + EJ940x
In the EJ1101-0022 coupler, the RJ45 connectors and optional ID switches are external and can be positioned anywhere on the signal distribution board, as required. This facilitates feeding through a housing.
The EJ940x power supply plug-in modules provide an optional reset function (see chapter Connection of the documentation for EJ9400 and EJ9404)
EJ2502 19Version: 1.5
Installation of EJ modules
E-bus power supply with CXxxxx and EK1110-004x
The Embedded PC supplies the attached EtherCAT terminals and the EtherCAT EJ coupler
• with a supply voltage of 24VDC (-15 %/+20%). This voltage supplies the E-bus and the bus terminal electronics. The CXxxxx units supply the E-bus with up to 2,000mA E-bus current. If a higher current is required due to the attached terminals, power feed terminals or power supply plug-in modules must be used for the E-bus supply.
• with a peripheral voltage Up of 24VDC to supply the field electronics.
The EK1110-004x EtherCAT EJ couplers relay the following parameters to the signal distribution board via the rear connector:
• the E-bus signals,
• the E-bus voltage U
(3.3V) and
EBUS
• the peripheral voltage UP (24VDC).
