2.1 EtherCAT Box - Introduction

The EtherCAT system has been extended with EtherCAT Box modules with protection class IP67. Through the integrated EtherCAT interface the modules can be connected directly to an EtherCAT network without an additional Coupler Box. The high-performance of EtherCAT is thus maintained into each module.
The extremely low dimensions of only 126x30x26.5 mm (hxw xd) are identical to those of the Fieldbus Box extension modules. They are thus particularly suitable for use where space is at a premium. The small mass of the EtherCAT modules facilitates applications with mobile I/O interface (e.g. on a robot arm). The EtherCAT connection is established via screened M8connectors.
Fig.1: EtherCAT Box Modules within an EtherCAT network
The robust design of the EtherCAT Box modules enables them to be used directly at the machine. Control cabinets and terminal boxes are now no longer required. The modules are fully sealed and therefore ideally prepared for wet, dirty or dusty conditions.
Pre-assembled cables significantly simplify EtherCAT and signal wiring. Very few wiring errors are made, so that commissioning is optimized. In addition to pre-assembled EtherCAT, power and sensor cables, field­configurable connectors and cables are available for maximum flexibility. Depending on the application, the sensors and actuators are connected through M8 or M12connectors.
The EtherCAT modules cover the typical range of requirements for I/O signals with protection class IP67:
• digital inputs with different filters (3.0ms or 10μs)
• digital outputs with 0.5 or 2A output current
• analog inputs and outputs with 16bit resolution
• Thermocouple and RTD inputs
• Stepper motor modules
XFC (eXtreme Fast Control Technology) modules, including inputs with time stamp, are also available.

2.2 EP1518 - Introduction

Fig.4: EP1518-0001 and EP1518-0002
8 digital inputs (24VDC), 2 counters
The EP1518-0002 EtherCAT Box with digital inputs acquires binary control signals from the process level and transfers them, with electrical isolation, to the controller. The signal state is indicated by means of light emitting diodes. Connection is via M12 connectors. The input filters can be set between 0and 100ms via EtherCAT. Inputs 0 and 4 can be used as up/down counters (32-bit). Inputs 1 and 5 operate as GATES and inputs 2 and 6 control Up/Down. The EP1518 has three modes of operation that can be selected via the PDOs using the Sync-Manager:
• 2 digital inputs and 2 counters (delivery state)
• 5 digital inputs and 1 counter
• 8 digital inputs
All inputs continue to be shown in the process image even in the counter operation modes. Signal acquisition takes place with the filter times set via CoE. Irrespective of that, the counter pulses are always counted with a filter of 150µs. Further parameters can be set via the CoE objects. The sensors are supplied via the control voltage US in two groups of four sensors each. Any short circuits on the sensor side are detected and reported to the controller. The load voltage Up is not used in the input module, but may optionally be connected in order to be relayed downstream.

3.1.2 Fixing

Note or pointer
While mounting the modules, protect all connectors, especially the IP-Link, against contamination! Only with connected cables or plugs the protection class IP67 is guaranteed! Unused connectors have to be protected with the right plugs! See for plug sets in the catalogue.
Modules with narrow housing are mounted with two M3 bolts. Modules with wide housing are mounted with two M3 bolts to the fixing holes located at the corners or mounted with two M4 bolts to the fixing holes located centrally.
The bolts must be longer than 15 mm. The fixing holes of the modules are not threaded.
When assembling, remember that the fieldbus connectors increases the overall height. See chapter accessories.
Mounting Rail ZS5300-0001
The mounting rail ZS5300-0001 (500 mm x 129 mm) allows the time saving assembly of modules.
The rail is made of stainless steel, 1.5 mm thick, with already pre-made M3 threads for the modules. The rail has got 5.3 mm slots to mount it via M5 screws to the machine.
Fig.6: Mounting Rail ZS5300-000
The mounting rail is 500 mm long, that way 15 narrow modules can be mounted with a distance of 2 mm between two modules. The rail can be cut to length for the application.
Mounting Rail ZS5300-0011
The mounting rail ZS5300-0011 (500 mm x 129 mm) has in addition to the M3 treads also pre-made M4 treads to fix 60 mm wide modules via their middle holes.
Up to 14 narrow or 7 wide modules may be mixed mounted.

3.2.3 Power Connection

The feeding and forwarding of supply voltages is done via two M8 connectors at the bottom end of the modules:
• IN: left M8 connector for feeding the supply voltages
• OUT: right M8 connector for forwarding the supply voltages

The pins M8 connectors carry a maximum current of 4A.
Two LEDs display the status of the supply voltages.
NOTE
Don't confuse the power connectors with the EtherCAT connectors!
Never connect the power cables (M8, 24VDC) with the green marked EtherCAT sockets of the EtherCAT Box Modules! This can damage the modules!
Control voltage Us: 24V
Power is supplied to the fieldbus, the processor logic, the inputs and the sensors from the 24VDC control voltage Us. The control voltage is electrically isolated from the fieldbus circuitry.
DC
Auxiliary voltage Up 24V
DC
The Auxiliary voltage Up supplies the digital outputs; it can be brought in separately. If the load voltage is switched off, the fieldbus functions and the power supply and functionality of the inputs are retained.
Page 22
Installation
Redirection of the supply voltages
The IN and OUT power connections are bridged in the module (not IP204x-Bxxx and IE204x). The supply voltages Us and Up can thus easily be transferred from EtherCATBox to EtherCATBox.
NOTE
Pay attention to the maximum permissible current!
Pay attention also for the redirection of the supply voltages Us and Up, the maximum permissible current for M8 connectors of 4A must not be exceeded!

Installation
Supply via EP92x4-0023 PowerBox modules
If the machine requires higher current or if the EtherCAT Box Modules are installed far away from the control cabinet with included power supply, the usage of four cannel power distribution modules EP9214 or EP9224
(with integrated data logging, see www.beckhoff.com/EP9224) is recommended.
With these modules intelligent power distribution concepts with up to 2x16A and a maximum of 2.5mm² cable cross-section can be realized.

Electrical isolation
Digital modules
In the digital input/output modules, the grounds of the control voltage (GNDs) and the auxiliary voltage (GNDp) are connected to each other!
Check this at the documentation of each used EtherCAT Box.
Analog modules
In the analog input/output modules the grounds of the control voltage (GNDs) and the auxiliary voltage (GNDp) are separated from each other in order to ensure electrical isolation of the analog signals from the control voltage.
In some of the analog modules the sensors or actuators are supplied by Up - this means, for instance, that in the case of 0...10 V inputs, any reference voltage (0...30 V) may be connected to Up; this is then available to the sensors (e.g. smoothed 10 V for measuring potentiometers).
Details of the power supply may be taken from the specific module descriptions.

4.1.3 Distributed Clocks (DC)

EtherCAT System Documentation
A basic introduction to the topic of EtherCAT and Distributed Clocks is available in the Download area on the Beckhoff homepage:EtherCAT System Documentation.
The EtherCAT Box supports Distributed Clocks functionality. In order for the Box to be able to make the current counter value available in the designated process data in time before the arrival of the querying EtherCAT datagram, a suitable signal must be generated cyclically within the terminal. This signal can be triggered in the Box through 2 events: the SyncManager (SM) and the distributed clock (DC). Under operation mode selection the following options are available (see Fig. "DC" (Disributed Clocks) tab)
SM-synchron The SynManager event occurs when an EtherCAT frame successfully exchanges process data with the EP1518. Frame-triggered, the current counter value is thus cyclically determined, but with the low temporal jitter of the Ethernet frame.
DC-synchron In DC operation mode determination of the counter value is triggered cyclically at constant intervals through the integrated DC unit, synchronous with the bus cycle as standard. More uniform polling offers higher-quality position data for a higher-level control algorithm, for example. In the EP1518 the SYNC0 signal acts as trigger.
Fig.41: DC tab (Distributed Clocks)
When DC-Synchron operation mode is activated TwinCAT selects settings that ensure reliable operation of the Box with current position data. This means that determination of the current counter value is triggered by the SYNC0 signal at highly constant intervals and in good time (i.e. with an adequate safety buffer) before retrieving EtherCAT datagram is started.
If necessary, the SYNC0 signal can be shifted along the time axis to the right/later or left/earlier in associated dialogs by specifying a user-defined shift time, see Fig. Advanced Distributed Clock (DC) settings.
• A right-shift (positive shift value) will delay the counter value query, which means the position value becomes more current from the PLC perspective. However, this increases the risk that the position determination may not be finished in time before the arrival of EtherCAT frame, so that no current position value is available in this cycle.
• A left-shift (negative shift value) means the counter value will be queried earlier, resulting in older position values, with an associated increase in the safety buffer before the arrival of the EtherCAT datagram. This setting may be useful in systems with high real-time jitter, if no Industrial PCs from Beckhoff are used for control purposes, for example.
EP1518-000244 Version: 2.1.0
Page 45
Commissioning and configuration
NOTE
Risk of device damage
The mentioned notes and information should be used advisedly. The EtherCAT master automatically allocates SYNC0 and SYNC1 settings that support reliable and timely process data acquisition. User intervention at this point may lead to undesired behavior. If these settings are changed in the System Manager, no plausibility checks are carried out on the software side. Correct function of the terminal with all conceivable setting options cannot be guaranteed.
Default setting
The cyclic reading of the inputs is triggered by the SYNC0 pulse (interrupt) of the DC in the EtherCAT Box. The EtherCAT master sets the Sync Unit Cycle time value to the PLC cycle time and therefore the EtherCAT cycle time as standard. See Fig. Advanced Distributed Clock (DC) settings: 4000µs = 4ms, as TwinCAT is in configuration mode.
DC settings
Fig.42: Advanced settings for Distributed Clocks (DC)
SYNC0
Sync Unit cycle: a multiple of the bus cycle time. The counter value is periodically determined at this interval (in µs).
User defined
Any number up to 232 ns, or about 4.3 seconds. Use of decimal points is allowed.
Page 46
Commissioning and configuration
Shift Time
The Shift Time can be used to shift the SYNC0 pulse for this EtherCAT Box relative to other Boxes/ Terminals and the global SYNC pulse in nanosecond steps. If the inputs of several Boxes are read simultaneously, the same value must be entered here.
Based on input reference
If this option is activated an additional Input Shift is added to the configurable terminal-specific SYNC0 shift (user defined). This value is calculated and made available by the EtherCAT master (SysMan/Device EtherCAT/Tab EtherCAT/Advanced Settings/Distributed Clocks/Input Shift Time). As a result, all the input terminals in the system (EL1xxx, EL3xxx, EP1xxx, EP3xxx) read their inputs as close as possible to the time of the EtherCAT frame that will fetch them, thereby supplying the most recent possible input data to the controller.
Enable SYNC0
Automatically activated in DC-synchron operation mode.

The second counter is always active internally
Internally the second counter is always active, so that when switching from one 32-bit counter to two 32-bit counters the previous incoming pulses were counted in the second counter and saved in the Counter Value.
Two up/down counters
This is the delivery mode of the EP1518.

4.2.3 Counter settings

Enabling the GATE and Up/Down inputs as standard inputs
By setting the CoE objects EnableInputgate and EnableinputUD, the inputs are no longer allocated to the counters, but are used as standard inputs.
Fig.53: Enabling the inputs
Setting the counter to a value specified by the process data
The counter (counter value) can be set to any desired value by the controller.
To do this, set the desired value in Setcountervalue. The value is then adopted by Counter value on a rising edge of the Set counter control bit.

Fig.54: Setting the counter
Automatic setting/resetting of the counter to a defined value
If a desired value is set in Counterreloadvalue and the Enable reload bit is activated, the counter is set to 0 or to the set value if the specified value is exceeded or fallen below (depending on the counting direction).

4.2.4 Restoring the delivery state

To restore the delivery state for backup objects in ELxxxx terminals / EPxxxx boxes, the CoE object Restore default parameters, SubIndex 001 can be selected in the TwinCAT System Manager (Config mode).
Fig.56: Selecting the Restore default parameters PDO
Double-click on SubIndex 001 to enter the Set Value dialog. Enter the value 1684107116 in field Dec or the value 0x64616F6C in field Hex and confirm with OK.
All backup objects are reset to the delivery state.
Fig.57: Entering a restore value in the Set Value dialog
Alternative restore value
In some older terminals / boxes the backup objects can be switched with an alternative restore value: Decimal value: 1819238756 Hexadecimal value: 0x6C6F6164
An incorrect entry for the restore value has no effect.

4.3.2 Object description and parameterization

Parameterization
The terminal is parameterized via the CoE - Online tab (double-click on the respective object) or via the Process Data tab (assignment of PDOs).
EtherCAT XML Device Description
The display matches that of the CoE objects from the EtherCAT XML Device Description. We rec­ommend downloading the latest XML file from the download area on the Beckhoff website (http:// www.beckhoff.de/german/default.htm?download/elconfg.htm) and installing it according to the in­stallation instructions.
Introduction
The CoE overview contains objects for different intended applications:
Objects required for parameterization [}60] during commissioning
• Objects intended for regular operation, e.g. through ADS access.
• Objects for indicating internal settings (may be fixed)
• Further profile-specific objects [}67] indicating inputs, outputs and status information
The following section first describes the objects required for normal operation, followed by a complete overview of missing objects.
