Description of functions
The analog output terminal KL4112 generates output signals within the
range from 0 – 20 mA. The output current is output by the terminal with up
to 16-bit resolution. The output current is electrically isolated from the terminal bus level.
In the default setting, process data is entered in twos complement (integer
-1 corresponds to 0xFFFF).
Process data item (Hex/decimal) Output value
The two RUN LEDs indicate the operating state of the affiliated terminal
channel.
RUN LED:
On – normal operation
Off – watchdog-timer overflow has occurred. The green LEDs go off if no
process data is transferred by the bus coupler for 100 ms. The output outputs a current that is configurable by the user (see feature register).

Terminal configuration
Beckhoff Lightbus
Coupler BK2000
The terminal can be configured and parametrized by way of the internal
register structure.
Each terminal channel is mapped in the bus coupler. The terminal’s data is
mapped differently in the bus coupler’s memory depending on the type of
the bus coupler and on the set mapping configuration (eg.Motorola / Intel
format, word alignment,...). For parametrization of a terminal, the control/status byte must also be mapped.
In the case of the Beckhoff-Lightbus coupler BK2000, the control /status
byte is always mapped besides the data bytes. It is always in the low byte
at the offset address of the terminal channel.

Register description
8 KL4112
The complex terminals can be adjusted to different operating modes or
functionalities. The " general description of register " describes the contents of the registers, which are identical for all complex terminals.
The terminal-specific registers are explained in the section following to it.
The access to the internal registers of the terminal is described in the sec-
tion " register communication ".
General register description
Complex terminals that possess a processor are capable of bidirectionally
ex-changing data with the higher-level control system. Below, these terminals are referred to as intelligent bus terminals. They include the analog
inputs (0-10V, -10-10V, 0-20mA, 4-20mA), the analog outputs (0-10V, -1010V, 0-20mA, 4-20mA), serial interface terminals (RS485, RS232, TTY,
data transfer terminals), counter terminals, encoder interfaces, SSI interfaces, PWM terminals and all other parametrizable terminals.
Internally, all intelligent terminals possess a data structure that is identical
in terms of it's essential characteristics. This data area is organized in
Register description
words and embraces 64 memory locations. The essential data and parameters of the terminal can be read and adjusted by way of the structure.
Function calls with corresponding parameters are also possible. Each logical channel of an intelligent terminal has such a structure (therefore, 4channel analog terminals have 4 register sets.
This structure is broken down into the following areas:
(You will find a list of all registers at the end of this documentation).

The process variables can be used in additional to the actual process
image and their functions are specific to the terminal.
R0 - R5: These registers have a function that depends on the terminal
type.
R6: Diagnostic register
The diagnostic register may contain additional diagnostic information. In
the case of serial interface terminals, for example, parity errors that have
occurred during data transfer are indicated.
R7: Command register
High-Byte_Write = function parameter
Low-Byte _Write = function number
High-Byte _Read = function result
Low-Byte_ Read = function number
Type registers R8 - R15 Registers in the terminal’s internal ROM der Klemme
The type and system parameters are programmed permanently by the
manufacturer and can only be read by the user but cannot be modified.
R8: Terminal type:
The terminal type in register R8 is needed to identify the terminal.
R9: Software version X.y
The software version can be read as an ASCII character string.
R10: Data length
R10 contains the number of multiplexed shift registers and their length in
bits.
The bus coupler sees this structure.
R11: Signal channels
In comparison with R10, the number of logically existing channels is located here. For example, one physically existing shift register may consist of
several signal channels.
R12: Minimum data length
The respective byte contains the minimum data length of a channel to be
transferred. If the MSB is set, then the control/status byte is not necessarily
needed for the function of the terminal and, with appropriate configuration
of the coupler, is not transferred to the control system.

The analog terminal is set to a byte limit in the terminal bus with the alignment bits.
Manufacturer parameters R16 - R30 is the area of the "Manufacturer parameters" (SEEROM)
The manufacturer parameters are specific to each terminal type. They are
programmed by the manufacturer but can also be modified from the control
system. The manufacturer parameters are stored permanently in a serial
EEPROM and are therefore not destroyed by power failures.
These registers can only be modified after setting a code word in R31.
User parameters
R31 - R47 "Application parameters" area (SEEROM)
The application parameters are specific to each terminal type. They can be
modified by the programmer. The application parameters are stored permanently in a serial EEPROM in the terminal and cannot be destroyed by
power failures. The user area is write protected over a Codeword.
R31: Code word-register in the RAM
The code word 0x1235 must be entered here to enable modification of
Note
parameters in the user area. Write-protection is set if a different value is
entered in this register. When write protection is inactive, the code word is
returned during reading of the register. The register contains the value zero
when write protection is active.
R32: Feature-register
This register defines the operating modes of the terminal. For example, a
user-specific scaling can be activated for the analog I/O’s.

Hardware offset adjustment of the terminal is realized via this register.
R18: Gain-Hardware *2^-16, 0xFFFF corresponds 1
Hardware gain adjustment of the terminal is realized via this register.
R19: Manufacturer offset B_h
This register contains the offset of the manufacturer’s straight-line equation
(1.1). The straight-line equation is activated via R32.
R20: Manufacturer scaling A_h
16 bit unsigned integer * 2^-8 [0x0100]
This register contains the scaling factor of the manufacturer’s straight-line
equation (1.1). The straight-line equation is activated via R32.
A 1 corresponds to the register value 0x0100
Application parameters R32: Feature Register:
[0x0006]
The feature register determines the operating modes of the terminal.
Note: For compatibility reasons the standard output format is 16-Bit signed
integer (default). The positive scope for 0 to 20mA extends therefore from
0 to 32767(0x7FFF). This corresponds to 15 bits. For using all 16 bits of
the bus terminal, the manufacturer scaling must be deactivated .

Control/Status byte
The control byte is transferred from the controller to the terminal. It can be
used in the register mode (REG = 1) or in process data transfer (REG = 0).
The gain and offset of the terminal can be adjusted with the control byte
(process data transfer).The code word must be entered in R31 to enable
adjustment of the terminal. The terminal’s gain and offset can then be adjusted.
The parameters are not permanently stored until the code word is reset!

Bit7 = 0
Bit6 = 1 Terminal adjustment function is active
Bit4 = 1 gain adjustment
Bit2 = 0 slow clock = 1000ms

Bit1 = 1 up Bit0 = 1 down
Bit3 = 1 offset adjustment
Bit2 = 0 slow clock = 1000ms
1 fast clock = 50ms
Bit1 = 1 up Bit0 = 1 down
The status byte is transferred from the terminal to the controller. In the
case of the KL4112, the status byte has no function in process data transfer.
Register communication KL4112
When bit 7 of the control byte is set, the first two bytes of the user data are
not used for process data transfer, but are written into or read out of the
terminal’s register.
In bit 6 of the control byte, you define whether a register is to be read or
written. When bit 6 is not set, a register is read without modification. The
value can be taken from the input process image.
When bit 6 is set, the user data is written into a register. The operation is
concluded as soon as the status byte in the input process image has supplied an acknowledgement (see examples).
The address of the register to be addressed is entered in bits 0 to 5 of the
control byte.

Annex
As already described in the chapter terminal configuration, each bus terminal is mapped in the bus coupler. In the standard case, this mapping is
done with the default setting in the bus coupler / bus terminal. This default
setting can be modified with the Beckhoff KS2000 configuration software or
using master configuration software (e.g. ComProfibus or TwinCAT System
Manager). The following tables provide information on how the KL4112
maps itself in the bus coupler depending on the set parameters.
Mapping in the bus coupler
The KL4112 is mapped in the bus coupler depending on the set parameters. If the terminal is evaluated completely, the terminal occupies memory
