1.2. Real-Time Clock Battery
The CPE305 is shipped with a real time clock (RTC)
battery (IC690ACC001) installed, with a pull-tab on the
battery. The pull tab should be removed before
installing the CPE305.
There are no diagnostics or indicators to monitor RTC
battery status. The RTC battery has an estimated life
of 5 years and must be replaced every 5 years on a
regular maintenance schedule. If the RTC battery fails,
the CPU date and time is reset to 12:00 AM, 01-102000 at startup. The CPU operates normally with a
failed or missing RTC battery; only the initial CPU Timeof-day (TOD) clock information will be incorrect.
1.3. Ethernet Port
The embedded Ethernet interface supports communications with the Machine Edition
programming software using the proprietary SRTP protocol. The CPE305 CPU
provides two SRTP-server connections.
The embedded Ethernet interface has one RJ-45 Ethernet port that automatically
senses the data rate (10Mbps or 100Mbps), duplex status (half or full duplex), and
cabling arrangement (straight through or crossover) of the attached link.

Page 8
1.4. Serial Port
The CPE305 provides one RS-232 serial interface to external devices. This port can be
used for firmware upgrades. The port is electrically isolated. For serial port pin
assignments and details on serial communications, refer to the PACSystems RX3i and
RX7i CPU Reference Manual, GFK-2222.
The RS-232 port does not supply the 5VDC power offered by other RX3i and Series
90-30 CPUs. Cable IC693CBL316 must be used for RS-232 serial connections to the
CPE305.
1.5. Removable Data Storage Devices (RDSDs)
The CPE305 provides the ability to transfer applications to and from an RDSD (USB
compatible device, such as a memory stick, smart phone, digital camera or MP3
device). Once the data is copied to the RDSD, it can be written to other RX3i CPE305
CPUs with no programmer software needed. The RDSD interface requires a usersupplied flash memory device that complies with the USB 2.0 Specification.
The USB port must be enabled in the RX3i configuration in order to transfer data
between the CPU and the RDSD. The CPE305 is shipped with the RDSD (USB) port
enabled. Complete details of the use of RDSDs are found in the PACSystems RX3i and
RX7i CPU Reference Manual, GFK-2222.
1.6. Energy Pack
The CPE305 preserves user memory using an Energy Pack without the need to
periodically replace batteries. The IC695ACC400 Energy Pack powers the CPU long
enough for the CPU to write its user memory contents to the CPU’s non-volatile
storage during a system power loss. Installation of the Energy Pack is found below.

2. Hardware Installation
2.1. Initial Checks
Upon receiving your RX3i equipment, carefully inspect all shipping containers for
damage. If any part of the system is damaged, notify the carrier immediately. The
damaged shipping container should be saved as evidence for inspection by the
carrier.
As the consignee, it is your responsibility to register a claim with the carrier for
damage incurred during shipment. GE Intelligent Platforms will fully cooperate with
you, however, should such action be necessary.
After unpacking the RX3i equipment, record all serial numbers. Serial numbers are
required if you should need to contact Customer Care during the warranty period. All
shipping containers and all packing material should be saved should it be necessary
to transport or ship any part of the system.
Verify that all components of the system have been received and that they agree
with your order. If the system received does not agree with your order, contact
Customer Care.
2.2. Installation Location
This product is intended for use with the RX3i system. Its components are considered
open equipment (having live electrical parts that may be accessible to users) and
must be installed in an ultimate enclosure that is manufactured to provide safety. As
a minimum, the enclosure shall provide a degree of protection against solid objects
as small as 12mm (e.g. fingers). This equates to a NEMA/UL Type 1 enclosure or an
IEC60529 IP20 rating providing at least a pollution degree 2 environment. For details
about installing RX3i rack systems, refer to the PACSystems RX3i System Manual,
GFK-2314.
If you need technical help, contact Technical Support. For phone numbers and email
addresses, see the back cover of this Guide.

2.4. Module Installation
For initial startup and configuration of the CPE305, complete the following steps. For
full details on CPE305 operation, refer to the PACSystems RX3i and RX7i CPU
Reference Manual, GFK-2222.
1. Remove the pull-tab from the Real Time Clock (RTC) battery, located on the back of
the CPE305.
GFK-2934A August 2015 9
Page 13
2. Remove power from the RX3i rack and install the CPE305. The CPE305 may be
installed in any slot in the RX3i Main rack, except the highest-numbered slot or
slot 0.
3. Holding the module firmly, align the module with the correct slot and connector,
then swing the module down until the module’s connector engages the
backplane’s backplane connector. Visually inspect the module to be sure it is
properly seated.
4. Insert the two provided M3x5mm machine screws through the module’s bottom
bracket into threaded holes in the bottom of the backplate and screw them several
turns using a #1 Phillips screwdriver. Tighten to 0.7 N-m (6 in-lbs).
5. Mount the Energy Pack on the left
side of the module in slot 0 of the
rack (typically a power supply).
a. Engage the Energy Pack’s
mounting hooks (at the top) on the
frame of the leftmost module.
b. Rotate the bottom of the Energy
Pack into place, engaging the
bottom hooks. The latch will snap
into place.
c. Connect cable IC695CBL001 from
the connector on the bottom of the
Energy Pack to …
d. the corresponding connector on
the bottom of CPE305.
6. If required, connect the CPE305 to the
Ethernet network.
7. Apply power to the rack.

Page 14
Note: When the Energy Pack is powered up for the first time, or is in a system
that has been powered down long enough to completely discharge the
Energy Pack, it may require a few seconds for it to charge to its operating
level. The CPU’s STATUS LED will blink green during this time.
3. Module Initial Startup
You Will Need:
PACSystems RX3i CPU Firmware 8.00 or later.
Proficy* Machine Edition configuration and programming software, version
8.0 or later.
A IC693CBL316 serial or Ethernet cable for connecting the computer
running the Proficy Machine Edition programmer to the RX3i CPU.
Initial Configuration
1. Using Proficy Machine Edition (PME) software, configure the CPE305 in an RX3i
target.
Note: If you intend to use the module’s embedded Ethernet interface, you will
probably need to assign it a new IP address. To configure the embedded
Ethernet interface in Machine Edition, expand the CPU slot to display the
Ethernet daughterboard. The Settings tab for the embedded Ethernet
module contains IP Address, Subnet Mask and Gateway IP Address (see
the following diagram). Consult your network administrator for the proper
values for these parameters.
GFK-2934A August 2015 11

Configuration of the Ethernet Port on CPE305
2. Go online with the target and download the configuration. You can use one of the
following methods for the initial connection to the CPE305:
a. Using an IC693CBL316 cable, connect to the module’s RJ-25 RS-232 serial
port to the programmer computer. The computer must be equipped with an
RS-232 serial port with a standard AT-style nine-pin male D-connector.
b. Connect to the module’s Ethernet port, using the factory-loaded IP address,
192.168.0.100.
Note: This address is intended only for
initial connection in order to
complete the configuration. After the
initial configuration download, must
be changed before connecting to the
Ethernet network. When you store a
hardware configuration with a
different IP address, the temporary
IP address is lost; it is not restored by
a Clear operation.
c. Through the Ethernet connection of an ETM001 in the same rack with a known
IP address configuration.
