Mounting

Procedure

1. Use a size T10 Torx screwdriver to remove the screws indicated in the picture.

2. Keep the screws, because you should reuse them.

3. Make your mounting bracket. The material should be about 1 to 2mm thick, to enable you to reuse the original (M3) screws. The space between the two screws is 43.7 mm.

4. Fix your mount either using the original screws or using M3 screws penetrating a maximum of 5mm into the housing. Fasten the screws only handtight.

Important: You must ground the ClipX housing, such as by way of the mount.

The ClipX features IP20 protection in accordance with EN 60529 (protection against touch by fingers; protection against foreign bodies of Ø > 12mm).

The ClipX is supplied as standard with easy-fit push-in terminals. But you can also obtain screw-type terminals from Phoenix Contact (https://www.phoenixcontact.com

– MC 1.5/3-ST-3.5 BK for the analog output, – MC 1.5/12-ST-3.5 BK for the power supply, digital I/O, ClipX bus and syn-

chronization of the TF amplifiers, – MC 1.5/13-ST-3.5 BK for connection of sensors. Other variants, such as with locking clips, are also available from Phoenix Con-

tact, e.g. MCVW 1.5/…, MCVR 1.5/…, FK-MCP 1.5/… The clamping range of the plug terminals is 0.2mm

(AWG16). If you need to connect multiple wires to one terminal, adapt the wire cross-sections accordingly. Use 10mm wire end ferrules (without plastic collars) to connect the wires to the terminals wherever possible.

The plug terminals can be protected against interchanging by the supplied coding pins. To do so, plug a coding pin into one of the slots in the device sockets and remove the lug of the corresponding connection on the plug terminal.

6.2 Shielding and grounding design

The supply voltage connection, as well as the signal and sense leads, must be installed in such a way that electromagnetic interference does not adversely affect module functionality (HBM recommendation: “Greenline shielding design” – see http://www.hbm.com/Greenline shortest possible length to the plug terminals and, as far as possible, lay the shield flat at the control cabinet inlet with shield connection terminal blocks, e.g. type SKS 8-SNS35 – 3062786 from Phoenix Contact – see illustration.

Fig. 7: Shield connection terminal block for flat contacting of cable shields (ex-

ample)

Double-shielded connecting cables, e.g. for sensors

We recommend using HBM cable Kab 7.5/00-2/2/2 wherever possible. The cable is double-shielded and low in capacitance. When using double-shielded cables, connect the outer shield only to the connection for the housing (ground

). Always connect the cable shield by the

symbol , labeled “Outer cable shield” in the connection diagrams), not to one of the GND connections ( ). In the case of control cabinets, also lay this shield contacting on the cabinet – see illustration of shield clamp. Connect the inner shields of the sensor cables to the connection labeled “Inner cable shield” ( ). Use the shortest lines possible for the connections.

Applications in areas with potentially explosive atmospheres are exceptions. There connect all cable shields to the potential equalization connection.

Single-shielded cables

Connect the shields of single-shielded cables to the connection for the housing

(ground symbol , labeled “Outer cable shield” or “Cable shield” in the connection diagrams), not to one of the GND connections ( ). In the case of control cabinets, also lay this shield contacting on the cabinet – see illustration of shield clamp.

6.6 Connecting transducers

Important: Refer to the information on the connection clamps (Avail-

able connections and LEDs) and cable shielding (Shielding and grounding design).

The signals of the connected sensor or signal are digitized by the ClipX at

19.2kHz. You can view various signal processing data values in your browser:

• the field value, i.e. the input signal,

• the ADC value, i.e. the signal of the A/D converter in digits,

• the filtered ADC value, i.e. the signal of the A/D converter based on your selected filter, also in digits,

• the gross signal, i.e. the signal after zero balancing and scaling,

• the net signal, i.e. the signal after taring.

The taring level is located in the signal path after the gross signal. Normally the taring function is only required for weighing applications, such as to record the content and total weight of a container.

6.10 Synchronizing multiple ClipX CF amplifiers

You should synchronize multiple ClipX devices that supply sensors with carrier frequency (CF) so that the carrier frequency measuring amplifiers do not interfere with each other. This will prevent crosstalk between adjacent sensor cables, resulting in disturbance to measurements. If you are using only sensors with direct voltage (DC) amplifiers, no synchronization is necessary.

To synchronize, interconnect the Sync terminals of the devices and the ClipX bus GND terminals, unless you have already connected the latter to transmit measured values. Lay the lines from the first device to the second, from the second to the third device, etc. (line topology). The cable must have twisted-pair wires, and be shielded. The ClipX bus GND and Sync lines must be twisted and shielded. See also Available connections and LEDs

6.11 Signal propagation times within the ClipX and over the ClipX bus

The various modules in the ClipX are combined into a number of groups, each with fixed cycle times. This makes it easier to calculate the total propagation time of a signal. The following diagrams indicate the propagation times of the various groups as well as any potential additions you might need to allow for the hardware of inputs/outputs. To calculate the maximum propagation time of signals running through more than one group, such as min/max values obtained from calculated channels, simply add together the propagation times of the respective groups.

Pay attention to the sequencing of the analysis within a group. If source signals are formed only later in the group, this will double the propagation time until the result is available.

Changes in digital flags are analyzed in the following order: Zeroing, taring, clear zero value,

clear tare value, reset limit value switch, reset peak values, hold held values, clear hold values.

Asynchronous transfer of the values on the ClipX bus is complete after max. 1 ms, i.e on the next

cycle.

The digital outputs have an additional response time of max. 0.25 ms.

Some signals might also have sources from other groups. For example, the analog output might deliver a signal from the ClipX bus. In these cases,you must add the propagation time of the source signal's group in order to get the total propagation time.

Example 1

Propagation time from input, e.g. 10V, 20mA or DC full/half bridge, to analog output (10V) with a Bessel filter at 1kHz:

• A/D converter (ADC): 260µs

• Filter: 0.43/1000 = 430µs

• Analog output: 52µs Added to this is a jitter of up to 52µs, as the A/D converter only starts a new con-

version every 52µs. So the total propagation time is 742 … 797µs.

Group 2: Flags, Digital I/Os, calculated values, ClipX bus

Fig. 30: Maximum propagation time for group 2: 1ms

Example 2

Propagation time from input (see group 1) to a digital output with a Bessel filter at 1kHz, limit value switch at half the step height.

• A/D converter (ADC): 260µs

• Filter: 0.43/1000 = 430µs

•Group 2: 1ms

• Digital output: max. 250µs response time

Added to this is a jitter of up to 52µs, as the A/D converter is not synchronized with group 1. In the best case, a value is available at the start of the analysis in group 2 and can be outputted directly at the digital output for example. So the total propagation time is 940 … 1992µs.

Example 3

Propagation time of a value from the ClipX bus via a limit value switch to a digital output.

• ClipX bus: 1ms

• Limit value switch: 52µs

• Digital output: 1ms plus max. 250µs response time

This result in a total propagation time of 2.3ms. However, you must add the propagation time in the device that places the value on the ClipX bus in order to get the time from the sensor until a response occurs.

Starting up the ClipX

7 Starting up the ClipX

The first section of this chapter explains the general power-up and operating behavior of the ClipX following a successful installation. Then the steps required to put the ClipX into operation are explained. For initial start-up, you should connect the ClipX via Ethernet to a PC. The description of operation via one of the fieldbuses can be found in chapter Operation via fieldbus

If you want to operate multiple ClipX devices, you should first connect each ClipX device individually to a PC and perform a basic configuration (e.g. IP address and Name). Then read the section headed

plifiers so as to avoid interference between the devices.

Synchronizing multiple ClipX CF am-

7.1 Power-up and operating behavior

When the ClipX is powered up, all the inputs and output remain at 0 or 0.0V as appropriate. The start parameter set is loaded and activated first (= initialization). As soon as the ClipX has initialized, the outputs are set to the preset or calculated values (factory setting for the digital outputs: 0, not inverted). If the analog output is inactive, the output has a high internal resistance. If the source signal for the analog output is invalid, the specified value in case of an invalid signal is outputted (factory setting 11V but disabled).

The digital inputs and outputs and the calculations are updated at the sampling rate (1000Hz). The signal at the analog output is updated at 19.2kHz. If the source signal has a smaller rate of change, the value is outputted multiple times. Values are transferred from synchronized ClipX devices at a maximum of 1000 values per second, so with six connected device you get 6000 values per second. The maximum time delay between the ClipX values transmitted over the ClipX bus is 1ms.

ClipX

Up to three clients (PCs) can connect to a ClipX; any further connection is then rejected.

a4643-1.0 HBM: public 57

Page 60

Starting up the ClipX

Important: Some browsers make more than one connection. In this case, the number of possible additional connections is reduced.

7.2 Connecting via Ethernet

Connecting

You have two options for connecting to the ClipX:

1. Make a direct 1:1 connection. Connect your PC and the ClipX by an Ethernet cable. In rare cases, you will

need an Ethernet cross cable for this. Normally the PC will adapt automatically to the cable.

2. Connect over a network. Connect your PC to the network or switch, and connect the ClipX in turn to the network or switch – in each case using an Ethernet cable.

Important: The transfer of commands and data is not encrypted or secure (no https). So you should only operate the ClipX in an internal network with no connection to the Internet or – if an Internet connection is essential – connect via a VPN tunnel.

In both cases, your PC should use the DHCP setting (Obtain an IP address automatically) to connect. With fixed IP addresses this is only possible if the PC and ClipX are using addresses from the same network segment (ClipX factory default setting: DHCP). The connections use IPv4; IPv6 is not supported.

Use the first variant if you want to use multiple ClipX devices. First connect to each individual ClipX, and assign each one a unique device name through your web browser. This will enable you to identify the individual ClipX devices later, otherwise (depending on the connection method you use) it will not always be possible to distinguish between them.

a4643-1.0 HBM: public ClipX

Page 61

Starting up the ClipX

Connecting

1. Launch your web browser. The latest versions of Firefox, Chrome and Microsoft Internet Explorer (version 11 or higher) are supported and have been tested by HBM.

2. Enter ClipX/ or http://ClipX/ or http://ClipX.local in the address bar. The Home page is displayed.

Important: Do not use https; only http.

If you have already changed the device name, you must enter the new name in place of ClipX. If you have forgotten the name, try one of the alternative options.

Click on in the header and the SYS LED on the ClipX you are using will flash red/green.

Alternative options

If the method described above does not work, in Windows 7 or higher you can try the following (detect via UPnP):

1. Open Windows Explorer.

2. Click on Network.

3. In the Other devices section you should see the ClipX device (with the device name, factory default ClipX).

4. Double-click on the icon.

If you know the device's IP address, you can also type it in your browser's address bar, e.g. http://192.168.169.130.

Install one of the following apps from the Google Play Store if you want to connect the ClipX using Android:

ClipX

Starting up the ClipX

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.hbm.devices.scan.ui.android

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tjjang.upnptool https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.melloware.zeroconf

The apps use different connection methods – see also No device found?

Under Linux you can also type one of the following lines to call up a list of ClipX devices and their IP addresses or MAC addresses respectively and enter them in your browser:

$ nmblookup clipx

$ avahi-browse --all

Which line works is dependent on which method (NetBIOS or Bonjour) you are able to use, i.e. what software is installed on your PC.

7.2.1 No device found?

If no connection is made, there may be a number of reasons.

General reasons

• Is the device actually on (connected to the power supply)?

• Is the system LED on the ClipX lit? See also Health monitoring, LEDs.

• Is the interface cable connected?

• Have you enabled the correct interface or correct interface adapter on the

PC?

Problems with the interface

• Are you using the correct Ethernet cable?

Use an Ethernet switch with a standard cable or a direct connection by a cross cable.

• Is your Ethernet switch operating correctly?

If you are not operating any other devices on the switch with which you can check the function, try to set up a direct connection between the PC and the measuring device.

a4643-1.0 HBM: public ClipX

Page 63

Starting up the ClipX

• Have you waited long enough for the PC to specify its address?

If the PC cannot find a server in the network, the search for the server looks in the DHCP setting (Obtain an IP address automatically) first of all. (The icon for the interface in the Windows 7 tray indicates the search, but the icon might only appear if it is configured to do so. In Windows 8 and higher it is no longer displayed.) It then takes about 30 seconds before an automatic address or the specified alternative address (if any) is set. No device is found during this time.

• Is it possible that your firewall is blocking the connection?

Try deactivating your firewall or open the following ports:

• For communication with the device via a browser, TCP ports 80 and

8081 are required.

• Different ports are required to locate the ClipX depending on the variant.

For UPnP TCP 80 and UDP-Multicast at IP address 239.255.255.250 (sending and receiving) with port 1900, for NetBIOS UDP 137, for Avahi or Zeroconf (similar to Bonjour) UDP-Multicast is required at IP address

224.0.0.251 (sending and receiving) with port 5353.

• If a WLAN is also active with your PC, test whether the device is found when

you temporarily switch off the WLAN (only for the time of the scan). With some WLAN configurations, problems can occur if multiple Ethernet ports are enabled.

• If your PC has several Ethernet interfaces, try deactivating all other Ethernet

interfaces.

• If you are using the device in a large network, contact your network adminis-

trator. There are a series of options in managed networks to limit or completely prevent data transmission between the individual nodes. Administrative access control settings may therefore by needed here.

Notes

• In Windows XP only the name resolution under NetBIOS is available.

• For name resolutions via NetBIOS, you should only ever connect one ClipX as long as you have not changed the device names.

ClipX

Starting up the ClipX

• UPnP is only available as from Windows 7.

• Avahi or Zeroconf (similar to Bonjour) is only available if a corresponding service, such as Bonjour print services, is installed.

7.2.2 Possible cases and their effects when connected via Ethernet

When connecting between the PC and ClipX the following cases may arise:

1. No server in the network, the PC has no address (DHCP is used), and the ClipX is likewise set to DHCP (factory default setting). When using Windows XP or higher, temporary addresses are automatically assigned by the PC (APIPA), the ClipX connection can be made.

2. No server in network, PC has no setting or is using DHCP, the ClipX has a fixed address No connection can be established with this combination.

3. No server in the network, PC and ClipX have a fixed address A connection can normally be made only if the addresses of the PC and ClipX are in the same network segment and both are using the same subnet mask.

4. DHCP server in network, PC has a fixed address or uses DHCP, the ClipX has a fixed address. A connection can normally be made only if the addresses of the PC and ClipX are in the same network segment.

5. DHCP server in network, PC and ClipX are using DHCP The connection can be established.

7.2.3 Set Ethernet address of PC

Procedure for Windows 10

1. Use the icon in the notification area of the task bar to open the Network and Internet Settings (right mouse button).

2. In the Change network settings section click on Change adapter options.

3. Right click on the relevant adapter (port), select Properties and specify an Administrator account or confirm the security prompt.

4. Select Internet protocol version 4 (TCP/IPv4) and click on Properties.

5. Activate Use the following IP address and enter an address with which the first three groups of numbers match the groups of numbers of the HBM device and only the last group of numbers contains a different number between 1 and 254. The last group of numbers must not match the one on the HBM device.

6. For Subnet mask enter the same groups of numbers as are present on the HBM device.

7. Then click OK or Close to close all open dialogs.

7.2.4 Resetting Ethernet network settings

You can reset the Ethernet network settings (and only them) to their factory defaults:

1. Switch off the power supply.

2. Press the Reset button (see picture) using a pencil or a small screwdriver and keep it pressed while you switch the power back on.

3. Wait for the system LED to start flashing green before releasing the button. The ClipX will perform a restart automatically.

4. Wait until after the restart is finished before connecting to the device.

Fig. 33: System LED (1) and Reset button (2)

Configuring the Ethernet port after resetting (factory defaults)

• Use DHCP (“Obtain an IP address automatically”, meaning from the server or via APIPA, i.e. negotiate in the network, if your PC is also using DHCP).

• Device name: ClipX.

• All IP address, subnet mask, gateway or DNS settings are deleted.

7.3 Setting the ClipX using a web browser

Click on to switch language.

You make all the settings for sensors and signal processing in your browser.

You can view help on each topic by pressing F1 or clicking on . Click on to make the SYS LED of the ClipX being used flash red/green if you have connected multiple ClipX devices.

After making the ClipX device settings in your browser, save them all to your PC by choosing Device Storage from the menu.

7.4 Ethernet API

The Ethernet API (Application Programming Interface) is a programming interface by which you can send data via the Ethernet port to the ClipX. The data are then displayed in the browser, and can be polled over the fieldbuses. You can program an Ethernet API yourself for example.

7.5 Using parameter sets

You can store up to 10 parameter sets in the ClipX. A parameter set contains almost all the settings of the various menus for Amplifier (sensors), Calculated Channels, Peak Values and Limit Switches etc. It does not include the net- work settings, the settings for the fieldbus, the ClipX bus settings or settings for synchronization of the CF amplifiers.

You can also transfer the parameter sets together with the other device settings to your PC. Give the parameter sets names so that you can distinguish them more easily. You can use up to 30 characters per name.

on the second line in the panel indicates that the original settings of the current parameter set are no longer being used. Save the settings to a parameter set so as not to lose them.

You can save, load and activate parameter sets via the web browser or the fieldbus interface, or activate them only via the digital inputs.

Processing parameter sets

On a new ClipX all the parameter sets contain the factory setting. You can reset to those defaults at any time by clicking on

FACTORY SETTINGS in the

browser while a parameter set is active. When the ClipX powers up, all the parameter sets are translated into the rele-

vant binary instructions and stored in the RAM in order to enable quick parameter set changing. Then the start parameter set is activated.

Each parameter set is assigned a check digit (CRC, cyclic redundancy check) in the RAM in order to avoid errors.

It takes just a few milliseconds to change the active parameter set. However, in the event of a parameter set switch which changes sensor settings, filters or the analog output, the measured value status is set to

INVALID for approximately

2.5 seconds so as to suppress transient responses on the outputs. Brief timeouts may also occur on the ClipX bus (SYS LED turns yellow).

The synchronous modes of the ClipX with these fieldbus systems provide only synchronized data transfer, not processing of the data. The processing of queries and commands, such as the control word or access to the object dictionary, normally takes additional time. In case of doubt, perform your own time measurements with your system – see also Signal propagation times within the

can also set both via your fieldbus controller. Carry out the further configuration of the fieldbus using your PROFINET configuration tool.

Two DAPs (Device Access Points) are available to you for PROFINET:

• A “fast” DAP with a minimum cycle time of 0.25ms and six free slots.

• A “slow” DAP with a minimum cycle time of 1ms and 30 free slots.

8.5.2 Settings for EtherCAT

You can specify all the settings via your EtherCAT configuration tool. To configure the ClipX, the EtherCAT master can either use the ESI file or –

without an ESI file – download the object dictionary via the EtherCAT connection (device scan).

By default, no PDOs are assigned. You must make the PDO assignment yourself. Then activate the download in the master so that the assignment is transferred to the ClipX.

SAFE-OPERATIONAL

The ClipX has no safe output state. On the transition from OPERATIONAL to SAFE-OPERATIONAL, the EtherCAT-controlled outputs retain their instantaneous value, and are no longer updated in SAFE-OPERATIONAL.

8.5.3 Settings for EtherNet/IP™

First make the network settings in the browser depending on your network configuration:

– DHCP server in network: Set DHCP under Config Control. – BOOTP server in network: Set BOOTP under Config Control. – No server in network: Set STATIC under Config Control and specify IP

Address and Netmask (subnet mask). The Gateway setting is optional, and depends on your network.

Click on

Then select which cyclic I/O data you want to transmit, as no configuration object exists. Click

APPLY to apply your configuration. When you do so, a run-

ning EtherNet/IP™ connection is closed and is restarted with the changed I/O image. At the top of the browser window you see the current settings. Import them manually into your EtherNet/IP™ configuration tool.

You can also download your configuration to your PC as a CSV file for documentation purposes (

DOWNLOAD IO-IMAGE). Depending on your browser set-

ting, you are prompted to select a folder, or the file is saved to your Download folder. The file is for information purposes only, however, and cannot be reimported.

From the menu choose Device Storage and BACKUP or RESTORE as appropriate to save the configuration on your PC and transfer it to another device.

8.5.4 Settings for PROFIBUS

In your browser, specify the address of the ClipX on the PROFIBUS. The factory setting is 126 (invalid address). The bit rate is automatically detected by the ClipX. Carry out the further configuration of the fieldbus using your PROFIBUS configuration tool.

After configuring the ClipX, you can download the resultant GSD file and the DPV1 list to the PC:

DOWNLOAD GSD and DOWNLOAD DPV1 LIST.

Depending on your browser setting, you are prompted to select a folder, or the file is saved to your Download folder.

The names you set for the various signals are applied in the GSD file.

The minimum cycle time (Min_Slave_Intervall) is 0.6ms. If the PROFIBUS controller does not take this value from the GSD file, you must set it manually.

The DPV1 objects are addressed by way of Slot and Index. Whether a module has been configured in a ClipX PROFIBUS slot (and if so, which one) is irrele-

vant. There are, however, PROFIBUS configuration tools that only send DPV1 requests when there is actually a module in the scanned slot. In this case you must fill up the empty slots.

CiA404-compliant objects are located in slot 4.
