General information

1 General information

This manual describes the installation procedures and configuration of HEIDENHAIN absolute encoders and encoder gateways with PROFIBUS DPV2 functionality.

1.1 Encoder gateway

The advantages of the gateway concept is that it allows the use of small and very robust EnDat encoders, which make the encoder gateway solution suitable in applications where very high ambient temperature is a limiting factor. The encoder gateway supports singleturn encoders with up to 31 bit resolution and multiturn encoders with up to 37 bits resolution with the limitations described in this manual.

1.2 Absolute encoders

With an absolute encoder each angular position is assigned a coded position value generated by a code disc equipped with several parallel fine graduations tracks which are scanned individually. On singleturn encoders, i.e. an encoder producing absolute positions within one revolution, the absolute position information repeats itself with every revolution. So called multiturn encoders can also distinguish between revolutions. The numbers of unique revolutions is determined by the resolution of the multiturn scanning and repeats itself after the total resolution is reached.

1.3 PROFIBUS technology

PROFIBUS is a powerful and versatile 2-wire non-proprietary open field bus standard defined by several international standards such as EN 50170, IEC 61158 together with different device profiles. There are 3 different PROFIBUS versions available today, DP, FMS and PA. HEIDENHAIN products support the Decentralized Peripherals (DP) version. In addition to manufacturer-specific functions, the HEIDENHAIN devices described in this manual supports application class 3 and 4 according to the encoder profile
3.162 v4.1. The encoder device profile describing encoder functionality and additional information about PROFIBUS can be ordered from PROFIBUS User Organization, PNO.

1.3.1 PROFIBUS DP functionality levels

The main functions of the different levels are as follows:
DPV0: Supports the basic functionality for the PROFIBUS protocol. In principal this means the cyclical I/O communication and diagnostics. HEIDENHAIN have a separate manual for DPV0 devices.
DPV1: The most important benefits with DPV1 are the expanded functions for the acyclical data communication and alarm handling. This is a precondition for parameterization and calibration of field devices over the bus in runtime.
DPV2: In addition to the functionality above, DPV2 includes expansions that are required for time critical applications such as motion control. This means functions such as slave-to-slave communications and isochronous data exchange (time synchronization).

2 Encoder gateway installation

2.1 Settings inside the gateway

The encoder gateway addressing switches and bus termination must be configured during commissioning of the device. This is done by removing the back cover, i.e. screwing off the three screws at the rear of the gateway.

Node address switches

2.1.1 Node address

The node address of the encoder gateway can be set via three decimal rotary switches located inside the back cover. The weighting, x100, x10 and x1 are specified on the circuit board besides the switches. Permissible address range is between 0 and 126 but the lower addresses 0 to 2 are usually used by the master and not recommended to be used by the device. Each address used in a PROFIBUS network must be unique and may not be used by other devices.
The device address is only read and adopted when the gateway power supply is switched on. A restart of the gateway is therefore required in order to adopt changes done to the address settings.

Example: To set the node address to 115, the switch to the left
12
(x100) shall be set to 1, the switch in the middle(x10) should also be set to 1 and the switch to the right(x1) shall be set to 5.

In a PROFIBUS net, all devices are connected in a bus structure. Up to 32 devices (master and/or slaves) can be connected in one segment. When more devices are needed repeaters should be used to amplify the signals between segments. An active termination must be added in the beginning and the end of each bus segment in order to ensure error-free operation. In case of the gateway with cable glands such terminators are integrated inside the back cover and can be activated via dip switches as shown in figure 2. If the device is un-powered the A and B lines are internally terminated by a 220 Ω resistor.
Table 1 Termination switch settings
When encoder gateways with M12 connectors are used the termination should be done using a M12 terminating resistor plug.
Note: When M12 terminating resistor plugs are used, the
internal terminating switch shall not be activated.

Table 2 Pinning M12 power supply connector
Encoder gateways equipped with cable glands are delivered with a dust protection foil from the factory. The protection foil needs to be removed prior to installing the cables. It is recommended that gateways equipped with cable glands are equipped with a shielded power supply cable with conductor area between 0,34 mm is ø 6 mm to ø 8 mm for the power supply cable. The power supply screw terminal is located inside the back cover of the ga te way. In the case were the gateway is the last node in the bus-structure and only the cable glands for Supply and Bus-in is in use, the Bus out cable gland should be replaced with a M16 filler plug to ensure proper sealing.
The +E terminal shall be used to connect +E Volt (9-36Vdc). The 0V terminal shall be used to connect 0 Volt.

Located inside the back cover are four screw terminals containing the required bus line terminals marked A and B. Cable glands not used, should be replaced with a M16 filler plug to ensure proper sealing.
Note: Tighten all screws in the terminal, even if no cable has
been attached.
Note: The two A terminals are internally connected to each
other and the two B terminals are also connected to each other so it does not matter to which the bus lines are connected to.

2.4 Shielding philosophy

To achieve the highest possible noise immunity and resistance against other EMI related disturbances the bus and power supply cables shall always be shielded. The screen should be connected to ground on both ends of the cable. In certain cases compensation current might flow over the screen. Therefore a potential compensation wire is recommended.

2.5 GSD file

In order to start using the PROFIBUS DP gateway, a device description file needs to be downloaded and imported to the configuration software. The device description file is called a Generic Station Description file and contains the necessary implementation parameters needed for a PROFIBUS DP device.
Available GSD files can be downloaded from
www.heidenhain.com
18
Table 4 Available GSD file for DPV2 gateway
The GSD data is saved in the PROFIBUS master and transferred once to the gateway when the system is powered on. If the gateway has been started with one GSD file and a new GSD file with a different ID-number shall be used, the gateway needs to be restarted before it can use the new GSD file.

Located inside the back cover are two screw terminals containing the required power supply terminals marked (+) and (-). In the case were the encoder is the last node in the bus-structure and only the cable glands for Supply and Bus-in is in use, the Bus out cable gland should be replaced with a M16 filler plug to ensure proper sealing.
The (+) terminal shall be used to connect the +EV-line (9-36 Vdc). The (-) terminal shall be used to connect the 0 V-line.

The cable gland encoders shall be equipped with twisted pair shielded cable in accordance with EN 50170 and PROFIBUS guidelines. The guidelines recommend a conductor area higher than 0,34 mm ø 10 mm for the bus line cables. Located inside the back cover are four screw terminals containing the required bus line terminals marked (A) and (B). Cable glands not used should be replaced with a M16 filler plug to ensure proper sealing.
The (A) terminal shall be used to connect the A-line. The (B) terminal shall be used to connect the B-line.

Note: Tighten all screws in the terminal, even if no cable has
been attached.
Note: The two A terminals are internally connected to each
other and the two B terminals are also connected to each other so it does not matter to which terminal the bus lines are connected to.

3.3 Shielding philosophy

To achieve the highest possible noise immunity and resistance against other EMI related disturbances the bus and power supply cables shall always be shielded. The screen should be connected to ground on both ends of the cable. In certain cases compensation current might flow over the screen. Therefore a potential compensation wire is recommended.

3.4 GSD file

In order to start using an absolute encoder with PROFIBUS DP interface, a device description file needs to be downloaded and imported to the configuration software. The device description file is called a Generic Station Description file and contains the necessary implementation parameters needed for a PROFIBUS DP device.
Available GSD files can be downloaded from
www.heidenhain.com.
Table 9 Available GSD file for DPV2 encoder
The GSD data is saved in the PROFIBUS master and transferred once to the encoder when the system is powered on. If the encoder has been started with one GSD file and a new GSD file with a different ID-number shall be used, the encoder needs to be restarted before it can use the new GSD file.

Configuration example

4 Configuration example

This chapter will illustrate how to set up and configure an encoder gateway with PROFIBUS DPV2 in isochronous operation. In the example below a Siemens Step 7 PLC and SIMATIC MANAGER was used.

4.1 Device description file installation (GSD-file)

In order to start using an encoder gateway with PROFIBUS interface, a device description file needs to be downloaded and imported to the configuration software.
The latest available GSD file can be downloaded from
www.heidenhain.com.
Installation of GSD-files in SIMATIC MANAGER

1. Select Options -> Install GSD File and click the Browse button
to navigate to the location of the GSD file. If a bitmap picture representing the encoder is requested, make sure that the bitmap file is located in the same folder as the GSD file. A bitmap file is included in the zip-file avaliable from www.heidenhain.com.
2. Select the GSD file and click the Install button to start installing
the selected GSD file.
