An electrical shock is the result of a current flowing through the human
body. The resulting effect depends on the intensity and duration of the
current and on its path through the body. Currents in the range of
approximately ½ mA can cause effects in persons with good health, and
indirectly cause injuries resulting from startle responses. Higher currents
can cause more direct effects, such as burns, muscle spasms, or
ventricular fibrillation.
In dry conditions permanent voltages up to approximately 42.4 V peak or
60 V are not considered as dangerous if the contact area is equivalent to
the size of a human hand.

4.3 Notes for the Configuration of the Master Device
To configure the Master, a device description file is required. Please note
the following notes for the configuration of the Master Device:
System Note
EtherCAT Slave
To configure the Master, an XML file (device description file) is required. The settings in the
used Master must comply with the settings in the Slave to establish communication. Important
parameters are: Vendor ID, Product Code, Serial Number, Revision Number, Output and Input
Data Bytes.
If the XML file Hilscher cifX RE ECS V2.2.x.xml is use/updated, the firmware with the version
2.2.x must be use/updated.
The loadable firmware supports for the number of cyclic input data and for cyclic output data in
total up to 400 bytes. If more than 200 bytes for input data or for output data should be
exchanged via EtharCAT, then a customer specific XML file is necessary. Additionall y the
following formular applies: (number of input bytes + 3)/4 + (number of output bytes + 3)/4 must
be less or equal to 100.
To configure the Scanner/Master, an EDS file (device description file) is required. The settings
in the used Scanner/Master must comply with the settings in the Adapter/Slave to establish
communication. Important parameters are: Input, Output Data Bytes, Vendor ID, Product Type,
Product Code, Major Rev, Minor Rev, IP Address and Netmask.
To configure the Managing Node/Master, an XDD file (device description file) is required. The
settings in the used Managing Node/Master must comply with the settings in the Controlled
Node/Slave, to establish communication. Important parameters are: Vendor ID, Product Code,

The sercos Master uses the sercos address to communicate with the slave. Some Masters will
verify Device ID, Vendor Code, Input Data Size and Output Data Size and will do further
communication to the Slave only if all these values match. Therefor the Master reads these
parameters from the Slave and compares them with the configuration stored in the Master.
The parameters Device ID, Vendor Code, Input Data Size and Output Data Size are part of the
SDDML device description file. If for the configuration of the sercos Master SDDML files are
used and a default value of one of these parameters was changed, then a SDDML file must be
created in the configuration software via Export SDDML and then used in the configuration of
the sercos Master.
To configure the Master, a GSD file (device description file) is required. The settings in the used
Master must comply with the settings in the Slave to establish communication. Important
parameters are: Station Address, Ident Number, Baudrate and Config Data (the configuration

7.2 Failure in 10 MBit/s Half Duplex Mode and Workaround
Affected Hardware
Hardware with the communication controller netX 50, netX 100 or
netX 500; netX/Internal PHYs.
When can this Failure occur?
When using standard Ethernet communication with 10 MBit/s half duplex
mode, the PHY gets stuck in case of network collisions. Then no further
network communication is possible. Only device power cycling allows
Ethernet communication again.
This problem can only occur with Ethernet TCP/UDP IP, EtherNet/IP or
Modbus TCP protocols when using hubs at 10 MBit/s. The issue described
above is not applicable for protocols which use 100 MBit/s or full duplex
mode.
Solution / Workaround:
Do not use 10 MBit/s-only hubs. Use either switches or 10/100 MBit/s Dual
Speed hubs, to make sure the netX Ethernet ports are connected with 100
MBit/s or in full duplex mode.
This erratum is fixed with all components of the ‘Y’ charge (9 digit charge
number shows ‘Y’ at position 5 (nnnnYnnnn).

No Power: If no power is supplied to the device, the MS LED shall be steady
off.
Operational: If the device is operating in a normal condition, the MS LED shall
be steady green.
Standby (Device needs commissioning): If the device needs commissioning
due to configuration is missing, incomplete or incorrect, the MS LED shall be
flashing green.
Minor Fault: If the device has detected a recoverable minor fault, the MS LED
shall be flashing red.
NOTE: An incorrect or inconsistent configuration would be considered a minor
fault.
Unrecoverable Fault: If the device has detected a non-recoverable major
fault, the MS LED shall be steady red. It may be necessary to replace the
Slave device.
Device Self Test: While the device is performing its self test, the MS LED shall
be flashing green/red.
No power / Speed Detection: If no power is supplied to the device or the
network data rate is checked, the NS LED shall be steady off.
Device Self Testing: While the device is performing its self test, the NS LED
shall be flashing green/red.
Non-participated / Participated: If the data rate is known and the Slave is
waiting for the STW (status write operation) signal and the Allocate signal, the
NS LED shall be flashing green.
Participated: If the Slave has been allocated by the Master and an I/O
connection is established, the NS LED shall be steady green.
Non-participated / Speed Detection: If an I/O connection timeout or an
network timeout is detected, the NS LED shall be flashing red.
Communication fault: If a “Duplication MAC ID” failure has been deteced, the
NS LED shall be steady red.
For the Ethernet interface use RJ45 plugs and twisted pair cable of
category 5 (CAT5) or higher, which consists of 4 twisted cores and has a
maximum transmission rate of 100 MBit/s (CAT5).
9.1.1 Ethernet Pin Assignment at the RJ45 Socket
Note: The device supports the Auto Crossover function. Due to this fact
RX and TX can be switched. The following figure shows the RJ45
standard pin assignment.

Further Notes:
(1) The RJ45 socket is only for use in LAN, not for telecommunication circuits.
(2) With loaded EtherCAT Master firmware only the RJ-45 channel 0 can be used, the
channel 1 is deactivated. For the Open Modbus/TCP firmware with V2.3.4.0 and higher
both RJ-45 RJ-45channels can be used.

Failure of the Network Communication
Do not operate hardware with the communication controllers netX 50,
netX100 or netX 500 with the protocols Ethernet TCP/UDP/IP,
EtherNet/IP or Modbus TCP at 10 MBit/s in half-duplex mode, otherwise
failure of the network communication can occur.
Use only switches or 10/100 MBit/s dual-speed hubs and ensure that
the network operates at 100 MBit/s and in full-duplex mode.
For further information refer to section Failure in 10 MBit/s Half Duplex

Device revisions equipped with a Rotary Switch Slot Number (Card ID)
are listed separately in section
14.
The Rotary Switch Slot Number (Card ID) serves to set the Slot Number
(Card ID) of the PC Cards cifX.
The figure below describes possible switch positions of the Rotary Switch
Slot Number (Card ID).
Switch Position Meaning
0 The value 0 means:
no Slot Number (Card ID), i. e. the Slot Number (Card ID) is not used,
for downwards compatibility purposes,
characterizes PC Cards cifX not equipped with a Rotary Switch Slot Number (Card ID);
i. e. these PC Cards cifX are identified via its device number and serial number.
Example
Rotary Switch Slot Number (Card ID) Switch Position 0
1 … 9
corresponds to the Slot Number (Card ID) 1 … 9
Example
Rotary Switch Slot Number (Card ID) Switch Position 1
Hardware: PC Cards cifX in Table 2on page
Table 78: Rotary Switch for Slot Number (Card ID), S1
9.8.1 Set Slot Number (Card ID)
If the Slot Number (Card ID) shall not be used:
¾ set the value 0.
Or
If the Slot Number (Card ID) shall be used:
¾ Set a value from 1 to 9.
For further information about the Slot Number (Card ID) refer to sectionThe Function „Slot Number (Card ID)“ (page 24) or to the user manual
Software Installation for the PC Cards cifX, sections Slot Number (Card ID)
in the cifX Device Driver Setup and Slot Number (Card ID) in the Configuration Software.
9.8.2 Note for Device Exchange Service (Replacement Case):
Important: For PC Cards cifX with
ID) in terms of a device exchange service (replacement case) you must
set at the replacement card cifX the same Slot Number (Card ID) as at
the preceding cifX. Then the same firmware and configuration is loaded
into the replacement card cifX, as into the preceding cifX.
