General Remarks about Electrical Connections
Observe all general VDE, NEC and local wiring regulations when making electrical
connections.
CAUTION
Electrical connection work is to be carried out by a qualified technician.
CAUTION
Using free terminals as support terminals can cause system damage.
Free terminals in the base plate must not be used as wiring support points under
any circumstances (danger of damage)! The electrical connection is to be made at
the base plate. The appropriate connection diagrams are on pages 10 and 11.
Further wiring diagrams are contained in the circuit diagrams.
IMPORTANT
Do not disconnect the Excel 100C controller from power supply for more
than 72 hours.
The Excel 100C is equipped with a gold capacitor buffer that holds the
RAM data and supplies the real-time clock for 72 hours in case of a power
outage. Beyond this period of time, all RAM data and time information are
lost.
EXCEL 100C INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Cable Routing
Minimum distance to mains cables:
10 mm (0.4 in.) All signal and output cables (low voltage) should be regarded as communication
circuits in accordance with VDE 0100, VDE 0800 and NEC, it should therefore be
routed separately from line voltage. Minimum distance 10 cm (4 in.) for unshielded
cable. Minimum distance 10 mm (0.4 in.) for shielded cable. Joining sensor cables
should be avoided.
Shielding of Sensor and Actuator Cables
Shielding of sensor and actuator cables with low protective voltages is not
necessary if the general guidelines on cable routing are observed (see "Cable
Routing" on page 11). If, under certain circumstances, the routing guidelines cannot
be observed, shielded cable must always be used.
IMPORTANT
Shielded cables must be grounded on one side only.
The grounding of the shielded cable must be as shown in the diagram.
Shielding on one sideat the control cabinet ground: Shielding of I/O cables
connected to peripherals such as
sensors and actuators must be
grounded at the control cabinet side,
only; this to avoid ground loops.
11 EN1R-0144GE51 R1109
EXCEL 100C INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Shielding of Data Transmitting Cables (System Bus and Operator Interface)
IMPORTANT
Data transmitting cables must always be shielded to prevent radio
interference.
1. System Bus Cables
Connect shield of system bus cable
on both sides System bus cables must be shielded on both sides at the base plate terminal 33
and 36 of the controller device. Connection to the control cabinet ground or other
ground points is not permitted (see WARNING below)!
To connect remote operators units, ready-made cables are available (XW582,
XW584, XW585) with the shield already connected to the computer module plug
end.

System Bus (C-Bus)
EXCEL 100C INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Up to 30 controllers can communicate with one another and a PC central via the
system bus. In addition to Excel 50, 100, 500/600/800 controllers, other system bus
compatible components can also be connected (Excel IRC Multicontroller, Excel
EMC). The system bus must be connected through the individual controllers (open
ring).
Fig. 2. Open-ring connection of controllers
Excel 800Excel 100Excel 500Excel 50
NOTE: Star connection is not permissible because uncontrollable line reflections
may occur.
For setting up the system bus in the right way, three steps have to be followed:
cable specification for system bus
baud rate selection
The maximum communication speed of the XC5010C/XCL5010/Excel 50 /
Excel 100C is 76800 baud. These controllers can be mounted together with the
XC6010 or Excel 100B (with XD505A or XD508 submodule) since the XC5010C /
XCL5010 / Excel 50/Excel 100C communication speed can be adjusted to match
either submodule.
NOTE: When changing the baud rate of bus devices, proper communication
cannot be ensured until all bus devices are set to the same baud rate
again.
NOTE: When adding or removing a controller to/from the C-Bus, it may take up to
two minutes to re-initialize the bus. During this time communication on the
C-bus is lost.
See page 14 for details on setting the C-Bus termination on the Excel 100C.
IMPORTANT
For communication with more than 9600 baud it is required to enable the
termination of the first and the last device on the C-bus (see page 14). The
controllers with termination must be switched on prior to the controllers in
the middle of the C-bus. The C-bus might not work if the controllers with
termination are switched off.
System Bus Cable Types
The cable specification depends mainly on the baud rate. There are regional
differences as to whether shielded or unshielded cable must/can be used.
For detailed information on cables to be used in accordance to regional
requirements, please refer to the U.S. and European Specifications chapters.
System Bus Extension by Using Repeaters
The system bus length can be extended by using repeaters. Each repeater extends
the bus length by the amount of a single bus length. Due to differences in regional
guidelines, the maximum number of repeaters that may be added to a bus varies.
For detailed information on repeaters to be used in accordance to regional requirements, please refer to the U.S. and European Specifications chapters.

IMPORTANT
You must properly set the port selector (left to the front port, see figure on page 30); e.g. after having operated an MMI via the
front port, the switch must be set back to its left position to reactivate a modem being connected to the rear terminals. If the
switch is set to "front port“, the rear terminals are deactivated, and vice versa.

Modem Requirements
Modem must support Hayes-compatible command set (not V150 or V151 =
Microsoft command set)
Modem must support alpha-numeric return codes
Modem must follow serial baud rate of the controller
Modem must support auto-bauding (baud rate fall-back)
When carrier detect (connect) is reported, the carrier must be on simultaneously
at both modems (on controller side and on EBI/SymmetrE side) use same
modem
After a switch-on of the DTR line by the controller or EBI/SymmetrE, the modem
must accept a dial command after 3 seconds
Modem must answer AT commands in less than 3 seconds
No Set-Up for Standard Modem Behavior
If no special modem behavior is required, there is no need to set up or initialize the
modem/ISDN* terminal adapter. The Excel 100C will automatically detect the device
(MMI or modem) attached to the serial port and set the appropriate communication
speed. The controller will also automatically adapt to alphanumeric return codes
used by the modem. This automatic detection and adjustment can take up to 5
seconds.
31 EN1R-0144GE51 R1109
EXCEL 100C INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
NOTE: It is highly recommended that you use a state-of-the-art modem and leave
it in its factory setting.
Automatic Baud Rate Synchronization
The default communication speed between the Excel 100C and the local
modem/ISDN* terminal adapter is 9600 BPS.
The communication speed between the Excel 100C and EBI/SymmetrE
modems/ISDN* terminal adapters is automatically synchronized by the two devices
to the highest speed that both of the devices are capable of. This feature is called
"autobauding" and is a feature that all state-of-the-art modems/ISDN* terminal
adapters provide when left in their factory default settings.
The communication speed between the EBI/SymmetrE and its modem/ISDN*
terminal adapter is part of the modem set-up at the EBI/SymmetrE.
Auto / Manual Answer Detection
The Excel 100C will automatically detect whether the modem/ISDN* terminal
adapter is initialized in auto-answer or manu-answer mode, and it will set the
modem to manual answer mode (S0=0)
*ISDN NOTE: Communication via ISDN is applicable only for Europe.
Resetting the Modem
For those cases where it is not clear if the modem to be used is in its factory setting,
the modem can be reset to its factory setting by using the RESET MODEM
command in the Start-Up sequence on the MMI. This will allow a quick and easy
modem reset without having to run the modem set-up software or the Windows™
terminal program.
The RESET MODEM command causes the following commands to be sent to the
modem:
1. ATZ
executes hardware reset on modem
2. AT&FX3&W
resets modem to factory configuration settings, configures the modem to not
wait for the public phone system dial tone, and writes this to non-volatile
memory.
Set-Up for Special Modem Behavior
If special modem/ISDN* terminal adapter behavior is required, the communication
device should be set up according to the instructions provided with it. This typically
involves running a setup program on a computer with the device connected to the
computer serial port or using the Windows™ terminal program.
*ISDN NOTE: Communication via ISDN is applicable only for Europe.
Set-Up for In-house Telephone Systems
A common case of special modem behavior is when the modem is connected to an
in-house telephone network requiring a prefix to be dialed before the destination
number to provide access to the public telephone network. There are two important
aspects of the special initialization of the modem to consider:
1. Do not wait for the public network dial tone. Typically, the init command ATX3
will trigger the modem to dial without waiting for a public network dial tone.
Save this modem set-up in the modem EEPROM with the command AT&W.
EN1R-0144GE51 R1109 32
Check the modem handbook to verify the correct commands. Note that these
commands are executed automatically with the RESET MODEM command.
2. Add the prefix required for access to the public telephone network to the
destination telephone number. Depending on the in-house telephone system,
a certain prefix may have to be added to the destination number in the
EBI/SymmetrE system configuration/site definition screen prior to sending the
set-up to the remote Excel 100C controller.
Set-Up for Limited Communication Speed
The communication speed of the modem can be fixed to a lower rate in case of data
transmission errors due to telephone line limitations. See the XI581/582 Buswide
Operator Interface User Guide, EN2B-126GE51, for the procedure for fixing the
baud rate.
Troubleshooting
In case of any problems, the handbook of the modem or ISDN* terminal adapter
must be consulted.
A “Frequently Asked Questions and Troubleshooting” document is available via the
Honeywell Technical Assistance Center (TAC) or, for Honeywell employees, on the
HIVE under:
