INTRODUCTION

General

The XI882 operator interface, in the following simply named XI882, allows operating controllers belonging to both the Excel 500 family (e.g. Excel 50/80/100/500//800) and to the Excel Web family (XL1000C or later versions only). XI882 automatically recognizes the connected controller type (Excel Web family or Excel 500 family) and automatically starts the correct form of communication.

Fig. 1. XI882 operator interface

The XI882 is operated using the finger or the stylus provided as an accessory with every device. You can navigate through the screens, selecting options and making inputs by tapping with your finger or with the stylus.

When using the XI882 as the operator interface for an Excel Web controller, it will display only the web pages of the Excel Web controller. When using it for an Excel 500 family controller, only the operation pages for the Excel 500 family will be displayed.

Controller Models XI882 can communicate with Excel 500 family controllers and with Excel Web

controllers.

XI882 can operate the controller it is connected to, and any controller which is connected on the same bus (bus-wide operation).

NOTE: The Excel 500 family of controllers must have up-to-date software that

includes the bus-wide access mode feature for XI882.

Bus-wide operation XL50 / 100 / 500 / 800 When operating on a LON-Bus in bus-wide mode, controllers and front-ends (EBI)

will be displayed in the bus-wide controller selection list box.

Upon selection of EBI, the Excel Touch generates an error message, and once this

error message is confirmed by the user, Excel Touch will fall-back to the local controller home screen.

See section “Configuration”

on the Refresh icon in the toolbar to detect the controller.

controller having the same controller number (assuming that both controllers do not reside on the same C-Bus) you should delete the previously created fast access lists of the first controller before connecting it to the new controller. Otherwise XI882 will display the fast access lists referring to the old controller, which will not match.

Memory sticks must be formatted before use in FAT (no FAT32)

EN2B-0615GE51 R0709 10

USER GUIDE XI882

USB Memory Device Use with XI882

NOTE: This section applies to Excel 500 Family Controllers only.

The XI882 has two USB ports for connecting a USB memory device to it in order to upload/download applications, download firmware and import parameter files etc. The USB memory device should have the directory structure as shown below. If this structure is not present in the device, you have to create it using a PC.

Fig. 2. Directory Structure required in the memory device

The following folders should be present in the memory device:

ApplicationUploadFiles This folder is for uploading the application from the controller to the memory device.

Whenever an application is uploaded, it will be stored in this directory by default. If you want to store the application in other directories, then you must create Subdirectories under this directory.

ApplicationDnloadFiles This folder is for downloading the application from the memory device to the

controller. It is recommended to create a sub-directory under this folder and copy all files related to the specific controller application in it.

FirmwareDnloadFile This folder is for downloading firmware from the memory device into the controller.

You can create different folders for different firmware of different controllers under this folder and store firmware files in the same.

ParameterFiles This folder is for importing the parameter information from parameter files of any

specific application. You should copy parameter files generated with CARE in this directory and import the same in XI882.

11 EN2B-0615GE51 R0709

XI882 USER GUIDE

TrendFiles This folder is for storing the trending information on the memory device. All the data

recorded during trend recording process is directly stored on the memory device. It is mandatory to have the USB memory device connected to the XI882 in order to use trending functionality.

USER GUIDE XI882

Startup Screens

Powering up XI882 On successfully powering up XI882 (for connections, see XI882 mounting

instructions MU1B-0387GE51, the XI882 MMI will display the Honeywell logo on the screen as shown below. This screen will appear for approximately 20 sec.

Fig. 3. Startup screen with Honeywell logo

Next, the XI882 will try to detect the Excel 500 family controller and Excel Web controller. In case of the Excel Web controller, XI882 will try to find the Excel Web controller by pinging the previously stored IP address of the Excel Web controller. During this time, it will show the auto detection message as shown below. This screen has a time-out of 1 min.

Case 2: XI882 detects an Excel Web controller only.

Case 3: XI882 detects both an Excel 500 family controller and an Excel Web controller.

Depending on the detection of the controller connected to the XI882, there are two possible Excel Web scenarios:

Case A: The XI882 detects the Excel Web controller.

Case B: The XI882 does not detect the Excel Web controller.

Case A (Excel Web is detected) Upon successful detection of an Excel Web controller by the XI882, the screen

below will be displayed. When tapping the Set up button, you will be able to do the

Interface-related settings as well as to set the Excel Web IP address. This screen has a time-out of 20 sec, so if you do not select any of the options, the screen will be automatically replaced after 20 sec by the Excel Web controller homepage.

If any network settings were done previously, these settings will be checked at the time-out of this screen and the Excel Web homepage will be shown; otherwise, the Interface settings screen stays on continuously.

Configure XI882 for Excel 500 Family Controllers

If XI882 detects both an Excel 500 family controller and an Excel Web controller, or if XI882 does not detect any controller, the screen below is displayed. You can select any mode of operation.

Fig. 20. Startup screen when both controllers/ no controllers are available

In order to operate an Excel 500 family controller, make sure,

– that the correct serial cable (XW585 or XW885) is connected both to

XI882 and to the controller

– that the controller is powered up, running and operational with a loaded

application.

– that in case a common transformer is used for XI882 and the

controller(s), 24VAC and zero (signal ground) are not mixed up!! If this is the case, the serial cable will create a ground loop and a short circuit, which will result in a powerless XI882 (black display).

Parameters

In order to display parameter texts, they have to be imported into the XI882 from an

USB memory device.

Parameter texts can be imported for every controller on the bus. In order to import parameter texts for a bus-wide controller (not the locally connected one), you have to select the bus-wide controller, log into it, and then import the parameter texts for it.

XI882 can not import the same parameter.txt file into more than one controlller. Identical parameter.txt file names must be renamed on the USB stick before importing them into XI882.

Parameter text files for the local controller and for the bus-wide controller must be backed up before a software update and restored after the software update to avoid a data loss.

NOTE: The Parameter Text Files for the physically connected controller and for

all bus-wide controllers will survive a WIN CE update and power fail.

The icon displays parameters of the connected controller. For each parameter the following properties are displayed:

• plant the parameter belongs to

• sub module of that plant

• control loop used in the sub module

• position

Fig. 119. Parameters

Prerequisites

1) An USB memory device must be plugged into the touch-panel.

2) On that USB memory device, the directory “ParameterFiles” must be present (to be created beforehand).

On the CARE PC, browse to the project folder and copy the parameter files (.txt) of

each controller to the directory “ParameterFiles” on the USB memory device. If desired edit/translate the parameter files using a text editor.

Tap Import Information button. Select the appropriate .TXT file from the list and tap the ‘tick mark’. Tap the ‘cross
