Safety notices

This manual contains information that must be observed to ensure your personal safety and to prevent property damage. The notices referring to your personal safety are highlighted in the manual by a safety alert symbol, notices referring to property damage only, have no safety alert symbol. Depending on the hazard level, warnings are displayed in descending order as follows:

Danger

indicates that death or serious injury will result if proper precautions are not taken.

Warning

indicates that death or serious injury may result if proper precautions are not taken.

Caution

with a warning triangle indicates that minor personal injury can result if proper precautions are not taken.

Caution

without a warning triangle means that material damage can occur if the appropriate precautions are not taken.

Notice

means an undesirable result or state can occur if the corresponding instruction is not followed.

In the event of a number of levels of danger prevailing simultaneously, the warning corresponding to the highest level of danger is always used. A warning with a warning triangle indicating risk of physical injury may also include a warning of the risk of damage to property.

Description 2

Modern automation systems consist of a variety of computers, controllers and systems that exchange data with one another. For real-time operation of such plants, it is essential that the times of all components are synchronous. This applies especially for error tracing, when event messages receive a time stamp and when cause and effect have to be identified through a reliable chronological sequence.

As plant central clock, SICLOCK TC 400 supplies the various plant components with the exact and reliable time, which is obtained from one or more external synchronizations with an official or legal time, usually GPS or DCF77 radio clocks.

The time is distributed via Ethernet, and also via point-to-point outputs.

Note

Use only one device as plant central clock to supply the time to all components throughout the plant.

Exception: redundant operation of the plant central clock.

2.2 External synchronization

SICLOCK TC 400 can be matched to the local official time or GMT via external synchronization in order to automate or restrict manual actions, such as daylight saving time switchovers and leap seconds, to a minimum.

External synchronizations can be GPS or DCF77 radio clocks, servers (e.g. time signal from an NTP server), further SICLOCK TC 400 devices or other signal sources. They are connected to RADIO CLOCK 1 or RADIO CLOCK 2 or to one of the four Ethernet ports on the device.

NTP servers are supported as external synchronization on the Ethernet ports.

Possible radio clocks to RADIO CLOCK 1 and RADIO CLOCK 2:

• SICLOCK GPS1000

• SICLOCK GPSDEC

• SICLOCK DCFRS

Third-party products can be connected via TTY (passive). The following protocols are supported:

Description

• Demodulated DCF77

• Serial:

If a discontinuity of more than 5 s occurs in the external synchronization, the protected synchronization is activated and, for safety reasons, the synchronization not performed.

Time assurance through microstepping mode

A time difference between the external synchronization and the device, which can occur through a temporary radio failure or switchover to a substitute synchronization, is automatically cleared unnoticeably in microstepping mode for the plant operation. There is no inconsistency in the time.

Further information and parameterization options for protected synchronization and the microstepping mode are described in Section Synchronization (Section 9.3.2).

Note

Only parameterize the plant time at one location within the synchronization hierarchy, ideally at the plant central clock.

2.5 Commissioning

The commissioning can be divided into the following steps:

1. Installation (Section 5)

2. Connecting (Section 6)

3. Assigning IP address on the device

Parameterization and Operation on the Device (Section 8)

4. Parameterization (Section 9)

With a few exceptions, the settings are made with the configuration tool, see Configuration Tool (Section 7).

2.6 Redundancy

Redundant external synchronization

Up to two radio clocks and up to four time servers can be operated on the SICLOCK TC 400 for the external synchronization.

The priorities of the external synchronizations and therefore the redundancy behavior can be set via parameters, see Redundancy (Section 9.1.3).

Redundant SICLOCK TC 400 plant central clock

A SICLOCK TC 400 can be operated via various ports on a redundant network and several SICLOCK TC 400 can be operated as servers on one network.

For further information, refer to Chapters Configuration Tool (Section 7) and

Parameter Table (Section 10).

Redundant control of time receivers (output redundancy)

Description

At least two SICLOCK TC 400 are used for an output redundancy. With the appropriate parameterization, OUTPUTs 1 and 2 of the two devices can each be connected redundantly with the other.

For further information, refer to Sections Redundant point-to-point connec- tions (Section 6.4.2) and OUTPUT 1 and 2 redundant (Section 9.2.4).

Operation Planning 4

4.1 Overview of operation planning

SICLOCK TC 400 has been designed for weather-protected, stationary operation in an industrial environment.

The operating conditions surpass the requirements according to DIN IEC 607213-3:

• Class 3M3 (mechanical requirements)

• Class 3K3 (climatic requirements)

General information about operation

Caution

The device is approved for operation in closed rooms only. The guarantee is void if this stipulation is ignored.

Condensation

When transporting the device at low temperatures, ensure that no moisture forms on or in the device. This also applies if the device is subjected to extreme changes in temperature.

Commissioning

Allow the device to slowly adjust to room temperature before commissioning. Do not place the device near heat radiation. With large differences in temperature, harmful condensation can be avoided by leaving the device in the transport packaging.

If condensation occurs, wait at least about 12 hours before you switch on the device (for 20° C temperature difference). The waiting period is extended accordingly for greater temperature differences.

Avoid extreme ambient conditions. Protect your device against dust, moisture and heat. For further information, see Chapter Technical Data (Section 13).

Do not place the device in direct sunlight.
