2 Basics and Assembly

2.1 Safety information for users

VIPA modules make use of highly integrated components in MOS­Technology. These components are extremely sensitive to over-vol­tages that can occur during electrostatic discharges. The following
symbol is attached to modules that can be destroyed by electrostatic
discharges.

The Symbol is located on the module, the module rack or on packing
material and it indicates the presence of electrostatic sensitive equip­ment. It is possible that electrostatic sensitive equipment is destroyed
by energies and voltages that are far less than the human threshold
of perception. These voltages can occur where persons do not dis­charge themselves before handling electrostatic sensitive modules
and they can damage components thereby, causing the module to
become inoperable or unusable. Modules that have been damaged
by electrostatic discharges can fail after a temperature change,
mechanical shock or changes in the electrical load. Only the conse­quent implementation of protection devices and meticulous attention
to the applicable rules and regulations for handling the respective
equipment can prevent failures of electrostatic sensitive modules.

Modules must be shipped in the original packing material.

When you are conducting measurements on electrostatic sensitive
modules you should take the following precautions:

n Floating instruments must be discharged before use.
n Instruments must be grounded.

Modifying electrostatic sensitive modules you should only use sol­dering irons with grounded tips.

CAUTION!

Personnel and instruments should be grounded when
working on electrostatic sensitive modules.

2.2 System conception

System SLIO is a modular automation system for assembly on a
35mm mounting rail. By means of the peripheral modules with 2, 4 or
8 channels this system may properly be adapted matching to your
automation tasks. The wiring complexity is low, because the supply of
the DC 24V power section is integrated to the backplane bus and
defective modules may be replaced with standing wiring. By deploy­ment of the power modules in contrasting colours within the system,
further isolated areas may be defined for the DC 24V power section
supply, respectively the electronic power supply may be extended
with 2A.

n CPU (head module)
n Bus coupler (head module)
n Periphery modules
n Power modules
n Accessories

CAUTION!

Only modules of VIPA may be combined. A mixed opera­tion with third-party modules is not allowed!

With a CPU, CPU electronic and power module are integrated to one
casing. As head module via the integrated power module for power
supply the CPU electronic is supplied as well as the electronic of the
connected periphery modules. The DC 24 power section supply for
the linked periphery modules is established via a further connection at
the power module. By installing of up to 64 periphery modules at the
CPU, these are electrically connected, this means these are assigned
to the backplane bus, the electronic modules are power supplied and
each periphery module is connected to the DC 24V power section
supply.

CAUTION!

CPU part and power module of a CPU may not be sepa­rated! Here you may only exchange the electronic module!

With a bus coupler bus interface and power module are integrated to
one casing. With the bus interface you get access to a subordinated
bus system. As head module via the integrated power module for
power supply the bus interface is supplied as well as the electronic of
the connected periphery modules. The DC 24 power section supply
for the linked periphery modules is established via a further connec­tion at the power module. By installing of up to 64 periphery modules
at the bus coupler, these are electrically connected, this means these
are assigned to the backplane bus, the electronic modules are power
supplied and each periphery module is connected to the DC 24V
power section supply.

CAUTION!

Bus interface and power module of the bus coupler may
not be separated! Here you may only exchange the elec­tronic module!

Each periphery module consists of a terminal and an electronic
module.

1 Terminal module
2 Electronic module

The terminal module serves to carry the electronic module, contains
the backplane bus with power supply for the electronic, the DC 24V
power section supply and the staircase-shaped terminal for wiring.
Additionally the terminal module has a locking system for fixing at a
mounting rail. By means of this locking system your SLIO system may
be assembled outside of your switchgear cabinet to be later mounted
there as whole system.

System conception

HB300 | FM | 050-1BA00 | GB | 14-36 10

The functionality of a SLIO periphery module is defined by the elec­tronic module, which is mounted to the terminal module by a safe

sliding mechanism. With an error the defective module may be
exchanged for a functional module with standing installation.

At the front side there are LEDs for status indication. For simple
wiring each module shows a corresponding connection diagram at
the front and at the side.

In the System SLIO the power supply is established by power mod­ules. These are either integrated to the bus coupler or may be
installed between the periphery modules. Depending on the power
module isolated areas of the DC 24V power section supply may be
defined respectively the electronic power supply may be extended
with 2A. For better recognition the colour of the power modules are
contrasting to the periphery modules.

The shield bus carrier (order no. 000-0AB00) serves to carry the
shield bus (10mm x 3mm) to connect cable shields. Shield bus car­riers, shield bus and shield fixings are not in the scope of delivery.
They are only available as accessories.

The shield bus carrier is mounted underneath the terminal of the ter­minal module. With a flat mounting rail for adaption to a flat mounting
rail you may remove the spacer of the shield bus carrier.

With each bus coupler, to protect the backplane bus connectors,
there is a mounted bus cover in the scope of delivery. You have to
remove the bus cover of the bus coupler before mounting a SLIO
module. For the protection of the backplane bus connector you
always have to mount the bus cover at the last module of your system
again.

The bus cover has the order no. 000-0AA00.

There is the possibility to fix the assignment of electronic and terminal
module. Here coding pins (order number 000-0AC00) from VIPA can
be used.

The coding pin consists of a coding jack and a coding plug. By com­bining electronic and terminal module with coding pin, the coding jack
remains in the electronic module and the coding plug in the terminal
module.

This ensures that after replacing the electronics module just another
electronic module can be plugged with the same encoding.

2.4 Installation

There is a locking lever at the top side of the terminal module. For
mounting and demounting this locking lever is to be turned upwards
until this engages audible. Now the module may be pulled forward.
For mounting plug the module to the module installed before and
push the module to the mounting rail guided by the strips at the upper
and lower side of the module. The module is fixed to the mounting rail
by pushing downward the locking lever. The modules may either sep­arately be mounted to the mounting rail or as block. Here is to be con­sidered that each locking lever is opened.

For the exchange of a electronic module, the electronic module may
be pulled forward after pressing the unlocking lever at the lower side
of the module. For installation plug the electronic module guided by
the strips at the lower side until this engages audible to the terminal
module.

There is the possibility to fix the assignment of electronic and terminal
module. Here coding pins (order number 000-0AC00) from VIPA can
be used. The coding pin consists of a coding jack and a coding plug.
By combining electronic and terminal module with coding pin, the
coding jack remains in the electronic module and the coding plug in
the terminal module. This ensures that after replacing the electronics
module just another electronic module can be plugged with the same
encoding.

Each electronic module has on its back 2 coding sockets for coding
jacks. Due to the characteristics, with the coding jack 6 different posi­tions can be plugged, each. Thus there are 36 possible combinations
for coding with the use of both coding sockets.

1. Plug, according to your coding, 2 coding jacks in the coding
sockets of your electronic module until they lock.

2. Now plug the according coding plugs into the coding jacks.

3. To fix the coding put both the electronic and terminal module

together until they lock.

HB300 | FM | 050-1BA00 | GB | 14-36 14

CAUTION!

Please consider that when replacing an already coded
electronic module, this is always be replaced by an elec­tronic module with the same coding.

Even with an existing coding on the terminal module, you
can plug an electronic module without coding. The user is
responsible for the correct usage of the coding pins. VIPA
assumes no liability for incorrectly attached electronic
modules or for damages which arise due to incorrect
coding!

The modules were directly be mounted to the mounting rail and so
connected to the backplane bus and the power supply for the elec­tronic and power section. Up to 64 modules may be mounted. Please
consider here that the sum current of the electronic power supply
does not exceed the maximum value of 3A. By means of the power
module 007-1AB10 the current of the electronic power supply may be
expanded with 2A. Ä Chapter 2.6 ‘Wiring’ on page 22

Mounting rail

Mount the mounting rail! Please consider that a clearance from
the middle of the mounting rail of at least 80mm above and
60mm below, respectively 80mm by deployment of shield bus
carriers, exist.

n The power section supply is to be externally protected with a fuse,

which corresponds to the maximum current. This means max. 10A
is to be protected with a 10A fuse (fast) respectively by a line cir­cuit breaker 10A characteristics Z!

n It is recommended to externally protect the electronic power

supply for bus coupler and I/O area with a 2A fuse (fast) respec­tively by a line circuit breaker 2A characteristics Z.

n The electronic power supply for the I/O area of the power module

007-1AB10 should also be externally protected with a 1A fuse
(fast) respectively by a line circuit breaker 1A characteristics Z.

After PowerON of the System SLIO the LEDs RUN respectively MF
get on so far as the sum current does not exceed 3A.

With a sum current greater than 3A the LEDs may not be activated.
Here the power module with the order number 007-1AB10 is to be

placed between the peripheral modules.

If the 10A for the power section supply is no longer sufficient, you
may use the power module from VIPA with the order number
007-1AB00. So you have also the possibility to define isolated
groups.

The power module with the order number 007-1AB10 is to be used if
the 3A for the electronic power supply at the backplane bus is no
longer sufficient. Additionally you get an isolated group for the DC
24V power section supply with 4A.

By placing the power module 007-1AB10 at the following backplane
bus modules may be placed with a sum current of max. 2A. After­wards the power module 007-1AB10 is to be placed again. To secure

Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) means the ability of an electrical
device, to function error free in an electromagnetic environment
without being interfered respectively without interfering the environ­ment.

The components of VIPA are developed for the deployment in indus­trial environments and meets high demands on the EMC. Neverthe­less you should project an EMC planning before installing the compo­nents and take conceivable interference causes into account.

Electromagnetic interferences may interfere your control via different
ways:

n Electromagnetic fields (RF coupling)
n Magnetic fields with power frequency
n Bus system
n Power supply
n Protected earth conductor

Depending on the spreading medium (lead bound or lead free) and
the distance to the interference cause, interferences to your control
occur by means of different coupling mechanisms.

There are:

n galvanic coupling
n capacitive coupling
n inductive coupling
n radiant coupling

In the most times it is enough to take care of some elementary rules
to guarantee the EMC. Please regard the following basic rules when
installing your PLC.

n Take care of a correct area-wide grounding of the inactive metal

parts when installing your components.
– Install a central connection between the ground and the pro-

tected earth conductor system.
– Connect all inactive metal extensive and impedance-low.
– Please try not to use aluminium parts. Aluminium is easily oxi-

dizing and is therefore less suitable for grounding.

n When cabling, take care of the correct line routing.

– Organize your cabling in line groups (high voltage, current

supply, signal and data lines).
– Always lay your high voltage lines and signal respectively data

lines in separate channels or bundles.
– Route the signal and data lines as near as possible beside

ground areas (e.g. suspension bars, metal rails, tin cabinet).

n Proof the correct fixing of the lead isolation.

– Data lines must be laid isolated.
– Analog lines must be laid isolated. When transmitting signals

with small amplitudes the one sided laying of the isolation may

be favourable.
– Lay the line isolation extensively on an isolation/protected

earth conductor rail directly after the cabinet entry and fix the

isolation with cable clamps.
– Make sure that the isolation/protected earth conductor rail is

connected impedance-low with the cabinet.
– Use metallic or metallised plug cases for isolated data lines.

Installation guidelines

HB300 | FM | 050-1BA00 | GB | 14-36 27

n In special use cases you should appoint special EMC actions.

– Consider to wire all inductivities with erase links.
– Please consider luminescent lamps can influence signal lines.

n Create a homogeneous reference potential and ground all elec-

trical operating supplies when possible.
– Please take care for the targeted employment of the grounding

actions. The grounding of the PLC serves for protection and

functionality activity.
– Connect installation parts and cabinets with your PLC in star

topology with the isolation/protected earth conductor system.

So you avoid ground loops.
– If there are potential differences between installation parts and

cabinets, lay sufficiently dimensioned potential compensation

lines.

Electrical, magnetically and electromagnetic interference fields are
weakened by means of an isolation, one talks of absorption. Via the
isolation rail, that is connected conductive with the rack, interference
currents are shunt via cable isolation to the ground. Here you have to
make sure, that the connection to the protected earth conductor is
impedance-low, because otherwise the interference currents may
appear as interference cause.

When isolating cables you have to regard the following:

n If possible, use only cables with isolation tangle.
n The hiding power of the isolation should be higher than 80%.
n Normally you should always lay the isolation of cables on both

sides. Only by means of the both-sided connection of the isolation
you achieve high quality interference suppression in the higher
frequency area. Only as exception you may also lay the isolation
one-sided. Then you only achieve the absorption of the lower fre­quencies. A one-sided isolation connection may be convenient, if:

– the conduction of a potential compensating line is not possible.
– analog signals (some mV respectively µA) are transferred.
– foil isolations (static isolations) are used.

n With data lines always use metallic or metallised plugs for serial

couplings. Fix the isolation of the data line at the plug rack. Do not
lay the isolation on the PIN 1 of the plug bar!

n At stationary operation it is convenient to strip the insulated cable

interruption free and lay it on the isolation/protected earth con­ductor line.

n To fix the isolation tangles use cable clamps out of metal. The

clamps must clasp the isolation extensively and have well contact.

n Lay the isolation on an isolation rail directly after the entry of the

cable in the cabinet. Lead the isolation further on to your PLC and
don't lay it on there again!

CAUTION!
Please regard at installation!

At potential differences between the grounding points,
there may be a compensation current via the isolation con­nected at both sides.

Remedy: Potential compensation line

n With activated HW gate activate a high level at gate the HW gate.

The counter may only start when HW gate and SW gate are set.

n With gate function "abort" counting begins again at the load value.

With "interrupt" counting is continued with the count.

You may set an upper and a lower limit by setting a load value as
start and an end value.

The hysteresis serves the avoidance of many toggle processes of the
output and/or the interrupt, if the counter value is in the range of the
comparison value. You may set a range of 0 to 255. The settings 0
and 1 deactivate the hysteresis. The hysteresis influences zero run,
comparison, over- and underflow.

The pulse duration tells for what time the output is set when the para­meterized comparison criterion is reached. The pulse duration can be
set in steps of 2.048ms between 0 and 522.24ms. If the pulse dura-
tion = 0, the output is set active until the comparison condition is not
longer fulfilled.

4.4 Counter - Functions

You may count forward and backwards and choose between the fol­lowing counter functions:

n Count endless, e.g. distance measuring with incremental encoder
n Count once, e.g. count to a maximum limit
n Count periodic, e.g. count with repeated counter process

In the operating modes "Count once" and "Count periodic" you may
define a counter range as start and end value via the parameteriza­tion. For every counter additional parameterizable functions are avail­able like gate function, comparison, hysteresis and process interrupt.

Via the parameterization you have the opportunity to define a main
counting direction for every counter. If "none" is chosen, the complete
counting range is available:

Limits Valid value range

-2 147 483 648 (-231)

Upper count limit

[phone] (231-1)

Main counting direction forward
Upper restriction of the count range. The counter counts 0 res. load

value in positive direction until the parameterized end value -1 and

jumps then back to the load value with the next following encoder
pulse.

Main counting direction backwards

Lower restriction of the count range. The counter counts from the par­ameterized start- res. load value in negative direction to the parame­terized end value +1 and jumps then back to the start value with the
next following encoder pulse.

If the HW gate is enabled, only the HW gate may be influenced by the
gate functions. An opening and closing of the SW gate only interrupts
the count process.

Abort count process

The count process starts after closing and restart of the gate begin­ning with the load value.

Interrupt count process

The count process continuous after closing and restart of the gate
beginning with the last recent counter value.

In this operating mode, the counter counts from the load value. When
the counter counts forward and reaches the upper count limit and
another counting pulse in positive direction arrives, it jumps to the
lower count limit and counts from there on. When the counter counts
backwards and reaches the lower count limit and another counting
pulse in negative direction arrives, it jumps to the upper count limit
and counts from there on. The count limits are set to the maximum
count range.

RES_STS. If enabled additionally a process interrupt is triggered.

closed and the status bits STS_OFLW respectively STS_UFLW

gate.

4.5 Counter additional functions

The following additional functions may be set for the counter via the
parameterization of the 050-1BA00:

n Gate function:

– The gate function serves for the start, stop and interrupt of a

count function.

n Latch function:

– An edge 0-1 at the digital input "Latch" stores the recent

counter value in the latch register.

n Comparison:

– You may set a comparison value that activates res. de-acti-

vates the digital output res. releases a process interrupt

depending on the counter value.

n Hysteresis:

– The setting of a hysteresis for example serves the avoidance

of many toggle processes of the output and/or the interrupt,

when the value of an encoder signal shifts around a compar-

ison value.

The illustration shows how the additional functions influence the
counting behavior. The following pages describe these functions in
detail:

Overview

Counter additional functions

HB300 | FM | 050-1BA00 | GB | 14-36 51

The activation res. de-activation of the counter happens via an
internal gate (I gate). The I gate is the AND operation of the software
gate (SW gate) and the hardware gate (HW gate). The SW gate is
opened (activated) via your user application by an edge 0-1 of the bit
SW_GATE_SET of CCTRL_I in the output area. The software gate is
closed (de-activated) by an edge 0-1 of the bit SW_GATE_RESET.
The HW gate is controlled via the concerning "Gate" input. The
parameterization allows you to de-activate the consideration of the
HW gate so that the counter activation can take place only via the SW
gate. The following states influence the I gate:

SW gate HW gate influences

I gate

0 with edge 0-1 0

1 with edge 0-1 1

with edge 0-1 1 1

with edge 0-1 0 0

with edge 0-1 de-activated 1

Gate function abort and interrupt

The parameterization defines if the gate interrupts or aborts the
counter process.

n At abort function the counter starts counting with the load value

after gate restart.

As soon as during a count process an edge 0-1 is recognized at the
"Latch" input of the counter, the recent counter value is stored in the
latch register. You may access the latch register via the input area.
After a STOP-RUN transition latch is always 0.

The compare value is to be pre-defined by CC_I. As soon as a com­parison condition is kept, the bit STS_DO of the counter status is set.
Please consider that the bit STS_DO may only be influenced when in
the counter status the bit STS_CTRL_DO is set. You pre-define the
behavior of the counter output via the parameterization (MODE2_I):

n output never switches
n output switches when counter value ³ comparison value
n output switches when counter value £ comparison value
n output switches at comparison value

Output never switches

The output never switches.

Output switches when counter value ³ comparison value

The output remains set as long as the counter value is higher or
equal comparison value.

Output switches when counter value

£

comparison value

The output remains set as long as the counter value is lower or equal
comparison value.

Pulse at comparison value

When the counter reaches the comparison value the output is set for
the parameterized pulse duration. If the pulse duration = 0 the output
is set until the comparison condition is no longer met. When you've
set a main counting direction the output is only set at reaching the

comparison value from the main counting direction.

The pulse duration defines how long the output is set. It may be
preset in steps of 2.048ms between 0 and 522.24ms. The pulse dura-
tion starts with the setting of the according digital output. The inac­curacy of the pulse duration is less than 2.048ms. There is no past
triggering of the pulse duration when the comparison value has been
left and reached again during pulse output.

The bit STS_DO is set together with the bit STS_CMP in
the counter status. In contrast to the bit STS_DO this bit
remains set as long as it is reset by setting the bit
RES_SET in the control word.

n The hysteresis serves the avoidance of many toggle processes of

the output and the interrupt, if the counter value is in the range of
the comparison value.

n For the hysteresis you may set a range of 0 to 255.
n The settings 0 and 1 deactivate the hysteresis.
n The hysteresis influences zero run, comparison, over- and under-

flow.

n An activated hysteresis remains active after a change. The new

hysteresis range is activated with the next hysteresis event.

The following pictures illustrate the output behavior for hysteresis 0
and hysteresis 3 for the according conditions:

1 Counter value ³ comparison value ® output is set and hysteresis

activated

2 Leave hysteresis range ® output is reset
3 Counter value ³ comparison value ® output is set and hysteresis

activated

4 Leave hysteresis range, output remains set for counter value ³

comparison value

5 counter value < comparison value and hysteresis active ® output

is reset

6 counter value ³ comparison value ® output is not set for hyste-

resis active

With reaching the comparison condition the hysteresis gets active. At
active hysteresis the comparison result remains unchanged until the

counter value leaves the set hysteresis range. After leaving the hyste­resis range a new hysteresis is only activated with again reaching the

comparison conditions.

1 Counter value = comparison value ® output is set and hysteresis

activated

2 Leave hysteresis range ® output is reset and counter value <

comparison value

3 Counter value = comparison value ® output is set and hysteresis

4 Output is reset for leaving hysteresis range and counter value >

5 Counter value = comparison value ® output is set and hysteresis

activated

6 Counter value = comparison value and hysteresis active ® output

remains set

7 Leave hysteresis range and counter value > comparison value ®

output is reset

With reaching the comparison condition the hysteresis gets active. At
active hysteresis the comparison result remains unchanged until the

counter value leaves the set hysteresis range. After leaving the hyste­resis range a new hysteresis is only activated with again reaching the

comparison conditions.

2 Leaving the hysteresis range contrary to the stored counting direc-

tion ® pulse of the parameterized pulse duration is put out, the

3 Counter value = comparison value ® pulse of the parameterized

pulse duration is put out, the hysteresis is activated and the
counting direction stored

4 Leaving the hysteresis range without changing counting direction

® hysteresis is de-activated

5 Counter value = comparison value ® pulse of the parameterized

pulse duration is put out, the hysteresis is activated and the
counting direction stored

6 Counter value = comparison value and hysteresis active ® no

pulse

7 Leaving the hysteresis range contrary to the stored counting direc-

tion ® pulse of the parameterized pulse duration is put out, the
hysteresis is de-activated

With reaching the comparison condition the hysteresis gets active
and a pulse of the parameterized duration is put out. As long as the
counter value is within the hysteresis range, no other pulse is put out.
With activating the hysteresis the counting direction is stored in the
module. If the counter value leaves the hysteresis range contrary to
the stored counting direction, a pulse of the parameterized duration is
put out. Leaving the hysteresis range without direction change, no
pulse is put out.

So you may react to asynchronous events, there is the possibility to
activate a process interrupt. A process interrupt interrupts the linear
program sequence and jumps depending on the master system to a
corresponding Interrupt routine. Here you can react to the process
interrupt accordingly.

With CANopen the process interrupt data are transferred via an emer­gency telegram. Operating with CPU, PROFIBUS and PROFINET the
process interrupt data were transferred via diagnostics telegram.
