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 elect r ostatic sensitive equipment.

It is possible that electrostatic sensitive equipm ent is destr oyed 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 f ail 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 regulat ions for handling the respective
equipment can prevent failures of electrostatic sensitive modules.

Modules must be shipped in the original packing mater ial.

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

• Floating instruments must be discharged before use.

• Instruments must be grounded.

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

Attention!

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

Wiring

Most peripheral modules are equipped with a 10pole or a 18pole connector.
This connector provides the electrical interf ace for the signaling and supply
lines of the modules.

The modules carry spring-clip connectors for interconnections and wiring.
The spring-clip connector technolog y simplifies the wiring requirements for

signaling and power cables.
In contrast to screw terminal connections, spring-clip wiring is vibration

proof. The assignment of the terminals is contained in the description of the
respective modules.

You may connect conductors with a diameter from 0.08mm

up to 2.5mm2

(max. 1.5mm

Installation guidelines

The installation guidelines contain information about the interference free
deployment of System 200V systems. There is the descript ion of the ways,
interference may occur in your control, how you can make sure the
electromagnetic digestibility (EMC), and how you manage the isolat ion.

Electromagnetic digestibilit y (EMC) means the ability of an electrical device,
to function error free in an electromagnetic environment without being
interferenced res. without interferencing the environment.

All System 200V components are developed for the deployment in hard
industrial environments and fulfill hig h demands on the EMC. Nevertheless
you should project an EMC planning before installing the components and
take conceivable interference causes into account.

Electromagnetic interf erences may interfere your control via diff er ent ways:

• Fields

• I/O signal conductors

• Bus system

• Current supply

• 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.

One differs:

• galvanic coupling

• capacitive coupling

• inductive coupling

• radiant coupling

HB97E - FM - RE_250-1BS00 - Rev. 14/44 1-15

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

• 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 protected

earth conductor system.

- Connect all inactive metal extensive and impedance-low.

- Please try not to use aluminum parts. Aluminum is easily oxidizing

and is therefore less suitable for grounding.

• When cabling, t ake care of the correct line rout ing.

- Organize your cabling in line groups (high voltage, current supply,

signal and data lines).

- Always lay your high voltage lines and signal res. 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 r ails, tin cabinet).

• Proof the correct f ixing 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
favorable.

- Lay the line isolation extensively on an isolation/protected earth con-

ductor 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 metalized plug cases for isolated data lines.

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

- Wire all inductivities with erase links.

- Please consider luminescent lamps can influence signal lines.

• Create a homogeneous reference potential and ground all electrical
operating supplies when possible.

- Please take care for the targeted employment of the grounding

actions. The grounding of the PLC is a protection and functionality
activity.

- Connect installation parts and cabinets with the System 200V in star

topology with the isolation/protected earth conductor system . So you
avoid ground loops.

- If potential dif ferences between installation parts and cabinets occur,

lay sufficiently dimensioned potential compensation lines.

Electrical, magnetically and electromagnetic interference fields are
weakened by means of an isolation, one talks of absor pt ion.

Via the isolation rail, that is connected conductive with the rack,
interference currents are shunt via cable isolation to the ground. Hereby
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 reg a r d t he following:

• If possible, use only cables with isolation tangle.

• The hiding power of the isolation should be higher than 80%.

• 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 res. µA) are transferred

- foil isolations (static isolations) are used.

• With data lines always use metallic or metalized 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 !

• At stationary operation it is convenient to strip the insulated cable
interruption free and lay it on the isolation/protected earth conductor line.

• To fix the isolation tangles use cable clamps out of metal. The clamps
must clasp the isolation extensively and have well contact.

• Lay the isolation on an isolation rail directly after the ent ry of the cable in
the cabinet. Lead the isolation further on to the System 200V module
and don't lay it on there again!

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.

Structure

SSI is the abbreviation for Synchronous Serial Interf ace. The SSI module
provides the connection for transducers with absolute coding and a SSI
module.

The module converts the serial information of the transducer into parallel
information for t he controller. Data can be transferred in gray or in binary
code.

The interface has connections for the SSI signals clock, data and the
transducer supply voltage as well as two additional outputs that may be set
or reset when a limit value is exceeded.

Output 0 can also be programmed as hold input. This causes the SSI
transducer value to be frozen when a 24V high level is applied to output 0.
A low level will cause the transducer to transmit the actual SSI values.

You can also configure the outputs that they will remain set if the BASP
signal is active.

The SSI module has a number of LEDs.
The following table explains the significance of these LEDs:

Name Color Description

L+ yellow Indicates that 24V power is available

C+ green ON when clock pulses are transmitted

OFF when hold function has been activated and 24V at I/O .0

D+ green ON when data is received from t he t r ansducer (wiring test)

.0 green ON when 24V power is available at I/O .0
.1 green ON when 24V power is available at O .1

F red ON when short circuit or overload is detected on one of the I/O .0 / O .1

The baudrate depends on the length of the communication line and on the
SSI transducer. W iring has to consist of screened twisted pair cables. The
specifications below are only intended as a guideline.

< 400m: → 100kBaud
< 100m: → 300kBaud

The SSI module has an internal power supply. This power supply requires
a voltage of DC 24V via L+ and M.

Functionality

SSI is the abbreviation for Synchronous Serial Interf ace. The SSI module
provides the connection for transducers with absolute coding and a SSI
module.

The module converts the serial information of the transducer into parallel
information for t he controller. Data can be transferred in gray or in binary
code.

The interface has connections for the SSI signals clock, data and the
transducer supply voltage as well as two additional outputs that may be set
or reset when a limit value is exceeded.

Output 0 can also be programmed as hold input. This causes the SSI
transducer value to be frozen when a 24V high level is applied to output 0.
A low level will cause the transducer to transmit the actual SSI values.

You can also configure the outputs that they will remain set if the BASP
signal is active.

Input data (Data In)

The input data f rom the SSI transducer has a leng th of 4Byte. Byte 0 can
be used as an Input/Output status indicator for the. Data is supplied in
binary or in gray code, depending on the selected mode.

Output data (Data Out)

Data Out provides the option of contro lling the 2 Output ports on the SSI
module depending on the value of a transducer input. Out put data consists
of 4Byte.

The SSI transducer stores 8Byte of output data, i.e. you may define two
comparative values along with the respective control byte.

In the control byte you are able to specify how the reference value should
affect which output. The status of the I/Os is signaled via the input bytes.

The following table shows the assignment of t hese out put bytes.

Byte Data Out

0 Bit 1 ... 0: set point value

00: no set point value

01: for Output 0

10: for Output 1

Configuration

4Byte of config uration data are transferred. In these bytes you define the
baud rate, the coding and the analysis of the combined I/O .0 as well as the
BASP signal.

The structure of the configuration data is as follows:

Byte Bit 7 ... 0

0 Bit 7 ... 0: reserved
1 Bit 7 ... 0: reserved

3 Bit 0: Coding

0: Binary code (default)
1: Gray code

0: Multi turn (24 bit)
1: reserved
Bit 4: Hold function
0: deactivate
1: activate
Bit 7: BASP signal
0: ignore
1: analyze

The transducer connected to the SSI channel transmits serial data. It
requires a clock pulse from the SSI module. The baud rate defines this
clock. You may choose a value of 100 or 300kBaud.
The default setting is 300kBaud.

The gray code is a different form of binary code. The principle of the gray
code is that two neighbor ing gray numbers will differ in exactly one single
bit.

When t he gr ay code is used, t ransmission errors can be detected easily as
neighboring characters may only be different in a single location.

Table of rules for the gray code:

Decimal Gray Code

0 0 0 0 0
1 0 0 0 1
2 0 0 1 1
3 0 0 1 0
4 0 1 1 0
5 0 1 1 1
6 0 1 0 1
7 0 1 0 0
8 1 1 0 0

9 1 1 0 1
10 1 1 1 1
11 1 1 1 0
12 1 0 1 0
13 1 0 1 1
14 1 0 0 1
15 1 0 0 0

I.e. the last digit of the number results from the vertical repetition of the
sequence "0 11 0", the penultimate digit results from the repetition "00 1111
00", the third-last number from the repetition of 4x"0", 8x"1" and again
4x"0", etc. (see columns in the table!).

Here you define that I/O .0 should be used as hold input. When you have
activated this function, the current transducer value will be stored when
I/O .0 is connected to 24V. The transducer value is only updated when the
24V level is removed from I/O .0.

In this case you have to be aware that I/O .0 operates only in input mode.

BASP is a German abbreviation for command output inhibited, i.e. all
outputs are reset and inhibited as long as the BASP sig nal is applied via
the backplane bus. You may disable the evaluation of the BASP sig nals by
setting this bit. This means t hat the outputs will remain set.
