1.2 I/O Wiring

APAX-5000 I/O modules leverage detachable clamp type terminal blocks. Comparing with traditional screw type terminal blocks, clamp type terminal blocks can save up to 75% wiring time and provide better reliability for shock and vibration. Follow the procedures below for wiring your APAX-5000 I/O module.

1. Insert the screw driver into the left hole of the terminal.
2. Insert the wiring into the right hole of the terminal.

Note! Please use # 14 AWG \~ 28 AWG wire for terminal block.

1.3 Removing the I/O Terminal

APAX-5000 I/O modules provide detachable terminal blocks that are convenient when wiring needs to be changed, because the terminal block can removed and the module doesn't need to be. Refer to the figures below to remove the terminal block.

Warning!

APAX-5000 I/O modules can be categorized into four categories: AI, AO, DI and DO. If you insert a terminal block into a module which has a different function, it might damage the modules (for example, inserting a DO terminal block on DI module). In order to prevent this, APAX-5000 modules color the terminal block and label on the front side. Remember to match the terminal block with the module as below.

Function Color
Analog Input Green
Analog Output Blue
Digital Input Yellow
Digital Output Red

1.4 Labeling the Terminal

Advantech provides write-on labels for each APAX-5000 I/O module. This write-on label has two sides, one with the model name, specifications and a wiring diagram, while the other side allows users to write information in by themselves. Refer to the figures below for the write-on label details.

1.5 Jumper Settings

Some I/O modules need to be configured manually through the onboard jumpers. This section will show you how to adjust the jumper settings.

1. Pull out the write-on label and you can see the location of the jumper.
2. You can use the screw driver to adjust the jumper setting.
3. Once the jumper setting is done, slide the write-on label back to its position.

1.6 ID Switch Setting

The controller identifies each APAX-5000 I/O module through the ID number. Therefore, you need to set ID number for each I/O module by the rotary ID switch on the front side. Rotate that ID switch and point the hole on the central axis to corresponding ID number ("0" \~ "F"). Refer to figures below for the location of the rotary ID switch and how to set the ID number by the rotary ID switch.

Note!

APAX supports locate functionality. It means the selected APAX I/O module will flash its LED to let you identify through Apax/Adam utility. Refer to related APAX controller or coupler software manual for how to operate it.

The ID for I/O module is "D"

The ID for I/O module is "4"

From the figures above, you can choose ID number 0 \~ 15 from the rotary ID switch ("0" \~ "F"). Therefore, the maximum number for analog module in one system is 16. For digital modules, there is another ID switch on the PCB that it can double the available ID number. Thus, the maximum number for digital module in one system is 32.

You can distinguish if the ID number is doubled by the front LED. When the LED color is green, only 0 \~ 15 ID number is used (0 \~ 15 according to the rotary ID switch). Once the LED color is orange, the ID number is doubled (16\~31 according to the rotary ID switch). Refer to figure below for its location and how to configure it.

DIP Switch Setting ID LED Color
	16 ~ 31 according to the rotary ID swich	Orange
	0 ~ 15 according to the rotary ID swich	Green

Warning!

Avoid two modules with the same ID number in the same system, or you cannot see the module in the software utility. The LED on the front side will flash four times if two or more modules have the same ID number in one system. If this happens, simply change the ID number for these conflicted modules and all of them can be found in utility again.

1.7 Mechanical Assembly and Power Connection

1.7.1 Wiring Power Input to the Backplane

There are two ways that APAX-5000 I/O mdoules can be powered. One is to connect the DC power supply wire directly to the power connector on the backplane. Another way is using APAX-5343E power supply module.

When you wire the power supply to the backplane, the power is transferred between backplanes, and provides to all APAX-5000 I/O modules inserted on the backplanes. Refer to figures below for how to wiring the power to the backplane, and how to assembly APAX-5000 I/O modules with backplanes:

1. Connect the power supply wire to the power connectors on the 2-slot APAX-5002 backplane module.

Warning! If you use APAX-5000 digital modules in the same system, use different power supplies for the system and the the digital channels on the modules to ensure isolation protection between digital channels and system.

1. Insert one APAX-5000 I/O module on that APAX-5002 backplane module.

1. Lock that APAX-5000 I/O module to the APAX-5002 backplane by pulling down the module locks.

1. Insert another APAX-5000 I/O module on the same APAX-5002 backplane. Use tongue-and-groove slots to move the module.

1. Lock that APAX-5000 I/O module to the APAX-5002 backplane by pulling down the module locks.

1. If you need more than one APAX-5000 I/O module, stack another APAX-5002 backplane to the original APAX-5002 backplane.

Warning!

When you assembly different backplanes together, remember to turn off the power connected to the backplane. If not, the backplanes may be damaged. Turn on the power again after you complete the assembly for all backplanes.

1. Lock the stacked APAX-5002 backplane to the original APAX-5002 backplane by the backplane locks.

Note!

If you want to provide more power to the system, you can connect another power supply wire to the power connections on the second APAX-5002 backplane. (The wiring procedure is the same as step 1)

1. Insert another APAX-5000 I/O module on the second APAX-5002 backplane.

1. Lock that APAX-5000 I/O module to the second APAX-5002 backplane by pull down the module locks, similar as step 5.
2. If needed, repeat step 8 \~ 9 to have another APAX-5000 I/O module on the same APAX-5002 backplane.

If you need more APAX-5000 I/O module, repeat Step 6 \~ Step 10 until all necessary APAX-5000 I/O modules are inserted on the backplanes.

When the total number of APAX-5520 and APAX-5000 I/O modules is odd, you can use 1-slot APAX-5001 backplane module as the last backplane in the system.

1.7.2 Using the APAX-5343E Power Supply Module

APAX-5000 I/O modules can also be powered by the APAX-5343E power supply module, connected to the left side of the whole system. The power can be transferred to APAX-5000 I/O modules though the backplanes.

Note!Refer to Chapter 5 for APAX-5343E specifications.

1. Follow the procedure described in Section 1.7.1 to assembly APAX-5000 I/O modules into one complete system. The only difference is that you don't need to connect the power supply wiring to the power connectors on the backplane (step 1 in Section 1.7.1).

2. Pull up the module locks on the upper case of one APAX-5343E. Then you can separate the upper case of APAX-5343E from its backplane.

1. Stack the backplane of APAX-5343E to the left side of the first APAX-5002 backplane in the system.

1. Lock the stacked APAX-5343E backplane with the APAX-5002 backplane by the backplane locks on the APAX-5002 backplane.

1. Insert the upper case of APAX-5343E back to its backplane. Use tongue-and-groove slots to move the upper case.

1. Lock the upper case of APAX-5343E to its backplane by pulling down the module locks on the upper case. Connect AC power code to the power connectors on the upper case of APAX-5343E. Then the whole system is powered-on.

1.8 Decommission and Disposal

APAX-5000 I/O modules support hot-swap functionality. It means the I/O module can be removed from the backplane or inserted on the backplane when the complete system is power-on. This can significantly help to make it more convenient for system maintenance. Changing one module won't affect operation of other modules. The hot-swap functionality is implemented by the module locks. Refer to figure below for how to dismantle APAX-5000 I/O modules:

1. Pull up the two module locks on side of APAX-5000 I/O modules first. This action disconnects the power between the I/O module and backplane.

Note!If you only want to remove one module, the procedure is similar. (Pull up the module locks and then remove the module without shutting down the power)

1. Detach APAX-5000 I/O module from the backplane.

Repeat Step 1 \~ Step 2 for all the APAX-5000 I/O modules you want to remove.

It is the similar when you insert APAX-5000 I/O modules back to the backplane. First, insert APAX-5000 I/O module to backplane. Then, pull down the two module locks to lock on the backplane, and APAX-5000 I/O module will be power-on and can be used.

The device must be fully dismantled in order to dispose of it. Electronic parts must be disposed of in accordance with national electronics scrap regulations.

1.9 Mounting

1.9.1 DIN-rail Mounting

APAX-5000 I/O module can be mounted through backplane to the following DIN rails: 35 x 7.5 mm or 35 x 15 mm. Below are the procedures for the DIN rails mounting.

1. Pull down the DIN rail lock at the back of APAX-5002 backplane.

1. Attach the APAX-5002 backplane on the DIN rail.

1. Repeat Step 1 \~ Step 2 until necessary APAX-5002 backplanes are all attached on the DIN rail.

Note!

When the total number of APAX-5520 and APAX-5000 I/O modules is odd, you can use APAX-5001 (1-slot backplane) as the last backplane in the system. And the procedure to attach APAX-5001 on the DIN rail is similar as APAX-5002.

1. Move all backplanes to stack them together. Then slide the backplane locks on the backplanes to fasten all backplanes. (Similar to Step 6 and 7 in section 1.7.1)

2. Slide the DIN rail lock of all backplanes into the position, to fix all backplanes to the DIN rail.

1. Insert all necessary APAX-5000 I/O modules to the backplanes. (Similar to Step 2, Step 4 and Step 8 in section 1.7.1)

2. Slide the module lock of those APAX-5000 I/O modules into the position, to fix these modules to related backplanes. (Similar to Step 3, Step 5 and Step 9 in section 1.7.1)

1.9.2 Wall (Panel) Mounting

Mount the APAX-5000 I/O module to a wall (panel) through backplane using two screws per module. Use M4 or #8 panhead screws. Refer to figure below for the dimensional template:

Below are the procedures for the wall (panel) mounting:

1. Pull down the DIN-rail lock at the back of the first APAX-5002 backplane.

1. Hang the APAX-5002 backplane onto the screw on the wall (panel). The screw for APAX-5002 to hang should be special-designed. We have provided it in accessory. (Diameter: 9 mm, length: 16 mm, height of head: 2.7 mm)

1. Mount the first APAX-5002 backplane to the wall (panel) using two standard M4 or #8 panhead screws. We also provide the two screws in accessory. (Diameter: 7 mm, length: 8 mm, height of head: 2.6 mm)

1. Stack Another APAX-5002 backplane to original backplane. Lock the two backplanes together.

1. Mount the second APAX-5002 backplane to the wall (panel) using two standard M4 or #8 panhead screws.

1. Repeat Step 4 \~ Step 5 until all necessary APAX-5002 backplane are screwed on the wall (panel).

Note!

When the total number of APAX-5000 I/O modules is odd, you can use APAX-5001 (1-slot backplane) as the last backplane in the system. The procedure to attach APAX-5001 on the wall is similar as APAX-5002.

1. Insert all necessary APAX-5000 I/O modules to the backplanes. (Similar to Step 2, Step 4 and Step 8 in section 1.7.1)
2. Lock APAX-5520 and all necessary APAX-5000 I/O module to the backplane by pull down the buckle. (Similar to Step 3, Step 5 and Step 9 in section 1.7.1)

Warning! In order to have better ventilation remember to align the APAX-5000 I/O modules as follows:

We suggest remaining enough clearance space from enclosure walls and adjacent equipments. Allow 50 mm (2 in.) of space on all sides, as shown below. This provide ventilation and makes assembly more easily.

3.1.4 APAX-5040PE 24-ch Digital Input Module for P&E Applications

The APAX-5040PE features 24 digital input (sink/source) channels. The APAX-5040PE module's digital input channels can accept a 2-wiring input from a DC voltage source, to determine the state of limits, standard switches or proximity switches. The digital input channels offer LED to indicate digital status. This module is an IEC-61850-3 compliant I/O modules, and suitable for power and energy related application. The highly anti-electromagnetic interference make it more robust and reliable to survive in the hush environment. The module provides 2500 VDC optical isolation between channels and backplane bus. If any high voltage or current damage the channels, the whole system (backplanes, other modules, and control unit) won't be affected because it is already isolated.

Warning! Please use different power supply modules for digital channels and system to ensure isolation effect.

APAX-5080 Counter Mode No Gate No Alarm

There are so many counter modes in APAX-5080 and below will use counter0 as an example to explain every counter mode operation principle.

Below are the definitions of counter mode.

■ Pulse/DIR: Ch0_A provides the counting function, one pulse, one count, and Ch0_B provides the clockwise and counter clockwise function.
Up/Down: CH0_A provides the counter up function, one pulse one up count, and CH0_A provides the counter down function, one pulse one down count.
■ UP: CH0_A provides the counter up function, one pulse one up count.
A/B Phase 1X: counter mode A/B Phase x 1--If the signal "A" leads "B" by a rising or falling edge, then the number of steps will be added by one, and vice versa.
A/B Phase 2X: counter mode A/B Phase x 2
A/B Phase 4X: counter mode A/B Phase x 4
■ With Reload: When the counter0 value is overflow, the value will be reset to the initial value.
No Reload: If the counter0 value is overflow, the value will be 0. If the counter0 value is overflow, the value will be the max value.
Count Once: It means if the counter0 is overflow, it won't count again.
Count Repetitively: when counter value is overflow or underflow, it will reset to the default value and continuous to count.
Frequency: CH0_A provides the frequency function from 0.1Hz\~1MHz.

DO Alarm Function No Gate

■ High Pulse: the DO original status will be low and when the counter value counts to defined alarm value, the DO status will change low to high.
Low Pulse: the DO original status will be high and when the counter value counts to defined alarm value, the DO status will change high to low.
No Auto Reload: When the counter is overflow or underflow, the value will be reset to the initial value but not count again.
■ Auto Reload: When the counter is overflow or underflow, the value will be reset to the initial value and count again.
■ High Alarm: when the counter value is greater than the assigned counter alarm value, the DO will be active.
Low Alarm: When the counter value is less than the assigned counter alarm value, the DO will be active.

Because the DI gate is disabled, whatever the DI value is, the counter still continuously counts. When the counter0 value is overflow, the value will be reset to the initial value like 0x33. Count once means if the counter0 is overflow, it won't count again.

Backplane Modules

5.1 APAX-5002/5002L 2-slot Backplane Module

APAX-5002/5002L is an interface between CPU module, coupler and I/O modules. Different APAX-5002/5002L can be stacked together. Power and data can be transferred to I/O modules inserted on the APAX-5002/5002L. You can use external power supply or APAX-5343E power supply module to give power to the backplanes and I/O modules. But only APAX-5002 equips the screw terminal for the external power supply wiring. Refer to Section 1.7.1 and 1.7.2 for the operation procedure.

There is an expansion port on front side of APAX-5002 (APAX-5002L is not equipped with this feature). With this port, users can build a remote expansion architecture, remaining fast local-bus data transmission speed. Standard Ethernet cables can be used to connect any two APAX-5002. However, shielded industrial Ethernet cable MUST be used instead of standard Ethernet cable when the system is used in harsh environment, such as factory automation. Unmanaged industrial Ethernet switches (such as Advantech EKI-2528) with 100 Mbps transmission speed can also be used between two APAX-5002. Therefore, you can flexibly build any remote expansion with line, tree or star topology. All the APAX-5000 I/O modules can benefit from the remote expansion architecture with local bus speed.

Warning!1. DO NOT use managed switch, hub or router between backplanes for expansion.

1. The network for the expansion should be a local network, NOT to connect with other external network (such as public network in enterprise network, including Internet).
2. Cat 6 Ethernet cable is strongly recommended for better data transmission quality.
3. It is suggested to power on all the I/O modules together to avoid any unpredictable situation.

Error Handling and Diagnostics

6.1 Error Handling and Diagnostics

There is one power LED on the front panel of any APAX-5000 I/O module. When the module is power-on, the LED will be lit. For analog I/O module, the LED color is green. For digital I/O module, the LED color is green or orange, depending on the module ID number. Refer to Section 1.6 for more details. Except for showing the module power status and ID number, this LED is also designed to diagnose module status.

■ LED continues flashing one time every 2 seconds

Representation: The I/O modules has problem itself

Solution: 1. Download latest firmware again to see if it works well.

1. If the LED continues flashing after updating firmware, then you need to contact Advantech for technical support.

■ LED continues flashing 2 times every 2 seconds

Representation: The I/O modules has communication problem

Solution: 1. Check if the controller or coupler is installed and power-on.

1. If controller or coupler is installed, check if the Ethernet connection is broken when you have remote expansion.

2. If the networking is okay (or there is remote expansion in the system), check if any backplane is broken.

3. If backplanes are all fine, download latest firmware again to see if it works well.

4. If the LED continues flashing after updating firmware, then you need to contact Advantech for support.

■ LED continues flashing 4 times every 2 seconds

Representation: ID number of that I/O module conflicts with ID number of another I/O module

Solution: 1. Check ID number of all I/O modules in the same system.

Adjust the ID number to avoid different I/O modules with the same ID number. Refer to Section 1.6 for how to adjust ID number. Then reboot the system and it should work fine. (The LED should stop flashing)

1. If the LED continues flashing after you have adjusted the ID number, then you need to contact Advantech for technical support.
