Ethernet Status LEDs

- LED Module Status:

• LED Link to Ethernet:

Function and features

• The controller _e integrates one or two AS-i masters (AC1307/AC1317, both in accordance with the AS-i version 2.1), a mini controller and an Ethernet IP interface.
• It controls the exchange of data to the sensor / actuator level
• processes the peripheral data in the integrated processor (signal preprocessing)
• works as stand-alone controller with exchange of data to the PC (visualisation)
• communicates with the higher control level (in the gateway mode) (Ethernet / IP, Modbus /TCP)

Programming interface RS232C

• Baud rate 4800 to 115,200 baud
- Max. distance between controller e and host: 20m
- Potential separation from the controller e power supply
- Programming cable E70320 for connection to host required

Ethernet interface

• Ethernet / IP 10Mbps and 100Mbps
• TCP/IP - Transport Control Protocol/ Internet Protocol
  • UDP - User Datagram Protocol
• IT functionality: file system, FTP server, Telnet server, HTTP server, E-mail client
• RJ45, Twisted-Pair

Installation

Fix the controller _e onto a 35mm rail. The protection rating of the unit is IP20, therefore it should be mounted in a protected location (e.g. control cabinet).

Ensure a condensation-free environment. Avoid excessive dust, vibration and shock. The air circulation through the vents must not be impeded.

Avoid installation in direct vicinity of frequency inverters.

Electrical connection

Disconnect the installation from power. Connect the unit as indicated on the terminals. Never connect the minus potentials to each other or the minus potentials to the FE connection. Ensure an electrically save ground connection between AS-i controller (terminal FE) and ground of the unit.

e

Supply the controller _e with a 24V DC voltage (20 ... 30V PELV), e.g. from the 24V power supply DN2011 of ifm electronic. The connection is made to the terminals +24V and 0V.

Operating and indicating elements

Information concerning the state of the master (AC1307)/masters/AC1317) and the connected system is given via three diagnostic LEDs on the controller _e .

• LED PWR/COM lights: AS-i voltage present, at least one slave was detected
  • LED PWR/COM flashes: AS-i voltage present, but no slave was detected correctly
  • LED PROJ lights: Projection mode active, the configuration monitoring is deactivated
• LED PROJ flashes: Projection mode active, changeover to protected mode not possible as a slave with the address 0 is connected
  • LED CONF/PF lights: Projected and current configuration do not match
  • LED CONF/PF flashes: Periphery fault on at least one connected slave

Ethernet Status LEDs

• LED Module Status:

green flashes 1Hz: The IP address is freely selectable red flashes 1Hz: Invalid MAC ID (internal fault Ethernet interface)

red flashes 2Hz: No valid Ethernet configuration loaded

red flashes 4Hz: internal fault Ethernet interface red lights: double IP address recognised

- Status NET LEDs:

off: No voltage or no IP address green lights: Connected with Ethernet / IP green flashing: No connection made to Ethernet / IP red flashing: Connection Timeout red lights: Double IP address red/ green light: Self-test

• LED Link to Ethernet:

green lights: Controller _e is connected to an Ethernet network off: No connection made to Ethernet network

• LED Transmission activity: Flashing green for every data package transferred

Operation

To operate an AS-i system a special AS-i power supply is required (e.g. AC1216). The AS-i power supply supplies the yellow AS-i cable with energy and implements a data decoupling to the voltage regulator of the power supply. Standard switched-mode power supplies would consider the AS-i data signals as interference signals and suppress them.

Disconnect the power supply before connecting the controller _e .

The AS-i system is operated ungrounded. AS-i + and AS-i - are to be symmetrical to the ground potential of the installation. Ensure a low resistance connection of the symmetry point of the AS-i power supply (terminal shield) to the ground of the installation.
