3.3 Ground connection

In most applications, industrial controllers are installed in control cabinets that also contain electromagnetic switch-
ing elements (relays, contactors), transformers, motor controllers, frequency inverters, etc. Different kinds of elec-
tromagnetic interference inevitably exist in such control cabinets.
Generally, this kind of interference cannot be avoided. However, if suitable grounding, shielding and other pro-
tective measures are taken, negative influences between devices can be considerably reduced. These protec-
tive measures include control cabinet grounding, module grounding, cable shield grounding, protective circuits on
electromechanical switching elements, the correct use of cables as well as taking into account the cable cross
section and type.
Grounding essentially has 2 different functions:
• Protective grounding
• Dissipation of electromagnetic disturbances

3.3.1 Directly to the back wall of the control cabinet

The housing must be conductively connected (screwed in) to the back wall of the control cabinet using the 4
mounting holes.

Figure 1: Installation - Directly to the back wall of the control cabinet

For coated back walls, a sufficient connection is only guaranteed if the screw connection is made with a screw
thread on the back wall. If this is not the case, a contact washer must also be provided between the mounting
nut and back wall.

5 Operating and connection elements

5.1 Button for reset and operating mode

5.1.1 Reset

The button must be pressed for less than 2 seconds to trigger a reset. This triggers a hardware reset on the CPU,
which means that:
• All application programs are stopped.
• All outputs are set to zero.
The PLC then boots into service mode by default. The startup mode that follows after pressing the reset button
can be defined in Automation Studio.
• Service mode (default)
• Warm restart
• Cold restart
• Diagnostic mode

5.1.2 Operating mode

3 operating modes can be configured using different button sequences:

Operating mode Button sequence Description
BOOT Boot mode is enabled by the following button sequence: Boot AR is started, and the runtime system can be installed via the
• online interface (Automation Studio). User flash memory is erased
Press the button for less than 2 s.
only when the download begins.
As soon as LED "Error" lights RED, the button can be re-
leased.
• Then press the button within 2 s for longer than 2 s.
As soon as LED "Error" goes dark, the button can be re-
leased.
RUN Press the button for less than 2 s. Mode RUN:
As soon as LED "Error" lights RED, the button can be released. The triggering and boot behavior correspond to what happens when
a hardware reset is triggered (see "Reset" on page 14).
DIAGNOSIS Press the button for more than 2 seconds . The CPU boots in diagnostic mode. Program sections in User RAM
LED "Error" lights RED and then goes dark. As soon as LED "Er- and User FlashPROM are not initialized. After diagnostic mode, the
ror" goes dark, the button can be released. CPU always boots with a warm restart.

5.2 Flash drive

This application memory is integrated on a flash drive.

 XEPIMCx00

5.3 Programming the system flash

General information
The Automation Runtime operating system, system components and application project must be installed on the
flash drive in order for the application project to be processed on the CPU.

Installation via online connection

When delivered, the CPUs are equipped with Boot AR with a limited range of functions. This runtime system is
started in boot mode. It initializes and operates the Ethernet and integrated serial RS232 interfaces, making it
possible to download a runtime system.
Enabling the boot mode:
• Setup by button: See section "Operating mode" on page 14.
• Invalid flash drive
► Switch on the supply voltage for the CPU. In boot mode, the CPU starts with Boot AR.
► Establish a physical online connection between the programming device (PC or industrial PC) and the CPU
(e.g. over an Ethernet network or the RS232 interface).

► Before an online connection can be established via Ethernet, the CPU must be assigned an IP address. To
do so, select the following menu option in Automation Studio: Online / Settings.
Then search for the B&R target systems located in the local network. Select the following menu command
for this: View / Online settings / Browse.
The CPU should appear in the list. If the CPU has not already received an IP address from a DHCP server,
right-click to open the shortcut menu and select the following command: Set IP parameters.
All required network configurations can be made on a temporary basis in this dialog box (they should be
identical to the settings defined in the project).
► Configure an online connection in Automation Studio. For configuration details: See "Communication - Online
communication" in Automation Help.

► Select the following menu option to start the download procedure in Automation Studio:
AS <V4.3.3 Online / Services / Transfer Automation Runtime
AS V4.3.3 or later Project / Project installation / Transfer Automation Runtime

Then follow the instructions provided by Automation Studio.

5.4 Data and real-time clock buffering

The CPUs do not use a battery. This makes them completely maintenance-free. The following measures make
operation without a backup battery possible.
Data and real-time clock buffering Type of buffering Note
Remanent variables FRAM This FRAM stores its contents ferroelectrically. Unlike normal SRAM, this does
not require a battery.
Real-time clock Gold foil capacitor The real-time clock is buffered for approx. 1000 hours by a gold foil capacitor. The
gold foil capacitor is completely charged after 3 continuous hours of operation.

8 Derating
Digital outputs DO01 to DO33 can be loaded with up to 2 A. However, the summation current per output driver
is only permitted to be 2 A. An output driver always operates 2 outputs, one with an odd number and the next
one with an even number.
Example: Output 1 and output 2, output 3 and output 4 or output 31 and output 32. Output 33 can be loaded with
2 A without restriction.

9 General data points

This CPU is equipped with general data points. These are not CPU-specific; instead, they contain general infor-
mation such as system time and heat sink temperature.
General data points are described in section "Additional information - General data points" of the X20 system user's
manual.

10 Function description
10.1 Analog inputs

10.1.1 Input filter

Analog inputs 1 to 7 are equipped with a configurable input filter and input ramp limit. The filter and ramp limit are
calculated with a cycle of 1 ms.

10.1.2 Input ramp limiting

Input ramp limiting can only be performed in conjunction with filtering; input ramp limiting is performed before
filtering. The difference of the input value change is checked for exceeding the specified limit. In the event of
overshoot, the tracked input value is equal to the old value ± the limit value.
Adjustable limit values:
The limit value is to be interpreted as "Change in value every 1 ms".
Value Limit value
0 The input value is applied without limiting.
1 0x3FFF = 16383
2 0x1FFF = 8191
3 0x0FFF = 4095
4 0x07FF = 2047
5 0x03FF = 1023
6 0x01FF = 511
7 0x00FF = 255

Table 4: Input ramp limiting

Input ramp limiting is well suited for suppressing disturbances (spikes). The following examples show the function-
ality of input ramp limiting based on an input jump and a disturbance.

Example 1
The input value jumps from 8000 to 17000. The diagram shows the tracked input value with the following settings:
Input ramp limiting = 4 = 0x07FF = 2047
Filter level = 2

The input value is evaluated more or less strongly depending on the filter level. Input ramp limiting can then be
applied based on this evaluation.
