GFK-2815 ICRXICTL000 Quick Start Guide

1. Hardware Installation

For installation requirements and complete installation

procedures, refer to the PACSystems RXi Controller

User's Manual, GFK-2816.

Mounting Options

Direct mounting onto a panel.

DIN rail mounting using the optional Backplate

(ICRXIACCBPL).

Panel mounting using the optional Backplate.

Installing the RXi on the Optional Backplate

1. Place the RXi and Backplate on a flat surface.

2. Make sure the top of the RXi is positioned at

the top of the Backplate.

3. Align the RXi’s four mounting screws with the

mounting holes in the Backplate.

4. Using the 2.5mm hex driver (provided), tighten

the four mounting screws.


Installing the Intelligent Display Module (IDM)

Place the IDM on the RXi and use a flathead or large

Phillips screwdriver to hand-tighten the four captive

screws.


2. Connecting Input Power

You will need:

An 18–32VDC, 36W power supply. The power

supply must be either:

A UL Listed (or equivalent) Limited Power

Source (LPS) or Class 2 power source capable

of providing 18–32VDC, 36W minimum

or

The combination of an isolated DC supply and

a fuse, listed 32VDC minimum and 3A

maximum, connected in series with the output

of the power supply.

A power cord with 18 AWG wires (0.82mm2)

A frame ground wire, 18 AWG (0.82mm2)

An input power terminal block (provided)

1. Using the power cord, attach the

power supply to the power

terminal block.

Recommended wire stripping

length is 7mm (0.28 in).

2. Insert the plug into the

RXi’s Input Power connector and securely

tighten the attaching screws.

3. Grounding

These grounding connections are required for the RXi

to comply with the standards identified in the User's

Manual.

The panel the controller or DIN rail is mounted

to must have a safety ground connection to

protective earth. This ground wire must be at

least #16 AWG (1.31mm2).

If the controller is mounted on the Backplate,

the ground wire must be attached from any

mounting screw on the Backplate to

protective earth.

The frame ground connection on the power

plug must be connected to protective earth.

It is recommended that all ground wires

terminate at the same grounding point.

All ground wires must be shortest possible

length.

4. Connecting Communications Cables

1. Connect the PC running Proficy* Machine

Edition (PME) software to the RXi’s GbE port.

Note: Shielded cable is required for 1 Gbps

operation.

devices

10Base-T/100Base-Tx/1000BASE-T

Twisted Pair Cable

2. PROFINET IO can be connected to either of

the two PROFINET ports. Use of Media

Redundancy Protocol (MRP) requires both

PROFINET ports). If MRP is not used, the

PROFINET IO can be connected to either port.

The subnet for the two PROFINET ports must

be different from the subnet for the port used

for the PME software connection. The default

subnet for the PROFINET ports is 192.168.0

(subnet mask is 255.255.255.0).


Caution

Do not connect both ports on the RXi to the same device, either directly or indirectly, unless Media Redundancy is enabled in the PROFINET interface configuration.

If Media Redundancy will be used, do not close the network ring until a Media Redundancy configuration that contains a Media Redundancy Manager (MRM) node has been downloaded to the RXi. If an MRM is not present, packets can continuously cycle on the network, using up significant network bandwidth.

5. Initial Powerup

When 24 VDC is applied to the input terminals, the

powerup process begins. During startup and

initialization, the Status LED blinks blue and then

green.

Blue, blinking Power on

Green, blinking Operating system initialization complete/Jump to Application

Blue, solid Stop mode

Green, solid Run mode

Red, solid Stop Fault

Red, steady blink Stop Halt

Red, blink code Critical Failure


6. IDM Operations

Althouh PME is required to create and download

configuration and logic to the RXi, you can perform

many operations with the IDM. These include setting

an initial IP address, starting or stopping the RXi, and

viewing and clearing fault tables.

Drag down to view a list of

faults and access fault details

View and clear Controller

and I/O fault tables

Set a temporary IP

address

and version information

Press to return to previous view

Set the Run/Stop state

Select sweep mode and set communications window times

Provide a password

Clear all Controller memory or clear selected fault tables


7. Connecting PME to the RXi and Downloading a Project

1. Set the IP Address on the RXi.

Caution

The Ethernet interface must be configured with the correct IP Address for proper operation in a TCP/IP Ethernet network. Using incorrect IP addresses can disrupt network operation for the RXi and other nodes on the network.

The GbE port’s default IP address is

192.168.0.100.

The subnet and subnet mask of the RXi and

the PME computer must match.

The subnet for the GbE port and the

PROFINET ports must be different.

To enter a new IP address using the IDM, first

perform a Clear All operation, then change the IP

address using the Set Temporary IP function.


2. Go online with PME software.

In PME, create a project with a PACSystems

RXi target.

In the Inspector, set the active target’s IP

Address property to the RXi’s address.

Right click the target and select Go

Online or click the Online/Offline

toolbar button.

Sample Configuration for RXi Ethernet Interface

3. Download a project and start the RXi. From the

RXi target right-click menu, or the PME toolbar:

Set PME to Monitor mode.

Select Download and Start.

The PME status bar indicates the status of the RXi

Controller.


8. IO Configuration

Basic configuration steps for a PROFINET network:

Configure the PROFINET Controller

parameters in PME’s hardware configuration

tool and the PROFINET Controller properties.

Add IO-Devices to the PROFINET network.

These can be GE Intelligent Platforms PNS

modules or third-party IO-Devices.

Configure the IO-Devices.

Store the configuration data from PME to the

RXi.

For additional information about setting up your

PROFINET network, refer to the PACSystems RXi

Controller User's Manual, GFK-2816.
