Configuration error!
An incorrect valve system configuration can cause malfunctions in and dam-
age to the overall system.
1. The configuration may only be carried out by qualified personnel (see
g 2.4 Personnel qualifications).
2. Observe the specifications of the system owner as well as any restrictions
resulting from the overall system.
3. Observe the documentation of your configuration program.

5.1 Readying the PLC configuration keys

Because the electrical components in the valve zone are situated in the base plate
and cannot be identified directly, the PLC configuration keys for the valve zone
and the I/O zone are required to carry out the configuration.
You also need the PLC configuration key when the configuration is carried out in a
different location than that of the valve system.
Note down the PLC configuration key for the individual components in the fol-
u
lowing order:
- Valve side: The PLC configuration key is printed on the name plate on the
right side of the valve system.
- I/O modules: The PLC configuration key is printed on the top of the modules.
A detailed description of the PLC configuration key can be found in
g 12.4 PLC Configuration

5.2 Loading the device description file

The XDD file with texts in English for the AES series bus coupler for Eth-
ernet POWERLINK is located on CD R412018133, included on delivery.
Each valve system is equipped with a bus coupler; some contain valves and/or I/
O modules, depending on your order. Basic settings for the module have been
entered in the XDD file.
Note that different files have to be used, depending on the bus coupler used.
u
• For R412018223: PWL_000001b2_Aventics-AES.XDD
• For R412088223: PWL_000001b2_Aventics-AES-Gen2.XDD
• To configure the valve system PLC, copy the file from CD R412018133 to the
computer containing the PLC configuration program.
1. Set the bus coupler address g 9.2 Assigning a POWERLINK
2. Enter a sub-object for each module of the valve unit that is mapped to the
PDO:
- One Rx for each input module
- One Tx for each output module
- One Rx and one Tx each for combined input/output modules
You can also enter parameters for each module. If more detailed mapping is pre-
ferred, instead of using the universal XDD file, you can create an XDD file adapted
to the unit. The CD included on delivery features an XDD generator ("Powerlink
XDD.jar" (executable jar file)). This generator can be used to create XDD files that
are specifically adapted to the individual unit. To ensure proper function of the
XDD generator, Java must be installed on the computer.

5.3 Configuring the Bus Coupler in the Fieldbus System

Before you can configure the individual components of the valve system, you
need to assign an address to the bus coupler.
1. Assign an address to the bus coupler (see
dress).
- To assign an address with an address switch, see
signment with address switch (Gen.1 and Gen.2)
- To assign an address with the "Browse and Config" tool, see
setting with the "Browse and Config" tool (Gen.1)
2. Configure the bus coupler as a slave module with your PLC configuration soft-
ware.

5.4 Configuring the Valve System

5.4.1 Module sequence

The input and output objects used by the module to communicate with the con-
troller consist of 4 bytes per module. The lengths of the valve system input and
output data are calculated from the number of modules multiplied by 4 bytes.

To the right of the bus coupler (AES-D-BC-PWL) in the valve zone, the modules
are numbered in g Fig. 7 starting with the first valve driver board (module 1) and
continuing to the last valve driver board on the right end of the valve unit (mod-
ule 9).
Bridge cards are not taken into account. Supply boards and UA-OFF monitoring
boards occupy one module (see module 7 in g Fig. 7). The supply boards and UA-
OFF monitoring boards do not add any bytes to the input and output data. How-
ever, they are also counted, since they have diagnostic data, which is transferred
at the corresponding module position. No object, neither Rx nor Tx, is created for
the electrical supply boards or UA-OFF monitoring boards, since no data is en-
tered in the PDOs. Pressure regulators and combination modules require one in-
put and output data object each.
The numbering is continued in the I/O zone (module 10 to module 12 in
g Fig. 7). There, numbering is continued starting from the bus coupler to the left
end.
The parameter data is transferred via the device parameters on start-up. The bit
assignments of the bus coupler are described in
Parameters.
The diagnostic data of the valve system is 8 bytes in length and is appended to
the input data. You must therefore enter two further input objects in the Rx list in
addition to the connected input modules. The structure of this diagnostic data is
described in g Table 12.
