7 Important notes 7 Safety information 1.4 Safety information Attention Attention Switch off the system prior to working on bus modules. In the event of deformed contacts, the module in question is to be replaced, as its functionality can no longer be ensured on a long-term basis. The components are not resistant against materials having seeping and insulating properties. Belonging to this group of materials is: e.g. aerosols,silicones, triglycerides (found in some hand creams). If it cannot be ruled out that these materials appear in the component environment, then additional measures are to be taken: - installation of the components into an appropriate enclosure. - handling of the components only with clean tools and materials. Attention Cleaning of soiled contacts may only be done with ethyl alcohol and leather cloths. Thereby, the ESD information is to be regarded. Do not use any contact spray. The spray may impair the functioning of the contact area. The and its components are an open system. It must only be assembled in housings, cabinets or in electrical operation rooms. Access must only be given via a key or tool to authorized qualified personnel. The relevant valid and applicable standards and guidelines concerning the installation of switch boxes are to be observed. ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) The modules are equipped with electronic components that may be destroyedby electrostatic discharge. When handling the modules, ensure that theenvironment (persons, workplace and packing) is well grounded. Avoid touching conductive components, e.g. gold contacts. WAGO I/O-IPC /000-xxx

8 8 Important notes Scope 1.5 Scope These quick start instructions describe the implementation of the WAGO-I/O- IPC /000-xxx functionalities which are not or only insufficiently described in the "WAGO-I/O-IPC" manual. In the first instance, features are described which allow interesting CoDeSys applications (e.g. Target Visu,...) to be implemented efficiently on the device. Furthermore, helpful tips are given to the user regarding these topics. These features are not dependent on the CoDeSys IPC versions. Topics related to a specific device will be indicated in the appropriate way. When required, some specific issues will be discussed using an example node. Each node of the WAGO-I/O-IPC /000-xxx includes , -530 and -600 I/O modules. You will find detailed information about operation, assembly and start-up in the manuals WAGO-I/O-IPC and WAGO-I/O-PRO CAA. This documentation is hence only valid in connection with the appropriate manuals. Further information Further information You can also find the manuals WAGO-I/O-IPC and WAGO-I/O-PRO CAA as PDF files on the WAGO-I/O-PRO CAA ( ) CD-ROM and on the Internet under: WAGO I/O-IPC /

9 Starting up the example node 9 Node connection and assembly 2 Starting up the example node 2.1 Node connection and assembly Build up the example node as follows (from left to right): IPC nodes: /000-xxx; ; ; Connect the supplies for the WAGO-I/O-IPC and the power jumper contacts to a DC 24 V power supply unit (e.g ). In this example, it would be sufficient for the WAGO-I/O-IPC to connect X4 + and + located on the right hand side supply module, or between X4 - and - using a wire jumper (see Fig. 2.1). Fig.2.1: WAGO-I/O-IPC /000-xxx 2.2 Ethernet network start-up WAGO I/O-IPC /000-xxx Connect the node to your Ethernet network via the Ethernet port X9. Either connect it directly to a PC using a crossover cable (crossed Ethernet cables) or to a Hub or a Switch using a 1-to-1 patch cable. Please write down the following Ethernet settings of your PC: the IP address (e.g ), the Subnet Mask (e.g ) and possibly the Gateway IP address. You can see the settings under Start à Settings à Network and Dialup Connections. Your network administrator can give you more information. Write down the MAC ID of the Ethernet port X9 of the WAGO-I/O- IPC /000-xxx, which you can find on the sticker on the left-hand side of the housing. Install the WAGO BootP Server which you can find on the ELECTRONICC Tools and Docs CD (Item No.: / ) or

10 10 Starting up the example node Ethernet network start-up for free download on the Internet under: " Service Documentation Software. Click the Edit Bootptab button. Create an entry in the bootptab file with the following structure: any name : ht=1 : ha= MAC Id of the coupler : ip= New IP address of the coupler : sm= Subnet mask Example: /000-xxx:ht=1:ha=0030DE001234:ip= :sm= : Fig. 2.2: Bootptab editor, entering the Ethernet settings Restart the BootP server via the Start button and disconnect the fieldbus node from the power supply for approx. 2 s. The WAGO-I/O-IPC /000-xxx will now send a BootP request and will receive the previously set IP address from the BootP server. Note The IP address has not yet been stored permanently by the BootP server but only is in the RAM memory of the controller. Note The permanent storage of the IP address for the WAGO-I/O-IPC /000-xxx is achieved in a different way it is the case with the ETHERNET fieldbus controller Leave the WAGO-I/O-IPC turned on and turn off the BootP server. A first test can be performed on the IP address via the Windows console using a single "ping". Start a browser (e.g. Internet Explorer, Netscape Navigator). Enter the IP address of the WAGO-I/O-IPC / into the address bar of the browser (e.g. WAGO I/O-IPC /

11 Starting up the example node 11 Ethernet network start-up The Proxy server should be avoided for local addresses. Further information Please find more information about avoiding the Proxy server for local addresses in the browser help section under Proxy server and LAN settings. You will then get access to the integrated Web server s default Web pages of the WAGO-I/O-IPC (see Fig. 2.3). Password-protected authentication is required to access the protected pages of the Web server (e.g. to set up the network parameters and protocols) using the following default values: User: user Password: user00 Passwort: user00 WAGO I/O-IPC /000-xxx

12 12 Starting up the example node Ethernet network start-up Fig. 2.3: Web server /000-xxx Top page of the navigation area On the first page you will find all relevant device and network settings that can be performed via the Web-based management of the WAGO-I/O-IPC. Then, click on ETH0 (X9) TCP/IP. The following page will be displayed (see Fig. 2.4) that allows you to change the TCP/IP parameters of the device. Fig. 2.4: Web server /000-xxx TCP/IP configuration WAGO I/O-IPC /

13 Starting up the example node 13 Ethernet network start-up Select the desired network server and click the Submit button on the Web page (see Fig. 4). To set a fixed IP address in EEPROM, select FixIP and enter the desired parameters into the list. By default, the values currently assigned via the BootP server can be stored if desired. The network operation of the WAGO I/O-IPC with BootP requires the continuous presence of a BootP server on the net, which allocates its IP address to the device on restart. The parameters can be changed at any time via the Web page. A new operation using a BootP server requires that the appropriate mode be reactivated. You can easily check the IP address by turning the controller power off and on again and then viewing the Web pages using a browser. Additionally, the protocols can be activated on the Port configuration Web page (e.g. Modbus/TCP, Modbus/UDP, Ethernet/IP). The protocols will be immediately available for the process data communication via Ethernet. WAGO I/O-IPC /000-xxx

14 14 Virtual Consoles / DVI Port Switching Between the Consoles, 3 Virtual Consoles / DVI Port For visualization output on panels or monitors, the WAGO I/O-IPC /000-xxx supports two virtual consoles via DVI port. These consoles can be systematically activated via key combinations on a connected USB keyboard or can be directly preset by the system according to the visualization (e.g. CoDeSys Target Visualization). 3.1 Switching Between the Consoles Console 1: console used for Linux command lines Console 2: graphic console used for CoDeSys Target Visualization. This console is selected automatically during the boot process. To switch between both consoles, use the keys <ALT><F1> and <ALT><F2>. The default resolution of the virtual consoles is 640 x 480 pixels, 16 bit color depth. The graphical resolution for both consoles can be changed in the selection menu "VGA" via the webbased management. This will be described in section 3.2. The selection menu of the WBM always shows the current resolution. After changing the display resolution, you need to restart the WAGO-I/O-IPC. WAGO I/O-IPC /

15 Virtual Consoles / DVI Port 15 Variable Resolution of the Virtual Consoles 3.2 Variable Resolution of the Virtual Consoles For the variable graphical configuration of the WAGO-I/O-IPC, both the resolution and the color depth of the virtual consoles on the DVI port can be adapted to the customer needs or requirements using connected panels. The required selection menus can be found in WBM under "VGA" (see Fig. 3.1). Fig.3.1: Setting the console resolution in WBM Depending on the connected monitor or panel, the appropriate changes must be performed in the BIOS of the WAGO-I/O-IPC, so that the correct display resolution and truetype fonts can be used. In this regard, see also section 5. When connecting VGA monitors, e.g. over an appropriate adapter plug or DVI monitors, the following settings must be done in the BIOS: => C: Motherboard Device Configuration => F. Video and Flat Panel Configuration => Flat Panel Mode: Disabled When connecting a flatpanel to the IPC using a fixed resolution, the resolution must be adjusted as shown in the following example: => C: Motherboard Device Configuration => F. Video and Flat Panel Configuration => Flat Panel Mode: Enabled => Panel Type: SVGA WAGO I/O-IPC /000-xxx

16 16 Virtual Consoles / DVI Port Variable Resolution of the Virtual Consoles The resolution of the DVI output can be set subsequently via the webbased management and the new settings will be valid after restart. Changing the resolution is done immediately after starting the Linux system on the console with the fonts being much smaller (e.g. at 1024 x of 760 pixels). For a correct result (see Fig.3.2), the graphic resolution of the CoDeSys Target Visualization that has been changed in the settings of the target system must be taken into account. Fig. 3.2: Setting the resolution of the Target Visualization WAGO I/O-IPC /

17 Loadable Fonts of CoDeSys Target Visualization 17 Variable Resolution of the Virtual Consoles 4 Loadable Fonts of CoDeSys Target Visualization With the software version 0201 ( ) it is possible to integrate TrueType fonts into the CoDeSys Target Visualization. This functionality is approved for series applications using software version " wpr2". Special fonts are available that fit the micro windows of the WAGO I/O IPC and must then be loaded onto the target system. These fonts are available for free on the Internet under: ftp://microwindows.censoft.com/pub/microwindows/microwindows-fonts tar.gz Several preliminary steps must be taken before using these fonts. In order for TrueType fonts to display correctly on a Target Visualization, the fonts must exist in a special folder on the IPC. These fonts are not delivered with the IPC and must be installed by the user. The simplest way to do this is via an ftp connection from the host computer. Fig. 4.1 shows the appropriate menu for establishing the connection in the "Total-Commander" program. Fig. 4.1: FTP connection with "Total Commander" Note The access atuthorization for the FTP connection is done via User name: user Password: user00 WAGO I/O-IPC /000-xxx

18 18 Loadable Fonts of CoDeSys Target Visualization Variable Resolution of the Virtual Consoles After logging into the file system of the WAGO-I/O-IPC, you are in the /data folder. The CoDeSys application is automatically stored in this folder to which the user has read and write access. Another /fonts folder must be created in this folder and then a /truetype folder, so that the whole structure is: /data/fonts/truetype. When names are being created, all words should be written in small letters. The required fonts must also be copied into the /truetype folder using the FTP file transfer (Fig 4.2). Fig. 4.2: File transfer via FTP When scalable TrueType fonts are integrated into the CoDeSys Target Visualization of the WAGO I/O IPC, certain rules must be observed. Simply copying the fonts into the folder as described above is not always successful. Microsoft Windows truetype fonts cannot be integrated into the Target Visualization. To do so, special Microwindows fonts are needed for Linux (see Internet link above). The extension of the desired font must always be *.ttf. The font name downloaded onto the IPC must always be related to the name as indicated in the Windows selection box (e.g. Times new Roman.ttf). Both large and small letters as well as blanks must also be considered here. If the desired font is not available in the required format on the IPC, then a standard character font will be used. Example: WAGO I/O-IPC /

Note Due to storage limitations, the WAGO-I/O-IPC /000-xxx is delivered without scalable truetype fonts for the Target Visualization. 5 Connecting a Touch Flatpanel (Serial or USB) WAGO I/O-IPC /000-xxx Besides the possibility of entering data by default into the CoDeSys Target Visualization via USB mouse or USB keyboard, the connection of both serial

20 20 Connecting a Touch Flatpanel (Serial or USB) Operation via USB Mouse and USB Keyboard and USB touch flatpanels are possible using software version " wpr2". To use these functionalities in the WAGO-I/O-IPC, the appropriate entries must be done in a configuration file via an FTP connection. All the steps required to connect different touchpanels are described below. 5.1 Operation via USB Mouse and USB Keyboard The WAGO-I/O-IPC /000-xxx is delivered with Target Visualization for operation with both USB mouse and USB keyboard. Connecting these components is possible without changing the configuration of the WAGO I/O- IPC. A standard monitor (or flat screen) can be connected for visualization purposes and the selection of the desired resolution can be done as described in section Operation via USB Trackball and USB Keyboard In industrial applications, it is often usefull to use a trackball instead of a mouse, as it can be mounted into an enclosure and is suitable for operation in harsh environments. A USB trackball from the SASSE-ELECTRONIK GmbH company ( has been tested on the WAGO I/O-IPC /000-xxx. The item number of the SASSE-ELEKTRONIK module is and the price is 192,- net/list. Fig. 5.1 shows the trackball module in stainless steel design. The module is designed to be directly mounted to the front panel of a switch cabinet or enclosure and can be connected to the WAGO-I/O-IPC via the connected USB cable (approx. 1.50m long) using the USB plug. The configuration of the WAGO-I/O-IPC doesn't need to be changed compared to the operation with a USB mouse and USB keyboard, as the trackball can be operated like a standard USB mouse.

21 Connecting a Touch Flatpanel (Serial or USB) 21 Connecting a USB Touch Flatpanel Fig. 5.1: USB trackball in stainless steel front panel design from SASSE- ELEKTRONIK GmbH 5.3 Connecting a USB Touch Flatpanel Besides the possibilities shown above, we will also deal with the connection of touch panels for displaying and operating CoDeSys Target Visualization. Drivers for the operation of different KONTRON touch flatpanels (USB, serial) are already included in the WAGO-I/O-IPC and can be selected by the user depending on which type of panel is being used. To connect a touchpane please following the following steps: 1. Setting the required display resolution in both the BIOS and WBM of the WAGO-I/O-IPC 2. Selecting the appropriate touchpanel driver within WAGO-I/O-IPC 3. Synchronizing the file system within WAGO-I/O-IPC 4. Calibrating the touchpanel Each step for connecting a touchpanel will be described in details in the following sections. This procedure will be shown using the KONTRON touchpanel "Type 104, which is the only test device available to WAGO. The device is a 10 panel equipped with USB connection and with a resolution of 800 x 600 pixels. The price is approx. 950, Selecting the Display Resolution The appropriate resolution of the touch flatpanel is generally provided by the panel itself and is preset by the manufacturer. The KONTRON touch flatpanel of "Type 104" has a resolution of 600 x 800 pixels. The resolution must be set in both BIOS and Webbased Management (WBM) of the WAGO-I/O-IPC hardware. The following settings must be done and stored into the BIOS: => C: Motherboard Device Configuration => F. Video and Flat Panel Configuration => Flat Panel Mode: Disabled => Panel Type: SVGA WAGO I/O-IPC /000-xxx

22 22 Connecting a Touch Flatpanel (Serial or USB) Connecting a USB Touch Flatpanel A resolution of 800x600 pixels must then be set in the WBM (see Fig. 5.2) as shown in section 3.2. Fig. 5.2: Resolution of 800 x 600 pixels Note When designing the Target Visualization, the display resolution should also be considered in CoDeSys and be adjusted to 800 x 600 pixels (see section 3.2, Fig. 3.2) WAGO I/O-IPC /

23 5.3.2 Selecting the Appropriate Driver Connecting a Touch Flatpanel (Serial or USB) 23 Connecting a USB Touch Flatpanel Different drivers are available on the WAGO-I/O-IPC so that the appropriate driver for the console with the Target Visualization can be selected for a peripheral device. These drivers are fully integrated into the system and a direct access is not possible. A text file is used as configuration file, in which the appropriate driver can be selected from a list by using an appropriate entry. The name of the configuration file is "mousetype.cfg" which is included within the file system in the /etc folder. Users have read access to the /etc folder. The required adjustments can be done using a standard text editor. An FTP access tool can be used to change the configuration file, so that the file can be downloaded onto the local PC. Designing the FTP connection to the WAGO- I/O-IPC has already been shown in detail in section 4. After the first login, the user is in the /data directory. Then he needs to navigate one level higher to the /etc folder, which includes the "mousetype.cfg file for local download. The content of this file is shown in Fig Fig. 5.3: "mousetype.cfg" in original state Five different connections can be selected in this configuration file. The driver currently valid is included in: mousetype=... (z.b. mouse_usb) The driver for the USB mouse is always set by default (mouse_usb). To operate the "Type 104 USB touch flatpanel from KONTRON, this entry must be changed to mousetype=mouse_tsharc_usb After the desired change has been made, the file will be stored and copied back to the WAGO-I/O-IPC via FTP connection. As the user only has write access to the /data directory, shifting the file to this directory will be enough. WAGO I/O-IPC /000-xxx

24 24 Connecting a Touch Flatpanel (Serial or USB) Connecting a USB Touch Flatpanel After successfully copying back the modified file, it is absolutely necessary to perform a system synchronization under the Linux operating system, so that the modified file can be identified in the /data folder and integrated into the batch lists. To do so, it is necessary to login into the Linux command lines console where the synchronization can then be started. Login can be done via a connected USB keyboard or via Ethernet using a Telnet connection. Using a USB keyboard, it is possible to switch to the command lines console via the <ALT><F1> key combination. Loging to the WAGO-I/O-IPC is done via the following access data: login: user Password: user00 The next step required is the login of the administator. This is done via: su Password: ko2003wa Then synchronization is done by directly entering sync After successful login and synchronization, the console of the WAGO-I/O-IPC will appear (via Telnet) as shown in Fig Fig. 5.4: Linux command lines console after login The synchronization process is then completed and the WAGO I/O-IPC must be restarted so that the new settings and drivers can be taken over. After first boot up and once the connected USB touch screen has been identified, a calibration software will be started automatically. WAGO I/O-IPC /

25 Connecting a Touch Flatpanel (Serial or USB) 25 Connecting a Serial Touch Screen Calibrating the Touch Screen After selecting the required driver and restarting the WAGO I/O IPC, the touch screen that has been identified must be calibrated once. To do so, the boot procedure of the WAGO I/O IPC will be stopped and the appropriate calibration tool will be started. Here you are requested to press the upper left most corner and then the lower right most corner of the screen to define the reference coordinates (see Fig. 5.5). Fig 5.5: Calibration tool After both points have been defined, the device will continue to be booted up automatically and the touch screen is ready for use. Once calculated, the coordinates of the calibration will also be stored into the configuration file mousetype.cfg within the /data folder, where they can be used as references (see Fig. 5.6) Fig. 5.6: "mousetype.cfg" for USB touch screen 5.4 Connecting a Serial Touch Screen WAGO I/O-IPC /000-xxx As an alternative to the connection of an USB touch flatpanel, a touch screen can also be connected via the serial RS232 interface of the WAGO-I/O-IPC. The procedure is similar to the steps described in section 5.3. To select the driver, a serial panel must simply be entered into "mousetype.cfg.

27 Data Backup on CF Card 27 Storing Device Settings and Application 6 Data Backup on CF Card For both archival storage of the application and data backup of the device settings, the WAGO I/O-IPC provides the possibility to implement this functionality via WBM with a simple click of the mouse. An empty FAT32 formatted CF card is used as the memory. The CF card shall not be formatted as bootable. Attention The CF cards to be used are the "Toshiba THNCF256MBA" or cards from WAGO. Failure-free operation is not guaranteed when using memories from other manufacturers (e.g. Kingston). Attention Remanent data on the WAGO-I/O-IPC are not stored onto the CF card! 6.1 Storing Device Settings and Application The backup function is located in the Webbased Management after the menu item "Backup". To reach this function, a login is necessary in order to prevent unauthorized access into the device. Access is also possible using the following characteristics: User name: Password. user user00 The menu is shown in Fig WAGO I/O-IPC /000-xxx

28 28 Data Backup on CF Card Storing Device Settings and Application Fig. 6.1: Backup function of the WAGO-I/O-IPC Further information is also available on this page. Note The CF card is not hot pluggable. To boot the WAGO-I/O-IPC, the empty and formatted card must be plugged with the power off. During the boot procedure the internal Flash precedes the external one. After a successful backup, the WAGO-I/O-IPC creates a "/backup" directory on the CF card, which includes two other directories. All device specific data are stored in the "/backup/bootcfg" subdirectory, which is necessary so that a new device can be provided with current network settings during servicing (e.g. IP address, gateway, subnetmask, ports,...). The user program is saved in the "/backup/data" subdirectory and can then be assigned to other devices. Besides the actual CoDeSys application, all additional data (pictures, fonts,...) will also be stored there and will be available for the Target Visualization, for example The successfully performed backup is shown in the WBM. WAGO I/O-IPC /

29 6.2 Restoring Device Settings and Application Data Backup on CF Card 29 Restoring Device Settings and Application The WAGO-I/O-IPC is booted with the CF card described above, so that the device settings and CoDeSys application stored can be restored. During the boot procedure (settings in BIOS), the external Flash must be preceded by the internal one, otherwise the device will not start up. During boot up, both network parameters and CoDeSys application program of the CF card are copied onto the WAGO-I/O-IPC. After restarting the WAGO-IO-IPC, these parameters will be taken over and the device is ready for operation with the restored data. WAGO I/O-IPC /000-xxx

30 30 Trend Recording in the Target Visualization Saving Trend Data 7 Trend Recording in the Target Visualization The Target Visualization of the WAGO I/O-IPC allows CoDeSys trends to be recorded. Using the basic selection, the graphical output of the trend data can simply be performed via the appropriate element without having to store it as history or the recorded data can also be written to an ASCII file. The installation procedure for trend recording in CoDeSys is part of the CoDeSys visualization manual and will not be covered further here. 7.1 Saving Trend Data CoDeSys trend recording allows to save the written data in files on the WAGO-I/O-IPC. In the simplest case, the file can be created in the same file system "/data" directory in which the CoDeSys-program is installed on the IPC (see Fig. 7.1). Fig. 7.1: Trend data recording in "/data" directory However, a larger amount of data cannot be stored in this directory due to the limitation of the file system and the direct dependence on both the size of the application program and the possible pictures for the Target or Web Visualization. All this data is stored in the"/data" directory. History recording of the trend data can also be written to external storage media such as CF cards. Furthermore, besides specifying the desired file name in which the data must be stored, the relative path must also be defined in the IPC filesystem where the CF card is located (see Fig. 7.2).
