1. Safety Intended usage

The bus systems (CAN bus and serial bus) are designed for connec-
ting individual E+L control components and networking control loops.

Description
Keep the above in a safe place, accessible to personnel at all times.

Installation
Run bus lines away from noisy or heavy current carrying cables (e.g.
motor cables).
Please ensure when running bus lines that the insulation is not da-
maged and lines correctly secured and protected.
The CAN bus must not be longer than 160 m, the serial bus 0.5 m.

3. Function
3.1 CAN bus networking Individual CAN bus cards are connected together by the CAN bus
(see type overview). The CAN bus must not exceed a total length of
160 meters. A terminating resistor connector must be attached to
both ends of the CAN bus.
The CAN bus operates on the multi master principle.

3.2 CAN bus organisation In order to distinguish between the different CAN bus cards in a CAN
bus system, each CAN bus card must have its own address. Setting
is via a DIP switch on all CAN bus cards. The address is specified in
the block diagram (on systems designed by E+L).
Device no.DIP switches 1 - 4
Group no. DIP switches 5 - 7 The address consists of two parts:
Example: 5 0 - the group number from 0 to 7
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 - the device number from 1 to F (hex)
ON
Example: Address 0.5 0 = Grp no.
OFF 5 = device number

Binary value Address 2.5 2 = group number

1 2 4 8 1 2 4 5 = device number
Each address may only be used once!
DIP switches

CAN bus, serial bus

There can be a maximum of 8 groups and 15 devices per group in

each CAN bus system (see illustration). All CAN bus cards belonging
to one control loop get the same group number but different device
numbers (see block diagram).
Each device has its own parameter record for defining functions, for
settings and optimisation etc.

Busorganisation
Each device (CAN bus card, serial bus card, sensors etc.)may be
selected via command stations.
The following device numbers are assigned as standard to the web
guider and web tension controller families:

Device Web guider Web tension controller

1 Right sensor
2 Left sensor
5 Web guider (master device) web guider (master device)
6 Right support beam I/O card
7 Left support beam Operator panel RT..

3.3 Serial bus Serial bus cards(see type overview) are connected to a CAN bus
card via a serial bus. As a rule, up to 8 serial bus cards can be con-
nected to each CAN bus card. The CAN bus card automatically as-
signs addresses to the attached, serial bus cardcards. These addres-
ses are also known as a "subsystem addresses".
The automatically assigned address may already be assigned to a
hardware-addressed CAN bus card. In this case the serial bus
card must be assigned a free address in the appropriate parame-
ter (see parameter list).

The serial bus must not be longer than 50 cm. A terminating resi-
stor connector must be attached to the end of the serial bus.
The serial bus operates on the master-slave principle.

3.5 CAN bus adapter EK 4...

LED
A CAN bus card is generally connected to the CAN bus via CAN bus
adapter EK 4... .
EK 4...
The CAN bus connection consists of two 3-pole diode sockets brid-
ged on the back of CAN bus adapter EK 4... . The LED indicates
whether the CAN bus card is operating error-free. If it lights up green
there is no malfunction, if it lights up red, there is a malfunction on
CAN bus connector the CAN bus card.
A CAN bus terminating connector must be attached to each end
CAN bus connector (exterior view) of the CAN-Bus.
