Functions

These freely programmable automation stations provide the infrastructure for the
provision and processing of system-specific and application-specific functions.
Apart from the freely programmable control functions these units comprise integrated
convenient management functions such as:
• Alarm management with alarm routing throughout the whole network. Three level
alarm management (simple, basic and enhanced) with safety control transmission
and automatic transmission monitoring
• Time schedulers
• Trend functions
• Remote management functions
• Access protection for the whole network with individually defined user profiles and
categories

Programming language These automation stations are freely programmable with the D-MAP programming
language (follows closely CEN Standard 1131). All function blocks available in libraries
are graphically linked with the plant operating programs.
.
Communication .

Operation There are various options for operation of the PXC…U automation stations: .
• QAX... room unit connected to the PPS2 interface. A maximum of five room units .
.
QAX… (not QAX5…) can be connected. Details on the PPS2 communication are .
described in the DESIGO Technical principles manual (chapter "I/O blocks", section .
.
"PPS2 addressing"). .
• Local PXM10 operator unit, either plugged into the automation station or connected .
.
via PXA-C1 cable
.
• Network-compatible PXM20 operator unit (BACnet / LON) .
for operation of the local automation station or an automation station in a network, .
.
either plugged into the automation station, or connected via PXA-C1 cable .
• Network-compatible PXM20-E operator unit (BACnet / IP) .
.
for operation of the local automation station or an automation station in a network, .
either plugged into the automation station, or connected to the Ethernet network or .
.
an Ethernet switch.
.
• PX-WEB: The PXA30-W… extension module is used to activate the Web server, .
allowing operation with a Web browser, a touch panel or a PDA. .
.
The transfer of alarms via SMS or e-mail can be configured in the automation .
station. .

Technology

The data between the automation station and the I/O modules are exchanged via the 3-
core P-bus.. Each module on the same P-bus is provided with its own address between
1 and 255. The addresses are set with address plugs.

The automation stations provide the connected I/O modules with a DC 23 V supply.

The automation station load by I/O modules is expressed by the number of load units of
12.5 mA each (details of the calculation of the total load see the I/O module range
document CM2N8100).

Mounting instructions

The modular automation stations are particularly suitable for control panel front
mounting as well as flush-panel and wall mounting.
For control panel front mounting the device socket is held in place by clamps at all four
corners (no tools required for mounting). The upper housing is fixed to the device .
.
socket with two screws. .
For flush panel mounting the plug-in terminal blocks can be repositioned whilst at the
same time reversing the support bars to enable front access. The support bars absorb
the screw force and also provide the means of fixing the device to the wall.
.
Instead of the front cover a PXM... operator unit can be fitted on the modular auto- .
mation station. .
.
Note For PXM20-E mounting (ethernet cable) see the mounting instructions delivered with .
.
the operator unit! .
.
STOP Note! • Insert the PXA30… extension module fully into its socket (to a depth of 1.5 mm), .
.
using slight force. Then check that the plug is safely snapped on to ensure safe .
and smooth functioning. .
.
• Do not touch the connector pins (electrostatic discharge) .

Commissioning

In order to prevent equipment damage and/or personal injuries always follow local
safety regulations and the required safety standards.
.
STOP Caution! Electronic parts may be damaged if the upper housing is inserted or .
.
disconnected with the supply voltage switched on (hot plugging). .

Loading plant operating Download the plant operating program to the automation station with the PX Design
program tool in the DESIGO TOOLSET, direct via the RJ45 connector or the LON bus.

Setting parameters and Use the PX Design tool in the DESIGO TOOLSET for setting the control parameters
configurations and the configuration data. Data visible in the network can also be changed with the
.
PXM… operator unit. .

Wiring test It is possible to test field devices and the wiring as soon as the power supply is
connected, without first downloading the plant operating program.
.
The test is carried out with a PXM20 or PXM20-E operator unit. .

Network connection The network addresses are configured with the DESIGO TOOLSET. In order to provide
a unique identification in the LON network press the service pin with a sharp implement
(COM1 on the front, see page 4) or send a wink command to the relevant automation
station (service LED flashes).

Service functions Three service buttons are provide under the front cover:

Maintenance

Battery life Lithium batteries usually have a life span of at least four years. The automation station
automatically sends a system event in order to indicate a low charge.
After the "Battery low" event there are several months of remaining life span.

Battery change To change the battery, remove the front cover. As long as the supply voltage is .
.
connected, the battery may be removed for unlimited time. .

STOP Caution! To prevent hardware damage by electrostatic discharge (ESD), a wrist strap with earth
cable must be used during the battery change.
