PACSystems™ RX3i and RSTi-EP CPU Reference Manual
GFK-2222AK
Each upgrade kit contains specific instructions for performing the upgrade. Depending on
the CPU Model and firmware version, the method employed is one of the following:
a) Use a serial port and the WinLoader utility (applies to CPU310, CPU315 & CPU320
b) Use a USB port and memory stick for CPE302 (with firmware version 9.40 and later)
c) Use an Ethernet port and a Web-based mechanism for RXi CPUs, RX3i CPE330,

Operation, Protection, and Module Status

Operation of the CPU can be controlled by the three-position RUN/STOP Switch or
remotely by an attached programmer and programming software. Program and
configuration data can be locked through software passwords. The status of the CPU is
indicated by the CPU LEDs on the front of the module. For details, see Indicators for each
PACSystems family.
Note: The RESET pushbutton is provided to support future features and has no effect on
CPU operation in the current version
2.1.4

Ethernet Global Data

Note: Effective with RX3i firmware version 8.30
EGD Class 1. Prior to that firmware version, EGD was only available in the RX3i via the RX3i
Ethernet Interface Module (ETM001).
Effective with RX3i firmware version 8.60
is available on all firmware versions of RX3i CPE400, CPL410, CPE302 and RSTi-EP
CPE100/CPE115.
Each PACSystems CPU supports up to 255 simultaneous EGD pages across all Ethernet
interfaces in the Controller. EGD pages must be configured in the programming software
and stored into the CPU. The EGD configuration can also be loaded from the CPU into the
programming software. Both produced and consumed pages can be configured.
PACSystems CPUs support the use of only part of a consumed EGD page, and EGD page
production and consumption to the broadcast IP address of the local subnet.
The PACSystems CPU supports 2ms EGD page production and timeout resolution. EGD
pages can be configured for a production period of 0, indicating the page is to be
produced every output scan. The minimum period for these "as fast as possible" pages
is 2 ms. Refer to the Section, A-3.6 for EGD Sweep Impact for RX3i CPE302/CPE305/CPE310
and RSTi-EP CPE100/CPE115 Embedded Ethernet Interface.
During EGD configuration, PACSystems Ethernet interfaces are identified by their
Rack/Slot location.
