1 General notes Use of the manual This manual describes the technical features and the function of the EKS Electronic-Key adapter EKS-A-IDX-G01-ST09/03 with Profibus-DP interface (order no. 084 800) as well as the version EKS-A-IDXA-G01-ST09/03/04, EKS For Safety Applications (EKS FSA, order no. 100 378). The complete evaluation and interface electronics are integrated in these units.
Electronic-Key. If the selection of the operating mode is relevant for safety, this must not be performed by means of the EKS; instead an additional device must be used to select the operating mode. This is possible via the graphical user interface on the control system, for example.
The EKS Electronic-Key adapter is not a safety component in the sense of the machinery directive. Without additional precautions the EKS Electronic-Key adapter must not be used to provide a safety function, particularly if failure or malfunction of the unit could endanger the safety or health of people in the operating area of a machine.
2 Safety precautions Warning! The EKS Electronic-Key adapter is not a safety component in the sense of the machinery directive. Without additional precautions the EKS Electronic-Key adapter must not be used to provide a safety function, particularly if failure or malfunction of the unit could endanger the safety or health of persons in the operating area of a machine.
Functional description 3.1.1 Common functions of EKS Standard and version EKS FSA The EKS is used for access control and monitoring on controllers or parts of controllers for machine installations. Instead of passwords, coded Electronic-Keys are assigned. In this way unauthorized access to control and display systems is prevented to the greatest possible extent.
3.1.2 Additional functions of the version EKS FSA The version EKS FSA has two additional semiconductor relay outputs (LA1/LA2 and optionally LB1/LB2) that are switched off as long as there is no Electronic-Key in the Electronic-Key adapter or if it is not possible to read the Electronic-Key.

Electronic-Key (see Figure Block diagram EKS FSA). Figure 3: Block diagram EKS FSA By separately evaluating channel LA and channel LB, the EKS FSA device can be used in conjunction with a safe evaluation in safety-related applications. Integrated voltage monitoring switches off the switching contacts LA and LB if the power supply is outside the permitted tolerance (see section 4.2).

Manual EKS Electronic-Key Adapter Profibus-DP DIP switch settings The device address 0...126 (decimal) can be set using the DIP switches S1 to S7. The device address is given by the sum of the address values on each DIP switch. Write protection can be enabled using DIP switch S8. In this way the writing of data to the Electronic-Key read/write is prevented.

Manual EKS Electronic-Key Adapter Profibus-DP 5 Mounting Warning! Mounting must be performed only by authorized personnel. Warning! To achieve the degree of protection IP 67, it is necessary to install the Electronic-Key adapter in a clean, flat metal plate at least 2 mm thick and to tighten the screws with a tightening torque of 0.25 ...
Manual EKS Electronic-Key Adapter Profibus-DP 6 Electrical connection Electrical connection may only be performed by authorized personnel trained in EMC and with the device and wiring isolated. For use and operation as per the requirements, a power supply for use in class 2 circuits must be used.
Connection of the switched outputs (for EKS FSA only) Warning! Incorrect connection or errors in the safety-related integration of the EKS FSA can lead to fatal injury. For this reason, observe the following safety aspects: It is not possible to generate a safe signal by using only the switched outputs LA1/LA2 and LB1/LB2.
The danger area on a machine is secured with a fence. To make set-up work on the machine possible with the guard open, an EKS FSA system is integrated in conjunction with a control system, an enabling switch and a safety relay.

The danger area on a machine is secured with a fence. To make set-up work on the machine possible with the guard open, an EKS FSA system is integrated in conjunction with a control system and a safety relay. The safety relay must comply with the following requirements: Detection of short-circuits and earth faults.

Manual EKS Electronic-Key Adapter Profibus-DP 7 Setup During setup proceed as follows: Check mounting and electrical connection are correct (see section 5 Mounting and section 6 Electrical connection). Set device address on the DIP switches on the Electronic-Key adapter (see section 4.4 DIP switch settings).
The GSD file is available free of charge for download under order no. 092 054 on the Internet at www.euchner.de or on request. Different data field sizes are pre-defined in the GSD file for the read/write or read-only transponder type of the Electronic-Key.
The read-only transponder type cannot be used in conjunction with the version EKS FSA. The required module is selected from these pre-defined modules in the GSD file using a configuration software tool.
EKS diagnostics byte The current state of the Electronic-Key adapter can be evaluated by the application via the content of the EKS diagnostics byte (byte no. 8, see section 8.4 Diagnostics message) in the diagnostics area of the bus master.
Reserve Operating mode For read/write operation always set to 0. Bit no. 5 is set on a status change in the EKS diagnostics byte (value Job status not 00 , see section 8.5). This bit can be monitored by the application.
Each time an Electronic-Key is inserted, the Electronic-Key user data area from byte no. 0 defined by the parameters via the GSD file is always transferred first from the EKS to the input area of the bus master. It is then possible to read or write any data area in the next step.
Reserve Operating mode For read-only operation always set to 1. Bit no. 5 is set on a status change in the EKS diagnostics byte (value Job status not 00 , see section 8.5). This bit can be monitored by the application.
Remove dirt from the Electronic-Key and the Electronic-Key adapter using a soft cloth and solvent-free, non-abrasive cleaning agents. Repairs must be performed only by the manufacturer. On version EKS FSA devices, the safety-related functions must be checked at regular intervals 11 Guarantee The “General Terms and Conditions” of EUCHNER GmbH + Co. KG apply.
Manual EKS Electronic-Key Adapter Profibus-DP 13 Appendix The procedure described below is to be followed when reading or writing arbitrary data areas (see section 8.6.2). The bits for the read or write job in the command byte in the output area of the bus master must be actively set and also reset again by the application.
Manual EKS Electronic-Key Adapter Profibus-DP Job in progress The job is now executed. The execution of the job is signaled automatically in the input area of the bus master in byte no. 0 (status byte) (see section 8.6.1) by the value 1 in bit no. 7. Once job execution has been started, bit no.
