Configuration software KS2000

Bus Terminal controllers of the BCxx50, BXxx20 and BXxx00 series cannot be parameterized and
configured with the KS2000 configuration software. These devices must be configured with the TwinCAT
System Manager.
The KS2000 configuration software offers configuration and diagnostic support for the Bus Terminals
attached to the Bus Terminal Controller.
It is advisable to set the baud rate in the KS2000 configuration software and the BCxx50 BCxx20 and
BXxx00 to 38400 baud (8 data bits, even, 1 stop bit).
COM1 - automatic baud rate detection
The COM 1 interface of the BXxx00 features automatic baud rate detection between
9.6 kbaud and 56.4 kbaud.
Note
Required KS2000 version
Configuration or diagnostics of Bus Terminals at BXxx00 is supported from KS2000 version
4.3.14.
Note
In some Bus Terminals (e.g. KL25xx, KL6811, KL6201, KL6401) the following parameters must be set in
order to be able to use the configuration dialogs:
• A PLC project or boot project must be deactivated.
• The BX controller must be in its default configuration. Set the manufacturer's setting or switch to Config
Mode in the TwinCAT System Manager (blue TwinCAT icon).
• The BX controller must be in FreeRun mode. Activate it with the TwinCAT System Manager.
You can now log in with the KS2000 configuration software via ADS (port 100) or the serial cable and use
the KS2000 dialogs in the Bus Terminals.
