Commissioning/Configuration Acceleration sensors The EP3752-0000 has two accelerometers. Each accelerometer measures the acceleration in all three spatial directions. The accelerometers are offset by 90°. This enables a plausibility check of the measured values. The measured acceleration values can be converted to inclination angles: see chapter on Inclination measurement [} 29].
• Measuring range for sensor 1: Index 0x8000:19 "Range" • Measuring range for sensor 2: Index 0x8030:19 "Range" This setting applies to all axes of the respective sensor. An individual setting for individual axes is not possible. EP3752-0000 Version: 1.4...

Filter Filter mode (FIR and IIR) The EP3752-0000 is equipped with digital filters which, depending on their settings, can adopt the characteristics of a Finite Impulse Response filter (FIR filter), or of an Infinite Impulse Response filter (IIR- Filter). The filters are deactivated by default. The activation takes place •...

Associated and synonymous with each revision there is usually a description (ESI, EtherCAT Slave Information) in the form of an XML file, which is available for download from the Beckhoff web site. From 2014/01 the revision is shown on the outside of the IP20 terminals, see Fig. “EL5021 EL terminal, standard IP20 IO device with batch number and revision ID (since 2014/01)”.
Version identification of EP/EPI/EPP/ER/ERI boxes The serial number/ data code for Beckhoff IO devices is usually the 8-digit number printed on the device or on a sticker. The serial number indicates the configuration in delivery state and therefore refers to a whole production batch, without distinguishing the individual modules of a batch.
7.3.3 Beckhoff Identification Code (BIC) The Beckhoff Identification Code (BIC) is increasingly being applied to Beckhoff products to uniquely identify the product. The BIC is represented as a Data Matrix Code (DMC, code scheme ECC200), the content is based on the ANSI standard MH10.8.2-2016.
Page 53
Fig. 12: Example DMC 1P072222SBTNk4p562d71KEL1809 Q1 51S678294 An important component of the BIC is the Beckhoff Traceability Number (BTN, position 2). The BTN is a unique serial number consisting of eight characters that will replace all other serial number systems at Beckhoff in the long term (e.g.
Electronic access to the BIC (eBIC) Electronic BIC (eBIC) The Beckhoff Identification Code (BIC) is applied to the outside of Beckhoff products in a visible place. If possible, it should also be electronically readable. Decisive for the electronic readout is the interface via which the product can be electronically addressed.
