Page 28: Ftp Server
FTP Server Restricted access through firewall From image version "CX8100_WEC7_LF_v604h_TC31_B4022.20", the firewall for the CX8180 is enabled by default. This means that a passive FTP connection (as used by Microsoft, for example) cannot be established. We therefore recommend using active FTP access. Enter TCP ports 20 and 21 in the firewall. - Page 29 FTP. On the server side, the firewall should be configured such that the data port of the server can be reached by the client. Many FTP servers offer the option to configure the data ports to be used. CX8180 Version: 1.5...

Page 40: Using The Ks8000 Protocol
6.4.5 Using the KS8000 protocol The KS8000 protocol is an open protocol from Beckhoff that can be used to address the BK8100 (RS232) or BK8000 (RS485) Bus Couplers. The protocol is already implemented and ready for use. The two serial RS232/RS485 interfaces of the CX8180 Embedded PC can be configured as BK8xx0masters for connection to the Bus Couplers. -
Page 41: Activating Kl6Xx1 Mode
The KL6xx1 mode can be used for any serial protocols. Custom protocols or other open protocols can also be used. This mode behaves like other Beckhoff terminals with serial interface. It means that the programming and the interface is similar to a serial interface. The Beckhoff supplement blocks (such as ModbusRTU, COMLIB, ...) of the serial interface usually offer the 64-byte mode for the PC interface. -

Page 48: Control Diagnostic Leds
Function F_CX81x0_LED_WD Since the CX8180 supports different protocols, the two LEDs WD and ERR on the CX8180 are not used by the firmware. This allows the user to create his own diagnosis messages. The LEDs can be used to indicate, for example, whether the CX8180 has received an IP address from the DHCP server or whether devices are exchanging data. -

Ethernet device in the world. The MAC-ID consists of two parts. The first part (i.e. the first 3 bytes) is a manufacturer identifier. The identifier for Beckhoff is 00 01 05. The next 3 bytes are assigned by the vendor and implement a unique serial number. The MAC-ID can, for example, be used for the BootP protocol in order to set the TCP/IP number. -
