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)”. -
Page 11: Version Identification Of Cu Switches
Version identification of CU Switches 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. -
Page 12: Beckhoff Identification Code (Bic)
1.6.3 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 13 Fig. 3: 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.

Page 31: Principles Of Fiber-Optic Technology
Commissioning/application notes 5.2.1 Principles of fiber-optic technology When using fiber-optic cables for the transmission of data, there are various factors that influence the signal transmission and have to be observed in order to guarantee reliable transmission. Important principles of fiber-optic technology are described below. Attenuation Less light reaches the end of a connection with fiber-optic cables than is input at the start of the connection. - Page 32 Commissioning/application notes Further influences on the signal transmission In addition to the main influences (attenuation and dispersion) that limit the transmission link, care must be taken when installing and maintaining fiber-optic transmission links. Sharp kinks and micro-bends in the fiber-optic lead to additional reflections in the fiber, as a result of which the influences of the attenuation and dispersion are increased.
- Page 33 In the next step, the attenuation budget, i.e. the attenuation over the entire transmission link, must be calculated. A multimode fiber in the strength 50/125 µm from Beckhoff (ZK1091-1001-xxxx) is used for this example. A maximum attenuation of 0.8 dB/km at a wavelength of 1300 nm is specified in the data sheet for the fiber-optic cable.
- Page 34 Commissioning/application notes Attenuation budget Parameter Number Value Fiber loss attenuation (0.8 dB/km) 2.1 km 1.68 dB Connector insertion attenuation 0.5 dB (0.25 dB) Splice insertion attenuation (0.3 dB) 0.9 dB Attenuation budget 3.08 dB If the attenuation budget is now subtracted from the power budget, a power buffer of 4.42 dB results. This is greater than 3 dB and is therefore sufficient as a buffer for most applications, so that an additional splice or slight soiling of the fiber would not lead to failure of the data transmission.
- Page 35 Commissioning/application notes Evaluation of a fiber-optic transmission link by means of measurement A fiber-optic transmission link can be described and evaluated with parameters from data sheets. In order to obtain a real result for the attenuation over the entire link, however, the link must be measured using an optical power meter (OPM).

Step-by-step instructions for assembling the POF cable The following step-by-step guide describes the correct assembly of a POF cable with a Versatile Link duplex connector. - Page 44 Commissioning/application notes Fig. 30: POF cable stripped over the same length 2. Attaching the connector Push the two cable ends into the connector and the connector back until it stops. The fibers should now protrude no more than 1.5 mm out of the front openings (Fig. Cable inserted in the connector). Close the connector by folding the upper and lower halves together until they engage (Fig.
- Page 45 Commissioning/application notes When inserting the wires into the connector ensure the optical channels are crossed (Tx1 --> Rx2; Tx2 --> Rx1).
