NOTE: The digital outputs used on the EXL10 OCS are “sourcing” outputs. This means the output applies a positive voltage to the output pin when turned ON. When turned off, the output applies approximately zero volts with respect to the I/O ground.
Page 77
The digital outputs in the EXL10 OCS are typically controlled via %Q bits in the register mapping. Some of the outputs are designed for high-speed applications and can be used for PWM or frequency output applications.
Relay outputs are designed to switch loads that typically have high voltage or current requirements or require the isolation that relays provide. NOTE: The design of the EXL10 OCS does not require external coil power for the relays to function. The relays will activate anytime the EXL10 OCS is powered.
NOTE: Refer to the datasheet for EXL10 OCS model being used for details on jumper settings. NOTE: The digital inputs on the EXL10 OCS are designed for low voltage DC inputs. The inputs are designed to support both positive and negative input modes. The mode is set by a jumper setting and a configuration parameter in Cscape.
MAN1029-08-EN_EXL10_UserManual Analog Inputs NOTE: See the datasheet for the EXL10 OCS model being used for jumper settings and see the appropriate page in this manual (see Index) for details on how to use Cscape to configure the digital filtering. The analog inputs on the EXL10 OCS allow voltage or current measurement from a variety of devices. The voltage or current mode is set though jumpers on the unit and settings in Cscape.
Universal Analog Inputs NOTE: See the data sheet for the EXL10 OCS model being used for jumper settings and see the appropriate pages in this manual (see Index) for details on how to use Cscape to configure the digital filtering.
Torque Rating—2 in-lbs (0.2 N-m). Analog Outputs NOTE: Refer to the datasheet for EXL10 OCS model being used for details on jumper settings. The analog outputs on EXL10 OCS devices provide high resolution voltage or current outputs. The voltage or current selection is controlled with jumpers and configuration settings in Cscape.
HIGH SPEED I/O (HSC / PWM) Overview In addition to the compliment of simple analog and digital I/O, several of the EXL10 OCS I/O modules support High Speed Counting (HSC) I/O functions and may also support Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) Output functions (non-relay modules).

MAN1029-08-EN_EXL10_UserManual High-Speed Counter (HSC) Functions The EXL10 supports either two or four very high speed, configurable counters. There are four dedicated inputs that can be configures to a number of different options. each of the counters can run in one of five modes.
Page 86
MAN1029-08-EN_EXL10_UserManual 9.3.2 Totalize In totalize mode, the accumulator is simply incremented or decremented each time the input transitions in a specific direction. The totalizer supports the following modes: Internal This mode ties the input to the counter to an internal 10MHz or 1MHz clock.
Page 87
MAN1029-08-EN_EXL10_UserManual NOTE: Counter triggers off the rising edge of the signal. Rising Edge Signal Falling Edge Signal Three different options are available to reset the current count. They are: • Configured reset value When configuring the Totalize function, a value may be specified under the Counts per Rev column.
Page 88
MAN1029-08-EN_EXL10_UserManual 9.3.3 Pulse Width Measurement In pulse width measurement mode, the high-speed input can measure the width of a pulse stream in one of two modes and provides a continuous indication of the last sampled value. In this mode the Disable and Latch special functions are allowed.
Page 89
MAN1029-08-EN_EXL10_UserManual 9.3.4 Period Measurement In period measurement mode, the high-speed input can measure the period of a pulse stream in one of two modes and provides a continuous indication of the last sampled value. In this mode the Disable and Latch special functions are allowed.
Page 90
MAN1029-08-EN_EXL10_UserManual 9.3.5 Quadrature Quadrature mode uses two HSC inputs; any of the four HSC inputs can be assigned for this purpose. Quadrature mode works much like the totalizer except the accumulator will automatically increment or decrement based on the rotation phase of the two inputs. See the following example for more details. Quadrature inputs are typically used for reporting the value of an encoder.
Page 91
MAN1029-08-EN_EXL10_UserManual 9.3.6 Register Match Totalizer & Quadrature counter modes support a register match function. When the accumulator value matches either the Match 1 or Match 2 value configured in the corresponding %AQ registers, a high- speed output can Turn On, Turn Off, or Toggle. An internal %I register mirrors the output state whether the high-speed output is configured or not.
Page 92
MAN1029-08-EN_EXL10_UserManual 9.3.7 HSC Functions The high-speed input on the EXL10 contains many optional tasks, all of which can be disabled, or set to an internal pre-assigned register (Assigned %Q) or to one of the external High-speed inputs (External Input #1, 2, 3 or 4). Also, they can be set as an “overflow interrupt” or “underflow interrupt” meaning that they will occur when either the Overflow or Underflow, input has been activated.

SERIAL COMMUNICATIONS 10.1 Overview All EXL10 OCS models provide two independent serial ports, on the first 8-pin modular RJ45 connector, which is labeled MJ1/MJ2. The MJ1 serial port is RS232 while the MJ2 port is RS485. By default, MJ1 can be connected to the COM port of a PC running Cscape, for OCS programming.
MAN1029-08-EN_EXL10_UserManual Figure 10.1 – Serial Port Wiring & Dip Switches 10.4 RS485 Termination Proper RS485 termination minimizes signal reflections and improves reliability. Both the MJ2 and MJ3 serial ports allow an internal termination resistor to be placed across pins 1 and 2 by DIP Switch Setting.
10.6 Cscape Programming via Serial Port The EXL10 OCS MJ1 and MJ3 serial ports support CsCAN Programming Protocol. If a PC COM port is connected to the EXL10 OCS MJ1 or MJ3 serial port, Cscape can access the EXL10 OCS for programming and monitoring.
11.2 Port Description The EXL10 OCS CAN ports implement the ISO 11898-2 physical layer and the CAN 2.0A data link layer standards. Also, since the CAN ports are powered by an internal isolated power supply, external CAN power is not required.
The CAN1 port supports CsCAN Programming Protocol. If a PC has a CAN interface installed (via PCI card or USB), and the PC CAN port is connected to the EXL10 OCS CAN1 port, Cscape can access the EXL10 OCS for programming and monitoring.

MAN1029-08-EN_EXL10_UserManual CHAPTER 13: DOWNLOADABLE COMMUNICATION PROT0COLS 13.1 Overview Through loadable protocol device drivers, certain models of the OCS family can provide the ability to exchange data with remote devices such as variable-frequency drives, PLCs, and remote I/O devices. This feature greatly expands the OCS ’s control capability with negligible effect on the OCS ’s ladder scan time.
Page 117
MAN1029-08-EN_EXL10_UserManual These basic types are also subdivided into Read or Write operations. For polled operations, a Read operation only reads from a remote device. Likewise, a Read/Write operation continuously reads from the remote device unless the target OCS register value changes from one ladder scan to another. In this case, the new OCS value is written to the target device.
MAN1029-08-EN_EXL10_UserManual 13.2 Protocol Config After opening Cscape, choose Program → Protocol Config, and select the port drop-down box to select a protocol device driver.

MAN1029-08-EN_EXL10_UserManual 13.5 Scan List This can be accessed from the Scan List button on the Protocol Config screen or the Mapping button on the Device List screen and provides a Scan List of the Data Mapping entries. To transfer data between the OCS and remote target, a Scan List must be created that defines each transaction.
MAN1029-08-EN_EXL10_UserManual 13.6 Data Mapping Configuration (Scan List Entry) Update Type This field specifies the direction and what triggers the transfer of data between the OCS and target device for a mapping entry. Polled Read On every transaction scan, a read-only target device register(s) transaction occurs. Polled Read/Write On every transaction scan, a read target device register transaction occurs unless a local register value has changed.
Page 124
MAN1029-08-EN_EXL10_UserManual Polled Read/Write/Init On every transaction scan, a read target device register transaction occurs unless a local register value has changed. The write transaction only updates those local registers that have changed in value. If several non-consecutive local registers (contained in a single mapping entry) change value between transaction scans, it takes several consecutive scans to write each changed register.
MAN1029-08-EN_EXL10_UserManual CHAPTER 14: USER INTERFACE 14.1 Overview This chapter presents the user interface (or operator view) of the EXL10 and some of the model specific characteristics of the EXL10 as compared to the rest of the OCS line.

MAN1029-08-EN_EXL10_UserManual On objects that represent non-discrete information, more action may be required beyond that of simply touching the object. For example, the slider object requires the operator to touch and slide the control in the direction desired. Alternately, alpha-numeric entry objects invoke a pop-up alpha-numeric keypad for additional user input.
Page 128
MAN1029-08-EN_EXL10_UserManual Once the desired value is entered, pressing the Enter key moves that value into the object (and the corresponding OCS register) and the alpha-numeric keypad disappears. Alternately, pressing the ESC key any time before the Enter key cancels the operation, leaves the objects current value unchanged, and the alpha-numeric keypad disappears.
MAN1029-08-EN_EXL10_UserManual 14.4 Screen Navigation To allow the operator to change screens, a screen jump object is generally used. This object may be visually represented as a 3-D button (responding to touch) or remain invisible and logically tied to an OCS register.
MAN1029-08-EN_EXL10_UserManual 14.5 Ladder Based Screen Navigation Ladder logic can use several techniques to control screen navigation. Coils can be tied to %D registers to make them screen coils. These coils have two modes, switch and alarm. If the ladder program energizes an alarm display coil, the screen associated with this coil is displayed and overrides the normal user screens.
MAN1029-08-EN_EXL10_UserManual 14.7 Touch (Slip) Sensitivity Touch slip sensitivity is preset to meet most applications; however, adjustment is available to reduce the sensitivity for touch release. That is, once a graphical object (button) is touched and held by a finger, the default touch slip sensitivity allows for a slight slip of the finger on the graphical object before the EXL10 assumes touch has been released (equates to approximately a quarter inch of movement with a stylus).
MAN1029-08-EN_EXL10_UserManual 14.8 Alarms Alarm presentation to the operator is highly configurable and beyond the scope of this document to describe fully. For more information refer to the graphics editor help file. This section presents a typical configuration thereby providing an introductory description on what the operator should expect.
