1. GENERAL INFORMATION Safety instruction These manual points out possible danger for your personal safety and gives instruction how to avoid property dam- age. The following safety symbols are used to draw the reader's attention to the safety instructions included in this manual.
E-T-A provides the ideal solution for machine and panel builders with the intelligent protection system comprising the REX12D and REX22D circuit protectors and the EM12D-TMB interface module. The system combines the well- proven quality of DC24V overcurrent protection with the communication capabilities to superordinate bus systems.
2.1 Design of the Entire System Figure 1: System overview The Modbus controller EM12D-TMB is the centre of the ControlPlex ® system. It collects all information of the REX12D and REX22D electronic circuit protectors and forwards it to the superordinate Modbus server and thus to the superordinate control unit.
2.2 Dimensions Bus Controller EM12D-TMB Figure 2: Dimensions of the EM12D-TMB 2.3 Status Indication and Terminals Figure 3: Status indicators and terminals EM12D-TMB light emitting diode “CE/CM” EM12D-light emitting diode CE/CM The LED CE/CM shows the status of the communication unit. Available LED colours are red, green and yellow/or- ange.
3. MOUNTING AND INSTALLATION 3.1 Mounting of the System The preferred mounting position of the EM12D-TMB is horizontal. Figure 4: Mounting position of the EM12D-TMB 3.2 Power Supply of the Modbus RTU Controller Power supply of the Modbus controller is via the line entry terminals LINE+ and 0V. 3.3 Terminals for the Voltage Supply and the ELBus ®...
Figure 5: Modbus RTU connection Preferably, the connection should be effected with a three-pole shielded cable. The cable length between the Mod- bus controller EM12D-TMB and the Modbus server has to comply with the benchmarks. Benchmarks: cable length of RS485 approx. 1200 m approx. 110 Ohm cable length of RS485 approx.
4. OPERATING MODES OF THE DEVICE EM12D-TMB 4.1 Operating Mode: System Start The Modbus controller is initialised by applying the supply voltage. The device will carry out implemented pro- gramme memory tests and self test routines. During this time a communication via the interfaces is not possible. 4.2 Operating Mode: Critical Failure If a failure is detected during the self test routines, the Modbus controller will change into operating mode “critical failure”.
4.5 Operating Mode: Faultless Operation If there is neither a critical nor a non-critical failure and if there is a connection to the superordinate control unit, the Modbus controller will change into the operating mode “faultless operation”. The parameters will be transmitted from the superordinate control unit to the Modbus controller and will be saved there.
4.8 Signalling of Operating Conditions on Circuit Protector REX12D/REX22D The different operating modes of the REX12D/REX22D are indicated as follows: Operating condition LED for signalling Condition of load output channel switched off by momentary switch dark channel switched on by momentary switch and orange switched off by communication channel switched on by momentary switch and...
5. BASIC FUNCTIONS OF THE ENTIRE SYSTEM 5.1 Internal Cycle Times The cycle time via the ELBus ® is 530ms. During the aforementioned period the status and the load current of each circuit protector is cyclically transmitted to Controller EM12D-TMB. Figure 7: Cycle times of the system 5.2 Hot Swap of Circuit Protectors The electronic circuit protector REX12D/REX22D can at any time be mounted side by side with a supply module or...
6. COMMUNICATION VIA MODBUS RTU 6.1 ControlPlex ® Controller Model The EM12D-TMB has an internal ELBus ® interface enabling the communication with the electronic circuit protector REX12D and REX22D. Up to 16 channels of the REX12D and REX22D electronic circuit protectors (single chan- neled, multi-channeled or a mixed population) can be connected to the supply module.
For putting the device into service again, the faulty circuit protector has to be removed and the supply voltage has to be switched off and on again. 6.2 Physical Interface The physical interface used is RS485. Protocol used is the Modbus RTU protocol. It is unsusceptible to EMC dis- turbances and allows artless implementation of the bus communication.

Figure 12: Display of communication speed The left DIP switch fixes the parity. The switching status is defined as follows: Figure 11: Switching status of the DIP switches In our example, the DIP switch is set to position “1” and the parity bit is set to “none”. The DIP switches 2 / 3 / 4 define the communication speed.
