1 Conventions 1.1 Warning signs, symbols and text formatting used in this manual Explanation of the warning signs, symbols and text formatting used in this operating and service manual: • DANGER DANGER Instructions with this symbol and/or the signal word DANGER warn the user of situations that will cause severe injury or death if the specified instructions are not observed! * •...
A general instruction consists of two elements: The symbol with text (including NOTICE, if applicable) and the text of the instruction: For example: NOTICE The current operating manual is available online from the E°EDP (Eckelmann ° Electronic Documentation Platform) at www.eckelmann.de/elds. 30.03.2023 6/38...
2 Safety instructions This operating manual is part of the device. It must be kept in the vicinity of the controller as well as for future use so that it can be consulted when required. The operating manual must be available to the operating and maintenance personnel at all times in order to avoid operating errors.
ATTENTION Warning of damage to goods! In our experience, the transmission of fault messages is not yet functional during the putting into service (no internet connection, no telephone line installed, etc.). It is strongly recommended in such cases to monitor the controller via the CAN bus using a system centre, a store computer or an operator terminal and to enable the transmission of fault messages, for example using a GSM modem via a mobile telephone system.
2.3 Intended Use SIOX extension modules (Serial IO-Extension) are designed exclusively for the intended use: SIOX extension modules expand higher-level controllers by 8 relay outputs and 12 digital inputs each. Whether and how many extension modules are needed depends on the functions that are made available via the higher-level controllers for their intended use.

3 SIOX Tasks SIOX extension modules (Serial IO-Extension) expand higher-level controllers by 8 relay outputs and 12 digital inputs each. These controllers supply the extension modules with power and communicate with them. Whether and how many extension modules are needed depends on the range of functions provided by the higher-level controllers and/or required to perform your tasks.
New products from March 2023 • A PE terminal point has been added on the left side of the housing below SIOX SUPPLY, to which the PE must be connected, for details see chapter Terminal assignment SIOX SUPPLY, protective earth conductor &...
Page 13
PE must be connected! • Interfaces SIOX IN: connector for communication with the higher-level controller SIOX OUT: if needed, connector for data transmission to other extension modules The detailed device and terminal assignments are listed in the chapter SIOX connection and terminal assignment.
• If the controller is used in any way not specified by Eckelmann AG, the protection supported by the extension module can be compromised, see chapter Intended Use.
4.1 Use of the relay outputs / digital inputs DANGER Warning about dangerous electrical voltage! Danger to life - Danger of electric shock! External voltage 230 V AC can be present at these terminals! • Relay outputs 230 V AC NO mixed operation of the voltage levels! Danger to life - Danger of electric shock! Low voltage (230 V AC) and safety extra-low voltage (24 V AC/DC) must not be connected together at the relay outputs! There is a danger to life as 230 V AC may be present in the 24 V supply system! •...
4.2 DIN rail mounting SIOX extension modules are snapped onto a DIN rail using two claws on the rear side, for details see chapter Mounting on the DIN rail. ATTENTION Important safety instructions! The unit may only be operated mounted on a DIN rail as an integrated regulation and control unit (EN60730) and can be mounted in a row without spacing.
4.2.1 Mounting on the DIN rail DANGER Warning about dangerous electrical voltage! Danger to life - Danger of electric shock! The safety regulations and work safety instructions must be observed for the mounting. All plug connectors may only be inserted and removed in a de-energised state, see chapter Handling Wide COMBICON Plugs.
4.2.2 Removal from the DIN rail DANGER Warning about dangerous electrical voltage! Danger to life - Danger of electric shock! The safety regulations and work safety instructions must be observed for the removal. All plug connectors may only be inserted and removed in a de-energised state, see chapter Handling Wide COMBICON Plugs.
4.2.3 Handling Wide COMBICON Plugs DANGER Warning of dangerous electrical voltage! Danger to life - Danger of electric shock! For assembly, the safety regulations and the work safety instructions must be observed. All plug-in connections may only be plugged and unplugged in a de-energised state. Correct handling Mating connectors must be plugged or unplugged vertically and without canting.
Danger of destruction of components! SIOX expansion modules may only be connected to each other or to a higher-level controller when no voltage is present! In the event of any mix-up of the SIOX data cable (RJ45) with an Ethernet network cable with PoE (Power over Ethernet), participating...
