  • Page 76 Chapter 8: General I/O Configuration The digital outputs used in the OCS have electronic short circuit protection and current limiting. While these electronic protections work in most applications, some application may require external fusing on these outputs. The digital outputs in the 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.

    Some protective measures need to be determined by an engineer. Below you will find recommendations that will work for many applications. If you have additional questions on protection from inductive load, consult an application engineer or Horner Technical Support.

    Beeper Acknowledgement The XL15 Prime contains an internal beeper that provides an audible acknowledgment when an operator touches a graphic object that accepts touch input. When the graphic object is enabled, a short 5ms tone is emitted. When the graphic object is disabled, a longer 100ms tone is emitted to announce that the graphical object is not currently accepting the touch input.

    19.4.1: Backup OCS Data When initiated, the user can manually copy register contents onto the an alternate section of onboard flash memory of the OCS. This will have result in backing up all the registers and controller settings (Network ID, etc.) that would otherwise be lost due to a memory failure.

    %SR164.3 is set to 1 only when an automatic restore operation is performed, not on a manual one. This bit is reset to the value of “0” when a new backup is created. Restoring of data can be manually performed by selecting RESTORE option from the Backup / Restore Data menu. This causes the controller to reset.

  • Page 184: Autoload

    19.6: AutoLoad This System Menu option permits the user to specify whether the OCS automatically loads the application AUTOLOAD.PGM located in Removable Media. When the AutoLoad setting is enabled (set to YES), it can either be manually initiated or automatically initiated at power- The automatic initiation will happen only in the following two cases: When there is no application program in the OCS and a valid AUTOLOAD.PGM is available in the removable media of the device.

    19.7: AutoRun This System Menu option, when enabled (YES), allows the user to automatically place the OCS into RUN mode after the AutoLoad operation or automatic Restore Data operation. When the AutoRun setting is disabled (NO), the OCS remains in the IDLE mode after a Restore Data or AutoLoad operation.

    Modbus (serial) is a popular, de-facto standard protocol that allows industrial devices from multiple manufacturers to easily share data in real-time. For Modbus serial communications, the XL15 Prime can act as either a Master or a Slave. Modbus protocol (serial) allows for one master and multiple slaves. The master always initiates the conversation by sending a request to a particular slave.

  • Page 189: Modbus Master Overview

    For complete Modbus Master instructions, please refer to the Help file in Cscape. When acting as a Modbus master, there are two primary mechanisms used by the XL15 Prime to allow the user to specify the data to be read/written from/to the slaves.

  • Page 190: Modbus Addressing Table

    Chapter 20: Modbus Communications Modbus Addressing Table To access XL15 Prime registers, a Modbus Master must be configured with the appropriate register type and offset. This is usually accomplished with one of two methods: Method 1: The first method uses Traditional Modbus References, in which the high digit represents the register type, and the lower digits represent the register offset (starting with Register 1 for each type).

    Chapter 21: Prime OCS Battery Chapter 21: Prime OCS Battery 21.1: Safety 21.2: Replacing the Battery 21.1: Safety ALERT:  This does not include the XL Series, only the Prime Series. The Prime OCS has an improved memory architecture that does not require a battery for program or register retention. The onboard lithium coin-cell battery runs the real time clock and is user replaceable with an expected lifetime of seven (7) to ten (10) years.

  • Page 193: Replacing The Battery

    The Prime OCS uses a lithium coin-type battery with part number HE-BAT013, with harness and connector available from Horner APG. WARNING: Replacing the battery is a delicate procedure. If unsure about the procedure, please contact Horner Tech Support via Horner Contact Us Below are the steps to replace the battery: Make sure the user program and any data stored in retentive memory is backed up.

    Firmware Update Details Download Firmware The XL15 Prime OCS products contain field updatable firmware to allow new features to be added to the product. Firmware updates should only be performed when a new feature or correction is required. WARNING: Firmware updates should only be performed when the equipment being controlled by the OCS is in a safe, non-operational state.

    Chapter 22: Firmware Updates Firmware Update Details NOTE: Updating firmware clears the application program, screens, configurations, and register data. If required, backup the program and register data before updating firmware. The controller’s user manual contains instructions for doing backups, but for additional instructions, see See MAN1011: Firmware Update Manual / Boot Loader Manual See MAN1362: Firmware Update Manual: Prime Series Only...

    Check that a Loaded Protocol or ladder is not actively using MJ1. Taking the controller out of Run Mode from the System Menu on the controller will make MJ1 available to Cscape. Successful communications with USB-to-serial adapters vary. If in doubt, Horner APG offers a USB to serial adapter: part number HE-CPK.
