Required TwinCAT version
TwinCAT 2.11 R3 is required for the programming of the CX80xx series. Older TwinCAT
versions and TwinCAT 3.x are not supported!
1. Connect K-bus or E-bus terminals to the controller.
2. Connect voltage to the CX80xx (
).
3. Connect Ethernet (CX80xx X001) to your network or a direct connection to your PC (make sure in the
case of a peer-to-peer connection that the IP addressing in your PC is set to DHCP).
4. Wait a while, approx. 1 to 2 minutes; either the CX80xx will be assigned an address by the DHCP server
(usually fast) or, if it does not find a DHCP server, it uses a local IP address.
