How to Shield
In principle, data transmitting cables should be shielded in
case of RFI.
►
On the controller side, connect the shield to terminals 7
and 10.
►
On the side of the device, connect the shield to the
respective terminals.
Do not connect it to the cabinet ground or any other
ground points.
Connecting HMIs or Laptops
HMIs, e.g., XI582 or XI882A, can be connected via the HMI
interface of the XCL8010 Controller Module. Laptops can be
connected via the HMI interface or via the L
ON
W
ORKS
interface of the XCL8010 Controller Module.
Connecting the XI582 Operator Interface
►
Connect the XI582 Operator Interface to the HMI
interface of the XCL8010
Controller Module by means of
– the XW882 cable or
– the XW582 cable connected with an XW586 cable.
For mounting details, refer to the XI582 Installation
Instructions (Product Literature no.: EN2B-0126GE51).
For cable details, refer to section "Preconfigured Connection
Cables" on page 11.
Connecting the XI882A Operator Interface
►
Connect the XI882 Operator Interface to the HMI
interface of the XCL8010
Controller Module by means of
– the XW882 cable or
– the XW586 cable connected with an XW585 cable.
For cable details, refer to section "Preconfigured Connection
Cables" on page 11.
Connecting Laptops (XL-Online/CARE)
►
Connect a laptop (on which e.g., XL-Online or CARE has
been installed) to the HMI interface or to the L
ON
W
ORKS
interface of the XCL8010
Controller Module by means of
– the XW885 cable or
– the XW585 cable connected with an XW586 Cable.
For cable details, refer to section "Preconfigured Connection
Cables" on page 11.
Connecting Modems
An Excel 800 System can be connected to a modem or an
ISDN terminal adapter via the Modem Interface of the
XCL8010
Controller Module by means of the XW586 cable.
►
Connect the RJ45 female connector of the XW586 cable
to the modem interface of the XCL8010
Controller.
►
Connect the 9-pin sub-D connector to the modem.
For cable details, refer to section "Preconfigured Connection
Cables" on page 11.
