3 Commissioning
The Modular PLCs XControl: XC-104-…, XC-204-…, XC-303-… need to be
commissioned together with the XN300 slice modules in the corresponding
system block.
3.1 General commissioning instructions
The signals received by analog modules are very small in comparison to digi-
tal signals. In order to ensure that these modules work properly, it is abso-
lutely necessary to route all cables carefully:
• The DIN-rail must have a proper earth connection
• The cables used to connect to the analog signal sources must be as
short as possible and must not be routed parallel to digital signal cables.
• Analog signal cables must be screened.
• The screening must be terminated at a screening bus.
• Do not route the input cables parallel to load circuits.
• Suppressor circuit for all contactor coils (RC suppressors or flyback
diodes)
3.2 USB interface activation for XC-104-… and XC-204-… devices
Due to safety reasons, the USB interface on the device is disabled by default.
To activate the USB interface, follow the steps below:
▶ Connect your PC to the device with a Cat5 (or higher) standard Ethernet
patch cable with RJ45 plug connectors.
