The two rotary switchesS1 and S2 for manual valve system IP address assign-
ment are located underneath the window (3).
• SwitchS1: The higher nibble of the last block of the IP address is set at
switchS1. Switch S1 is labeled using the hexadecimal system from 0 to F.
• Switch S2: The lower nibble of the last block of the IP address is set on switch
S2. Switch S2 is labeled using the hexadecimal system from 0 to F.
A comprehensive description of addressing can be found in sectiong9.Preset-
tings on the Bus Coupler.
4.2 Valve Driver
The valve drivers are described in section g12.1.Valve System.
5 PLC Configuration of the AV Valve System
For the bus coupler to exchange data from the modular valve system with the
PLC, the PLC must be able to detect the input and output data lengths of the
valve system. In order to represent the actual configuration of the valve system’s
electrical components in the PLC, you can use the configuration software of the
PLC programming system. This process is known as PLC configuration.
You can use PLC configuration software from various manufacturers for the PLC
configuration. The descriptions in the following sections therefore focus on the
basic procedure for configuring the PLC.
NOTICE
Configuration error!
An incorrect valve system configuration can cause malfunctions in and dam-
age to the overall system.
1. The configuration may only be carried out by qualified personnel
g2.4.Personnel Qualifications.
2. Observe the specifications of the system owner as well as any restrictions
resulting from the overall system.
3. Observe the documentation of your configuration program.
You can determine the system data length on your computer and
transfer it to the system on site without connecting the unit. The data
can then be loaded on the system at a later time on site.
5.1 Readying the PLC configuration keys
Because the electrical components in the valve zone are situated in the base plate
and cannot be identified directly, the PLC configuration keys for the valve zone
and the I/O zone are required to carry out the configuration.
You also need the PLC configuration key when the configuration is carried out in a
different location than that of the valve system.
u Note the PLC configuration key of the individual components in the following
sequence:
- Valve side: The PLC configuration key is printed on the name plate on the
right side of the valve system.
- I/O modules: The PLC configuration key is printed on the top of the modules.
A detailed description of the PLC configuration key can be found in
sectiong12.4.PLC Configuration Key.
5.2 Loading the Device Description File
The EDS file with texts in English for the AES series bus coupler for Eth-
erNet/IP is located on the provided CDR412018133. The file can also
be downloaded online from the Media Center.
Each valve system is equipped with a bus coupler; some contain valves and/or I/
Omodules, depending on your order. Basic settings for the module have been
entered in the EDS file.
u Note that different EDS files have to be used, depending on the bus coupler
used:
• For R412018222: EIP_Aventics-AES-20170206.eds
• For R412088222: EIP_Aventics-AES2-Gen2-XXXXXXXX.eds
1. To configure the valve system PLC, copy the EDS file on CDR412018133 to
the computer containing the PLC configuration program.
2. Enter the IP address of the device and the absolute data lengths of the input
and output data in the PLC configuration program.
The bus coupler’s Ethernet/IP cycle time can be set in a range from 2ms to
9999ms.
u Set the cycle time to the desired value.
