9.2 Start-Up
Only power up the HIQuad X system after the hardware is completely mounted and all the
cables are connected. First start up the control cabinet, then the PES itself.
9.2.1 Starting up the Control Cabinet
Prior to connecting the supply voltage, check if all cables are properly connected, thus ensuring
that no risk exists for controller and system.
9.2.1.1 Test of All Inputs and Outputs
Impermissible parasitic voltage (in particular with 230 VAC against ground or L-) can be
measured using a universal measuring instrument.
HIMA recommends testing every individual terminal for impermissible parasitic voltage.
When testing external cables for isolation resistance, potential short-circuits or open-circuits, no
cable ends must be connected to prevent potential damage or destruction of modules caused
by high voltage.
To check for ground faults, unplug the voltage connection plugs from the power distributor and
disconnect the supply voltage for sensors and the negative pole of actuators.
If the negative pole is grounded during operation, the ground connection must be interrupted for
the duration of the ground fault check. The same applies to the ground connection of ground
fault measuring facility, which may be connected to the system.
A megohmmeter or a special measuring instrument must be used to check each connection
against ground.
9.2.1.2 Voltage Connection
All the HIQuad X modules are inserted in the racks and the cable plugs are screwed on the I/O
modules. Check proper polarity, voltage and ripple for the 24 VDC supply voltage.
9.2.2 Starting up the PES with Processor Modules (F-CPU 01)
Requirements for start-up:
The hardware is installed.
The racks are interconnected.
The PADT network connection is configured such that the modules of the HIQuad X base
plate can be reached. If required, enter a routing for the interface card in use.
A suitable project is available with configured rack ID, IP address and system ID.
To start up the controller with processor modules (F-CPU 01)
1. Connect the supply voltage.
2. Set the system ID and IP address of the left F-CPU 01 processor module:
- Establish a direct physical connection between PADT and processor module.
- In the structure tree, select Hardware within the resource element, and click Online on
the Action Bar.
The Online Hardware tab and the System Login window appear.
- Click the To Module Login button.
- In the Online Hardware, log in to the processor module (double-click the processor
module, the module login window appears).
Use the MAC address (see the label on the module) to read the IP address and the SRS
(Browse button in the login window).
