Short description

Serial interface modules of the SX 2×0/A series are used as an option directly in a CP 23x or in a CP 26x

CPU module.

They enable the connection of an RS 232. RS 422/485-A or Current Loop serial interface. This interface

operates in full duplex mode with a maximum transmission rate of 115.000 baud.

The Current Loop interface (SM 220/A) functions both for transmitter as well as for the receiver in active

or passive operation. The operating mode is switched on the side on the PCB via DIP switches.

Short description

The BL 210/B (CANopen) and the BL 27x/x series are bus coupler modules that, in combination with I/O

modules, enable the decentralization and transmission from module islands.

The BL 27x/x series is used as a bus coupler between EtherCAT and K-bus. Modules of the system can

thereby be operated as remote I/O islands. The BL 27x/x can be connected to a control via EtherCAT and

is thereby made an EtherCAT slave. Two variants of the BL27x series are available:- With four additional

digital inputs (BL 27x/A)- With four additional digital outputs (BL 27x/B)

As a special feature, the BL 272/x enables the connection of interface modules for fieldbuses (FM 200/A)

and serial in terfaces (SM 210/A, SM 220/A, SM 230/A). This enables the operation of such interfaces

remotely from CPU modules.

This feature is also referred to as “bus via bus communication”.

The status of the module is indicated via a status LED. The LEDs on the RJ45 sockets provide information

about the link and activity status of the respective network connection. Each digital input/output also has

a status display (active/ not active).

These modules are attached directly to a CPU module or can be operated with all KEBA controls by means

of bus couplers.
