INTRODUCTION
The 2XX-EIP has been designed for the industrial environment where interfacing through an
EtherNet IP network is desired. When coupled with a 205, 210, or 225 digital weight indicator,
it can provide the weight reading and control of multiple scale commands. The interface card
resides in the main enclosure of the indicator and has a 16-pin dual in-line connector to
provide an easy connection to the indicator's internal hardware. A single RJ-45 connector is
provided to connect to the EtherNet IP network. The 2XX-EIP supports 10/100 Mbit, full or half-
duplex operation.
The purpose of this manual is to provide you with a guide through the installation and setup of
the 2XX-EIP EtherNet/IP interface card. Please read it thoroughly before attempting to install it
in your indicator and keep it available for future reference.

INSTALLATION
Mounting the 2XX-EIP Option Card
NOTE: Should your indicator come with the 2XX-EIP option card already installed, the
following section describing mounting does not apply. Proceed to the Node Address Setup
section.
CAUTION! This board contains static sensitive components. Improper
handling can result in damage to or destruction of the components or board.
Such actual and/or consequential damage IS NOT covered under warranty.
1. Make sure the power to the indicator is OFF. Unplug the AC power cord.
2. Loosen the gland connectors where the AC power cord and any other cables enter the
indicator.
3. Remove the rear panel on the indicator.
On the 205/210, remove the 12 acorn nuts securing the rear panel to the front housing.
On the 225, remove the 14 acorn nuts securing the rear panel to the front housing.
4. Separate the rear panel from the front housing on the indicator.
5. Lift the panel from the main housing, taking care not to stretch the cable and wires between
the panel and main housing. Lay the panel on the workbench next to the indicator.
6. Referring to the illustrations on page 3, locate the threaded stand-off and the OPTION
BOARD connector on the indicator mainboard.
205/210 – The threaded stand-off is below P3 and the OPTION BOARD connector
is P10.
225 – The threaded stand-off is near P9 and the OPTION BOARD connector is P15.
7. To install the option 2XX-EIP card, carefully align the connector P4 (pins on the bottom side
of the 2XX-EIP board) with connector P10 on the 205/210 or P15 on the 225 mainboard
and then apply even downward pressure to the end of the 2XX-EIP board (with P4 pins on
the bottom side).
8. Align the hole in the 2XX-EIP board with the threaded stand-off on the indicator main board
and using the lock washer and screw supplied with the 2XX-EIP board, secure the 2XX-EIP
to the indicator mainboard.
9. To attach the ground wire:
On the 205/210, remove a 6-32 nut and
washer from the threaded stud at the corner
of the indicator mainboard.
On the 225, remove a 6-32 nut and washer
from the threaded stud at the center of the
indicator mainboard.
10. Connect the ground wire from the option card by
placing the ring terminal over the 6-32 threaded
stud.
11. Reinstall the washer and 6-32 nut and tighten.
NOTE: The ground wire attachment example
shown is on the 205/210 mainboard. The
attachment for the 225 is similar.

Ethernet Cable Installation
1. Loosen an unused cable gland connector for the cable.
2. Insert the Ethernet cable (CAT 5 or equivalent) through the gland connector and into the
enclosure.
3. Consult your network administrator for the proper procedure to terminate the cable.
4. After the cable has been terminated, plug the cable into the RJ-45 jack on the 2XX-EIP.

2XX-EIP Status LED’S
The 2XX-EIP EtherNet/IP Interface Card contains three LEDs to indicate the communication
status with the indicator mainboard.
CS, Chip Select
LK, Link
ML, Main Line
If the CS (Chip Select) LED is off, communications may
have been lost between the EtherNet IP module and the
indicator mainboard. Cycle power (press ON/OFF key
twice) to re-establish communications.
The LK (Link) LED displays the communication status.
It will be on or flashing rapidly when communications between the 2XX-EIP and the EtherNet
IP network are established.
The ML (Main Line) LED will be on to indicate the 2XX-EIP is powered up and running.
IMPORTANT: A load cell connection is required when testing the indicator.
An ERR AL or ERR AH condition will cause the communications from the
mainboard and the module to be very slow and will inhibit communications
with the EtherNet/IP module.

RE-INSTALLING THE REAR PANEL
When the installation is complete:
1. Remove the excess cable from the indicator enclosure.
2. Make certain no cables or wires are exposed between the main housing and rear panel and
then place the rear panel onto the main housing.
3. Secure the panel to the main housing with the acorn nuts (12 on the 205/210, 14 on the
225) removed earlier.
4. Tighten the gland connector nut to seal the cable.
Do not over-tighten the connector but make certain they are snug.
DO NOT USE TOOLS! Finger-tighten only!
Make sure any unused gland connectors are plugged.
5. If required, install the lead and wire calibration seal.
205/210 INDICATOR SETUP
With the 2XX-EIP option card installed, a sub-menu (Option) has been placed after

CONFIGURE THE PLC USING RSLogix5000
Either create a new project or use an existing one, set the program in “Offline” mode. Add the
module to the configuration in the PLC. Start by right click the EtherNet/IP module/bridge in the
I/O configuration, and select “New Module”.
Now a dialogue window will appear. In this dialogue window, select “Generic Ethernet module”
and press OK.

CONFIGURE THE PLC USING RSLogix5000, CONT.
In the next dialogue window, RSLogix 5000 will ask for information regarding the
communication to the module. First, enter a name for the module. This name will create a tag
in RSLogix5000, which can be used to access the memory location in the PLCs memory
where the data for the module will be stored. With the name entered, press Next.
In the next dialogue box enter a value for the time between each scan of the module, called
Request Packet Interval (RPI). Make sure that “Inhibit Module” isn’t checked. After this, press
Finish.

CONFIGURE THE PLC USING RSLogix5000, CONT.
Now the module has been added to the I/O configuration in RSLogix5000. The main screen
will look as follows.
Now go online and download the configuration to the PLC.
1. Select Go Online in the communication menu.
2. A new window will open.
3. Select download.
4. A new window will pop up with the question if you want to download the configuration.
5. Select “Download”. The configuration will now be downloaded to the PLC.
Now it’s possible to access the data exchanged by ControlLogix5000 and the module. To do
this, open the “Controller Tags” window and go to monitor tags. Three tags named
“Cardinal_2XX:C”, “Cardinal_2XX:I”, and ”Cardinal_2XX:O” should be visible, representing the
three instances configuration, input, and output. The configuration instance will be created
even if we selected zero as its size. The Cardinal_2XX:I tag is data coming from the module
and the Cardinal_2XX:O tag holds data going to the module.
