2. Configure AMC 600
2.1 Software
2.1.1 Download AMC 600 software
Download the AMC 600 software from https://www.deif.com/software.
Use the filter to select either AMC 600 or AWC 500 products to get the specific software packages for download.
CODESYS IDE
The CODESYS IDE is found under AMC 300 product
AMC 600
• AMC 600 CODESYS Target Support package.
• AMC 600 CODESYS run-time for PCM6.1.
This manual also applies to AWC 500 and the corresponding packages are located here:
AWC 500
• AWC 500 CODESYS Target Support package.
• AWC 500 CODESYS run-time for PCM5.2
2.1.2 System requirements
The requirements for the development PC to install the Development packages, PC tools and drivers are:
• Microsoft Windows 10 or later, 32 bit version.
• Microsoft Windows 10 or later, 64 bit version (Recommended).
As the AMC 600 supports SSH (Secure Shell) and SCP (Secure Copy) as basic communication protocols, it can be accessed from
any system supporting these protocols (if enabled).
Not all browsers are suitable for this software. We recommend to use Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox.
2.1.3 PC tools
The tools WinSCP and PuTTY are used throughout the documentation for additional configuration of the AMC 600
Bonjour service – mDNS service
We recommend the tool Bonjour service as mDNS service.
Download Bonjour service from the official website: https://support.apple.com/kb/DL999?locale=en_US
PuTTY — SSH client (Linux command shell)
The free tool PuTTY for Linux command shell access (SSH communication).
Download PuTTY from the official website: http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/
WinSCP – SFTP client (for file transfer)
For secure file transfer (SFTP or SCP communication), for example for configuration and software updating, we recommend the free
tool WinSCP.
User's manual 4189341335A EN Page 6 of 33
Download WinSCP from the official web-site: https://winscp.net/eng/index.php
Windows PowerShell SSH and SCP are built-in features. Some of the more advanced cryptographic features require Linux, Docker
for Windows or WMware.
2.2 Connection
2.2.1 Power connection
The AMC 600 requires a 24 VDC power supply to the power supply terminals of the PDM6·1/PDM6·2 module.
More information
See the Data sheet for the technical specifications and the Installation instructions for how to wire the power supply.
The AMC 600 system software is operational for approx. 20 seconds from power on.
NOTICE
Sudden power off
The AMC 600 file system is tolerant to sudden power off, and parameters are automatically stored in the non-volatile
memory. No special shutdown procedure is required.
2.3 Programming connection
2.3.1 Programming connection
The AMC 600 is configured and programmed via the Ethernet ports on the PCM6·1 module, both for development (direct access)
and when installed on site (remote).
The configuration is typically made with the AMC 600 web page. Special configuration can be made by editing configuration files
stored in the AMC 600 file system, and accessed via the SSH (Linux command shell) or SFTP (file transfer).
For service purposes by DEIF or direct access to the PCM6.2 in special cases, the Service port is used for SSH (Linux command
shell) access via USB serial communication.
2.4 Access with Ethernet port
The PCM module must be connected to the development computer directly with an Ethernet cable or over an Ethernet network. By
default, the PCM only offers secure connections.
2.4.1 Default IP configuration
The AMC 600 is supplied with the following default network configuration (static IP address) on Ethernet port 1 (eth0):
IP 192.168.20.13
Mask 255.255.255.0
Gateway 192.168.20.12
Ethernet port 2 (eth1) is by default configured for DHCP.
User's manual 4189341335A EN Page 7 of 33
2.4.2 Default Hostname
Default hostname is:
pcm61-sn[<1>]
Where sn is the serial number of the PCM6.1 module.
A PC setup to IPv4 with a Link-local address and mDNS support can access the system web pages on:
https://[hostname]
2.4.3 Default User and Password
The AMC 600 is supplied by default with one user account (root):
Default username root
Default password deif7800
Additional user roles and passwords (Operator, Service, Administrator) can be added in the Users menu.
2.4.4 Test connection
Your PC must be setup to the same subnet range, that is to say, by giving your computer the IP 192.168.20.2:
User's manual 4189341335A EN Page 8 of 33
To test the connection open a web-browser and enter the IP (https://192.168.20.13) of the AMC 600. This will show the AMC 600
webpage.
2.4.5 Test connection with Ping
The connection can be tested by sending a ping to the AMC 600:
ping 192.168.20.13
If there is no connection:
• Check the Ethernet cable.
• Check the power to the AMC 600 (Green Power LED status of PDM6.x module or PDM5.1/PCM5.2 for AWC 500).
• Check your PC firewall settings.
• Check if the AMC 600 is configured with another IP address than the default.
More information
See Access with the Service port for how to view the existing IP address.
If the network settings are OK, then continue with the Programming.
Continue below to see how to make a connection to the AMC 600 with the SSH client (PuTTY) or the SFTP client (WinSCP).

4. Additional configuration
4.1 Change advanced network configuration
Under Tools > Network configuration the network interface configurations for each port (eg. eth0 or eth1) or bridged
connections between ports (eg. br0) can be configured.
4.1.1 Ports
When configuring a bridge up, you can specify the Port that should be included in the bridge.
4.1.2 Real-time mode
When checking the box Real-time mode the priority of the Ethernet is raised to priority 50, but still below the real-time priorities in
CODESYS. This enables real-time communication to for example: Power converters.
User's manual 4189341335A EN Page 15 of 33
4.2 Extended user management
Under Tools > Users the additional users : Admin, Service and Operator user roles can be enabled with password.
