Regulatory compliance
Products sold or transferred between companies or operated on company premises (factory
floor, laboratory) do not need CE, FCC or equivalent certification. Boards or subsystems which
cannot provide a useful function on their own do not need certification.
Certification can only be granted to complete and operational systems. There are authorized
testing agencies, regulatory organizations and laboratories who will issue certificates of
compliance after system testing.
Emerson Automation Solutions designs and tests all their products for EMI/EMC conformance.
Where Emerson Automation Solutions supplies a complete/functional system for use by end
users a certificate will be cited in the manuals/documents which are provided with the products.
Products manufactured by Emerson Automation Solutions should normally be suitable for use
in properly designed and produced customer equipment (system boxes or operational systems)
without any major redesign or additional filtering. However, the systems might not conform to
specific regulations once assembled and used. The system integrator or installer must test for
compliance as required in his country or by the intended application and certify this to the end
user.
ESD/EMI issues
ESD (Electro‐Static Discharge) and EMI (Electro‐Magnetic Interference) issues may show up in
complete and operational systems. There are many ways to avoid problems with these issues.
Any operational system with cables for I/O signals, connectivity or peripheral devices provides
an entry point for ESD and EMI. If Emerson Automation Solutions does not manufacture the
complete system, including enclosure and cables, it is the responsibility of the system integrator
and end user to protect their system against potential problems. Filtering, optical isolation, ESD
gaskets and other measures might be required at the physical point of entry (enclosure wall of
box or rack). For example it is state‐of‐the‐art that protection cannot be done at the internal
connector of an RTM if a cable is attached and routed outside the enclosure. It has to be done
at the physical entry point as specified above.
Products manufactured by Emerson Automation Solutions should normally be suitable for use
in properly designed and produced customer equipment (system boxes or operational systems)
without any major redesign. However, the systems might be subject to problems and issues once
assembled, cabled and used. The end user, system integrator or installer must test for possible
problems and in some cases show compliance to local regulations as required in his country or
by the intended application.

Waste Disposal
The mark or symbol on any electrical or electronic product shows that this product may not be
disposed off in a trash bin. Such goods have to be returned to the original vendor or to a properly
authorized collection point.
The black bar underneath the waste bin symbol shows that the product was placed on the
market after 13 August 2005. Alternatively the date of ‘placed on the market’ is shown in place
of the bar symbol.
CE conformance declaration
CE certification is required in EU countries for equipment which is used or operated by the end
user. Products sold or transferred between companies or operated on company premises
(factory floor, laboratory) do not need CE certification.
CE certification can only be granted to complete and operational systems. Boards or subsystems
which cannot provide a useful function on their own do not need CE certification.
Emerson Automation Solutions designs and tests all their products for EMI/EMC conformance.
Products manufactured by Emerson Automation Solutions should normally be suitable for use
in properly designed and produced customer equipment (system boxes or operational systems)
without any major redesign or additional filtering. The system integrator or installer must, in any
case, test for CE compliance and certify this to the end user.
Where Emerson Automation Solutions supplies a complete/functional system for use by end
users in EU countries a CE certificate will be cited in the manuals/documents which are provided
with the products. The CE (and year of certification) symbol is shown on the equipment, typically
on the type or S/N label or close to the power cable entry.
Emerson Automation Solutions have tested their boards using their own card cages (chassis).
Test results of these tests are available upon request.

•Notes, warning symbols and cautions call attention to essential information.
Product Properties
Altitude
Altitude, air pressure and ambient temperature influence the thermal operation of the
components described in this manual. They have been developed and tested at about 500 m
(1650 ft.) above sea level at a typical ambient temperature of 20 °C (68 °F). Because of only
marginal variations within a limited range of altitudes these products operate as specified within
altitudes from sea level to 2000 m (~6560 ft). This is with reference to temperature ranges of
air‐cooled versions. ICC Intelligent Platforms can assist the user of these components in planning
operation outside this altitude range upon request.

Hardware Reference Manual Overview
GFK-3022E September 2021
Overview 1
Section1: Overview
A Computer-On-Module (COM) is a module containing all components necessary for a bootable
host computer, packaged as a super component. A COM requires a carrier board to connect I/O
and power up. COMs are used to build modular solutions and offer Original Equipment
Manufacturer (OEMs) fast time-to-market with reduced development cost. Like integrated
circuits, they provide OEMs with significant freedom in meeting form-fit-function requirements.
For these reasons, the COM methodology has gained much popularity with OEMs in the
embedded industry.
The RXi2-XP IPC industrial computing platform delivers compact, rugged, mid to high
performance computing and high performance graphics capabilities to run HMI, historian, and
analytics applications for real-time control of operations. It offers the expandability of 0, 1, 2, or
4 (mini and low profile) PCI Express (PCIe) slots and CFast storage.
The RXi2-XP IPC (NextGenIPC) is composed of the following components:
•bCOM6L18 COM Express module based on Intel® Skylake 6th Generation Core™i3/5/7
and Xeon® V5 series
•CEC09 COM Express carrier board
•PERC12 (1-slot), PERC10 (2-slot) and PERC11 (4-slot) PCIe riser board
•PIP24VDC power supply module
•SRC SATA riser board for additional 2.5 inch mass storage devices support
•Industrial grade enclosure with heat sink for the module and carrier components
This chapter describes features, capabilities, and compatibilities of the RXi2-XP IPC and its
components

1.1 Capability and Compatibility
The bCOM6L18 COM Express module is a fully IBM-AT compatible single board computer
module containing many functions in a very small form-factor. It is based on the PICMG COM
Express Module Base Specification V2.1 Type 6. (Refer to the documentation located at
www.picmg.org.) The bCOM6L18 uses the Intel x86 6th Generation Core Processor and Intel
Xeon Processors to provide most of the interface for Type 6.

Hardware Reference Manual Overview
GFK-3022E September 2021
Overview 4
The CEC09 COM Express carrier board is also compliant with the PICMG COM Express Module
Base Specification V2.1
Type 6.
The PERC10 and PERC11 PCI Express (PCIe) riser boards provide signals from the edge connector
interface to a PCIe
packet switch device (limited to PCIe Gen2) through PCIe expansion slots. The PERC12 riser
board provides signals from the
Edge and is a passive device that supports a PCIe Gen3 link.
The PIP24VDC power supply module provides a voltage input of nominal 24 V (± 25%).
