2 Introduction
The card ibaLink-SM-64-io is an interface board in double European size, with modified
design for SIMATIC S5 (8 bit and 16 bit) and SIMICRO MMC 216.
It is used for transmission of measured data from a SIMATIC S5 or SIMICRO MMC 216-
system to an ibaPDA or ibaLogic system or for realization of a so called frame connec-
tion.
The card provides a fiber optical (FO) transmitter and receiver on the front panel.
Up to 64 analog (Integer / Float) and 64 digital signals can be transmitted over these
connections.
The ibaLink-SM-64-io-card uses a dedicated memory range on the backplane bus of the
S5 or MMC system. The data to be measured are written into this memory range by the
system where the card is plugged in and are transmitted over an iba standard fiber optical
interface with 3.3 Mbit/s to the iba system.
The fiber optical receiver is used for data being sent from an ibaLogic system to the S5
or MMC system and for input of measured data from other iba systems or devices
(ibaPADU, ibaLink-MBII, ibaLink-SM-128V-i-2o etc.) to the S5 or MMC system.
By means of a crossed over point-to-point connection between two ibaLink-SM-64-io
cards or an ibaLink-SM-64-io card and another iba component with FO transmitter and
receiver in another PLC system, data can be exchanged even without an iba software
application.

5 Installation / Deinstallation
Each ibaLink-SM-64-io board occupies a single slot in the S5 and/or MMC rack.
The EGB standards for handling electrostatic sensitive devices must be followed.
Use a ground line or discharge any electrostatic charge from yourself before touching
the card.
Av
oid direct contact with the connectors.
5.1 Installing the Card
1. Unpack the card carefully. Use a ground line or discharge any electrostatic charge
from yourself before touching the card.
2. Put the card with the welded side down on an even, clean and dry surface and make
the required settings of the DIL switches.
3. Switch off the S5 and/or MMC rack.
4. Take hold of the card by the two grips between thumb and index finger each.
5. Slide the card into the appropriate slot of the S5 and/or MMC system carefully.
6. Before sliding in the card to the end make sure that the two screws on the rear side
of the front panel can slide into the dedicated holes in the rack.
7. Push the card firmly until the end by pressing your thumbs on the front panel.
8. Fix the card to the rack with the two screws on the upper and lower end of the front
panel.
5.2 Removing the Card
In order to remove the card from the S5 and/or MMC rack please follow these steps:
1. Switch off the power supply of the S5 and/or MMC rack.
2. Release the screws in the front panel.
3. Press the two grips apart from each other. This will release the card from the back-
plane connectors.
4. Pull the card out of the slot.

6.1.1 Reset Button
Depressing this switch resets the board. When the button is depressed the board can
not be accessed by the system. Please note, that in certain instances, this may cause
disturbances within a host system, when the ibaLink-SM-64-io card refuses bus access
requests during reset.
6.1.2 Coding Switch
The coding switch determines how much data is to be extracted from the local DPR (Dual
Port RAM) and how much is to be accepted from the subordinate (cascaded) boards.
Linking receive data is only possible with new telegrams.
The cascading setup only recognizes groups of 8 measurement values for both real and
integer values. Due to the differing data lengths (4 bytes and 2 bytes), double data words
are transmitted for real values and single data words are transmitted for integers. The
allocation of the cascade data occurs in the function blocks with offset start and offset
end. (see also 6.3)

The switch setting 9 of the rotary switch at the front panel activates the additional receiver mode of the
ibaLink-SM-64-io. In this transmission mode it is possible to receive and send 64 analog plus 64 binary
signals in both directions. No cascading is possible in this mode of operation
If the rotary switch is turned during operation, incorrect telegrams are generated.

6.3 Cascading Boards (Loop Mode):
The ibaLink-SM-64-io can be cascaded in
steps of 8 channels each (8 integer or real and
8 binary values).
The cascade setup is implemented via the
front panel rotary switch.
An example is illustrated on the right.
Right Hand Board Output (Offset = 1):
1 x 8 Local Value
7 x 8 Values linked in via
Cascading Input
Middle Board Output (Offset = 3)
3 x 8 Local Values
5 x 8 Values linked in via
Cascading Input
Left Hand Board Output (Offset = 4):
4 x 8 Local Values
4 x 8 Values from unused Cascade
Input
It is possible to change the fiber optic connec-
tion during operation.
6.4 Compatibility
32-Bit-Mode:
The 32-bit mode of the new S5/MMC interface board (ibaLink-SM-64-io) now transmits
4 telegrams in the sequence EE, EB, E8 and E5.

6.5 Memory Organization
The board supports three memory access modes:
S5 Bus Linear mode
S5 Bus Cache mode
MMC Linear - Bus mode.
The board contains 2KB of dual-port RAM interfaced to 16-bit data bus. The bus can be
set to operate in 8-bit mode when the cache or linear access mode is used.
The board provides both a fiber optic transmitter and receiver on the front panel. In ad-
dition, the data can also be simultaneously transmitted to a notebook PC via a galvani-
cally isolated RS485 interface (RJ11).
Data memory is reset to a default value of 00 by an initialization function as soon as the
board is connected to the power supply. Transmission to both outputs is automatic. The
transmit mode is indicated by a flashing diode on the front panel.
Attention! The first byte of the dualport ram contains the status of the card when read via
the bus backplane.
S5 Mode
The board utilizes the addresses A0 through A15 in this mode. Differentiation between
the 8-bit and 16-bit data bus is made via a switch (SW1/3) on the board. The signal PESP
is not used.
The reset switch on the front panel will cause S5 to revert to the STOP state due to a
time out!
Consistency Checks
A consistency check has been implemented for the writing of data words. Integer mode
always requires 2 bytes (1 word) to be written. Real mode always requires 4 bytes
(2 words) to be written. This occurs in the S5 in a descending sequence and an ascend-
ing sequence in the MMC. The time period between accessing is not limited.
No consistency checking is carried out in the digital range.
