1. General
1.1. Safety instructions
Observe the information of the description. Non-observance of
the notes, operation which is not in accordance with use as
prescribed below, wrong installation or handling can result in
serious harm concerning the safety of persons and plants.
The instructions are for authorised persons according to the
EMC and low voltage guidelines. The controllers must be
installed and commissioned by a skilled electrician (programmer
or service technician).
This description is part of the unit. It contains texts and drawings
concerning the correct handling of the controller and must be
read before installation or use.
If the unit is not supplied by the mobile on-board system (24V
battery operation) it must be ensured that the external voltage is
generated and supplied according to the criteria for safety extra-
low voltage (SELV) as this is supplied without further measures
to the connected controller, the sensors, and the actuators.
The wiring of all signals in connection with the SELV circuit of
the unit must also comply with the SELV criteria (safe extra-low
voltage, safe electrical separation from other electric circuits).
If the supplied SELV voltage as an external connection to
ground (SELV becomes PELV) the responsibility lies with the
user and the respective national regulations for installation must
be complied with. All statements in these operation instructions
refer to the unit the SELV voltage of which is not grounded.
The terminals may only be supplied with the signals indicated in
the technical data or on the unit label and only the approved
accessories of ifm electronic gmbh may be connected.
The unit can be operated within a wide temperature range
according to the technical specification indicated below. Due to
the additional self-heating the housing walls can have high
perceptible temperatures when touched in hot environments.

In the case of malfunctions or uncertainties please contact the
manufacturer. Tampering with the units can lead to
considerable risks for the safety of persons and plant. It is not
permitted and leads to the exclusion of any liability and warranty
claims.
1.2. Function and features
The controller modules ecomat 100 series R 360 (in the
following text ecomat R 360) are for the user under harsh
operating conditions (e.g. extended temperature range, strong
vibration, intensive EMC interference). They are thus suited for
direct mounting into machines in mobile and rugged
applications. Due to their specification the inputs and outputs
are especially rated for this use. Integrated hardware and
software functions (operating system) offer high protection of
the machine.
The controller ecomat R 360 is approved for safety-
relevant tasks in the field of safety of persons if the
corresponding system test routines are integrated in the
operating system and the application software. The final
classification and the release of the system (hardware and
software) can only be done by the proper supervisory
organisations. The programmer has to obtain information
about the special characteristics of the hardware and
software in the additional documentation which can be
obtained on request.

The application software can easily be created by the user with
the ecolog 100plus software.
All software functions and programming processes
described in this documentation refer to the ecolog 100plus
programming software the knowledge of which is required
for this description.
The user also has to observe the software versions (especially
the operating system of the R 360 and the function libraries) that
is used. Software levels are marked by suffixed letters in
alphabetic order in the file names (e.g. CR0015_B.DL or TDM-
A.LIB). When revising existing application projects the user
should find out about incompatibilities between the old and the
new versions.

The user is responsible for the safe functioning of the
application programs which he creates himself. If
necessary, he must additionally obtain an approval
according to the corresponding national regulations by the
relevant testing and supervisory organisations.
1.3. Controller configuration
The ecomat R 360 is a customer or application-specific concept
for series use which means that the control modules have the
optimum configuration to the application. If necessary, special
functions and special hardware solutions can be accomplished.
In general: All descriptions and explanations in this manual
are generally applicable to the controller system ecomat R
360. The appropriate controller configuration for the unit in
use is to be loaded in the programming system (article
number of the unit, CRnnnn = file name controller
configuration CRnnnn_X).
Before using the controller modules you need to check the
availability of certain functions, hardware options, inputs and
outputs are available in the hardware.
