1.3.7 Safety
Our products normally become part of larger systems or installations. The information below is intended to
help you integrate the product into its environment without dangers to humans or material/equipment.
DANGER
Non-observance of the instruction manual
Measures for the prevention of dangerous faults or errors may be rendered ineffective or new
hazard sources created.
Thoroughly read the instruction manual
Take particular heed of the hazard warnings
Information
To achieve a high degree of conceptual safety in planning and installing an electronic controller,
it is essential to exactly follow the instructions given in the manual be
cause wrong handling could
lead to rendering measures against dangers ineffective or to creating additional dangers.
Project Planning
24 VDC power supply: generate as electrically safely separated low voltage. Suitable devices
include split-winding transformers built in compliance with European Standard EN 60742
(corresponds to VDE 0551).
Power breakdowns or power fades: the program structure is to ensure that a defined state at restart
excludes all dangerous states.
Emergency-off installations must comply with EN 60204/IEC 204 (VDE 0113). They must be
operative at any time.
Safety and precautions regulations for qualified applications have to be complied with.
Please pay particular attention to the notices of warning which, at relevant places, will make you
aware of possible sources of dangerous mistakes or faults.
Relevant standards and VDE regulations are to be complied with in every case.
Control elements are to be installed in such a way as to exclude unintended operation.
Lay control cables such that interference (inductive or capacitive) is excluded if this interference
could influence controller operation or its functionality.
Maintenance and Servicing
Precautions regulation BGV A3 (Elektrische Anlagen und Betriebsmittel) to be observed when
measuring or checking a controller after power-up. This applies to section 8 (Admissible deviations
when working on parts) in particular.
Spare parts: Only use parts approved of by Kuhnke. Only genuine Kuhnke modules must be used in
modular controllers.
Modular systems: always plug or unplug modules in a power-down state. You may otherwise
damage the modules or (possibly not immediately recognisably!) inhibit their functionality.
Always dispose of (rechargeable) batteries as hazardous waste.

1.3.8 Electromagnetic Compatibility
Definition
Electromagnetic compatibility is the ability of a device to function satisfactorily in its electromagnetic
environment without itself causing any electromagnetic interference that would be intolerable to other
devices in this environment.
Of all known phenomena of electromagnetic noise, only a certain range occurs at the location of a given
device. It is defined in the relevant product standards.
The design and immunity to interference of programmable logic controllers are internationally governed by
standard
IEC 61131-2 which, in Europe, has been the basis for European Standard
EN 61131-2.
Information
Refer to IEC 61131-4, User's Guideline, for general installation instructions to be complied with
to ensure that hardware interface factors and the ensuing noise voltages are limited to tolerable
levels.
Interference emission
Interfering emission of electromagnetic fields, HF
compliant to EN 55011, limiting value class A, Group 1
Information
If the controller is designed for use in residential areas, high-frequency emissions must comply
with limiting value class B as described in EN 55011.
Fitting the controller into earthed metal cabinets and installing filters in the supply lines may
produce a shielding compliant to the above standard.
General notes on installation
As component parts of machines, facilities and systems, electronic control systems must comply with valid
rules and regulations, depending on their field of application.
General requirements concerning the electrical equipment of machines and aiming at the safety of these
machines are contained in Part 1 of European Standard EN 60204 (same as VDE 0113).
Electrical immission safeguard
To eliminate electromagnetic interference, connect the control system to the protective earth conductor.
Practice best cable routing.
Cable routing and wiring
Keep power circuits separate from control circuits:
DC voltages 60 V ... 400 V
AC voltages 25 V ... 400 V
Joint laying of control circuits is allowed for:
shielded data signals
shielded analogue signals
unshielded digital I/O lines
unshielded DC voltages < 60 V
unshielded AC voltages < 25 V

Location of installation
Ensure that temperatures, contaminations, impact, vibration or electromagnetic interference are no
impediment to the installation.
Temperature
Consider heat sources such as general heating of rooms, sunlight, heat accumulation in assembly rooms or
control cabinets.
Contamination
Use suitable casings to avoid possible negative influences due to humidity, corrosive gas, liquid or
conducting dust.
Impact and vibration
Consider possible influences caused by motors, compressors, transfer lines, presses, ramming machines
and vehicles.
Electromagnetic interference
Consider electromagnetic interference from various local sources: motors, switching devices, switching
thyristors, radio-controlled devices, welding equipment, arcing, switched-mode power supplies, converters /
inverters.
Particular sources of interference
Inductive actuators
Switching off inductances (such as from relays, contactors, solenoids or switching magnets) produces surge
voltages. It is necessary to reduce these extra voltages to a minimum.
Reducing elements may be diodes, Z-diodes, varistors or RC elements. Their rating should conform to the
specifications provided by the manufacturer or supplier of the actuators.

2 System Description
2.1 Properties of Econo
The CODESYS controller links to various fieldbus systems to provide a compact control system. CODESYS
V3 supports easy programming and efficient engineering. The fully equipped embedded system is built
around a scalable single core or multicore i.MX6 processor. All its components are very sturdy and available
for a long time.
Properties
Fanless processor technology does not require any maintenance
Various software packages for variability
Network capability by LAN, EtherCAT®and CAN (CANopen®) ports
Industry-compliant interfaces
RTC
2.2 CODESYS V3
CODESYS is a software platform designed to handle many tasks of industrial automation technology. It is
based on the IEC 61131-3 programming system. The tool benefits users with integrated solutions tailored to
their practical work and aimed at providing hands-on support with whatever job needs to be done.
CODESYS supports all five languages specified in IEC 61131-3 (International Electrotechnical Commission):
IL (Instruction List)
ST (Structured Text), based on PASCAL for structured programming
LD (Ladder Diagram)
FBD (Function Block Diagram)
SFC (Sequential Function Chart)
Apart from the standard IEC languages, CODESYS also supports:
CFC (Continuous Function Chart) is a FD (function diagram) editor with a fully configurable graphical
layout: whereas FD editors are network-based and automatically arrange the function blocks, CFC
lets users place the blocks anywhere such that feedback effects can be created without any
temporary variables. This feature makes the language the perfect choice for creating an overview of
the application.
2.2.1 Fieldbus technology
The CODESYS programming system allows the direct configuration of the CANopen and EtherCAT, OPC
UA and Modbus fieldbuses. Protocol stacks can be separately installed as CODESYS libraries for some
systems.

2.2.2 CODESYS Control
CODESYS Control is a soft PLC runtime system installed in Econo and adapted to its hardware. It turns
Econo into an industrial controller in conformity with IEC 61131-3. This runtime system also features some
extra functions that let the controller communicate with other components in its automation environment.
2.2.3 Visualisation
An editor integrated in the CODESYS programming system allows users to create complex visualisation
screens and to animate them by means of the application variables. The appropriate visualisation elements
are provided by the software. Once created, the screens may help to test an application or to start it up in the
programming system's online mode, for example. Running the optional visualisation clients CODESYS
TargetVisu, CODESYS HMI and CODESYS WebVisu makes the screens a means of operating the
machine or system.
2.2.4 Software Releases
Various software options or combined software options are available for installation in the devices. Please
ask product management for the combination that best fits your needs.
