It should be noted that many of the USB devices on the market do not comply with
USB specifications; this can lead to device malfunctions. This can lead to malfunc-

USB port or function correctly. Therefore, it is recommended that every USB stick
should be tested before actual use.

4 Setting of Parameters for the IPC 221 with SET key (only
under LASAL operating system)
To enter the mode to change settings, press and hold the SET button while the IPC is boot-
ing.
The upper section of the display shows which setting can be changed; the lower section of
the display shows the set value.
The blinking part of the display can be set with a short press of the SET button:
If the upper section is blinking, the various settings can be viewed by quickly pressing the
set button multiple times. To change between the setting and the value, the Set button must
be pressed for about 1.5 s.
Once the desired changes are made, press the SET button for about 5 seconds to end the
process. If the changes are to be discarded, press the RESET button to restart the IPC
The settings for the IP address, subnet mask and gateway are hexadecimal, whereas in the
left and right digits, 0 - F must be entered separately. The switch occurs when the SET
button is pressed for about 1.5 s.

5 Wiring
5.1 Wiring Example KTY
17.05.2018 Page 23
IPC 221 INDUSTRIAL PC
5.2 Note
The signals recorded by the analog modules are very small, as compared to the digital
signals. To ensure error-free operation, a careful wiring method must be followed:
• The lines connected to the source of the analog signals must be as short as possible
and parallel wiring to digital signal lines must be avoided.
The ground bus should be connected to the control cabinet when possible!
5.3 Shielding
The wiring for the COM1, COM2, CAN1, CAN2, ETH1, ETH2, S-DVI and DVI must be
shielded. In addition, twisted-pair wires must be used for the CAN bus. The prefabricated S-
DVI cable is available in various lengths. For wiring of ETH1 and ETH2 cables according
CAT5e are recommended.
The low-ohm shielding is either connected at the entry to the control cabinet or directly
before the IPC of a large surface (cable grommets, grounding clamps)!
Noise signals can therefore be prevented from reaching the electronics and affecting the
function.
Page 24 17.05.2018
INDUSTRIAL PC IPC 221
Typically, USB devices (keyboard, mouse) are not equipped with shielded cables. These
devices are disrupted by ESD and in some instances, no longer function.
Before any device is connected to, or disconnected from the IPC, the potential should be
equalized (by touching the control cabinet or ground terminal). Electrostatic loads (through
clothing and shoes) can thereby be dissipated.

If the processor module like the IPC 221 is an end module, it can be terminated by placing
a 120 Ω resistor between CAN A (LOW) and CAN B (HIGH).

7 Storage Media
It is recommended that only storage media provided by SIGMATEK
(CompactFlash cards, microSD cards etc.) be used.
The number of read and write actions have a significant influence on the
lifespan of the storage media.
8 Buffer Battery
The exchangeable buffer battery ensures that the clock time (RTC) and SRAM data of the
IPC 221 is preserved in the absence of a supply voltage. A lithium battery is installed at the
manufacturer.
After delivery of the IPC 221 and storage of one year, the lifespan of the battery reaches 8
years.
With continuously switched-on supply voltage data are buffered with the supply voltage.
This operating mode increases the life span of the battery to a minimum of 8 years. The
capacity of the battery thereby is sufficient to buffer data for at least 4 weeks per year on
switching off the supply during these 8 years.

13.1 File Size on the CF card
If files are stored, modified or written on the CompactFlash card from the user program,
these files must always be stored with a fixed maximum size. Since changes in size and the
simultaneous shutdown of the voltage supply can corrupt the file system, a later change in
the file size is not allowed.

14 Mounting
To mount the S-DIAS module, a DIN rail is required. The DIN rail must establish a conduc-
tive connection with the back wall of the control cabinet. The individual
S-DIAS modules are mounted on the DIN rail as a block and secured with
latches. The modules must be mounted vertically with sufficient clearance between the
ventilation slots of the S-DIAS module blocks and nearby components and/or the control
cabinet wall. This is required to provide optimal cooling and air circulation so that functional-
ity is ensured at the maximum operating temperature.
It has to be cared, that the temperature escaping at the ventilation slots can be up
to 60 °C.
17.05.2018 Page 41
IPC 221 INDUSTRIAL PC
The VARAN real-time Ethernet bus system exhibits a very robust quality in harsh industrial
environments. Through the use of IEEE 802.3 standard Ethernet physics, the potentials
between an Ethernet line and sending/receiving components are separated. In the event of
an error, the VARAN Manager resends messages to a bus participant immediately. The
shielding described below is mainly recommended.
For applications in which the bus is operated outside the control cabinet, the correct shield-
ing is required. This is especially important, if due to physical requirements, the bus cables
must be placed next to sources of strong electromagnetic noise. It is recommended to avoid
placing VARAN bus lines parallel to power cables whenever possible.
An S-FTP bus is a symmetric, multi-wire cable with unshielded pairs. For the entire shield-
ing, a combination of foil and braiding is used. A non-laminated variant is recommended.
The VARAN cable must be secured at a maximum distance of 20 cm from the con-
nector to
protect against vibration!
Page 42 17.05.2018
INDUSTRIAL PC IPC 221
If the Ethernet lines are connected from a VARAN component to a VARAN node located
outside the control cabinet, the shielding should be placed at the entry point to the control
cabinet housing. All noise can then be deflected from the electronic components before
reaching the module.
17.05.2018 Page 43
IPC 221 INDUSTRIAL PC
If a VARAN bus line must be connected outside of the control cabinet only, no additional
shield support is required. A requirement therefore, is that only IP67 modules and connect-
ors can be used outside the control cabinet. These components are very robust and noise
resistant. The shielding for all sockets in IP67 modules is electrically connected internally or
over the housing, whereby voltage spikes are not deflected through the electronics.
Page 44 17.05.2018
INDUSTRIAL PC IPC 221
Sources of strong electromagnetic noise located within the control cabinet (drives, Trans-
formers, etc.) can induce interference in a VARAN bus line. Spike voltages are dissipated
over the metallic housing of a RJ45 connector. Noise is conducted through the control cabi-
net housing without further action from the electronic components. To eliminate sources of
noise during data transfer, it is recommended that the shielding for all electronic compo-
nents be connected within the control cabinet.
17.05.2018 Page 45
IPC 221 INDUSTRIAL PC
With the connection of power components that generate strong electromagnetic interfer-
ence, it is also critical to ensure correct shielding. The shielding should be placed before a
power element (or group of power elements).
Page 46 17.05.2018
INDUSTRIAL PC IPC 221
If two control cabinets must be connected over a VARAN bus, it is recommended that the
shielding be located at the entry points of both cabinets. Noise can be thereby prevented
from reaching the electronics within the control cabinet.
