QLM700 INSTALLATION MANUAL

DESCRIPTION
The QLM700 Profinet IO Gateway is an active connection module which can be used in
Standalone or ID-NET™ Master Multidata, or Master Synchronized layouts. It provides a fast
and efficient way to cable both an Profinet IO network and an ID-NET™ network using
standard cables.
It provides separate M12 connectors for Power Supply, Profinet Communication, ID-NET™
Network, External Trigger, Digital I/O and Aux RS232 Communication for configuration of the
reading device.
The QLM700 Gateway provides an easy way to connect many Datalogic reading devices to
any PLC with Profinet IO support. It allows Profinet IO real-time communication with bus
topologies, and due to its two Profinet ports, it eliminates the need for expensive external
switches.
Host communication is provided through the integrated Profinet IO circuitry which connects
internally to the reader's Main serial interface (RS232).
ID-NET™ network and power supply signals are provided to the next connected device (ID-
NET™ Slave), by means of a dedicated M12 connector. However there is not a second
ID-NET™ network connector for bus propagation and therefore the QLM700 cannot be used
as an ID-NET™ Slave.
The reading device is connected to the QLM700 through a standard 25-pin D-sub connector.
Three rotary switches allow easy manual Network Addressing selection.
The following accessories make system cabling easy:
CBL-1487 connector or CS-A2-02-G-xx cable, to build the Power Supply connection.
FMC600 connector, to build the I/O connections.
CAB-AUX03 cable, to connect the Gateway to a PC to configure the connected reading
device.
CBL-1480-xx cable, to build the ID-NET network connections.
If necessary, commercial cables are available for trigger connections to a PNP photocell (see
TRG Connector paragraph).
QLM700 has integrated on-board backup memory and therefore supports Backup and
Restore procedures for the connected device and relative ID-NET™ network (if used). See
the device's Backup and Restore procedure in the Help On Line.
For the 2KN-4K Family Scanners, Backup and Restore can also be performed using
programming barcodes, see the Setup Procedure Using Programming Barcodes document
on the reader's CD-ROM.
NOTE
For full compatibility with QLM700, the 2KN-4K Family Scanner must have
software package 007_3 or later.
