1 Introduction
Performance in a nutshell
Introduction
The modular design and standard on-board interfaces of PC-based controller
Ventura support flexible control solutions providing for future developments
in automation. Its passive chiller, fanless operation and the CF cards
used as mass storage media ensure advanced flexibility and speed and safety.
The mechanical and electrical design of the basic Ventura IPC model provides
reliable control and actuation of machines under tough everyday conditions
of the industry and warrants that all data is safe even in the event of
power failures. It is shock-proof and vibration-proof, features low-voltage
protection and EMC compliance plus compatibility with temperatures up to
50 °Celsius. Standard ports to CANopen, DVI, Ethernet, COM and USB let
Ventura IPC satisfy all communication needs. Users are supported by
CoDeSys, the stable and real-time control and programming system, in conjunction
with the real-time operating system, Microsoft® Windows® CE and
XP embedded. Two compact flash drives allow application and machine
data to be separated from the operating system. The Ventura IPC platform
installs or mounts either in a switching cabinet or immediately behind the
new Ventura IPC Touch.

2.5.1 Project Planning and Installation
2.5.2 Maintenance and Servicing
• 24 VDC power supply: generate as electrically safely separated low
voltage. Suitable devices are, for example, split transformers constructed
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 switch-off installations must comply with EN 60204/IEC 204
(VDE 0113). They must be effective 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.
• Control cables are to be laid in such a way as to exclude interference
(inductive or capacitive) which could influence controller operation or its
functionality.
• Precautions regulation VBG 4.0 must be observed when measuring or
checking a controller in a power-up condition. This applies to section 8
(Admissible deviations when working on parts) in particular.
• Repairs must be carried out by specially trained Kuhnke staff only (usually
in the main factory in Malente). Warranty expires in every other
case.
• 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 might otherwise damage the modules or (possibly not immediately
recognisably!) inhibit their functionality.
• Always dispose of any batteries and accumulators as hazardous waste.

2.6 Electromagnetic Compatibility
2.6.1 Definition
2.6.2 Interference Emission
2.6.3 General Notes on Installation
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. These kinds of noise are specified in
the applicable 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.
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.
Interfering emission of electromagnetic fields, HF
compliant to EN 55011, limiting value class A, Group 1
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 in-stalling filters in the
supply lines may produce a shielding compliant to the above standard.
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 (corresponds to VDE 0113).
For safe installation of our control system please observe the information
contained in the next chapters (� 2.6.4 ff).

2.6.6.1 Temperature
2.6.6.2 Contamination
2.6.6.3 Impact and Vibration
2.6.6.4 Electromagnetic Interference
Connect the control system to the protective earth conductor to eliminate electromagnetic
interference. Practice best cable routing.
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
2.6.7 Particular Sources of Interference
2.6.7.1 Inductive Actuators
Ensure that temperatures, contaminations, impact, vibration or electromagnetic
interference are no impediment to the installation.
Consider heat sources such as general heating of rooms, sunlight, heat accumulation
in assembly rooms or control cabinets.
Use suitable casings to avoid possible negative influences due to humidity,
corrosive gas, liquid or conducting dust.
Consider possible influences caused by motors, compressors, transfer lines,
presses, ramming machines and vehicles.
Consider electromagnetic interference from various local sources: motors,
switching devices, switching thyristors, radio-controlled devices, welding equipment,
arcing, switched-mode power supplies, converters / inverters.
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. Throttling elements could be diodes, Z diodes,
varistors or RC elements. To find the best adapted elements, we recommend
that you contact the manufacturer or supplier of the corresponding actuators
for the relevant information.

3.2 Ventura IPC + System Description
3.3 Application
A scalable price and performance also means to only use the Ventura IPC
building blocks you really need for a given application.
Ventura IPC + is a variant with an integrated slot PLC. Actually, it consists of
two separate components built into the same housing and communicating
via a dual-port RAM. Although the slot PLC resides in the same housing, it
still has its own power supply and, to give extra safety to the system, the deterministic
control process is entirely independent from the "Ventura IPC
host PC".
For further information on the slot PLC inside Ventura IPC +, please read
instruction manual E 697 GB "Ventura SlotPLC, PLC, PROFIBUS-DP and
CANopen Master"
Ventura IPC installs on a top-hat rail to provide a scalable, PC-based control
platform for switching cabinets or terminal boxes.
With this range of products you get a powerful and flexible industry PC system
for a wide range of practical applications, specifically in the fields of mechanical
engineering and switching cabinet construction:
• open and closed loop control using standardised software tools for all
areas of mechanical engineering
• operation and visualisation with the display terminal taken down for use
in automatic machines and info terminals
• a single unit for the visualisation and real-time control of generalpurpose
machine systems

3.7.4 Graphics Adapter "DVI / VGA"
The DVI-I adapter transfers analogue and digital monitor data (DVI-I integrated,
analogue and digital) and can therefore be used for both monitors
with a digital DVI port and monitors with an analogue VGA input.
If a Ventura IPC touch-series monitor is attached, the cable can be up to 25
m long (800x600 resolution). To bridge larger gaps, a DVI signal repeater
can be installed somewhere along the line.
Since the DVI port outputs VGA signals, VGA monitors can be attached using
a DVI-to-VGA adapter.

Shell Shield shielding
To attach a keyboard or a mouse or both to the interface, a PS2 splitter (Y
cable) is required.
The USB adapter is the port for external peripherals such as CD-ROM
drives, printers, modems or mouse and keyboard. The power supply unit for
the USB peripherals supplies up to 500 mA output current and is fused by
means of a maintenance-free "USB current-limiting circuit breaker". A short
circuit or overload thus switches off the power supply and the "USB" status
indicator lights up red.

Shell Shield shielding
The USB interfaces are made for attaching USB peripherals to. Due to the
wide range of commercially available USB units and operating systems,
KUHNKE cannot warrant that they will function properly.
The standard demands 5m as the warranted length of line. Putting in a USB
repeater you can extend lines to a maximum of 20m.
Hot Plug-ready peripherals can be attached to the USB port while the PC is
running.
To comply with the noise immunity demanded by standard IEC 61131, the
use of suitable USB cables is recommended. The accessory cables supplied
by KUHNKE Automation GmbH & Co. ( 10.7.2 Accessories) are tested for
compliance.
Wiring of all installations should bear IT-specific needs in mind.

The card stores the monitor program and the user program. Push the CF
card into the slot until it is flush with the housing. You need a narrow or pointed
object (screwdriver, pen) to actuate the ejector mechanism. You cannot
remove the CF card while Ventura IPC is in the switching cabinet.
Model variants Ventura IPC 300 and Ventura IPC 300 + feature a second
compact flash slot at the front of the unit. The second CF card can be used
for storing extra data, e.g. recipes.
The ejector will mechanically push out the card until you can pull it out with
your fingers. When you slot in the card, the ejector mechanism audibly
snaps in.
CompactFlash cards are susceptible to electrostatic discharge (ESD). Improper
handling may lead to temporary or complete failure.
Please take account of the instructions on how to handle memory cards.
The compact flash card (CF card) is a non-volatile memory. The data stored
on it will be retained even in the event of a power failure.
We recommend to only use CF cards designed for industrial applications
because these cards have an extended temperature range and can be rewritten
more often.
Compact flash cards (CF cards) of various volume capacities are sold as separate
accessory options.

Windows XP automatically detects normal plug & play USB memory sticks
and card readers, knows that they are removable disks and adds new drives
to the Explorer. The operating system displays a Desktop message to that
effect.
To retain the formatting of removable disks attached to the USB port, it is
recommended to always use "safe hardware remove" to unplug such devices
from the port.

6.3.2 Create New SID
When the Ventura IPC devices are produced a clone of the tested memory
image is copied to all the devices made afterwards. This method ensures
that the software of all devices is perfectly identical.
Whereas this is a fast and efficient approach, it also entails that all devices
have the same SID (computer security identifier) and computer name which
some networks may have problems with.
To avoid these problems there is a tool called "NewSID" whose job it is to give
the system a unique new SID.
Browse the Ventura IPC memory for folder 'C/Program Files/Ventura Tool' to
locate the NewSID utility.
• To use the tool run "newsid.exe" located in folder 'C/Program Files/Ventura
Tool'.
• Readme file "NewSIDReadme.txt" contains further information on the
tool.
It may take a couple of minutes until a new SID has been assigned.

7.1.3 Ventura touch Calibration
7.1.4 Running Applications
When you run your Ventura IPC on a CE platform for the first time, touch
screen calibration will be performed automatically (one-off Autorun). Please
follow the on-screen instructions. Afterwards you can start using your Ventura
touch.
To recalibrate the touch screen at any later time, manually run HCECAL.exe.
On KUHNKE Ventura IPC systems, the program is located in Start menu folder
"Programs / Kuhnke".
For further information on how to calibrate Ventura touch refer to instruction
manual E 675 GB "Ventura touch".
Autorun
To automatically run an application on the Ventura IPC, the easiest way is to
add the relevant link to the 'Autorun' folder. To locate the Autorun subfolder,
browse the CE volume's root directory (Explorer: "\storage card\autorun") for
it.
A link ("LNK" files) contains the command line that runs the corresponding
application. To handle a link:
• run any ASCII editor (e.g. "notepad.exe") on the host computer to edit
the link file, then upload it to Ventura IPC;
• run Microsoft WordPad ("pword.exe") installed on the Ventura IPC to edit
the link file as appropriate.
Link format
gen. xy#"\"
e.g. 31#"\storage card\3s\plcwince.exe"
"xy" is the decimal number of characters after "#", including the quotation
marks. Quotation marks are required only if the path or file name contains
white space as in the example above.
Do not terminate the command line with CR/LF!
Do not use uppercase letters!
At the time of delivery, subfolder "storage card\kuhnke\sm" contains a couple
of .LNK files which can be copied, renamed or edited.
Start menu and Desktop links
An approach similar to using Autorun is to paste links to the Start menu or
onto the Desktop:
Links to be added to the Start menu will be stored in subdirectory "\storage
card\kuhnke\sm".
Links to be placed on the Desktop will be stored in subdirectory "\storage
card\kuhnke\dt".

7.1.8 Remote Control Option
The Ventura IPC CE image contains all components required for operating a
USB printer. All PostScript Level 1, 2 or 3 printers are supported.
To print from Ventura with a CE platform, choose LPT1 as the printer port -
the appropriate USB port will be allocated to this logical interface.
A USB memory stick can be plugged into any available USB port. This mass
storage medium is supported by the standard CE image. Whereas the CE
operating system shows the memory stick as a separate volume in the CE
Explorer, it will not output any other message, e.g. to the Desktop.
After plugging in a memory stick, allow the CE Explorer about 30s to detect
and show it as a "hard disk" and, after unplugging it, about 5s to remove it
again.
Ventura IPC CE system packages contain a utility program called 'Remote-
Display' which allows another network computer to seize control over the
Ventura IPC system. Prerequisites are to run 'cerhost.exe' on the network
computer and to open a TCP/IP line to the Ventura IPC system.
'Cerhost.exe' can run at the same time as the CoDeSys development system.
To enable remote control
• Set up a network connection between the Ventura IPC and the monitoring
PC.
• Run 'cerhost.exe' on the monitoring PC.
• Run the 'RemoteDisplay' utility by choosing 'Programs', 'Kuhnke', 'RemoteDisplay'
from the Ventura IPC CE system's 'Start' menu.
• Click on 'Connect' and enter the name of the monitoring PC or its network
address as the 'Hostname'.

7.2 Connecting Using "ActiveSync"
This section explains the steps it takes to establish an ActiveSync connection
between Ventura IPC and the development PC or host computer.
Whereas the main purpose of an ActiveSync connection is to let the interconnecting
computers exchange data, it is recommended for use in conjunction
with implementing and, more importantly, with the testing (debugging) of
applications under MS embVC++4 or MS Visual Studio .NET 2003.
There is no necessity to use ActiveSync connections, since applications can
be directly copied to the CF cards by means of CF adapters.
Prerequisites
• Microsoft ActiveSync (licence-free download from Microsoft site)
• Null modem cable
• Optional TCP/IP connection
To set up ActiveSync
To establish ActiveSync connections, the development PC and Ventura IPC
should either belong to the same network or directly connect their Ethernet
interfaces using a crossover cable.
The first connection requires you to also put a null modem cable between
the V24 interfaces of the two devices.
Setting up the Ventura IPC
• Ventura IPC:
Display the 'Control Panel' and select 'Set up new network and remote
connection', 'Direct connection', 'Serial cable on COM1'.
• Ventura IPC:
Display the 'Control Panel', choose 'PC connection' to select the newly
established connection, and click on 'OK' to accept.

• Development PC or host PC:
In Windows Explorer, release the file / folder.
Click to select the folder, then right-click with the mouse. Pick Release
from the menu and select a name and security options as appropriate.
A hand holding the folder icon in the Explorer shows that the folder has been
successfully released.
• Ventura IPC:
Choose 'Programs' and 'DOS Prompt' and enable the access to the released
file.
• At the DOS Prompt, enter:

9 Maintenance
9.1 Replacing the Battery
Ventura has a 3 V lithium battery for buffering the power supply to the realtime
clock. The battery is located under the plastic cover on the top side of
the Ventura IPC.
The battery lasts for about 4 to 6 years. After that time, the battery should be
replaced.
Before replacing the battery, check that the system is completely dead. Immediately
before replacing the battery, be sure to attach Ventura IPC to the
power supply for at least 1 hour. The internal buffer circuit will then give you
an hour's time to replace the battery without any loss of data.
Replace the lithium battery (type CR2032) with a battery of the same type.
Procedure
• Switch off the Ventura IPC and disconnect it from the mains.
• Bleed any electrostatic charges via the housing or the earth conductor.
battery compartment
note the pull strip
• Remove the black plastic cover from the battery compartment and carefully
pull at the pull strip to remove the battery.
• Put in a new battery, taking care to placing it on the pull strip.
The integral buffer circuit will retain all data for one hour after switching off
and give you that much time to replace the battery.
Do not through the old lithium battery into the domestic waste.
Dispose of the battery compliant to local regulations concerning the disposal
of hazardous waste (e.g. by taking it to the special collecting points).

9.2 Handling of Memory Cards
CompactFlash cards are susceptible to electrostatic discharge (ESD). Improper
handling may lead to temporary or complete failure. Please take account
of the following instructions on how to properly handle memory cards.
• Before installing or replacing a memory card be sure to completely turn
off the unit. Ventura treats the memory cards like a hard disk and not as
a removable disk.
• Prior to handling the memory cards, touch any ground-connected components
to bleed any electrostatic charge to earth, or put on an antistatic
strip straight away.
• Outside the unit, the memory cards should be placed on antistatic surfaces
only.
• Antistatic packaging to be used for transporting memory cards.
