Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: The controller fails to connect to the EtherCAT bus after installation--what's the issue?
A: First check the terminal resistor module (XL-ETR) -- it must be plugged into the last slave device on the bus, not the main controller. Also, confirm the bus cable uses shielded twisted pair (STP) and the grounding is solid. If it still doesn't work, check the bus sync cycle settings -- 32-axis systems need a 2ms cycle, not 250μs (that's only for 4-axis setups).
Q2: Why does the controller keep showing a power supply error in North American factories?
A: Most North American industrial sites use 24VDC power supplies with 110VAC input, but some cheap local supplies have unstable voltage (fluctuating beyond ±10%). The XLQ7 requires strict 24VDC ±10% input -- swap it for a certified industrial power supply (UL-listed is better). Also, check the wiring for reversed polarity.
Q3: The I/O expansion modules don't respond, even though they're connected correctly.
A: Two possible fixes: First, check the expansion module order -- XLQ7 only supports left + right expansion, not daisy-chaining beyond 16 modules. Second, confirm the module model matches the region: European equipment often uses PNP input sensors, so you need the XLE-16PX16YR module, not the NPN default XLE-8X8YT.
Q4: The controller works fine in the lab, but crashes frequently in a tropical Southeast Asian factory--why?
A: Tropical factories have high humidity (over 95% RH) and temperature spikes (over 60℃) -- the XLQ7's operating temp is 0-60℃. Solutions: Install a waterproof dust cover for the controller, add a dedicated cooling fan near the cabinet, and avoid mounting it close to heat-generating devices like servo drives.
Q5: How to handle the certification issues when customs inspects the controller in the EU?
A: Keep two documents handy: the CE certificate (EN 61131-2 standard) and the RoHS compliance report. Save digital versions on a USB drive, because EU customs often checks the certificate number against the official database. Also, make sure the CE logo is clearly printed on the controller label (not a sticker).
