Box2 base / BoX2 pro (SC) / BoX2 extreme (SC), unknown IP \ reset \ reformat

​25.10.2019
IX 2.40SP4

If you have a BoX2, and do not know the IP of it, how can you then regain contoll of it?

- Port B in all X2 / BoX2 devices are default set to DHCP, so if lucky, you will find it by connecting the port B to a network with a DHCP service (e.g. your office)

- Secondary you need to create a new config file with the configuration software WARP, and then load this project (with known IP settings), from an USB stick. 

- The procedure on using WARP is described inn part 3.1.1 in the BoX2 manual attached, Beijer BoX2 Image Manual, User’s Guide, MAEN205 C

BoX2 Erase / Delete Project with USB

The attached file is a .json that can be put on a USB stick and then plugged into a BoX2 to remove the project running on the device.

The following are the instructions on how to use it:

1. Put the attached json file in the root of an USB memory, it will be used to try delete the existing iX project on the BoX2 pro.
2. Plug the USB in while the BoX2 is running and wait until the LED turns red.
3. Remove the USB memory when the LED starts to flash purple and then reboot the BoX2.
4. When the BoX2 has booted the LED should flash purple which indicates that the unit is in standby and no iX project is running.
5. After this you should be able to transfer your iX project to the BoX2 from iX Developer.

X2 pro (SC) / X2 marine (SC) / X2 extreme (SC) / BoX2 base / BoX2 pro (SC) / BoX2 extreme (SC), Battery replacement

17.oct.2018

General
X2 series operator terminals use Lithium batterys to  retain RTC data(Real Time Clock), and Persistent variables (battery backed variables), in terminals with onboard codesys PLC (control \ motion versions) (stored in SRAM)

X2 Base: 
use a rechargable Lithium ion 200mA cell. (on print soldered)
Normaly not to be replaced. (need 48h to fully charge on startup)

X2 Extreme:
X2 extreme 7 & ( 12 V)  
BR2330A/GAN 3V 255mAh Non rechargable Button cell, Not user Replacable (soldered on print) 

All other extreme terminals use:
BR2477A/GAN 3V 1000mAh Non rechargable Button cell, Not user Replacable (soldered on print) 

​X2 Pro/Marine/control/ Motion:
BR2032 3V 200mAh Button Cell, non rechargable battery. User Replacable.
(remove backcover by unscrew the 4  torq screws ( T10) in each corner)

Lifetime:
The RTC current consumption is 3uA when power is off 
The SRAM current consumption is 1-2uA when power is off 

Lifetime depends on both temperature, and how much of the time the terminal is powered. 

A Standard X2 terminal with no SRAM (only RTC), charging 3uA when power is off should then last 200 000uAh : (3uA*24*365) = 7,6 years. (if never powered) (worst case is estimated to be = 5Years)

A Control terminal with SRAM the calculation would be: 
200 000uAh : (5uA*24*365) = 4,6 years. (if never powered) 

A standard terminal used 260 days\year 10h\day would last aprox 11 years.
200 000 : ((260days * 14hurs * 3uA) + (105days * 24hours * 3uA))

Warning:
When the Battery is due for replacement, a system warning dialogue will appear in the middle of the screen. This dialogue must be acknowledged to make it disapear. After a reboot the warning will occure again if the low battery condition remains.  


Some Details on lithium batterys
BR2032 brakes up to:
B - Positive electrode material (Carbon Monofluoride)
R - Round (shape)
20 - Diameter in mm
32 - Height in 1\10 mm = 3,2 mm

BR2032 vs CR2032:
Due to the differens in positive electrode material, BR cells self discharge slower than CR cells, (thus has longer "shelf time" (90% after 10 years)),  And has wider temp. range than CR  (-30 to +85 vs -20 to 70).
The voltage is tough the same (3V), and apart from the temp. spec. theese cells are compatible.

X2/BoX2 script Access to the USB ports

​28 mars 2018
IX 2.31 SP1

It is not (by now), possible to access the USB ports in X2 terminals, to Use them as e.g. serial devices.

SqlProxy - Connects iX Panels transparently to SQL Server

​There's sometimes a need to connect to SQL Server from an iX Panel.
In CE6 based panel, this has been possible using sqlclient.

Nothing similar is however supported in CE8 (most X2 panels).

During the years, we have helped customers creating solutions based on SQL Server connectivity.
There is a need to be able to move such an application to X2 aswell with minimal change of script code.

One solution is "SqlProxy" that is presented in the attached pdf file.

Download:
https://www.beijerelectronics.com/en/support/Help___online?code=4D4C0877-4291-43C8-BA7B-54A456B0B5FE
Install in e.g. C:\Users\Public\SqlProxy to avoid access right issues!

October 16, 2019: The file SqlProxy_191016C.zip contains CURRENT VERSION !
SqlProxy 1.1.0.1. Make sure to use corresponding SqlProxy.exe , tcpServer.dll and scmSqlProxy.Script.cs from the same package!
Supports unicode (e.g. Chinese characters and queries like select * from Customers where Name = N'公司黄页' ). Performance improved.

For best performance, limit the amount of data (number of rows and number of columns) to the minimum necessary with your SQL query. Example: "select top (1) createdTime, columnName3, columnName149 from tableName where columnName1 = 'something' order by createdTime desc"
to get just the few interesting columns from the very latest record where columnName1 = 'something'

Furthermore, for best performance, use StringBuilder when receiving reply from SqlProxy instead of += in the iX demo project. scmSqlProxy.Script_StringBuilder.zip in demo project contains this alternate scmProxy.Script.cs file if needed.
