X-Gate: How to integrate the AK2 over CANbus

1. Equipment

This guide focuses at the current moment on the integration of the AK2 controller via CANbus to the X-Gate. For the integration of the X-Gate with a BMS, PLC, SCADA, etc., please refer to the User Guide. This guide also does not cover how to obtain the ED3/ED4 file.
What is needed

X-Gate + power supply 24V AC/DC

AK-PC 78x family (080Z0192) + power supply 24 AC/DC

Display MMIGRS2 (080G0294) + ACCCBI Cable Telephone (080G0076)

Cables for the wiring

2a. Connection between AK-PC 78x family and MMIGRS2

2b. Connection between MMIGRS2 and X-Gate

CANH-R connection should be done only on the first and last element of the network. AK-PC 78x is terminated internally and the last element of the network will be the X-Gate therefore do not terminate the display. Also do not connect a separate power supply for the display. Supply comes directly from the controller via cable.
Terminate the CANH-R on the X-Gate. Do not connect a separate power supply for the display.

3. Wiring without the MMIGRS2 (direct)

Terminate the CANH-R on the X-Gate. Do not connect a separate power supply for the display.
X-Gate 3 wires are used from the RJ11 cable

4. Settings in MMIGRS2

Skip chapter 4 if the MMIGRS2 is not being used.
Required App version: 3.29 or higher and BIOS: 1.17 or higher. Depending on the configuration of AK-PC 78x, the main screen will appear slightly different. To access the MMIGRS2 display settings, simultaneously press the and the for a few seconds.

The BIOS displays "MCX:001" in the top right corner, indicating the CAN address of AK-PC 78x. The "50K" displayed represents the CAN baud rate.
These are the default settings, and no changes are needed. If for some reason you are seeing something different you can check the following settings: · under "COM Selection," choose "CAN" from the available options: CAN, RS232, and RS485

Operating Guide | X-Gate: How to integrate the AK2 over CANbus · Back in the BIOS menu: Press the down arrow to access the CAN settings. These settings control various aspects of CAN communication: Node ID, Baud Rate, Active Nodes, Diagnostics, and LSS.
· In Node ID you can select the CAN address for the display itself which is as default 126. In Baudrate we need to select 50K:

· under "Active Nodes," you can see the connected devices:

After the X-Gate configuration

5. Settings in X-Gate

Access you X-Gate and log in using your credentials (default user: admin; password: PASS). 1. Ensure that you have version 5.22 or higher:

8. Go to the Pack Controller settings. You should see various values displayed. Note that some values might appear as "NaN" if the corresponding functions are not used in the Pack Controller.

6. Glossary of terms

ED3/ED4
CDF (Configuration Description File) BMS (Building Management System)
PLC (Programmable Logic Controller)
Scada (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition)

These files are used to store configuration settings, and other information for Danfoss devices. They are essential for maintaining and updating Danfoss equipment, ensuring that the devices operate efficiently and according to the latest specifications.
CDF is used to store configuration settings and parameters for controllers.
A BMS, also known as a Building Automation System (BAS), is a control system used in buildings to manage and monitor the building's mechanical and electrical equipment.
A PLC is an industrial digital computer designed for the control and automation of manufacturing processes, such as assembly lines, robotic devices, or any activity that requires high reliability, ease of programming, and process fault diagnosis.
Scada is a system used for remote monitoring and control of industrial processes. It gathers real-time data from remote locations to control equipment and conditions
