Description
Our suppliers are continuously optimising and changing their manufacturing process to continue to deliver us
high quality and reliable products.
In order to mitigate the raw components shortage our supplier had to change internal manufacturing process
of the aluminium profile production for the braking resistor used for ACOPOSmulti and ACOPOS P3 product
family.
Impacted products
The following products are impacted:

2022-October-05
4/5
Only IP65 braking resistor are impacted.
The Z0 price is unchanged.
Changes & compatibility
The new revision of the 8B0W00xxH000.001-1 is technically 100% compatible. The new revision is even
performing a bit better.
Nevertheless, due to the new manufacturing process the braking resistor length has been increased by
23mm. As this braking resistor is IP65 and normally used outside of the electrical cabinet the change in
length should not have big impact in most of cases.
All other dimension as well as fixation points are exactly the same.
User's Manual and Datasheet will be updated.

Roadmap
Our supplier does not offer us the possibility to set up Last Time Buy for the old mechanical design of the

Therefore the change in stock will be effective in October 2022. For about 2 weeks, customers could receive
ether the old revision C0 and/or the new revision D0. The customer will have to take care by himself of this
change.
Customer information
All customers who is buying these braking resistor must be immediately informed.
Documentation has been updated and is already available on our website.

Key Information
Due to the lower demand for printed training modules looking back on
the deliveries of the last 18 months, we have decided to discontinue
most the existing training modules. Only a selection of high runner
training modules will be available from stock. In this way, we can
optimize procurement and logistics costs and also pay better attention
to the environment. All training modules will remain to be available for
download on the B&R website.

modules rely on a consistent didactic concept. Their bottom-up structure allows complex, interrelated topics
to be learned efficiently and effectively. They serve as the best possible companion to our extensive
Automation help documentation.
Standard training material for customers
Is used as a personal handout during the basic trainings
Some of them, can be ordered by order code (see barcode on the back cover of the Training Module)
All of them, can be downloaded (login required) by customers from our website

Digitalization of training modules - reduction of logistics effort and cost
The world is getting more digital by the time. Paper is still a valuable source for providing information during
training. Nevertheless, we got used to digital documents while working at home and during distance
learning.
In order to save costs by reducing logistics efforts we decided to analyze the consumption of printed training
modules from the period of 1st of January 2021 to 1st of July 2022.
The quantity delivered fell by around 75% from 17,000 pieces in 2019. Of some order codes, we have only
sent a single-digit number within 2 years.
We identified the list of "high runner" Training Modules by 19th of July 2022 - looking back the last 18 month -
minimum shipment quantity within 18 month is 75 pieces.
The B&R brand refresh is a good opportunity to clean up our stock. We will discontinue all order codes.
The high runners we could identify will get a new order code and will be available from stock by applying the
new B&R brand experience.
All other materials will be available for download.

General Information
As you know, we have brand labelled the entire Panel and accessory product portfolio of the Power Panel
Field Terminal 50 (PFT50) products from the company called EXOR.
The decision for "BUY" vs "MAKE" was taken mainly because of their very attractive products and its prices.
Unfortunately EXOR has changed its price policy recently and they have increased the product transfer
prices up to 93%.
Several attempts to negotiate and reduce those price increases failed - even with EXOR's C-Level.
In order to fullfill our own delivery obligations in the direction of our customers we have to accept the new
product prices from EXOR.
Due to the high increase and the rather short notice from EXOR, we are not able to cover the total cost
increase with the latest price increase from July.
Therefore we have to perform an extraordinary price increase for this product group only. The following
pricing will be active by October 1st 2022.

Introduction
With the increasing adoption of digitalization, some applications in the machine automation domain are
trending towards requiring solutions beyond the traditional tasks of a PLC. These applications may utilize
programming languages such as JavaScript, Python, C++, etc., to build future-proof and featureful systems.
B&R's enhanced crossover for Operating System, exOS, makes it possible to incorporate Linux software into
industrial control systems enabling state-of-the-art automation solutions.
The machine builders primarily use the PLC system for time-critical applications with high-speed motion or I/
Os to achieve fast and deterministic response times, an essential element in building safe machines with
high throughput. This part requires a real-time operating system such as our Automation Runtime, typically
programmed via IEC 61131-3 languages such as Ladder, ST, FBD, C/C++, Etc. Now, with the help of exOS,
programmers can also develop Linux software that should directly run on the machine at near-real-time
speed and synchronization to explore the possibilities below.
Managing advanced databases
Deploying sophisticated path-planning algorithms
Establishing cloud connectivity
Executing machine learning models
Artificial Intelligence optimization loops
exOS is now a released product, allowing a straightforward integration of Linux-based software with B&R
Automation Studio and Automation Runtime environment with B&R Hypervisor, empowering many innovative
use-cases with emerging technologies. It is available as a Technology Package in the upgrades dialog of

Software features and technical details
exOS packages (with source-code or binary executables) become an integrated part of an Automation Studio
project. After the deployment of the machine software on Automation Runtime with B&R Hypervisor
technology and Linux, these software packages automatically get deployed to Linux, providing deep
integration of B&R Automation Runtime and the Linux system with the following functionality:
Software management
The exOS Technology Package allows adding Linux software alongside AR resources in an Automation
Studio project. In other words, exOS packages contain both Automation Runtime and Linux modules,
which are handled together in the Logical view of Automation Studio. The whole machine automation
software is therefore managed from a single point.Copyright © B&R - Automatic generated PDF, Subject to change without notice

2022-August-04

Deployment, execution and diagnostics
Users can configure the deployment and execution of Linux programs via the exOS Technology
Package in the Configuration view of Automation Studio. The PLC is then in charge of transferring the
according files to the target Linux system and handles installation, removal, upgrade, and execution of
the software modules.
The state of the Linux target and its components can be constantly monitored from the PLC side via
diagnosis function blocks. In addition, all output (i.e., stdout, stderr) of Linux services for installation,
startup, or removal, as well as all failure output (i.e., stderr) of runtime services, is logged and forwarded
to the Automation Runtime Logbook. So it is accessible via Automation Studio, SDM, and Runtime
Utility center.
Efficient maintenance
exOS software management takes place via Automation Runtime, ensuring synchronization between
the software modules and versions configured in the Automation Studio project and on the actual target
system. Similar to firmware updates of field devices running automatically in the background, this allows
for simple software updates in the field with minimal machine downtime.Copyright © B&R - Automatic generated PDF, Subject to change without notice

All mechanisms of PLC software transfer can be used with exOS as well. So it includes updates via
USB sticks, FTP server, or RUC installation scripts.
The AS/AR-based software management can also be combined with other mechanisms from the Linux
or IT world such as package management with software repositories (e.g. via APT), containerized
subsystems or the creation/duplication of pre-made system images.
Communication and time synchronization
Each exOS component consists of two parts, one for the AR side and the other for the Linux side.
Those parts are connected via an internal communication channel. Data is therein described as a data
model which organizes datasets that can be published and subscribed. The exOS data communication
mechanism ensures data consistency and transmission of all published data together with a
synchronized origin NETTIME.
Data communication uses an event-based, buffered approach to bridge the hard-realtime AR with a
best-effort or soft-realtime Linux system.Copyright © B&R - Automatic generated PDF, Subject to change without notice

Using the B&R Hypervisor technology, data transmission takes place in the millisecond range, and
shared memory allows for high-bandwidth data exchange between the systems, but B&R does not
guarantee in terms of deterministic real-time behavior between Automation Runtime and Linux.
