# Product Introduction
The HIMA-6E-B Large System Controller is likely a large-scale system controller within HIMA's HIMatrix series. The HIMatrix series controllers are Programmable Electronic Safety Systems (PES), and the following introduction is based on the characteristics of HIMatrix series products:
## Core Functions
- **Rapid Response**: The overall response time is ≤20ms, and the cycle scan time per kilobyte of program is approximately 0.02ms, meeting the strict time requirements in safety-critical applications.
- **Safety Control**: As the core of the safety control system, it can process safety-related data, make safety decisions, and control actuators to ensure that factories or machines operate in a safe state. It complies with stringent safety standards such as IEC 61508.
- **Data Processing**: It efficiently handles multiple control loops and data processing tasks. For example, the cycle time for 1000 I/Os is 50 milliseconds (with analog and digital signals each accounting for 50%), and the impact of calculating 1000 PID loops on the cycle time is only 10 milliseconds.
- **Communication Capabilities**: It supports various safety communication protocols, including Safe Ethernet, Profibus-DP, OPC, Modbus RTU and TCP master & slave, send & receive TCP, Ethernet/IP, Interbus master, etc. This facilitates communication with other safety controllers, factory information systems, and human-machine interfaces (HMIs) to achieve centralized monitoring and control.
## Product Features
- **Modular Design** (Note: Further details on modular design features can be supplemented based on specific product specifications, such as scalable I/O modules, flexible configuration options, or easy maintenance through modular components.)
Electrical Safety: Ensure the controller is powered off before wiring or module replacement. Use a grounded power supply complying with local electrical standards (e.g., 24V DC ±10%).
Environmental Requirements: Install the controller in a dust-free, vibration-resistant enclosure with ambient temperature maintained between -20°C and +60°C and relative humidity ≤90% (non-condensing).
Certification Compliance: Do not modify hardware or software without HIMA authorization, as this may invalidate safety certifications (e.g., IEC 61508 SIL 3).
Verify the package includes the HIMA-6E-B controller, power cable, mounting brackets, and user documentation.
Check for physical damage to the controller or connectors; contact HIMA support if damage is found.
Use the provided brackets to mount the controller on a DIN rail (EN 50022 standard) or a flat panel. Ensure a minimum clearance of 100mm for ventilation.
Power Supply: Connect the 24V DC power cable to the terminal labeled "PWR IN"; secure with cable clamps to prevent disconnection.
I/O Modules: Connect field devices (sensors, actuators) to I/O modules via terminal blocks, following the wiring diagram in Appendix A.
Communication: Connect Ethernet/Profibus cables to the corresponding ports; use shielded cables for EMI protection.
After wiring, power on the controller. The status LED "PWR" will light green if power is 正常 (normal).
Install HIMA’s programming software (e.g., HIMatrix Studio) on a PC and connect via Ethernet.
Create a new project, select "HIMA-6E-B" as the controller model, and configure basic parameters (IP address, communication protocols).
Use function blocks (e.g., emergency stop, interlock) to program safety logic in compliance with site safety requirements.
Compile and download the program to the controller; verify the "RUN" LED turns green to indicate successful operation.
