TSX 37 05/08/10/21/22 PLCs

Functions
Discrete inputs/outputs
1 The range of in-rack discrete I/O modules offers several possibilities for meeting
requirements:
b Cost-effective connection where a c 24 V solution is required (mixed I/O modules
with HE type 10 connectors for direct connection to pre-actuators in the device using
cables with flying leads or direct connection to the TELEFAST2 pre-wired system).
b Connection to the screw terminal block on the front panel of mixed I/O modules.

A set of half format modules enable the PLC configuration to be adapted as closely
as possible to the user's requirements in terms of number, range of I/O and type of
connection.

For further details, see pages 2/6 to 2/17.

The TSX DPZ 10D2A Preventa type safety relay module provides a monitoring
function for the emergency stop pushbuttons or limit switches, and is adapted to
conform to the safety requirements stipulated in EN 954-1.

For further details, see pages 2/18 to 2/23.

Remote discrete I/O extension module

TSX 37 10/21/22 Micro PLCS offer two different possibilities for extending the I/O:
b Either with the TSX STZ 10 remote discrete I/O extension module. The discrete I/
O of 4 Nano PLCs can be used at a distance of up to 200m (one of which can be a
Nano extension PLC).
These Nano PLCs can be used as remote discrete I/O or local slave PLCs.

For further details, see pages 2/24 et 2/25.

b The AS-Interface sensor/actuator bus. TSX Micro PLCs are connected to the
AS-Interface bus via an AS-Interface master module. In this case, the PLC becomes
the master station on the bus and manages a maximum of 248 I/O over a distance
of up to 100 m (200 m with a repeater).

For further details, see pages 4/26 to 4/29.

b The CANopen machine bus. The communication of the Micro TSX 37 21/22 PLCs
enables the connectivity to the CANopen machine bus. It is appeared as a PCMCIA
card equipped with a cable (length 0.5m) and a tap junction (with 9-way SUB-D
connector). This TSX CPP 110 kit allows the direct linking to the bus and ensures the
role of the master on the CANopen bus. The PCMCIA card is inserted into the
reserved slot for communication card, available on the TSX 37 21 and TSX 37 22.

For further details, see pages 4/22 to 4/25.

Analogue I/O and process control

TSX Micro PLCs offer several ways of performing analogue processing:

b For data input or commands which do not need a high resolution level, using I/O
integrated in TSX 37 22 PLCs.
b For precise measurement and commands, using TSX AEZ/ASZ/AMZ ppp half
format analogue I/O modules.
b To locate analog I/O remotely via the TSX STZ 10 rackmaster module with
TSX 37 10/21/22 PLCs. The latter enables the use of three TSX AMN 400p analog
extensions, each equipped with 3 analogue inputs and one analog output.

For further details, see pages 3/5 and 3/6.

TSX Micro PLCs have, as standard, process control functions which can be
accessed by the user via the PL7 Micro, PL7 Junior or PL7 Pro programming
software.

For further details, see pages 3/10 to 3/13.

Counting/positioning

Counter modules TSX Micro PLCs offer several ways of counting:

1
b Using 500 Hz discrete inputs (2 up/down counter channels with upcounting,
downcounting or up/down counting functions, with or without detection of direction of
operation).

b 10 kHz counter channels integrated into TSX 37 22 PLC bases (2 10 kHZ fast
counter channels, with 1 channel having down-counting functions as above).

b Counting/positioning TSX CTZ modules pA, from 40...500 kHz or TSX CTZ 2B,
from 200 kHz...1 MHz. These half format modules are inserted in the available slots
in the base rack.

TSX Micro PLCs offer several possibilities:

b Integrated communication which offers cost-effective dialogue functions via the

terminal port for TSX 37 05/08/10 PLCs or via the terminal and man-machine
interface ports for TSX 37 21/22 PLCs. These RS 485 type non-isolated links use
Uni-Telway master/slave, Modbus RTU slave or character string.
Also TSX 37 10/21/22 PLCs integrate Modbus master protocol.

b PCMCIA format communication card for TSX 37 21/22 PLCS. They have a
dedicated slot for the PCMCIA format communication card ("Full-duplex"
asynchronous serial link, CANopen bus, Fipio bus, Uni-Telway or Modbus, Modbus
Plus or Fipway network).

b Ethernet TCP/IP 10/100 MHz external modules. This external module connects to
the terminal port of TSX 37 10/21/22 PLCs and has Uni-TE and Modbus messaging.
It also allows connection to an external modem using PPP protocol.

For further details, see pages 4/6 to 4/21.

Fan modules

TSX FAN ppP fan modules installed above TSX Micro PLCs ensure a forced air
convection, which creates a uniform ambient temperature within the enclosure and
eliminates any hot spots which might exist.

Fan modules are required when the ambient temperature is between 60 °C and
70 °C. Forced ventilation is used to eliminate hot spots (1).
Three types of fan module are available: c 24 V, a 110 V and a 220 V.

One fan module is required for a TSX 37 05/08/10/21/22 configuration, two fan
TSX FAN ppP modules are required for a TSX 37 10/21/22 configuration with the TSX RKZ 02
mini rack.

TSX 37 05/08/10 TSX 37 10 + TSX RKZ 02

TSX 37 08/21/22 TSX 37 21/22 + TSX RKZ 02 (1) For an ambient temperature of between 25 °C…60 °C, the use of fan modules increases the
MBTF.

TSX 37 05/08/10/21/22 PLCs

Memory structure

1 The memory structure of TSX Micro PLCs consists of two distinct zones:
b An internal RAM memory designed to receive the application (data, program and
constants) of
v 11 Kwords for TSX 37 05/08 PLCs,
v 14 Kwords for the TSX 37 10 PLC,
v 20 Kwords for TSX 37 21/22 PLCs.
b A Flash EPROM memory of:
v 12 Kwords for TSX 37 05/08 PLCs,
v 16 Kwords for TSX 37 10/21/22 PLCs
designed to back up the application program (11 or 14 Kwords maximum) and to
back up 1024 %MW internal words in the event of a battery failure or no battery.

For TSX 37 21/22 PLCs, the internal RAM memory can be extended via a 32, 64 or
128 Kwords PCMCIA memory card, either RAM or Flash EPROM. The same
memory card incorporated the possibility of contained a storage zone for additional
data, e.g. for production data and manufacturing recipes.

PCMCIA memory extension cards for TSX 37 21/22 PLCs

These cards can be used to extend the PLC internal memory for storing the
application program and constants.
Two types of memory card are available:
b Battery-backed RAM type memory card
Used in particular during application program creation and debugging, this card
enables all application transfer and modification services in online mode.
The memory is backed up by a removable battery integrated in the memory card.
b Flash EPROM type memory card
Used when the debugging of the application program is complete, this card enables
one global transfer only of the application and avoids the problems of backup via
battery.

A third type of card can also be used to store additional data:

b Battery-backed RAM type memory card or battery-backed RAM and Flash
EPROM
Used particularly in association with the Modem link, these are used to extend the
processor's internal memory, and also to store recipe or data log for later consultation
via a telephone link.
The RAM memory is backed up by a removable battery integrated in the
memory card.

Another type of PCMCIA memory card is available:

b Backup type memory card (for TSX 37 21/22 PLCs)
Previously loaded with the application program, this card is used to reload the
application program into the internal RAM memory and the internal Flash EPROM
memory of the processor, without requiring the use of a programming terminal.

Program loader

The TSX PRG LDR module is designed to simplify duplicating or updating

1
applications on Nano and TSX Micro PLCs without the need for a programming
terminal. An application (15 Kwords maximum in internal RAM) can be transferred
from a PLC in the TSX PRG LDR module (and saved within it), then transferred from
the TSX PRG LDR module to the PLC.

The front panel of the TSX PRG LDR module comprises:

2
1 A cord for connecting to the PLC terminal port.
3 2 Four operation indicator LEDs.
3 A W/R button which selects the program transfer direction (PLC V module or
module V PLC).
4 A GO button to start the transfer.
5 A Write Only switch which prevents PLC V module transfer.
6 A Program Protect switch which protects the PLC application as read-only after
6 5 4
the transfer.

TSX 37 05/08/10/21/22 PLCs

Application memory

The application memory is divided into memory zones, which are physically shared
between the internal RAM memory and the PCMCIA memory card (if the TSX 37 21/
1
22 PLC has a memory card):

b The application data zone which is always is the internal RAM memory.
b The application program zone in the internal RAM memory or on the PCMCIA
memory card.
b The constants zone in the internal RAM memory or on the PCMCIA memory card.
b The Flash EPROM zone for the application program backup, the constants and
1 K internal words.
b The file storage zone in the PCMCIA memory card.

If the content of the RAM memory is lost (battery fault or no battery) then the content
of the Flash EPROM memory (program, constants and 1 K internal words) is
automatically transferred to the internal RAM memory. The backup copy of the
application in the Flash EPROM memory requires that the PLC does not have a
PCMCIA memory extension card and that the size of the program and the constants
does not exceed 16 Kwords.

Two types of application memory organization are possible for TSX Micro PLCs
depending on whether the PLC is equipped with a memory extension in the form of a
PCMCIA card:

Backup application
Micro TSX 37 21/22 PLCs make it possible to save the 32 Kwords maximum
application (programs and constants) on a Backup TSX MFP BAK 032P memory
card. The internal RAM memory can thus be reloaded with the contents of this
Backup memory card.
This Backup function is not available if the application runs on a PCMCIA RAM or
Flash EPROM memory card.
