xxiv

Safety Precautions

3
The PLC will turn OFF all outputs when its self-diagnosis function detects any error or when a severe failure alarm (FALS) instruction is executed. As a countermeasure for such errors, external safety measures must be provided to ensure safety in the system. The PLC or outputs may remain ON or OFF due to deposits on or burning of the output relays, or destruction of the output transistors. As a countermeasure for such problems, external safety measures must be provided to ensure safety in the system. When the 24-V DC output (service power supply to the PLC) is overloaded or short-circuited, the voltage may drop and result in the outputs being turned OFF. As a countermeasure for such problems, external safety measures must be provided to ensure safety in the system.

!WARNING Fail-safe measures must be taken by the customer to ensure safety in the
event of incorrect, missing, or abnormal signals caused by broken signal lines, momentary power interruptions, or other causes. Not doing so may result in serious accidents. !Caution Execute online edit only after confirming that no adverse effects will be caused by extending the cycle time. Otherwise, the input signals may not be readable. !Caution Confirm safety at the destination node before transferring a program to another node or editing the I/O area. Doing either of these without confirming safety may result in injury. !Caution Tighten the screws on the terminal block of the AC power supply to the torque specified in this manual. The loose screws may result in burning or malfunction. !Caution Do not touch anywhere near the power supply parts or I/O terminals while the power is ON, and immediately after turning OFF the power. The hot surface may cause burn injury. !Caution Pay careful attention to the polarities (+/-) when wiring the DC power supply. A wrong connection may cause malfunction of the system. !Caution When connecting the PLC to a computer or other peripheral device, either ground the 0 V side of the external power supply or do not ground the external power supply at all. Otherwise the external power supply may be shorted depending on the connection methods of the peripheral device. DO NOT ground the 24 V side of the external power supply, as shown in the following diagram.

Operating Environment Precautions

!Caution After programming (or reprogramming) using the IOWR instruction, confirm that correct operation is possible with the new ladder program and data before starting actual operation. Any irregularities may cause the product to stop operating, resulting in unexpected operation in machinery or equipment. !Caution The CP1L CPU Units automatically back up the user program and parameter data to flash memory when these are written to the CPU Unit. I/O memory (including the DM Area, counter present values and Completion Flags, and HR Area), however, is not written to flash memory. The DM Area, counter present values and Completion Flags, and HR Area can be held during power interruptions with a battery. If there is a battery error, the contents of these areas may not be accurate after a power interruption. If the contents of the DM Area, counter present values and Completion Flags, and HR Area are used to control external outputs, prevent inappropriate outputs from being made whenever the Battery Error Flag (A402.04) is ON.

Operating Environment Precautions


!Caution Do not operate the control system in the following locations: Locations subject to direct sunlight. Locations subject to temperatures or humidity outside the range specified in the specifications. Locations subject to condensation as the result of severe changes in temperature. Locations subject to corrosive or flammable gases. Locations subject to dust (especially iron dust) or salts. Locations subject to exposure to water, oil, or chemicals. Locations subject to shock or vibration. !Caution Take appropriate and sufficient countermeasures when installing systems in the following locations: Locations subject to static electricity or other forms of noise. Locations subject to strong electromagnetic fields. Locations subject to possible exposure to radioactivity. Locations close to power supplies. !Caution The operating environment of the PLC System can have a large effect on the longevity and reliability of the system. Improper operating environments can lead to malfunction, failure, and other unforeseeable problems with the PLC System. Make sure that the operating environment is within the specified conditions at installation and remains within the specified conditions during the life of the system.

Application Precautions

Application Precautions
Observe the following precautions when using the PLC System.

!WARNING Always heed these precautions. Failure to abide by the following precautions
could lead to serious or possibly fatal injury. Always connect to 100 or less when installing the Units. Not connecting to a ground of 100 or less may result in electric shock. Always turn OFF the power supply to the PLC before attempting any of the following. Not turning OFF the power supply may result in malfunction or electric shock. Mounting or dismounting Expansion Units or any other Units Connecting or removing the Memory Cassette or Option Board Setting DIP switches or rotary switches Connecting or wiring the cables Connecting or disconnecting the connectors !Caution Failure to abide by the following precautions could lead to faulty operation of the PLC or the system, or could damage the PLC or PLC Units. Always heed these precautions. Install external breakers and take other safety measures against short-circuiting in external wiring. Insufficient safety measures against short-circuiting may result in burning. Mount the Unit only after checking the connectors and terminal blocks completely. Be sure that all the terminal screws and cable connector screws are tightened to the torque specified in the relevant manuals. Incorrect tightening torque may result in malfunction. Wire all connections correctly according to instructions in this manual. Always use the power supply voltage specified in the operation manuals. An incorrect voltage may result in malfunction or burning. Take appropriate measures to ensure that the specified power with the rated voltage and frequency is supplied. Be particularly careful in places where the power supply is unstable. An incorrect power supply may result in malfunction. Leave the label attached to the Unit when wiring. Removing the label may result in malfunction. Remove the label after the completion of wiring to ensure proper heat dissipation. Leaving the label attached may result in malfunction. Use crimp terminals for wiring. Do not connect bare stranded wires directly to terminals. Connection of bare stranded wires may result in burning. Do not apply voltages to the input terminals in excess of the rated input voltage. Excess voltages may result in burning. Do not apply voltages or connect loads to the output terminals in excess of the maximum switching capacity. Excess voltage or loads may result in burning.

xxvii

Application Precautions

5
Be sure that the terminal blocks, connectors, Option Boards, and other items with locking devices are properly locked into place. Improper locking may result in malfunction. Disconnect the functional ground terminal when performing withstand voltage tests. Not disconnecting the functional ground terminal may result in burning. Wire correctly and double-check all the wiring or the setting switches before turning ON the power supply. Incorrect wiring may result in burning. Check that the DIP switches and data memory (DM) are properly set before starting operation. Check the user program for proper execution before actually running it on the Unit. Not checking the program may result in an unexpected operation. Resume operation only after transferring to the new CPU Unit the contents of the DM, HR, and CNT Areas required for resuming operation. Not doing so may result in an unexpected operation. Confirm that no adverse effect will occur in the system before attempting any of the following. Not doing so may result in an unexpected operation. Changing the operating mode of the PLC (including the setting of the startup operating mode). Force-setting/force-resetting any bit in memory. Changing the present value of any word or any set value in memory. Do not pull on the cables or bend the cables beyond their natural limit. Doing either of these may break the cables. Do not place objects on top of the cables. Doing so may break the cables. When replacing parts, be sure to confirm that the rating of a new part is correct. Not doing so may result in malfunction or burning. Before touching the Unit, be sure to first touch a grounded metallic object in order to discharge any static buildup. Not doing so may result in malfunction or damage. Do not touch the Expansion I/O Unit Connecting Cable while the power is being supplied in order to prevent malfunction due to static electricity. Do not turn OFF the power supply to the Unit while data is being transferred. When transporting or storing the product, cover the PCBs with electrically conductive materials to prevent LSIs and ICs from being damaged by static electricity, and also keep the product within the specified storage temperature range. Do not touch the mounted parts or the rear surface of PCBs because PCBs have sharp edges such as electrical leads. Double-check the pin numbers when assembling and wiring the connectors. Wire correctly according to specified procedures. Do not connect pin 6 (+5V) on the RS-232C Option Board (CP1W-CIF01) on the CPU Unit to any external device other than the NT-AL001 or CP1W-CIF11 Conversion Adapter. The external device and the CPU Unit may be damaged.

xxviii

Application Precautions

5
Use the dedicated connecting cables specified in this manual to connect the Units. Using commercially available RS-232C computer cables may cause failures in external devices or the CPU Unit. The user program and parameter area data in the CPU Unit is backed up in the built-in flash memory. The BKUP indicator will light on the front of the CPU Unit when the backup operation is in progress. Do not turn OFF the power supply to the CPU Unit when the BKUP indicator is lit. The data will not be backed up if power is turned OFF. Do not turn OFF the power supply to the PLC while the Memory Cassette is being written. Doing so may corrupt the data in the Memory Cassette. The BKUP indicator will light while the Memory Cassette is being written. Wait for the BKUP indicator to go out before turning OFF the power supply to the PLC. Before replacing the battery, supply power to the CPU Unit for at least 5 minutes and then complete battery replacement within 5 minutes of turn OFF the power supply. Memory data may be corrupted if this precaution is not observed. Always use the following size wire when connecting I/O terminals: AWG22 to AWG18 (0.32 to 0.82 mm2). Dispose of the product and batteries according to local ordinances as they apply. Have qualified specialists properly dispose of used batteries as industrial waste.

UL standards required that batteries be replaced only by experienced technicians. Do not allow unqualified persons to replace batteries. Also, always follow the replacement procedure provided in the manual. Never short-circuit the positive and negative terminals of a battery or charge, disassemble, heat, or incinerate the battery. Do not subject the battery to strong shocks or deform the barry by applying pressure. Doing any of these may result in leakage, rupture, heat generation, or ignition of the battery. Dispose of any battery that has been dropped on the floor or otherwise subjected to excessive shock. Batteries that have been subjected to shock may leak if they are used. Always construct external circuits so that the power to the PLC it turned ON before the power to the control system is turned ON. If the PLC power supply is turned ON after the control power supply, temporary errors may result in control system signals because the output terminals on DC Output Units and other Units will momentarily turn ON when power is turned ON to the PLC. Fail-safe measures must be taken by the customer to ensure safety in the event that outputs from Output Units remain ON as a result of internal circuit failures, which can occur in relays, transistors, and other elements. If the I/O Hold Bit is turned ON, the outputs from the PLC will not be turned OFF and will maintain their previous status when the PLC is switched from RUN or MONITOR mode to PROGRAM mode. Make sure that the external loads will not produce dangerous conditions when this occurs. (When operation stops for a fatal error, including those produced with the FALS(007) instruction, all outputs from Output Unit will be turned OFF and only the internal output status will be maintained.)

Conformance to EC Directives
Applicable Directives
EMC Directives Low Voltage Directive

6-2

Concepts
EMC Directives OMRON devices that comply with EC Directives also conform to the related EMC standards so that they can be more easily built into other devices or the overall machine. The actual products have been checked for conformity to EMC standards (see the following note). Whether the products conform to the standards in the system used by the customer, however, must be checked by the customer. EMC-related performance of the OMRON devices that comply with EC Directives will vary depending on the configuration, wiring, and other conditions of the equipment or control panel on which the OMRON devices are installed. The customer must, therefore, perform the final check to confirm that devices and the overall machine conform to EMC standards. Note The applicable EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibility) standard is EN61131-2. Low Voltage Directive Always ensure that devices operating at voltages of 50 to 1,000 V AC and 75 to 1,500 V DC meet the required safety standards for the PLC (EN61131-2).

6-3

Conformance to EC Directives
The CP1L PLCs comply with EC Directives. To ensure that the machine or device in which the CP1L PLC is used complies with EC Directives, the PLC must be installed as follows: 1,2,3... 1. The CP1L PLC must be installed within a control panel. 2. You must use reinforced insulation or double insulation for the DC power supplies used for I/O Units and CPU Units requiring DC power. The output holding time must be 10 ms minimum for the DC power supply connected to the power supply terminals on Units requiring DC power. 3. CP1L PLCs complying with EC Directives also conform to EN61131-2. Radiated emission characteristics (10-m regulations) may vary depending on the configuration of the control panel used, other devices connected to the control panel, wiring, and other conditions. You must therefore confirm that the overall machine or equipment complies with EC Directives.

6-4

Relay Output Noise Reduction Methods


The CP1L PLCs conforms to the Common Emission Standards (EN61131-2) of the EMC Directives. However, noise generated by relay output switching may not satisfy these Standards. In such a case, a noise filter must be connected to the load side or other appropriate countermeasures must be provided external to the PLC. Countermeasures taken to satisfy the standards vary depending on the devices on the load side, wiring, configuration of machines, etc. Following are examples of countermeasures for reducing the generated noise.

xxx

Conformance to EC Directives Countermeasures

Countermeasures are not required if the frequency of load switching for the whole system with the PLC included is less than 5 times per minute. Countermeasures are required if the frequency of load switching for the whole system with the PLC included is more than 5 times per minute. Note Refer to EN61131-2 for more details.

Countermeasure Examples
When switching an inductive load, connect an surge protector, diodes, etc., in parallel with the load or contact as shown below.
Circuit Current AC Yes
C R

Characteristic If the load is a relay or solenoid, there is a time lag between the moment the circuit is opened and the moment the load is reset. If the supply voltage is 24 or 48 V, insert the surge protector in parallel with the load. If the supply voltage is 100 to 200 V, insert the surge protector between the contacts.

The capacitance of the capacitor must be 1 to 0.5 F per contact current of 1 A and resistance of the resistor must be 0.5 to 1 per contact voltage of 1 V. These values, however, vary with the load and the characteristics of the relay. Decide these values from experiments, and take into consideration that the capacitance suppresses spark discharge when the contacts are separated and the resistance limits the current that flows into the load when the circuit is closed again. The dielectric strength of the capacitor must be 200 to 300 V. If the circuit is an AC circuit, use a capacitor with no polarity. The diode connected in parallel with The reversed dielectric strength value the load changes energy accumulated of the diode must be at least 10 times by the coil into a current, which then as large as the circuit voltage value. flows into the coil so that the current will The forward current of the diode must be converted into Joule heat by the be the same as or larger than the load resistance of the inductive load. current.

The varistor method prevents the impo- --sition of high voltage between the contacts by using the constant voltage characteristic of the varistor. There is time lag between the moment the circuit is opened and the moment the load is reset. If the supply voltage is 24 or 48 V, insert the varistor in parallel with the load. If the supply voltage is 100 to 200 V, insert the varistor between the contacts.

Positioning with an Inverter

Positioning can be controlled using an inverter. Previous a internal pulse output with trapezoidal acceleration/deceleration is created using the PULSE OUTPUT instruction. The position offset is calculated using an error counter for the feedback pulse input from a rotary encoder connected to an inductive motor and the internal pulse output. The error counter is then used to output a speed command to the inverter to control positioning. This enables positioning with high-capacity motors, as well as low-cost positioning with small-capacity motors (in comparison to using a servo).

Features and Main Functions


A virtual pulse output is created using a pulse output instruction, the position offset is calculated using an error counter, and a frequency (i.e., speed) command is output according to the position offset to control positioning.

Section 1-1

Pulse Output Instruction Frequency command Pulse input Encoder Motor Inverter

Note

If high-precision positioning is required, we recommend using an inverter with vector control. High-speed counter inputs can be enabled by connecting rotary encoders to the built-in inputs. The ample number of high-speed counter inputs makes it possible to control a multi-axis device with a single PLC. Four 100-kHz (single phase)/50-kHz (differential phases) high-speed counter inputs (4 counters/2 axes) are provided as a standard feature. (See note.)

Note

Settings in the PLC Setup determine whether each input point is to be used as a normal input, interrupt input, quick-response input, or high-speed counter.

Features and Main Functions


Full Complement of Highspeed Counter Functions

Section 1-1

High-speed Processing for High-speed Counter Present Value (PV) Target Values or Range Comparison Interrupts An interrupt task can be started when the count reaches a specified value or falls within a specified range. High-speed Counter Input Frequency (Speed) Monitoring The input pulse frequency can be monitored using the PRV instruction (one point (counter 0) only, and you must select whether to use input frequency monitoring or counter 3; you cannot use both). High-speed Counter PV Holding/Refreshing It is possible to toggle between holding and refreshing the high-speed counter PV by turning ON and OFF the High-speed Counter Gate Flag from the ladder program.

Versatile Pulse Control (CPU Units with Transistor Outputs Only)

Positioning and speed control by a pulse-input servo driver is enabled by outputting fixed duty ratio pulse output signals from the CPU Unit's built-in outputs. Pulse outputs for 2 axes at 100 kHz maximum are provided as standard features. (See note.)

16 built-in outputs (Functions assigned.) 2 pulse outputs 100 kHz

Note Full Complement of Pulse Output Functions

The instruction used to control each output point determines whether it is used as a normal output, pulse output, or PWM output.

Select CW/CCW Pulse Outputs or Pulse Plus Direction Outputs for the Pulse Outputs The pulse outputs can be selected to match the pulse input specifications of the motor driver. Easy Positioning with Absolute Coordinate System Using Automatic Direction Setting For operations in an absolute coordinate system (i.e., when the origin is established or when the PV is changed by the INI instruction), the CW/CCW direction can be automatically set when PULSE OUTPUT instructions are executed according to whether the specified number of output pulses is more or less than the pulse output PV.

Features and Main Functions


Triangular Control

Section 1-1

If the amount of output pulses required for acceleration and deceleration (the target frequency times the time to reach the target frequency) exceeds the preset target number of output pulses during positioning (when the ACC instruction in independent mode or the PLS2 instruction is executed), the acceleration and deceleration will be shortened and triangular control will be executed instead of trapezoidal control. In other words, the trapezoidal pulse output will be eliminated, with no period of constant speed. Target Position Changes during Positioning (Multiple Start) While positioning using a PULSE OUTPUT (PLS2) instruction is in progress, the target position, target speed, acceleration rate, and deceleration rate can be changed by executing another PLS2 instruction. Positioning Changes during Speed Control (Interrupt Feeding) While speed control in continuous mode is in effect, it is possible to change to positioning in independent mode by executing a PULSE OUTPUT (PLS2) instruction. By this means, interrupt feeding (moving a specified amount) can be executed under specified conditions. Target Speed, Acceleration Rate, and Deceleration Rate Changes during Acceleration or Deceleration When a PULSE OUTPUT instruction with trapezoidal acceleration and deceleration is executed (for speed control or positioning), the target speed and acceleration and deceleration rates can be changed during acceleration or deceleration. Lighting and Power Control by Outputting Variable Duty Ratio Pulses Operations, such as lighting and power control, can be handled by outputting variable duty ratio pulse (PWM) output signals from the CPU Unit's built-in outputs.

Origin Searches

Origin Search and Origin Return Operations Using a Single Instruction An accurate origin search combining all I/O signals (origin proximity input signal, origin input signal, positioning completed signal, error counter reset output, etc.) can be executed with a single instruction. It is also possible to move directly to an established origin using an origin return operation.

Input Interrupts

In direct mode, an interrupt task can be started when a built-in input turns ON or OFF. In counter mode, the rising or falling edges of built-in inputs can be counted, and an interrupt task started when the count reaches a specified value. The maximum number of interrupt input points is 6 for CPU Units with 20, 30, or 40 I/O points and 4 for CPU Units with 14 I/O points. Note For each input point, a selection in the PLC Setup determines whether it is to be used as a normal input, interrupt input, quick-response input, or highspeed counter. The interrupt input response frequency in counter mode must be 5 kHz or less total for all interrupts. By using quick-response inputs, built-in inputs up to a minimum input signal width of 50 s can be read regardless of the cycle time. The maximum number of quick-response input points is 6 for CPU Units with 20, 30, or 40 I/O points and 4 for CPU Units with 14 I/O points. Note For each input, a PLC Setup parameter determines whether it is to be used as a normal input, interrupt input, quick-response input, or high-speed counter.

Quick-response Inputs

Features and Main Functions Analog Settings


Changing Settings Using Analog Adjustment

Section 1-1

By adjusting the analog adjuster with a Phillips screwdriver, the value in the Auxiliary Area can be changed to any value between 0 and 255. This makes it easy to change set values such as timers and counters without Programming Devices.

CNTX A642

Turning the control on the CP1H changes the PV in A642 between 0000 and 0255 (00 and FF hex).

Example: The production quantity could be changed by changing the counter set value from 100 to 150.

Changing Settings Using External Analog Setting Inputs

External analog values of 0 to 10 V (resolution: 256) are converted to digital values and stored in a word in the AR Area. This enables applications that require on-site adjustment of settings that do not demand a particularly high degree of accuracy, such as for example, a setting based on changes in outdoor temperatures or potentiometer inputs.

When a voltage (0 to 10 V) is input from a device such as a potentiometer to the external analog setting input, the PV in A643 is refreshed between 0000 and 0100 hex (0 to 256).

Example: The production quantity could be changed by changing the timer set value from 100 to 150.

This is the faster mode, so it is generally used for CX-Programmer connections. Only 1: 1 connections are possible. When a CP1L CPU Unit is used, the baud rate is automatically detected by the Support Software. A standard protocol for host computers with either 1: 1 or 1: N connections. Slower than the peripheral bus mode. Allows modem or optical adapter connections, or longdistance or 1: N connections using RS-422A/485.

Turn ON pins SW4 (Serial Port 1) and SW5 (Serial Port 2) on the DIP switch on the front panel of the CPU Unit. These settings enable connection by peripheral bus regardless of the serial port settings in the PLC Setup. Turn OFF pins SW4 (Serial Port 1) and SW5 (Serial Port 2) on the DIP switch on the front panel of the CPU Unit. The mode will then be determined by the serial port settings in the PLC Setup. The default settings are for Host Link with a baud rate of 9,600 bits/s, 1 start bit, data length of 7 bits, even parity, and 2 stop bits.

Function Blocks

Section 1-5

1-5-1

Function Blocks
Function blocks can be used in programming SYSMAC CP-series PLCs.

Overview of Function Blocks


A function block is a basic program element containing a standard processing function that has been defined in advance. Once the function block has been defined, the user just has to insert the function block in the program and set the I/O in order to use the function. As a standard processing function, a function block is not created with actual physical addresses, but local variables. The user sets parameters (addresses or values) in those variables to use the function block. The addresses used for the variables themselves are automatically assigned by the system (CX-Programmer) each time they are placed in the program. In particular, each function block is saved by the CX-Programmer as an individual file that can be reused with programs for other PLCs. This makes it possible to create a library of standard processing functions.

Advantages of Function Blocks


Function blocks allow complex programming units to be reused easily. Once standard program sections have been created as function blocks and saved in files, they can be reused just by placing a function block in a program and setting the parameters for the function block's I/O. Reusing standardized function blocks reduces the time required for programming/debugging, reduces coding errors, and makes programs easier to understand.

Structured Programming
Easy-to-read Block Box Design

Structured programs created with function blocks have better design quality and required less development time. The I/O operands are displayed as local variable names in the program, so the program is like a black box when entering or reading the program and no extra time is wasted trying to understand the internal algorithm.

30

Function Blocks
Different Processes Easily Created from a Single Function Block Reduced Coding Errors Data Protection

Section 1-5
Many different processes can be created easily from a single function block by using input variables for the parameters (such as timer SVs, control constants, speed settings, and travel distances) in the standard process. Coding mistakes can be reduced, because blocks that have already been debugged can be reused. The local variables in the function block cannot be accessed directly from the outside, so the data can be protected. (Data cannot be changed unintentionally.) The function block's I/O is entered as local variables, so the data addresses in the function block do not have to be changed as they do when copying and reusing a program section. Processes that are independent and reusable (such as processes for individual steps, machinery, equipment, or control systems) can be saved as function block definitions and converted to library functions. The function blocks are created with local variable names that are not tied to physical addresses, so new programs can be developed easily just by reading the definitions from the file and placing them in a new program.

Improved Reusability through Programming with Variables

Creating Libraries

Nesting Multiple Languages

Mathematical expressions can be entered in structured text (ST) language. Nesting function blocks is supported for CX-Programmer Ver. 6.0 or higher. For example, it is possible to express only special operations in ST language within a function block in a ladder diagram.

Note

(1) The above values are for a cold start at room temperature for an AC power supply, and for a cold start for a DC power supply. A thermistor (with low-temperature current suppression characteristics) is used in the inrush current control circuitry for the AC power supply. The thermistor will not be sufficiently cooled if the ambient temperature is high or if a hot start is performed when the power supply has been OFF for only a short time, so in those cases the inrush current values may be higher (as much as two times higher) than those shown above. A capacitor delay circuit is used in the inrush current control circuitry for the DC power supply. The capacitor will not be charged if a hot start is performed when the power supply has been OFF for only a short time, so in those cases the inrush current values may be higher (as much as two times higher) than those shown above. Always allow for this when selecting fuses and breakers for external circuits. (2) Use the external power supply to power input devices. Do not use it to drive output devices. (3) This is the rated value for the maximum system configuration. Use the following formula to calculate DC power consumption for CPU Units with DC power.

Data is backed up from RAM to the built-in flash memory when changes are made, e.g., from the CX-Programmer. When the power supply is turned ON, data is transferred from the builtin flash memory to RAM.

(2)

A CX-Programmer operation can be used to transfer DM Area initial values from RAM to the built-in flash memory. The PLC Setup can be set so that DM Area initial values are transferred from the built-in flash memory to RAM when the power supply is turned ON.

(3)

CX-Programmer operations can be used to transfer data from RAM to the Memory Cassette or from the built-in flash memory to the Memory Cassette.

63

CP1L CPU Unit Operation

Section 2-3
When the power supply is turned ON, data is transferred from the Memory Cassette to the built-in flash memory and RAM. Data can also be transferred from the Memory Cassette to the built-in flash memory and RAM using the CX-Programmer.

User Program

The user program consists of up to 288 tasks, including interrupt tasks. Each task is programmed from the CX-Programmer and then transferred to the CPU Unit. There are two types of tasks: cyclic tasks and interrupt tasks. Cyclic tasks are executed once each cycle and interrupt tasks are executed only when the interrupt conditions are met. There can be up to 32 cyclic tasks and up to 256 interrupt tasks. Cyclic tasks are executed in the order of the task numbers. Instructions programmed in the tasks are executed in order from the first instruction and then I/O memory is refreshed. When all cyclic tasks have been executed, I/O refreshing with PLC Units is performed and then the cyclic tasks are executed again starting from the one with the lowest task number. This is called the cyclic scan method.

I/O Memory

The I/O memory area is a RAM area read and written by the user. Some parts of the I/O memory are cleared when the power is interrupted. Other parts are maintained. There are parts that used for data exchange with PLC Units and parts that are used internally. There are two ways to refresh the parts of I/O memory used for data exchange with PLC Units: Once each program execution cycle and immediately when needed when executing specific instructions.

Parameter Area

In addition to the I/O memory used as instructions operands by the user, there is also a separate memory area that can be manipulated only from the CXProgrammer. This area, called the parameter area, contains the following. PLC Setup Routing tables

PLC Setup

The PLC Setup contains configuration parameters that can be set by the user to define the basic specifications of the CPU Unit. Included are serial port settings, a minimum cycle time setting, and other parameters. For details, refer to the CX-Programmer Operation Manual.

64

CP1L CPU Unit Operation


Routing Tables

Section 2-3
Tables specifying the communications paths from the Communications Units on the local PLC to remote PLCs connected on other networks must be registered in all the CPU Units in network PLCs to send and receive data between networks. These tables are called the routing tables. The routing tables consist of the relay network table and local network table. Routing tables are created from the CX-Programmer or Support Software for Communications Units (e.g., CX-Integrator) and then transferred to each CPU Unit.

Once the routing tables have been registered, any remote network can be reached by passing through relay nodes. Local Network Table The local network table contains the unit number and network address of all Communications Units that are part of the local PLC.

Built-in Flash Memory

Flash memory is built into the CP1L CPU Units. Data in the following areas is automatically backed up to the flash memory whenever it is written in any way other than by instructions in the user program, e.g., when the CX-Programmer or PT is used to transfer or edit data, edit the program online, or transfer data from a Memory Cassette. User program area Parameter area (PLC Setup and routing tables) The next time the power supply is turned ON, the data in the built-in flash memory is automatically transferred to user memory (i.e., the user program area and parameter area). It is also possible to save data from data areas in I/O memory in the built-in flash memory using operations from the CX-Programmer. The symbol table, comment file, and program index file can be stored in the comment memory in flash memory. When the program is transferred from the CX-Programmer to the CPU Unit, function block program information is also stored automatically in flash memory.

Note

The BKUP indicator on the front of the CPU Unit will light whenever the built-in flash memory is being written or the Memory Cassette is being accessed.

65

CP1L CPU Unit Operation

Section 2-3
Never turn OFF the power supply to the CPU Unit when the BKUP indicator is lit.

Memory Cassette

Memory Cassettes can be used as required in system operation and maintenance. For example, they can be used to save programs, data memory contents, PLC Setup data, or I/O comments from the CX-Programmer. The contents of a Memory Cassette can also be automatically transferred if desired.

I/O Refreshing and Peripheral Servicing


I/O refreshing involves cyclically transferring data with external devices using preset words in memory. I/O refreshing includes the following: Refreshing between I/O words in the CIO Area and CPU Unit built-in I/O, CP/CPM1A-series Expansion Units, and CP/CPM1A-series Expansion I/O Units All I/O refreshing is performed in the same cycle (i.e., time slicing is not used). I/O refreshing is always performed after program execution.

I/O Refreshing

CP/CPM1A-series Expansion Fixed depending on Units I/O Bit Area Units and Expansion I/O Units

Peripheral Servicing

Peripheral servicing involves servicing non-scheduled events for external devices. This includes both events from external devices and service requests to external devices. Most peripheral servicing involves FINS commands. The specific amount of time set in the system is allocated to each type of servicing and executed every cycle. If all servicing cannot be completed within the allocated time, the remaining servicing is performed the next cycle.
Service USB port servicing Communications port servicing Description Non-scheduled servicing for FINS or Host Link commands received via a USB port or serial port from the CX-Programmer, PTs, or host computers (e.g., requests for program transfers, monitoring, forced-set/reset operations, or online editing) Non-scheduled servicing from the CPU Unit transmitted from a serial port (non-solicited communications) Servicing to execute network communications or serial communications for the SEND, RECV, CMND or PMCR instructions using communications ports 0 to 7 (internal logical ports) Servicing to execute background execution using communications ports 0 to 7 (internal logical ports) Read/write processing for built-in flash memory

Note

Peripheral USB port, serial port, and communications port servicing is allocated 8% of the previous cycle time by default (the default can be changed) for each service. If servicing is separated over many cycles, delaying completion of the servicing, set the same allocated time (same time for all services) rather than a percentage under execute time settings in the PLC Setup.

Note

(1) Immediate refreshing is possible only for the Built-in I/O Area. Use IORF(097) for I/O on CP/CPM1A-series Expansion Units and Expansion I/O Units. (2) Refreshing Range Bit Operands The ON/OFF status of the 16 I/O points allocated to the word containing the specified bit will be refreshed. Word Operands The ON/OFF status of the 16 I/O points allocated to the specified word will be refreshed. (3) Refresh Timing Input or source operands are read just before the instruction is executed. Output or destination (results) operands are written just after the instruction is executed. (4) Using instructions with the immediate refresh option, instruction execution time will be increased, increasing the overall cycle time. Be sure to confirm that this will not adversely affect system operation.

IORF(097) Refreshing

When IORF(097) (I/O REFRESH) is executed, the I/O bits in the specified range of words are refreshed. IORF(097) can be used for CP/CPM1A-series Expansion Units and CP/CPM1A-series Expansion I/O Units.

IORF St E Example IORF 2 5

Section 2-4

St: Starting word E: End word All the words from St to E, inclusive are refreshed.

Here, the four words from CIO 2 to CIO 5 are refreshed.

If high-speed response is required from input to output, execute IORF(097) before and after the relevant instructions. Note IORF(097) has a relatively long execution time which increases with the number of words being refreshed. Be sure to consider the affect of this time on the overall cycle time. Refer to the CP Series Programmable Controllers Programming Manual for instruction execution times.

Overview
The following processing is performed when CPU Unit power is turned OFF. Power OFF processing will be performed if the power supply voltage falls below the specified value while the CPU Unit is in RUN or MONITOR mode. 1,2,3... 1. The CPU Unit will stop. 2. Outputs from all Output Units will be turned OFF. Note (1) All outputs will turn OFF despite the status of the I/O Memory Hold Bit or I/O Memory Hold Bit at power ON settings in the PLC Setup. (2) AC Power 85% of the rated voltage: 85 V or less for a 100 to 240 V AC system (3) DC Power 90% of rated voltage: 20.4 V DC or less The following processing will be performed if power drops only momentarily (momentary power interruption). 1,2,3... 1. The system will continue to run unconditionally if the momentary power interruption lasts less than 10 ms for AC power or 2 ms for DC power, i.e., the time it takes the rated voltage at 85% or less to return to 85% or higher is less than 10 ms for AC power or the time it takes the rated voltage at 90% or less to return to 90% or higher is less than 2 ms for DC power.

Cycle Time Overview


The cycle time depends on the following conditions. Type and number of instructions in the user program (in all cyclic tasks that are executed during a cycle, and within interrupt tasks for which the execution conditions have been satisfied) Type and number of CP/CPM1A-series Expansion Units and Expansion I/ O Units Use of protocol macros and the largest communications message Fixed cycle time setting in the PLC Setup Use of USB and serial ports Fixed peripheral servicing time in the PLC Setup Note 1. The cycle time is not affected by the number of tasks that are used in the user program. The tasks that affect the cycle time are those cyclic tasks that are READY in the cycle. 2. When the mode is switched from MONITOR mode to RUN mode, the cycle time will be extended by 10 ms (this will not, however, take the cycle time over its limit). The cycle time is the total time required for the PLC to perform the five operations given in the following tables. Cycle time = (1) + (2) + (3) + (4) + (5)

Online Editing Cycle Time Extension


When online editing is executed to change the program from the CX-Programmer while the CPU Unit is operating in MONITOR mode, the CPU Unit will momentarily suspend operation while the program is being changed. The period of time that the cycle time is extended is determined by the following conditions. Number of steps changed Editing operations (insert/delete/overwrite) Types of instructions The cycle time extension for online editing is negligibly affected by the size of task programs. If the maximum program size for a task is 10 Ksteps, the online editing cycle time extension will be as follows:
CPU Unit CP1L CPU Unit Increase in cycle time for online editing Maximum: 16 ms, Normal: 12 ms (for a program size of 10 Ksteps)

When editing online, the cycle time will be extended by according to the editing that is performed. Be sure that the additional time will not adversely affect system operation. Note When there is one task, online editing is processed all in the cycle time following the cycle in which online editing is executed (written). When there are multiple tasks (cyclic tasks and interrupt tasks), online editing is separated, so that for n tasks, processing is executed over n to n 2 cycles max.

I/O Response Time


The I/O response time is the time it takes from when an input turns ON, the data is recognized by the CPU Unit, and the user program is executed, up to the time for the result to be output to an output terminal. The length of the I/O response time depends on the following conditions. Timing of Input Bit turning ON. Cycle time.

Minimum I/O Response Time

The I/O response time is shortest when data is retrieved immediately before I/ O refresh of the CPU Unit. The minimum I/O response time is calculated as follows: Minimum I/O response time = Input ON delay + Cycle time + Output ON delay Note The input and output ON delays depend on the type of terminals used on the CPU Unit or the model number of the Unit being used.

Interrupt Response Times


The interrupt response time for I/O interrupt tasks is the time taken from when a built-in input has turned ON (or OFF) until the I/O interrupt task has actually been executed. The length of the interrupt response time for I/O interrupt tasks depends on the following conditions.
Item Hardware response Software interrupt response Interrupt response time Rise time: 50 s Fall time: 50 s Minimum: 134 s Maximum: 234 s + Wait time (See note 1.) Counter interrupts ----Minimum: 236 s Maximum: 336 s + Wait time (See note1.)

Input Interrupt Tasks

Note

(1) The wait time occurs when there is competition with other interrupts. As a guideline, the wait time will be 6 to 169 s. (2) I/O interrupt tasks can be executed during execution of the user program (even while an instruction is being executed by stopping the execution of an instruction), I/O refresh, peripheral servicing, or overseeing. The interrupt response time is not affected by which of the above processing operations during which the interrupt inputs turns ON. I/O interrupts, however, are not executed during execution of other interrupt tasks even if the I/O interrupt conditions are satisfied. Instead, the I/O interrupts are

86

Computing the Cycle Time

executed in order of priority after the current interrupt task has completed execution and the software interrupt response time has elapsed. The interrupt response time of input interrupt tasks is calculated as follows: Interrupt response time = Input ON delay + Software interrupt response time

Input Input ON delay (Interrupt signal retrieval) Software interrupt response time Interrupt task execution Input interrupt task response time Cyclic task execution (main program) The time from completing the ladder program in the input interrupt task until returning to cyclic task execution is 60 s. Ladder program execution time Return time from input interrupt task Next interrupt signal can be accepted.

Scheduled Interrupt Tasks

The interrupt response time of scheduled interrupt tasks is the time taken from after the scheduled time specified by the MSKS(690) instruction has elapsed until the interrupt task has actually been executed. The length of the interrupt response time for scheduled interrupt tasks is 1 ms max. There is also an error of 80 s in the time to the first scheduled interrupt (0.5 ms min.).

Note Scheduled interrupt tasks can be executed during execution of the user program (even while an instruction is being executed by stopping the execution of an instruction), I/O refresh, peripheral servicing, or overseeing. The interrupt response time is not affected by which of the above processing operations during which the scheduled interrupt time occurs. Scheduled interrupts, however, are not executed during execution of other interrupt tasks even if the interrupt conditions are satisfied. Instead, the interrupts are executed in order of priority after the current interrupt task has completed execution and the software interrupt response time has elapsed.

Serial PLC Link Response Performance


The response times for CPU Units connected via a Serial PLC Link (master to slave or slave to master) can be calculated as shown below. If a PT is in the Serial PLC Link, however, the amount of communications data will not be fixed and the values will change. Maximum I/O response time (not including hardware delay) = Master cycle time + Communications cycle time + Slave cycle time + 4 ms Minimum I/O response time (not including hardware delay) = Slave communications time + 0.8 ms

Fail-safe Circuits

Section 3-1

3-1

Fail-safe Circuits
Always set up safety circuits outside of the PLC to prevent dangerous conditions in the event of errors in the CP1L CPU Unit or external power supply. In particular, be careful of the following points.

Supply Power to the CP1L CPU Unit before the Controlled System Managing CPU Unit Errors

If the PLC's power supply is turned ON after the controlled system's power supply, outputs in Units such as DC Output Units may malfunction momentarily. To prevent any malfunction, add an external circuit that prevents the power supply to the controlled system from going ON before the power supply to the PLC itself. When any of the following errors occurs, PLC operation (program execution) will stop and all outputs from Output Units will be turned OFF. A CPU error (watchdog timer error) or CPU on standby A fatal error (memory error, I/O bus error, duplicate number error, too many I/O points error, I/O setting error, program error, cycle time too long error, or FALS(007) error) (See note.) Always add any circuits necessary outside of the PLC to ensure the safety of the system in the event of an error that stops PLC operation.

Note

When a fatal error occurs, all outputs from Output Units will be turned OFF even if the IOM Hold Bit has been turned ON to protect the contents of I/O memory. (When the IOM Hold Bit is ON, the outputs will retain their previous status after the PLC has been switched from RUN/MONITOR mode to PROGRAM mode.) It is possible for an output to remain ON due to a malfunction in the internal circuitry of the Output Unit, such as a relay or transistor malfunction. Always add any circuits necessary outside of the PLC to ensure the safety of the system in the event that an output fails to go OFF. When the PLC controls an operation such as the clockwise and counterclockwise operation of a motor and if there is any possibility of an accident or mechanical damage due to faulty PLC operation, provide an external interlock such as the one shown below to prevent both the forward and reverse outputs from turning ON at the same time. Example
Interlock circuit CIO 100.00 MC2 MC1 Motor clockwise

Managing Output Malfunctions

Interlock Circuits

CP1H

CIO 100.01

MC1 MC2 Motor counterclockwise

This circuit prevents outputs MC1 and MC2 from both being ON at the same time even if both PLC outputs CIO 100.00 and CIO 100.01 are both ON, so the motor is protected even if the PLC is programmed improperly or malfunctions.

Installation Precautions
Installation and Wiring Precautions
Always consider the following factors when installing and wiring the PLC to improve the reliability of the system and make the most of the CP1L functions.

Ambient Conditions

Do not install the PLC in any of the following locations. Locations subject to ambient temperatures lower than 0C or higher than 55C. Locations subject to drastic temperature changes or condensation. Locations subject to ambient humidity lower than 10% or higher than 90%. Locations subject to corrosive or flammable gases. Locations subject to excessive dust, salt, or metal filings. Locations that would subject the PLC to direct shock or vibration. Locations exposed to direct sunlight. Locations that would subject the PLC to water, oil, or chemical reagents. Always enclose or protect the PLC sufficiently in the following locations. Locations subject to static electricity or other forms of noise. Locations subject to strong electromagnetic fields. Locations subject to possible exposure to radioactivity. Locations close to power lines.

Installation in Cabinets or Control Panels


Temperature Control

When the CP1L is being installed in a cabinet or control panel, always provide proper ambient conditions as well as access for operation and maintenance. The ambient temperature within the enclosure must be within the operating range of 0C to 55C. When necessary, take the following steps to maintain the proper temperature. Provide enough space for good air flow. Do not install the PLC above equipment that generates a large amount of heat, such as heaters, transformers, or high-capacity resistors. If the ambient temperature exceeds 55C, install a cooling fan or air conditioner.

Installation Precautions
Accessibility for Operation and Maintenance

Section 3-2
To ensure safe access for operation and maintenance, separate the PLC as much as possible from high-voltage equipment and moving machinery. The PLC will be easiest to install and operate if it is mounted at a height of about 1,000 to 1,600 mm.

!Caution Do not touch the power supply or the area around the I/O terminals while power is being supplied or immediately after power has been turned OFF. Doing so may result in burns. !Caution After the power supply has been turned OFF, wait until the PLC has sufficiently cooled before touching it. Improving Noise Resistance Do not mount the PLC in a control panel containing high-voltage equipment. Install the PLC at least 200 mm from power lines.

LG: Functional ground terminal

GR: Protective ground terminal Ground (100 or less)

Wire a separate circuit for the power supply circuit so that there is no voltage drop from the inrush current that flows when other equipment is turned ON. When several CP1L PLCs are being used, it is recommended to wire the PLCs on separate circuits to prevent a voltage drop from the inrush current or incorrect operation of the circuit breaker. Use twisted-pair power supply cables to prevent noise from the power supply lines. Adding a 1:1 isolating transformer reduces electrical noise even further. Consider the possibility of voltage drops and the allowable current, and always use thick power lines. Use round crimp terminals for AC power supply wiring.
6.2 mm max.

AC Power Supply Provide a power supply of 100 to 240 VAC. Use a power supply within the following voltage fluctuation range.
Power supply voltage 100 to 240 VAC Allowable voltage fluctuation range 85 to 264 VAC

Note

(1) Before connecting the power supply, make sure that the CPU Unit requires an AC power supply and not a DC power supply. The CPU Unit's internal circuitry will be damaged if AC power is mistakenly supplied to a CPU Unit that requires a DC power supply. (2) The power supply input terminals are at the top of the CPU Unit; the terminals at the bottom of the CPU Unit output 24-VDC power for external devices. The CPU Unit's internal circuitry will be damaged if AC power is mistakenly supplied to a CPU Unit's power supply output terminals.

!Caution Tighten the terminal block screws for the AC power supply to the torque of 0.5 Nm. Loose screws may result in fire or malfunction. Always ground the ground terminal to 100 or less to protect against electric shock and incorrect operation from electrical noise.

100

Wiring CP1L CPU Units

Section 3-4
If one phase of the power supply is grounded, connect the grounded phase to the L2/N terminal. The GR terminal is a ground terminal. To prevent electrical shock, use a dedicated ground line (2 mm2 min.) of 100 or less. The line ground terminal (LG) is a noise-filtered neutral terminal. If noise is a significant source of errors or if electrical shocks are a problem, connect the line ground terminal (LG) to the ground terminal (GR) and ground both with a ground resistance of 100 or less. To prevent electrical shock when short-circuiting between the LG and GR terminals, always use a ground of 100 or less. Do not connect ground lines to other devices or to the frame of a building. Doing so will reverse the effectiveness of the ground and instead have a bad influence.

Isolating Transformer

The PLC's internal noise control is sufficient for the general noise to which power supply lines are subjected. Ground noise can be further reduced by providing the power supply through a 1:1 isolating transformer. Leave the isolating transformer's secondary side ungrounded.

M3 self-rising terminal screws are used. Tighten the terminal screws to the torque of 0.5 Nm. To prevent noise, use a ground of 100 or less. DC Power Supply Provide a power supply of 20.4 to 26.4 VDC. The maximum current consumption is 20 W for CPU Units with 30 or 40 I/O points and 13 W for CPU Units with 14 or 20 I/O points. When the power supply is turned ON, the inrush current is approximately five times the normal current. The GR terminal is a ground terminal. To prevent electrical shock, use a dedicated ground line (2 mm2 min.) of 100 or less. Note (1) Never reverse the positive and negative leads when wiring the power supply terminals.

Wiring Built-in I/O


Double-check the specifications for the I/O Units. In particular, do not apply a voltage that exceeds the input voltage for Input Units or the maximum switching capacity for Output Units. Doing so may result in breakdown, damage, or fire. When the power supply has positive and negative terminals, always wire them correctly.

Wiring Precautions
Double-checking I/O Specifications

Electric Wires

AWG22 to AWG18 (0.32 to 0.82 mm2) power lines are recommended. Use cable with a maximum diameter of 1.61 mm including the insulation covering. The current capacity of electric wire depends on factors such as the ambient temperature and insulation thickness, as well as the gauge of the conductor. M3 self-rising screws are used for all screw terminals including terminal screws for crimp terminal power supply wiring. Use crimp terminals or solid wire for wiring. Do not connect bare stranded wires directly to terminals. Tighten the terminal block screws to the torque of 0.5 Nm. Use crimp terminals (M3) having the dimensions shown below.
6.2 mm max. 6.2 mm max.

Wiring

Wire the Units so that they can be easily replaced. Make sure that the I/O indicators are not covered by the wiring. Do not place the I/O wiring in the same conduits or ducts as high-voltage or power lines. Inductive noise can cause errors or damage. Tighten the terminal screws to the torque of 0.5 Nm. Note (1) Never apply a voltage that exceeds the input voltage for Input Units or the maximum switching capacity for Output Units. (2) When the power supply has positive and negative terminals, always wire them correctly. (3) When required by EC Low Voltage Directive, use reinforced insulation or double insulation on the DC power supply connected to DC-power-supply CPU Units and I/O. For the DC power supply connected to a DC-power-supply CPU Unit, use a power supply with a minimum output holding time of 10 ms. (4) Do not pull on the cables or bend the cables beyond their natural limit. Doing either of these may break the cables.

Precautions when Connecting a Two-wire DC Sensor 1,2,3...

When using a two-wire sensor with a 24-V DC input device, check that the following conditions have been met. Failure to meet these conditions may result in operating errors. 1. Relation between voltage when the PLC is ON and the sensor residual voltage: VON VCC VR 2. Relation between current when the PLC is ON and sensor control output (load current): IOUT (min) ION IOUT (max) ION = (VCC VR 1.5 [PLC internal residual voltage]*)/RIN When ION is smaller than IOUT (min), connect a bleeder resistor R. The bleeder resistor constant can be calculated as follows: R (VCC VR)/(IOUT (min) ION) Power W (VCC VR)2/R 4 [allowable margin]

3. Relation between current when the PLC is OFF and sensor leakage current: IOFF Ileak Connect a bleeder resistor if Ileak is greater than IOFF. Use the following equation to calculate the bleeder resistance constant. R RIN VOFF/(Ileak RIN VOFF) Power W (VCC VR)2/R 4 (allowable margin)

Vcc: Power voltage Vr: Sensor output residual current Von: PLC ON voltage Iout: Sensor control output (load current) Voff: PLC OFF voltage Ion: PLC ON current Ileak: Sensor leakage current Ioff: PLC OFF current R: Bleeder resistance Rin: PLC input impedance 4. Precautions on Sensor Inrush Current An incorrect input may occur due to sensor inrush current if a sensor is turned ON after the PLC has started up to the point where inputs are possible. Determine the time required for sensor operation to stabilize after the sensor is turned ON and take appropriate measures, such as inserting into the program a timer delay after turning ON the sensor. Program Example In this example, the sensor's power supply voltage is provided to input bit CIO 0.00 and a 100-ms timer delay (the time required for an OMRON Proximity Sensor to stabilize) is created in the program. After the Completion Flag for the timer turns ON, the sensor input on input bit CIO 0.01 will cause output bit CIO 100.00 to turn ON.

Output Wiring Precautions


Output Short-circuit Protection If a load connected to the output terminals is short-circuited, output components and the printed circuit boards may be damaged. To guard against this, incorporate a fuse in the external circuit. Use a fuse with a capacity of about twice the rated output. A TTL circuit cannot be connected directly to a transistor output because of the transistor's residual voltage. It is necessary to connect a pull-up resistor and a CMOS IC between the two. When connecting a transistor or triac output to a load having a high inrush current (such as an incandescent lamp), steps must be taken to avoid damage to the transistor or triac. Use either of the following methods to reduce the inrush current.

Take into account the power derating for the 1.6-k resistance. Connection Example 2

Overview of the Data Areas


CIO Area It is not necessary to input the CIO acronym when specifying an address in the CIO Area. The CIO Area is generally used for data exchanges, such as I/O refreshing with PLC Units. Words that are not allocated to Units may be used as work words and work bits in the program.
Bit 15 Word CIO 0 Input Area CIO 99 CIO 100 Output Area CIO 199 Not used (see note). CIO 1900 Reserved for system. CIO 1999 Not used (see note). CIO 3000 1:1 Link Area CIO 3063 Not used (see note). CIO 3100 Serial PLC Link Area CIO 3189 CIO 3800 Work Area CIO 6143 Not used (see note). 00

Note

The parts of the CIO Area that are labelled not used may be used in programming as work bits. In the future, however, unused CIO Area bits may be used when expanding functions. Always use Work Area bits first. I/O Area (Inputs: CIO 0 to CIO 99, Outputs: CIO 100 to CIO 199) These words are allocated to built-in I/O terminals of CP1L CPU Units and CP-series Expansion Units or Expansion I/O Units. Input words and output bits that arent allocated may be used in programming.

123

Overview of I/O Memory Area


1:1 Link Area

Section 4-1

These bits are used by the 1:1 Link Master and Slave. They are used for data links between CP1L CPU Units and CPM2@ CPU Units. Serial PLC Link Area These words are allocated for use for data links (Serial PLC Links) with other CP1L CPU Units or CP1H CPU Units. Addresses not used for Serial PLC Links can be used in programming. Internal I/O Area These words can be used in programming; they cannot be used for I/O exchange with external I/O terminals. Be sure to use the work words provided in the Work Area before using words in the Internal I/O Area or other unused words in the CIO Area. It is possible that these words will be assigned to new functions in future versions of the CPU Units. The parts of the CIO Area that are labelled Not used are functionally identical to the Internal I/O Area. Work Area (W) Words in the Work Area can be used in programming; they cannot be used for I/O exchange with external I/O terminals. Use this area for work words and bits before any words in the CIO Area.
Word 15 Bit

Note Holding Area (H)

These words should be used first in programming be assigned to new functions in future versions of CP1L CPU Units. Words in the Holding Area can be used in programming. These words retain their content when the PLC is turned ON or the operating mode is switched between PROGRAM mode and RUN or MONITOR mode.
Word 15 Bit

H511

Note H512 to H1535 are used as a Function Block Holding Area. These words can be used only for function block instances (internally allocated variable area). These words cannot be specified as instruction operands in the user program.

Temporary Relay Area (TR) Data Memory Area (D)

The TR Area contains bits that record the ON/OFF status of program branches. Refer to the CP1H/CP1L Programming Manual for details. The DM Area is a multi-purpose data area that is normally accessed only in word-units. These words retain their content when the PLC is turned ON or the operating mode is switched between PROGRAM mode and RUN or MONITOR mode.

Timer Area (T)

There are two parts to the Timer Area: the Timer Completion Flags and the timer Present Values (PVs). Up to 4,096 timers with timer numbers T0 to T4095 can be used. Timer Completion Flags These flags are read as individual bits. A Completion Flag is turned ON by the system when the corresponding timer times out (i.e., when the set time elapses). Timer PVs The PVs are read and written as words (16 bits). The PVs count up or down as the timer operates.

Counter Area (C)

There are two parts to the Counter Area: the Counter Completion Flags and the Counter Present Values (PVs). Up to 4,096 counters with counter numbers C0 to C4095 can be used. Counter Completion Flags These flags are read as individual bits. A Completion Flag is turned ON by the system when the corresponding counter counts out (i.e., when the set value is reached).

125

Overview of I/O Memory Area


Counter PVs

Section 4-1

The PVs are read and written as words (16 bits). The PVs count up or down as the counter operates. Condition Flags These flags include the Arithmetic Flags, such as the Error Flag and Equals Flag, which indicate the results of instruction execution as well as the Always ON and Always OFF Flags. The Condition Flags are specified with symbols rather than addresses. The Clock Pulses are turned ON and OFF by the CPU Units internal timer. These bits are specified with symbols rather than addresses. A Task Flag will be ON when the corresponding cyclic task is in executable (RUN) status and OFF when the cyclic task hasnt been executed (INI) or is in standby (WAIT) status. Index registers (IR0 to IR15) are used to store PLC memory addresses (i.e., absolute memory addresses in RAM) to indirectly address words in I/O memory. The Index Registers can be used separately in each task or they can be shared by all tasks. Data registers (DR0 to DR15) are used together with Index Registers. When a Data Register is input just before an Index Register, the content of the Data Register is added to the PLC memory address in the Index Register to offset that address. The Data Registers can be used separately in each task or they can be shared by all tasks.

Hot Start/Hot Stop Functions


Hot Start Turn ON the IOM Hold Bit to retain all data* in I/O memory when the CPU Unit is switched from PROGRAM mode to RUN/MONITOR mode to start program execution.
I/O memory PROGRAM Retain MONITOR or RUN CIO and other areas

Operating Mode Changes

Hot Stop When the IOM Hold Bit is ON, all data* in I/O memory will also be retained when the CPU Unit is switched from RUN or MONITOR mode to PROGRAM mode to stop program execution.
MONITOR or RUN Retain PROGRAM I/O memory CIO and other areas

Note *The following areas of I/O memory will be cleared during mode changes (between PROGRAM and RUN/MONITOR) unless the IOM Hold Bit is ON: the CIO Area (I/O Area, Data Link Area, CPU Bus Unit Area, Special I/O Unit Area, DeviceNet (CompoBus/D) Area, and Internal I/O Areas), Work Area, Timer Completion Flags, and Timer PVs.

Address Description A500.12 Specifies whether the I/O memory will be retained or not when the CPU Unit operating mode is changed (between PROGRAM and RUN/MONITOR) or when the power is cycled. OFF: I/O memory is cleared to 0 when the operating mode is changed. ON: I/O memory is retained when the operating mode is changed between PROGRAM and RUN or MONITOR.

When the IOM Hold Bit is ON, all outputs from Output Units will be maintained when program execution stops. When the program starts again, outputs will have the same status that they had before the program was stopped and instructions will be executed. (When the IOM Hold Bit is OFF, instructions will be executed after the outputs have been cleared.) PLC Power ON In order for all data* in I/O memory to be retained when the PLC is turned ON, the IOM Hold Bit must be ON and it must be protected in the PLC Setup using the IOM Hold Bit Status at Startup parameter.

I/O Area and I/O Allocations


Input Bits: CIO 0.00 to CIO 99.15 (100 words) Output Bits: CIO 100.00 to CIO 199.15 (100 words) The starting words for inputs and outputs are predetermined for CP1L CPU Unit. Input bits in CIO 0 and CIO 1 and output bits in CIO 100 and CIO 101 are automatically allocated to the built-in I/O on the CPU Unit. CP-series Expansion Units and CP-series Expansion I/O Units are automatically allocated input bits in words starting from CIO 2 and output bits in words starting from CIO 102. Allocated Words and Number of Expansion Units and Expansion I/O Units
CPU Unit Allocated words Input bits Output bits CIO 0 CIO 0 CIO 100 CIO 100 1 1 Number of Expansion Units and Expansion I/O Units connected

CPU Unit with 14 I/O points CPU Unit with 20 I/O points CPU Unit with 30 I/O points CPU Unit with 40 I/O points

CIO 0 and CIO 1 CIO 100 and CIO 101 3 CIO 0 and CIO 1 CIO 100 and CIO 101 3

For example, with a CPU Unit with 40 I/O points, the input bits in CIO 0 and CIO 1 and the outputs bits in CIO 100 and CIO 101 would be allocated to the built-in I/O of the CPU Unit. Input bits in CIO 2 and higher and outputs bits in CIO 102 and higher would be automatically allocated in order to any Expansion Units or Expansion I/O Units connected to the CPU Unit. When the power to the CPU Unit is turned ON, the CPU Unit checks for any Expansion Units and Expansion I/O Units connected to it and automatically allocates I/O bits. If the order in which the Units are connected is changed, the the bits used in the ladder program will no longer match the bits allocated to the actual Units. Always review the ladder program whenever changing the order in which Units are connected.

I/O Bits Allocated to Expansion I/O Units


There are Expansion I/O Units for expanding inputs, for expanding outputs, and for expanding both input and outputs. I/O bits starting from bit 00 in the next word after the word allocated to the previous Expansion Unit, Expansion I/O Unit, or CPU Unit are automatically allocated. This word is indicated as CIO m for input words and as CIO n for output words.

The 1:1 Link Area contains 1,024 bits (64 words) with addresses ranging from CIO 3000.00 to CIO 3063.15 (CIO 3000 to CIO 3063). These bits are used to create 1:1 links (i.e., shared data link areas) by connecting the RS-232C ports of two PLCs, including the CP1L, CPM1A, CPM2A, CPM2B, CPM2C, SRM1(-V2), CQM1H, and C200HX/HG/HE(-Z).

Serial PLC Link Area


The Serial PLC Link Area contains 1,440 bits (90 words) with addresses ranging from CIO 3100.00 to CIO 3189.15 (CIO 3100 to CIO 3189). Words in the Serial PLC Link Area can be used for data links with other PLCs. Serial PLC Links exchange data among CPU Units via the built-in RS-232C ports, with no need for special programming. The Serial PLC Link allocations are set automatically by means of the following PLC Setup in the Polling Unit.

Forcing Bit Status Serial PLC Link Area Initialization Bits in the Serial PLC Link Area can be force-set and force-reset. The contents of the Serial PLC Link Area will be cleared in the following cases: 1. When the operating mode is changed from PROGRAM mode to RUN/MONITOR mode or vice-versa and the IOM Hold Bit is OFF 2. When the power is cycled 3. When the Serial PLC Link Area is cleared from the CX-Programmer 4. When PLC operation is stopped when a fatal error other than an FALS(007) error occurs (The contents of the Serial PLC Link Area will be retained when FALS(007) is executed.)

4-5

Internal Work Area


The Internal Work Area contains 512 words with addresses ranging from W0 to W511. These words can be used in programming as work words. There are unused words in the CIO Area (CIO 3800 to CIO 6143) that can also be used in the program, but use any available words in the Work Area first because the unused words in the CIO Area may be allocated to other applications when functions are expanded.

Forcing Bit Status Work Area Initialization

Bits in the Work Area can be force-set and force-reset. The contents of the Work Area will be cleared in the following cases: 1. When the operating mode is changed from PROGRAM to RUN or MONITOR mode or vice-versa and the IOM Hold Bit is OFF 2. When the power is cycled 3. When the Work Area is cleared from the CX-Programmer.

4. When PLC operation is stopped when a fatal error other than an FALS(007) error occurs. (The contents of the Work Area will be retained when FALS(007) is executed.)

4-6

Holding Area (H)


The Holding Area contains 512 words with addresses ranging from H0 to H511 (bits H0.00 to H511.15). These words can be used in programming.

Holding Area Initialization

Data in the Holding Area is not cleared when the power is cycled or the PLCs operating mode is changed from PROGRAM mode to RUN or MONITOR mode or vice-versa. A Holding Area bit will be cleared if it is programmed between IL(002) and ILC(003) and the execution condition for IL(002) is OFF. To keep a bit ON even when the execution condition for IL(002) is OFF, turn ON the bit with the SET instruction just before IL(002).

Self-maintaining Bits Note

When a self-maintaining bit is programmed with a Holding Area bit, the selfmaintaining bit wont be cleared even when the power is reset. 1. If a Holding Area bit is not used for the self-maintaining bit, the bit will be turned OFF and the self-maintaining bit will be cleared when the power is reset. 2. If a Holding Area bit is used but not programmed as a self-maintaining bit as in the following diagram, the bit will be turned OFF by execution condition A when the power is reset.

H0.00

3. H512 to H1535 are used as a Function Block Holding Area. These words can be used only for function block instances (internally allocated variable area). These words cannot be specified as instruction operands in the user program. Precautions When a Holding Area bit is used in a KEEP(011) instruction, never use a normally closed condition for the reset input if the input device uses an AC power supply. When the power supply goes OFF or is temporarily interrupted, the input will go OFF before the PLCs internal power supply and the Holding Area bit will be reset.

Section 4-7

There are no restrictions in the order of using bit address or in the number of N.C. or N.O. conditions that can be programmed.

4-7

Auxiliary Area (A)


The Auxiliary Area contains 960 words with addresses ranging from A0 to A959). These words are preassigned as flags and control bits to monitor and control operation. A0 through A447 are read-only, but A448 through A959 can be read or written from the program or the CX-Programmer. Refer to Appendix C Auxiliary Area Allocations by Function and Appendix D Auxiliary Area Allocations by Address for Auxiliary Area functions.

Forcing Bit Status

Read/write bits in the Auxiliary Area cannot be force-set and force-reset continuously.

4-8

TR (Temporary Relay) Area


The TR Area contains 16 bits with addresses ranging from TR0 to TR15. These temporarily store the ON/OFF status of an instruction block for branching and are used only with mnemonics. TR bits are useful when there are several output branches and interlocks cannot be used. The TR bits can be used as many times as required and in any order required as long as the same TR bit is not used twice in the same instruction block. TR bits can be used only with the OUT and LD instructions. OUT instructions (OUT TR0 to OUT TR15) store the ON OFF status of a branch point and LD instructions recall the stored ON OFF status of the branch point.

Forcing Bit Status Examples

TR bits cannot be changed from the CX-Programmer. In this example, a TR bit is used when two outputs have been directly connected to a branch point.

Timers and Counters


Timer Area (T)
The 4,096 timer numbers (T0000 to T4095) are shared by the TIM, TIMX(550), TIMH(015), TIMHX(551), TMHH(540), TIMHHX(552), TTIM(087), TTIMX(555), TIMW(813), TIMWX(816), TMHW(815), and TIMHWX(817) instructions. Timer Completion Flags and present values (PVs) for these instructions are accessed with the timer numbers. The TIML(542), TIMLX(553), MTIM(543), and MTIMX(554) instructions do not use timer numbers. When a timer number is used in an operand that requires bit data, the timer number accesses the Completion Flag of the timer. When a timer number is used in an operand that requires word data, the timer number accesses the PV of the timer. Timer Completion Flags can be used as often as necessary as normally open and normally closed conditions and the values of timer PVs can be read as normal word data. The refresh method for timer PVs can be set from the CX-Programmer to either BCD or binary. Note It is not recommended to use the same timer number in two timer instructions because the timers will not operate correctly if they are timing simultaneously. (If two or more timer instructions use the same timer number, an error will be generated during the program check, but the timers will operate as long as the instructions are not executed in the same cycle.)

The PV and Completion Flag will be cleared when power is cycled. 2. If the IOM Hold Bit (A50012) is ON and the PLC Setups IOM Hold Bit Status at Startup setting is set to protect the IOM Hold Bit, the PV and Completion Flag will be retained when the PLCs power is cycled. 3. Since the TIML(542), TIMLX(553), MTIM(543), and MTIMX(554) instructions do not use timer numbers, they are reset under different conditions. Refer to the descriptions of these instructions for details. 4. The present value of TIM, TIMX(550), TIMH(015), TIMHX(551), TMHH(540), TMHHX(552), TIMW(813), TIMWX(816), TMHW(815) and TMHWX(817) timers programmed with timer numbers 0000 to 2047 will be updated even when jumped between JMP and JME instructions or when in a task that is on standby. The present value of timers programmed with timer numbers 2048 to 4095 will be held when jumped or when in a task that is on standby.

Forcing Bit Status

Timer Completion Flags can be force-set and force-reset. Timer PVs cannot be force-set or force-reset, although the PVs can be refreshed indirectly by force-setting/resetting the Completion Flag.

Restrictions

There are no restrictions in the order of using timer numbers or in the number of N.C. or N.O. conditions that can be programmed. Timer PVs can be read as word data and used in programming.

4-9-2

Counter Area (C)


The 4,096 counter numbers (C0000 to C4095) are shared by the CNT, CNTX(546), CNTR(012), CNTRX(548), CNTW(814), and CNTWX(818) instructions. Counter Completion Flags and present values (PVs) for these instructions are accessed with the counter numbers. When a counter number is used in an operand that requires bit data, the counter number accesses the Completion Flag of the counter. When a counter number is used in an operand that requires word data, the counter number accesses the PV of the counter.

140

Timers and Counters

Section 4-9
The refresh method for counter PVs can be set from the CX-Programmer to either BCD or binary. (Refer to the previous page). It is not recommended to use the same counter number in two counter instructions because the counters will not operate correctly if they are counting simultaneously. If two or more counter instructions use the same counter number, an error will be generated during the program check, but the counters will operate as long as the instructions are not executed in the same cycle. The following table shows when counter PVs and Completion Flags will be reset.

D32767

This data area is used for general data storage and manipulation and is accessible only by word. Data in the DM Area is retained when the PLCs power is cycled or the PLCs operating mode is changed from PROGRAM mode to RUN/MONITOR mode or vice-versa. Although bits in the DM Area cannot be accessed directly, the status of these bits can be accessed with the BIT TEST instructions, TST(350) and TSTN(351). Forcing Bit Status Indirect Addressing Bits in the DM Area cannot be force-set or force-reset. Words in the DM Area can be indirectly addressed in two ways: binary-mode and BCD-mode. Binary-mode Addressing (@D) When a @ character is input before a DM address, the content of that DM word is treated as binary and the instruction will operate on the DM word at that binary address. The entire DM Area (D0 to D32767) can be indirectly addressed with hexadecimal values 0000 to 7FFF.
@D100 0100 D256 Address actually used.

BCD-mode Addressing (*D) When a * character is input before a DM address, the content of that DM word is treated as BCD and the instruction will operate on the DM word at that BCD address. Only part of the DM Area (D0 to D09999) can be indirectly addressed with BCD values 0000 to 9999.

*D100 0100 D100 Address actually used.

Note

(1) If an address between D10000 and D31999 is specified as an operand for a CPU Unit with 14 or 20 I/O Points, an illegal area access error will occur.

4-11 Index Registers


The sixteen Index Registers (IR0 to IR15) are used for indirect addressing. Each Index Register can hold a single PLC memory address, which is the absolute memory address of a word in I/O memory. Use MOVR(560) to convert a regular data area address to its equivalent PLC memory address and write that value to the specified Index Register. (Use MOVRW(561) to set the PLC memory address of a timer/counter PV in an Index Register.) Note Refer to Appendix E Memory Map for more details on PLC memory addresses. Indirect Addressing When an Index Register is used as an operand with a , prefix, the instruction will operate on the word indicated by the PLC memory address in the Index Register, not the Index Register itself. Basically, the Index Registers are I/O memory pointers. All addresses in I/O memory (except Index Registers, Data Registers, and Condition Flags) can be specified seamlessly with PLC memory addresses. It isnt necessary to specify the data area. I/O memory addresses for IR, DR, and Condition Flags, however, cannot be held. In addition to basic indirect addressing, the PLC memory address in an Index Register can be offset with a constant or Data Register, auto-incremented, or auto-decremented. These functions can be used in loops to read or write data while incrementing or decrementing the address by one each time that the instruction is executed. With the offset and increment/decrement variations, the Index Registers can be set to base values with MOVR(560) or MOVRW(561) and then modified as pointers in each instruction.
I/O Memory Set to a base value with MOVR(560) or MOVRW(561). Pointer

Note It is possible to specify regions outside of I/O memory and generate an Illegal Access Error when indirectly addressing memory with Index Registers. Refer to Appendix E Memory Map for details on the limits of PLC memory addresses.

Index Registers

Section 4-11
The following table shows the variations available when indirectly addressing I/O memory with Index Registers. (IR@ represents an Index Register from IR0 to IR15.)

Variation Indirect addressing

Indirect addressing with constant offset

Indirect addressing with DR offset

Function The content of IR@ is treated as the PLC memory address of a bit or word. The constant prefix is added to the content of IR@ and the result is treated as the PLC memory address of a bit or word. The constant may be any integer from 2,048 to 2,047. The content of the Data Register is added to the content of IR@ and the result is treated as the PLC memory address of a bit or word. After referencing the content of IR@ as the PLC memory address of a bit or word, the content is incremented by 1 or 2.

Syntax ,IR@ LD ,IR0

Constant ,IR@ (Include a + or in the constant.)

LD +5,IR0

Example Loads the bit at the PLC memory address contained in IR0. Adds 5 to the contents of IR0 and loads the bit at that PLC memory address.

DR@,IR@

LD DR0,IR0

Adds the contents of DR0 to the contents of IR0 and loads the bit at that PLC memory address. Loads the bit at the PLC memory address contained in IR0 and then increments the content of IR0 by 2.

Indirect addressing with auto-increment

Indirect addressing The content of IR@ is decrewith auto-decrement mented by 1 or 2 and the result is treated as the PLC memory address of a bit or word.

Increment by 1: ,IR@+ Increment by 2: ,IR@++ Decrement by 1: ,IR@ Decrement by 2: , IR@

LD , IR0++

LD , IR0 Decrements the content of IR0 by 2 and then loads the bit at that PLC memory address.

Example

This example shows how to store the PLC memory address of a word (CIO 2) in an Index Register (IR0), use the Index Register in an instruction, and use the auto-increment variation. MOVR(560) MOV(021) MOV(021) 2 #0001 #0020 IR0 ,IR0 Stores the PLC memory address of CIO 2 in IR0. Writes #0001 to the PLC memory address contained in IR0.

+1,IR0 Reads the content of IR0, adds 1, and writes #0020 to that PLC memory address.

Index Registers

Section 4-11
Since some operands are treated as word data and others are treated as bit data, the meaning of the data in an Index Register will differ depending on the operand in which it is used. 1,2,3... 1. Word Operand: MOVR(560) 0000 MOV(021) D0 IR2 , IR2

When the operand is treated as a word, the contents of the Index Register are used as is as the PLC memory address of a word. In this example MOVR(560) sets the PLC memory address of CIO 2 in IR2 and the MOV(021) instruction copies the contents of D0 to CIO 2. 2. Bit Operand: MOVR(560) SET 000013 +5 , IR2 ,IR2

When the operand is treated as a bit, the leftmost 7 digits of the Index Register specify the word address and the rightmost digit specifies the bit number. In this example, MOVR(560) sets the PLC memory address of CIO 13 (0C00D hex) in IR2. The SET instruction adds +5 from bit 13 (D hex) to this PLC memory address, so it turns ON bit CIO 1.02. Index Register Initialization The Index Registers will be cleared in the following cases: 1. When the operating mode is changed from PROGRAM to RUN or MONITOR mode or vice-versa 2. When the power is cycled Setting Index Registers Always set the required value in an index register before using it. The contents of an index register will be unpredictable if it is not set in advance. The contents of an index register is also unpredictable after an interrupt task is started. When using index registers inside an interrupt task, use MOVR(560) (for anything but timer/counter PVs) or MOVRW(561) (for timer/counter PVs) to set the required value. Direct Addressing When an Index Register is used as an operand without a , prefix, the instruction will operate on the contents of the Index Register itself (a two-word or double value). Index Registers can be directly addressed only in the instructions shown in the following table. Use these instructions to operate on the Index Registers as pointers. The Index Registers cannot be directly addressed in any other instructions, although they can usually be used for indirect addressing.

The SRCH(181), MAX(182), and MIN(183) instructions can output the PLC memory address of the word with the desired value (search value, maximum, or minimum) to IR0. In this case, IR0 can be used in later instructions to access the contents of that word.

4-11-1 Using Index Registers


Processing of multiple (identical) instructions such as consecutive addresses for table data can be merged into one instruction by combining repetitive processing (e.g., FOR(513) and NEXT(514)instructions) with indirect addressing using Index Registers, thereby simplifying programming.
Instruction execution repeatedly incrementing IR0 by 1 Table data

Instruction

Indirect addressing IR0

,IR0

The Index operation uses the following procedure. 1. PLC memory addresses for the addresses in the Index Registers are stored using a MOVR instruction. 2. Operation is then executed by indirectly addressing Index Registers to the operand for Instruction A. 3. The addresses are moved using processing such as adding, subtracting, incrementing, or decrementing the Index Register (see note). 4. Steps 2 and 3 are processed repeatedly until the conditions are met. Note Adding, subtracting incrementing, or decrementing for the Index Register is performed using one of the following methods.

Each Type of Indirect Addressing for Index Registers: Auto-increment (,IR@+ or ,IR@++), auto-decrement (,-IR@ or ,--IR@), constant offset (constant ,IR@), and DR offset (DR@,IR@) for Index Registers Instructions for Direct Addressing of Index Registers: DOUBLE SIGNED BINARY ADD WITHOUT CARRY (+L), DOUBLE SIGNED BINARY SUBTRACT WITHOUT CARRY (-L), DOUBLE INCREMENT BINARY (++L), DOUBLE DECREMENT BINARY (--L)

Example:
Instruction A MOVR m IR0

Section 4-11

The PLC memory address of address m is stored in IR0.

Instruction A m+1 Instruction A ,IR0+ Instruction A m+n Repeated execution, e.g., loop for FOR or NEXT.

If, for example, instruction A above is a comparison instruction, table data could be read from start to the end of the table to compare all of the data with a specific value. In this way, blocks of user-defined processing can be freely created depending by applying Index Registers. Example Using Index Registers In the following example, TIM instructions for timer numbers 0 to 99 use set values in D100 to D199. This can be achieved by using one TIM instruction, using an index register for the timer number, using another index register for the Completion Flags, and repeatedly executing the TIM instruction to start the timers.
The PLC memory addresses for each T0's PV, Completion Flag, and W0.00 are set in Index Registers IR0, IR1, and IR2 using a MOVRW or MOVR instruction.

- The TIM instruction is executed for the timer number (timer PV) that IR0+ indirectly addresses. - The Timer Completion Flag that is indirectly addressed for IR1+ turns ON when the time elapses. When the ON status is received, bits in the work area that are indirectly addressed for IR2+ are turned ON. - The contents of IR0+, IR1+, and IR2+ are automatically incremented by one after accessing the values using indirect addressing. - D0 is incremented.

4-11-2 Precautions for Using Index Registers


Precautions Do not use a Index Register until a PLC memory address has been set in the register. The pointer operation will be unreliable if the registers are used without setting their values. The values in Index Registers are unpredictable at the start of an interrupt task. When an Index Register will be used in an interrupt task, always set a PLC memory address in the Index Register with MOVR(560) or MOVRW(561) before using the register in that task. Each Index Register task is processed independently, so they do not affect each other. For example, IR0 used in Task 1 and IR0 used in Task 2 are different. Consequently, each Index Register task has 16 Index Registers.

149

Index Registers
Limitations when Using Index Registers

Section 4-11

It is only possible to read the Index Register for the last task executed within the cycle from the CX-Programmer. If using Index Registers with the same number to perform multiple tasks, it is only possible with the CXProgrammer to read the Index Register value for the last task performed within the cycle from the multiple tasks, nor is it possible to write the Index Register value from the CX-Programmer. It is not possible to either read or write to the Index Registers using Host Link commands or FINS commands. A setting can be made from the CX-Programmer to share Index Registers between tasks. This setting will be enabled uniformly for all Index Registers and Data Registers. Sharing Index Registers The following setting can be made from the PLC Properties Dialog Box on the CX-Programmer to control sharing Index and Data Registers between tasks.

Monitoring Index Registers It is possible to monitor Index Registers as follows: To use the Programming Devices to monitor the final Index Register values for each task, or to monitor the Index Register values using Host Link commands or FINS commands, write a program to store Index Register values from each task to another area (e.g., DM area) at the end of each task, and to read Index Register values from the storage words (e.g., DM area) at the beginning of each task. The values stored for each task in other areas (e.g., DM area) can then be edited using the CX-Programmer, Host Link commands, or FINS commands.

4-12 Data Registers


The sixteen Data Registers (DR0 to DR15) are used to offset the PLC memory addresses in Index Registers when addressing words indirectly. The value in a Data Register can be added to the PLC memory address in an Index Register to specify the absolute memory address of a bit or word in I/O memory. Data Registers contain signed binary data, so the content of an Index Register can be offset to a lower or higher address.

151

Data Registers

Section 4-12
Normal instructions can be used to store data in Data Registers.

Forcing Bit Status

Bits in Data Registers cannot be force-set and force-reset.


Set to a base value with MOVR(560) or MOVRW(561). I/O Memory Pointer

Set with a regular instruction.

Examples

The following examples show how Data Registers are used to offset the PLC memory addresses in Index Registers. LD DR0 ,IR0 Adds the contents of DR0 to the contents of IR0 and loads the bit at that PLC memory address. Adds the contents of DR0 to the contents of IR1 and writes #0001 to that PLC memory address.

MOV(021) #0001 DR0 ,IR1

Range of Values

The contents of data registers are treated as signed binary data and thus have a range of 32,768 to 32,767.
Hexadecimal content Decimal equivalent 8000 to FFFF 32,768 to 1 0000 to 7FFF 0 to 32,767

Data Register Initialization

The Data Registers will be cleared in the following cases: 1. When the operating mode is changed from PROGRAM mode to RUN/MONITOR mode or vice-versa and the IOM Hold Bit is OFF 2. When the power is cycled and the IOM Hold Bit is OFF or not protected in the PLC Setup

IOM Hold Bit Operation

If the IOM Hold Bit (A500.12) is ON, the Data Registers wont be cleared when a FALS error occurs or the operating mode is changed from PROGRAM mode to RUN/MONITOR mode or vice-versa. If the IOM Hold BIt (A500.12) is ON and the PLC Setups IOM Hold Bit Status at Startup setting is set to protect the IOM Hold Bit, the Data Registers wont be cleared when the PLCs power supply is reset (ON OFF ON).

Precautions

Data Registers are normally local to each task. For example, DR0 used in task 1 is different from DR0 used in task 2. (A PLC Setup setting can be made from the CX-Programmer to share Data Registers between tasks.) The content of Data Registers cannot be accessed (read or written) from the CX-Programmer. Do not use Data Registers until a value has been set in the register. The registers operation will be unreliable if they are used without setting their values. The values in Data Registers are unpredictable at the start of an interrupt task. When a Data Register will be used in an interrupt task, always set a value in the Data Register before using the register in that task.

152

Task Flags

Section 4-13

4-13 Task Flags


Task Flags range from TK00 to TK31 and correspond to cyclic tasks 0 to 31. A Task Flag will be ON when the corresponding cyclic task is in executable (RUN) status and OFF when the cyclic task hasnt been executed (INI) or is in standby (WAIT) status. Note These flags indicate the status of cyclic tasks only, they do not reflect the status of interrupt tasks. Task Flag Initialization The Task Flags will be cleared in the following cases, regardless of the status of the IOM Hold Bit. 1. When the operating mode is changed from PROGRAM mode to RUN/MONITOR mode or vice-versa 2. When the power is cycled. Forcing Bit Status The Task Flags cannot be force-set and force-reset.

4-14 Condition Flags


These flags include the Arithmetic Flags, such as the Error Flag and Equals Flag, which indicate the results of instruction execution. The Condition Flags are specified with symbols, such as P_CY and P_ER, rather than addresses. The status of these flags reflects the results of instruction execution, but the flags are read-only; they cannot be written directly from instructions or the CX-Programmer. Note The CX-Programmer treats condition flags as global symbols beginning with P_. All Condition Flags are cleared when the program switches tasks, so the status of the ER and AER flags are maintained only in the task in which the error occurred. Forcing Bit Status Summary of the Condition Flags The Condition Flags cannot be force-set and force-reset. The following table summarizes the functions of the Condition Flags, although the functions of these flags will vary slightly from instruction to instruction. Refer to the description of the instruction for complete details on the operation of the Condition Flags for a particular instruction.
Function Turned ON when the operand data in an instruction is incorrect (an instruction processing error) to indicate that an instruction ended because of an error. When the PLC Setup is set to stop operation for an instruction error (Instruction Error Operation), program execution will be stopped and the Instruction Processing Error Flag (A29508) will be turned ON when the Error Flag is turned ON. Turned ON when an Illegal Access Error occurs. The Illegal Access Error indicates that an instruction attempted to access an area of memory that should not be accessed. When the PLC Setup is set to stop operation for an instruction error (Instruction Error Operation), program execution will be stopped and the Instruction Processing Error Flag (A429510) will be turned ON when the Access Error Flag is turned ON.

The Carry Flag is part of the result of some Data Shift and Symbol Math instructions. Turned ON when the first operand of a Comparison Instruction is greater than the second or a value exceeds a specified range. Turned ON when the two operands of a Comparison Instruction are equal the result of a calculation is 0. Turned ON when the first operand of a Comparison Instruction is less than the second or a value is below a specified range. Turned ON when the most significant bit (sign bit) of a result is ON. Turned ON when the result of calculation overflows the capacity of the result word(s). Turned ON when the result of calculation underflows the capacity of the result word(s). Turned ON when the first operand of a Comparison Instruction is greater than or equal to the second. Turned ON when the two operands of a Comparison Instruction are not equal. Turned ON when the first operand of a Comparison Instruction is less than or equal to the second. Always ON. (Always 1.) Always OFF. (Always 0.)

P_GT P_EQ P_LT P_N P_OF P_UF P_GE P_NE P_LE P_On P_Off

Using the Condition Flags

The Condition Flags are shared by all of the instructions, so their status may change often in a single cycle. Be sure to read the Condition Flags immediately after the execution of instruction, preferably in a branch from the same execution condition.
Instruction A Instruction LD Instruction A The result from instruction A is reflected in the Equals Flag. Condition Flag, e.g., = Instruction B AND Instruction B = Operand

Since the Condition Flags are shared by all of the instructions, program operation can be changed from its expected course by interruption of a single task. Be sure to consider the effects of interrupts when writing the program. Refer to SECTION 2 Programming of CS/CJ Series Programming Manual (W394) for more details. The Condition Flags are cleared when the program switches tasks, so the status of a Condition Flag cannot be passed to another task. For example the status of a flag in task 1 cannot be read in task 2.

154

Clock Pulses
Saving and Loading Condition Flag Status

Section 4-15

The CP1-H CPU Units support instructions to save and load the Condition Flag status (CCS(282) and CCL(283)). These can be used to access the status of the Condition Flags at other locations in a task or in a different task. The following example shows how the Equals Flag is used at a different location in the same task.
Task

CMP

CCS

Stores result of comparison in the Condition Flags. This will enable loading the results to use with Instruction B. Saves status of Condition Flags.

Instruction A

CCL

Instruction B

Loads the statuses of the Conditions Flags that were stored. The result of the comparison instruction in the Equals Flag can be used by Instruction B without interference from Instruction A.

High-speed Counters
Overview
A rotary encoder can be connected to a built-in input to produce a highspeed pulse input. The PRV(881) instruction can be used to measure the input pulse frequency (one input only). The high-speed counter PVs can be maintained or refreshed. The High-speed Counter Gate Bit can be turned ON/OFF from the ladder program to select whether the high-speed counter PVs will be maintained or refreshed. Any one of the following input signals can be selected as the counter input mode. Response Frequencies for 24 VDC Inputs to High-speed Counters 0 and 1: Differential phase inputs (4x): 50 kHz Pulse + direction inputs: 100 kHz Up/Down pulse inputs: 100 kHz Increment pulse inputs: 100 kHz The counting mode can be set to linear mode or circular (ring) mode. The counter reset method can be set to Z phase signal + software reset, software reset, Z phase signal + software reset (continue comparing), or software reset (continue comparing).

Pulse Input Functions


Purpose Receive incremental rotary encoder inputs to calculate length or position. Function used High-speed counter function Description Built-in input terminals can be used for high-speed counter inputs. The PV for the high-speed counters are stored in the Auxiliary Area. The counters can be operated in ring mode or linear mode. The high-speed counter can be started or stopped (PV held) from the Unit's program by turning ON/OFF the High-speed Counter Gate Bit when the desired condition is met.

Measure a workpiece's length or position. (Start counting when a certain condition is established or pause counting when a certain condition is established.)

High-speed Counter Gate Bit

Measure a workpiece's speed PRV(881) HIGHfrom its position data (frequency SPEED COUNTER measurement.) PV READ

The PRV(881) instruction can be used to measure the pulse frequency. Range with differential phase inputs: 0 to 50 kHz (Y models: 0 to 500 kHz) Range with all other input modes: 0 to 100 kHz (Y models: 0 to 1 MHz) PRV2(883) reads the pulse frequency and converts it to a rotational speed (r/min) or it converts the counter PV to a total number of rotations. Results are calculated by the number of pulses/ rotation.

Counter Input Modes


Differential Phase Mode (4x) The differential phase mode uses two phase signals (phase A and phase B) and increments/decrements the count according to the status of these two signals.

Phase-A Phase-B Count

Conditions for Incrementing/Decrementing the Count


Phase A H L L H L H H L Phase B Count value Increment Increment Increment Increment Decrement Decrement Decrement Decrement

Pulse + Direction Mode

The pulse + direction mode uses a direction signal input and pulse signal input. The count is incremented or decremented depending on the status (ON or OFF) of the direction signal.

Section 5-1

The count is incremented when the direction signal is ON and decremented when it is OFF. Only up-differentiated pulses (rising edges) can be counted. Up/Down Mode The up/down mode uses two signals, an increment pulse input and a decrement pulse input.

High-speed Counters

Section 5-1
Only up-differentiated pulses (rising edges) can be counted. Note The count of the high-speed counter can be monitored to see if it is currently being incremented or decremented. The count in the current cycle is compared with the count in the previous cycle to determine if it is being incremented or decremented. The results are reflected in the High-speed Counter Count Direction Flags (A274.10 for high-speed counter 0, A275.10 for highspeed Counter 1, A320.10 for high-speed counter 2, and A321.10 for highspeed counter 3.)

Counting Modes
Linear Mode Input pulses can be counted in the range between the lower limit and upper limit values. If the pulse count goes beyond the lower/upper limit, an underflow/overflow will occur and counting will stop. Lower and Upper Limits of the Range The following diagrams show the lower limit and upper limit values for increment mode and up/down mode.

Increment Mode
0 (000000 hex) 4294967295 (FFFFFFFF hex)

PV overflow

Up/Down Mode
2147483648 (80000000 hex) 0 (00000000 hex) +2147483647 (7FFFFFFF hex)

PV underflow

PV overflow

Circular (Ring) Mode

Input pulses are counted in a loop within the set range. The loop operates as follows: If the count is incremented from the max. ring count, the count will be reset to 0 automatically and incrementing will continue. If the count is decremented from 0, the count will be set to the max. ring count automatically and decrementing will continue. Consequently, underflows and overflows cannot occur when ring mode is used.
Count value 2321 Max. ring count

Max. Ring Count Use the PLC Setup to set the max. ring count (Circular Max. Count), which is the max. value of the input pulse counting range. The max. ring count can be set to any value between 00000001 and FFFFFFFF hex.

162

High-speed Counters
Restrictions There are no negative values in ring mode.

Section 5-1

If the max. ring count is set to 0 in the PLC Setup, the counter will operate with a max. ring count of FFFFFFFF hex.

Reset Methods
Phase-Z Signal + Software Reset The high-speed counter's PV is reset when the phase-Z signal (reset input) goes from OFF to ON while the corresponding High-speed Counter Reset Bit is ON. The CPU Unit recognizes the ON status of the High-speed Counter Reset Bit only at the beginning of the PLC cycle during the overseeing processes. Consequently, when the Reset Bit is turned ON in the ladder program, the phaseZ signal does not become effective until the next PLC cycle.
One cycle

Phase-Z Reset Bit PV not PV reset reset PV reset PV reset PV not reset PV reset

Software Reset

The high-speed counter's PV is reset when the corresponding High-speed Counter Reset Bit goes from OFF to ON. The CPU Unit recognizes the OFF-to-ON transition of the High-speed Counter Reset Bit only at the beginning of the PLC cycle during the overseeing processes. Reset processing is performed at the same time. The OFF-toON transition will not be recognized if the Reset Bit goes OFF again within the same cycle.
One cycle

Reset Bit PV reset PV not reset PV not reset PV not reset

Note The comparison operation can be set to stop or continue when a high-speed counter is reset. This enables applications where the comparison operation can be restarted from a counter PV of 0 when the counter is reset.

Ladder Program Example


This example is for a CPU Unit with 40 I/O Points. High-speed counter 0 is used. When the edge of the workpiece is detected, the counter PV is reset by a phase-Z pulse. The workpiece is passes inspection if the final count is between 30,000 and 30,300, otherwise the workpiece fails. If the workpiece passes, output CIO 100.00 is turned ON by an interrupt and the indicator PL1 is lit. If the workpiece fails, output CIO 100.01 is turned ON by an interrupt and indicator PL2 is lit. The interrupt program is interrupt task 10.

Additional Capabilities and Restrictions


The Phase-Z signal + Software reset method cannot be used when the high speed counters are operating in Differential Phase or Pulse + Direction Input Modes and the origin search function is enabled for the pulse output (in the PLC Setup). The Phase-Z signal + Software reset method can be used when the high speed counters are operating in Incrementing or Up/Down Input Modes. When a high-speed counter is being used (enabled in the PLC Setup), the input cannot be used as a general-purpose (normal) input, interrupt input, or quick-response input.

Restrictions on Highspeed Counter Inputs

173

High-speed Counters Starting Interrupt Tasks based on Comparison Conditions

Section 5-1

Data registered in advance in a comparison table can be compared with the actual counter PVs during operation. The specified interrupt tasks (registered in the table) will be started when the corresponding comparison condition is met. There are two comparison methods available: Target value comparison and range comparison. Use the CTBL(882) instruction to register the comparison table. Use either the CTBL(882) instruction or INI(880) instruction to start the comparison operation. Use the INI(880) instruction to stop the comparison operation. Target Value Comparison The specified interrupt task is executed when the high-speed counter PV matches a target value registered in the table. The comparison conditions (target values and counting directions) are registered in the comparison table along with the corresponding interrupt task number. The specified interrupt task will be executed when the highspeed counter PV matches the registered target value. Up to 48 target values (between 1 and 48) can be registered in the comparison table. A different interrupt task can be registered for each target value. The target value comparison is performed on all of the target values in the table, regardless of the order in which the target values are registered. If the PV is changed, the changed PV will be compared with the target values in the table, even if the PV is changed while the target value comparison operation is in progress.
High-speed counter PV
Target value 1

Comparison table Number of values = 4


Target value 1 (Incrementing) Interrupt task = 000 Target value 2 (Incrementing) Interrupt task = 001

Comparison is executed without regard to the order of the values in the table.

Restrictions A comparison condition (target value and count direction) cannot appear in the table more than once. An error will occur if a comparison condition is specified two or more times. Note When the count direction (incrementing/decrementing) changes at a PV that matches a target value, the next target value cannot be matched in that direction.

Range Comparison

The specified interrupt task is executed when the high-speed counter PV is within the range defined by the upper and lower limit values. The comparison conditions (upper and lower limits of the range) are registered in the comparison table along with the corresponding interrupt task number. The specified interrupt task will be executed once when the highspeed counter PV is in the range (Lower limit PV Upper limit). A total of 8 ranges (upper and lower limits) are registered in the comparison table. The ranges can overlap. A different interrupt task can be registered for each range. The counter PV is compared with the 8 ranges once each cycle. The interrupt task is executed just once when the comparison condition goes from unmet to met. Restrictions When more than one comparison condition is met in a cycle, the first interrupt task in the table will be executed in that cycle. The next interrupt task in the table will be executed in the next cycle.
High-speed counter PV
Upper limit 1 Lower limit 1

Comparison is executed without regard to the order of the ranges in the table.

Time
Interrupt task that is started. No. 255 No. 000 No. 000 No. 255

Note The range comparison table can be used without starting an interrupt task when the comparison condition is met. The range comparison function can be useful when you just want to know whether or not the high-speed counter PV is within a particular range. Use the Range Comparison Condition Met Flags to determine whether the high-speed counter PV is within a registered range.

Pausing Input Signal Counting (Gate Function)


If the High-speed Counter Gate Bit is turned ON, the corresponding highspeed counter will not count even if pulse inputs are received and the counter PV will be maintained at its current value. Bits A53108 to A53111 are the High-speed Counter Gate Bits for high-speed counters 0 to 3.

175

High-speed Counters

Section 5-1
When the High-speed Counter Gate Bit is turned OFF again, the high-speed counter will resume counting and the counter PV will be refreshed.

Restrictions

The Gate Bit will be disabled if the high-speed counter's reset method is set to Phase-Z signal + Software reset and the Reset Bit is ON (waiting for the phase-Z input to reset the counter PV.)

High-speed Counter Frequency Measurement


This function measures the frequency of the high-speed counter (input pulses.) The input pulse frequency can be read by executing the PRV(881) instruction. The measured frequency is output in 8-digit hexadecimal and expressed in Hz. The frequency measurement function can be used with high-speed counter 0 only. The frequency can be measured while a high-speed counter 0 comparison operation is in progress. Frequency measurement can be performed at the same time as functions such as the high-speed counter and pulse output without affecting the performance of those functions. Procedure 1,2,3... 1. High-speed Counter Enable/Disable Setting (Required) Select the Use high speed counter 0 Option in the PLC Setup. 2.

Pulse Outputs Pulse Frequency Conversion

Section 5-2

The pulse frequency input to a high-speed counter can be converted to a rotational speed (r/min) or the PV of the counter can be converted to the total number of rotations. The converted value is output as 8-digit hexadecimal. This function is supported only for high-speed counter 0. FrequencyRotational Speed Conversion The rotational speed in r/min is calculated from the pulse frequency input to a high-speed counter and the number of pulses per rotation.

Pulse Outputs
Overview
Fixed duty factor pulses can be output from the CPU Unit's built-in outputs to perform positioning or speed control with a servo driver that accepts pulse inputs. CW/CCW Pulse Outputs or Pulse + Direction Outputs The pulse output mode can be set to match the motor driver's pulse input specifications.

177

Pulse Outputs

Section 5-2
Automatic Direction Selection for Easy Positioning with Absolute Coordinates When operating in absolute coordinates (origin defined or PV changed with the INI(880) instruction), the CW/CCW direction will be selected automatically when the pulse output instruction is executed. (The CW/CCW direction is selected by determining whether the number of pulses specified in the instruction is greater than or less than the pulse output PV.) Triangular Control Triangular control (trapezoidal control without a constant-speed plateau) will be performed during positioning executed by an ACC(888) instruction (independent) or PLS2(887) instruction if the number of output pulses required for acceleration/deceleration exceeds the specified target pulse Output Amount. Change Target Position during Positioning (Multiple Start) When positioning was started with a PULSE OUTPUT (PLS2(887)) instruction and the positioning operation is still in progress, another PLS2(887) instruction can be executed to change the target position, target speed, acceleration rate, and deceleration rate. Switch from Speed Control to Positioning (Fixed Distance Feed Interrupt) A PLS2(887) instruction can be executed during a speed control (continuous mode) operation to change to positioning mode (independent mode). This feature allows a fixed distance feed interrupt (moving a specified amount) to be executed when specific conditions occur. Change Target Speed and Acceleration/Deceleration Rate during Acceleration or Deceleration When trapezoidal acceleration/deceleration is being executed according to a pulse output instruction (speed control or positioning), the target speed and acceleration/deceleration rate can be changed during acceleration or deceleration. Use Variable Duty Factor Pulse Outputs for Lighting, Power Control, Etc. The PULSE WITH VARIABLE DUTY FACTOR instruction (PWM(891)) can be used to output variable duty factor pulses from the CPU Unit's built-in outputs for applications such as lighting and power control.

Controlling Pulse Outputs


Purpose Function Description Built-in outputs can be used as pulse outputs 0 and 1. Target frequency ranges: 1 Hz to 100 kHz Duty factor: 50% The pulse output mode can be set to CW/CCW pulse control or Pulse plus direction control, but the same output mode must be used for pulse outputs 0 and 1. Note The pulse output PVs are stored in the Auxiliary Area. Perform simple posiPulse output functions tioning by outputting Single-phase pulse output without pulses to a motor driver acceleration/deceleration that accepts pulse-train Controlled by SPED. inputs. Single-phase pulse output with acceleration/deceleration (equal acceleration and deceleration rates for trapezoidal form) Controlled by ACC. Single-phase pulse output with trapezoidal acceleration/deceleration (Supports a startup frequency and different acceleration/ deceleration rates.) Controlled by PLS2(887).

Pulse Outputs
Purpose Function Perform origin search Origin functions (Origin search and and origin return opera- origin return) tions.

Section 5-2
Description Origin search and origin return operations can be executed through pulse outputs. Origin search: To start the origin search, set the PLC Setup to enable the origin search operation, set the various origin search parameters, and execute the ORIGIN SEARCH instruction (ORG(889)). The Unit will determine the location of the origin based on the Origin Proximity Input Signal and Origin Input Signal. The coordinates of the pulse output's PV will automatically be set as the absolute coordinates. Origin return: To return to the predetermined origin, set the various origin return parameters and execute the ORIGIN SEARCH instruction (ORG(889)). When a positioning operation started with the PULSE OUTPUT (PLS2(887)) instruction is in progress, another PLS2(887) instruction can be executed to change the target position, target speed, acceleration rate, and deceleration rate. When a speed control operation started with the ACC(888) instruction (continuous) is in progress, another ACC(888) instruction (continuous) can be executed to change the acceleration rate or deceleration rate.

Change the target position during positioning. (For example, perform an emergency avoid operation with the Multiple Start feature.) Change speed in steps (polyline approximation) during speed control.

Positioning with the PLS2(887) instruction

Use the ACC(888) instruction (continuous) to change the acceleration rate or deceleration rate.

Change speed in steps Use the ACC(888) instruction (inde- When a positioning operation started with the ACC(888) pendent) or PLS2(887) to change the instruction (independent) or PLS2(887) instruction is in (polyline approximation) during positioning. acceleration rate or deceleration rate. progress, another ACC(888) (independent) or PLS2(887) instruction can be executed to change the acceleration rate or deceleration rate. Perform fixed distance feed interrupt. Execute positioning with the PLS2(887) instruction during an operation started with SPED(885) (continuous) or ACC(888) (continuous). The positioning direction is selected automatically in the absolute coordinate system. When a speed control operation started with the SPED(885) instruction (continuous) or ACC(888) instruction (continuous) is in progress, the PLS2(887) instruction can be executed to switch to positioning, output a fixed number of pulses, and stop. When operating in absolute coordinates (with the origin determined or INI(880) instruction executed to change the PV), the CW or CCW direction is selected automatically based on the relationship between the pulse output PV and the pulse Output Amount specified when the pulse output instruction is executed. When a positioning operation started with the ACC(888) instruction (independent) or PLS2(887) instruction is in progress, triangular control (trapezoidal control without the constant-speed plateau) will be performed if the number of output pulses required for acceleration/deceleration exceeds the specified target pulse Output Amount. (The number of pulses required for acceleration/deceleration equals the time required to reach the target frequency x the target frequency.)

After determining the origin, perform positioning simply in absolute coordinates without regard to the direction of the current position or target position. Perform triangular control.

Relative Pulse Outputs and Absolute Pulse Outputs


Selecting Relative or Absolute Coordinates The pulse output PV's coordinate system (absolute or relative) is selected automatically, as follows: When the origin is undetermined, the system operates in relative coordinates. When the origin has been determined, the system operates in absolute coordinates.

Movement Direction when Using Absolute Pulse Specification


When operating with the absolute pulse specification, the movement direction is selected automatically based on the relationship between the pulse output PV when the instruction is executed and the specified target position. The direction (CW/CCW) specified in an ACC(888) or SPED(885) instruction is not effective.

Using CW/CCW Limit Inputs for Pulse Output Functions Other than Origin Searches
Pulse outputs will stop when either the CW or CCW limit input signals turns ON. It is also possible to select whether or not the established origin will be cleared when a CW or CCW limit input signal turns ON for an origin search or other pulse output function.

S-curve Acceleration/Deceleration
S-curve acceleration/deceleration can be used for pulse output instructions involving acceleration/deceleration. When there is leeway in the maximum allowable speed, S-curve accelerations/decelerations will help control shock and vibration by reducing the initial acceleration rate in comparison with linear acceleration/deceleration. Note The setting for S-curve acceleration/deceleration applies to all pulse outputs.

196

Pulse Outputs
Output Pattern

Section 5-2
The output pattern for S-curve acceleration/deceleration is shown below. Example for PLS2(887)

Time

The same type of S-curve acceleration/deceleration can be used for ACC(888) as well. Note The curve for S-curve acceleration/deceleration is formed by applying a cubic equation to the straight line of the set acceleration/deceleration rates (a cubic polynomial approximation). The curves parameters cannot be changed. The maximum acceleration will be 1.5 times that of trapezoidal acceleration/ deceleration for the same acceleration/deceleration rate.

Pulse Outputs
Procedure Make the following settings in the PLC Setup. Pulse Output 0 to 3
Speed Curve Trapezium S-shaped

Section 5-2

When a pulse output is executed with acceleration/deceleration, this setting determines whether the acceleration/deceleration rate is linear (trapezium) or S-shaped.

Restrictions

The following restrictions apply when using S-curve acceleration/deceleration. Starting Frequency The starting frequency must be 100 Hz or greater. If the starting frequency is set to less than 100 Hz, it will automatically be increased to 100 Hz if S-curve acceleration/deceleration is set.

Precautions when using the Pulse Output Function

The CP1L CPU Units pulse output frequency is determined by dividing the source clock frequency by an integer ratio. (The source clock frequency for ports 0 and 1 is 20 MHz and the frequency for ports 2 and 3 is 16.4 MHz.) Consequently, there may be a slight difference between the set frequency and the actual frequency, and that difference increases as the frequency increases. The actual frequency can be calculated from the following equations.

Origin Search and Origin Return Functions


The CP1L CPU Units have two functions that can be used to determine the machine origin for positioning. 1,2,3... 1. Origin Search The ORG instruction outputs pulses to turn the motor according to the pattern specified in the origin search parameters. As the motor turns, the origin search function determines the machine origin from the following 3 kinds of position input signals. Origin input signal Origin proximity input signal CW limit input signal and CCW limit input signal

Pulse Outputs

Section 5-2
2. Changing the Pulse Output PV When you want to set the current position as the origin, execute INI(880) to reset the pulse output PV to 0. The origin location can be determined after using either method. The CP1L CPU Units are also equipped with the origin return function, which can be executed to return the system to the origin after the origin location has been determined by one of the methods above. Origin Return If the motor is stopped, ORG(889) can be executed to perform an origin return operation that moves the motor back to the origin position. The origin position must be determined in advance by performing an origin search or changing the pulse output PV. Note The motor can be moved even if the origin position has not been determined, but positioning operations will be limited as follows: Origin return: Cannot be used. Positioning with absolute pulse specification: Cannot be used. Positioning with relative pulse specification: Outputs the specified number of pulses after setting the current position to 0.

5-2-5-1

Origin Search
When ORG(889) executes an origin search, it outputs pulses to actually move the motor and determines the origin position using the input signals that indicate the origin proximity and origin positions. The input signals that indicate the origin position can be received from the servomotor's built-in phase-Z signal or external sensors such as photoelectric sensors, proximity sensors, or limit switches. Several origin search patterns can be selected. In the following example, the motor is started at a specified speed, accelerated to the origin search high speed, and run at that speed until the origin proximity position is detected. After the Origin Proximity Input is detected, the motor is decelerated to the origin search low speed and run at that speed until the origin position is detected. The motor is stopped at the origin position.

Explanation of the Origin Search Parameters


Operating Mode The operating mode parameter specifies the kind of I/O signals that are used in the origin search. The 3 operating modes indicate whether the Error Counter Reset Output and Positioning Completed Input are used.
I/O signal Error Counter Reset Output Not used. The origin search operation ends after the origin is detected. Goes ON for 20 to 30 ms when the origin is detected. Positioning Completed Input Not used. Remarks Operation when the origin is detected during deceleration from the origin search's high speed The Origin Input Signal will be detected during deceleration. An Origin Input Signal Error (error code 0202) will occur and the motor will decelerate to a stop. The Origin Input Signal will not be detected during deceleration. When the Origin Input Signal is detected after the motor has reached the proximity speed for origin search, the motor will be stopped and the origin search operation will end.

Operating mode

Origin Input Signal The origin position is determined when the Origin Input Signal goes from OFF to ON.

1 2

After the origin is detected, the origin search will not be end until the Positioning Completed Input is received from the driver.

The following table shows the proper operating mode settings for different drivers and applications.
Driver Stepping motor driver (See note.) Servo driver Remarks 0 Operating mode

Use this mode when you want to 1 reduce the processing time, even at the expense of positioning accuracy. (The Servo Driver's positioning complete signal is not used.) Use this mode when you want high positioning accuracy. (The Servo Driver's positioning complete signal is used.) 2

Note There are stepping motor drivers that are equipped with a positioning completed signal like a Servo driver. Operating modes 1 and 2 can be used with these stepping motor drivers.

Remarks: Operations Detecting the Origin During Deceleration from High Speed Operating Mode 0 (without Error Counter Reset Output, without Positioning Completed Input) Connect the sensor's open collector output signal to the Origin Input Signal. The Origin Input Signal's response time is 0.1 ms when set as a NO contact. When the Origin Proximity Input Signal is received, the motor will begin decelerating from the origin search high speed to the origin search proximity speed. In this operating mode, the Origin Input Signal will be detected if it is received during this deceleration and an Origin Input Signal Error (error code 0202) will be generated. In this case, the motor will decelerate to a stop.

Origin Search Speed Note

These are the motor speed settings used in the origin search. The origin search will not be performed in these cases: Origin search high speed Origin search proximity speed Origin search proximity speed Origin search initial speed Origin Search/Return Initial Speed Sets the motor's starting speed when the origin search is executed. Specify the speed in the number of pulses per second (pps). Origin Search High Speed Sets the motor's target speed when the origin search is executed. Specify the speed in the number of pulses per second (pps). Origin Search Proximity Speed Sets the motor's speed after the Origin Proximity Input Signal is detected. Specify the speed in the number of pulses per second (pps). Origin Search Acceleration Rate Sets the motor's acceleration rate when the origin search is executed. Specify the amount to increase the speed (Hz) per 4-ms interval. Origin Search Deceleration Rate Sets the motor's acceleration rate when the origin search function is decelerating. Specify the amount to decrease the speed (Hz) per 4-ms interval.

Origin Compensation

After the origin has been determined, the origin compensation can be set to compensate for a shift in the Proximity Sensor's ON position, motor replacement, or other change.

Pulse Outputs

Section 5-2

Positioning Monitor Time

When the operating mode is set to mode 2, this setting specifies how long to wait (in ms) for the Positioning Completed Signal after the positioning operation has been completed, i.e., the pulse output has been completed. A Positioning Timeout Error (error code 0300) will be generated if the motor driver's Positioning Completed Signal does not come ON within the specified time. Setting range: 0000 to 270F hex (0 to 9,999 ms) The actual monitoring time will be the Positioning Monitor Time rounded up to the nearest 10-ms unit + 10 ms max. If the Positioning Monitor Time is set to 0, the function will be disabled and the Unit will continue waiting for the Positioning Completed Signal to come ON. (A Positioning Timeout Error will not be generated.)

An origin search will not be started unless the origin search proximity speed is less than the origin search high speed and unless the origin search/return initial speed is less than the origin search proximity speed.

Origin Search Error Processing


The CP1L CPU Unit's pulse output function performs a basic error check before starting to output pulses (when the instruction is executed) and will not output pulses if the settings are incorrect. There are other errors that can occur with the origin search function during pulse output, which may stop the pulse output. If an error occurs that stops pulse output, the pulse output's Output Stopped Error Flag will be turned ON and the Pulse Output Stop Error Code will be written to Error Code word. Use these flags and error codes to identify the cause of the error. The Pulse Output Stop Errors will not affect the CPU Unit's operating status. (The Pulse Output Stop Errors do not cause a fatal or non-fatal error in the CPU Unit.)

Remarks

Absolute pulses can be specified when the origin position has been determined. If a target frequency that cannot be reached has been set, the target frequency will be reduced automatically, i.e., triangular control will be performed. In some cases where the acceleration rate is substantially greater than the deceleration rate, the operation won't be true triangular control. The motor will be operated at a constant speed for a short time between the acceleration and deceleration.

Remarks 1,2,3...

Section 5-2

1. PLS22(887) used a relative pulse setting. This enables operation even if the origin is not defined. The present position in A276 (lower 4 digits) and A277 (upper 4 digits) is set to 0 before pulse output and then contains the specified number of pulses. 2. ACC(888) can be used instead of SPED(885) for the jog operation. If ACC(888) is used, acceleration/deceleration can be included in the jog operation.

Inverter Positioning
Features
Simple, accurate high-speed positioning can be achieved using an inverter. This enables a far more economical positioning system than with a servomotor.

Feedback Control with Error Counter

A position error counter built into the CP1L CPU Unit enables high-precision positioning with an Inverter using feedback control. The PULSE OUTPUT instruction is used in the ladder program in the CP1L CPU Unit to output internal pulses to a built-in error counter. The error counter calculates the position error from the number of input internal pulses and the number of feedback pulses from the rotary encoder, and sends speed commands to the inverter so that the position error goes to zero.

Reducing Positioning Time

With traditional inverter positioning, positioning patterns are created in which set positions are detected to trigger changes in the speed. Pulses are read from the encoder and compared to set values during positioning to enable determining when a position requiring a speed change has been reached. This results in positioning errors at speed-change points when stopping at high speed, reducing stopping precision. To ensure high-precision positioning, sufficient deceleration was required before stopping, but this increases the positioning time. With the CP1Ls inverter positioning function, feedback pulses are used so that the prevent position is always known, increasing positioning accuracy. And because preset positioning patterns are used for deceleration and stopping, positioning time is reduced.

260

Inverter Positioning

Section 5-3

The PLC counts the feedback pulses from the encoder using a high-speed counter. When a deceleration point is reached, the speed is changed to control the stop position. If the precision of the stop position must be increased, the stop position must also be detected to control positioning.

The need for low-speed operation near the stopping position increases the positioning time. PLC

Note (1) The CP1Ls inverter positioning function is designed to increase positioning speed and stopping precision by reading position information and using a feedback loop with an error counter to switch speeds. It does not increase the response, stopping precision, or speed change rate of the inverter and motor. These are characteristics of the inverter and motor. Refer to user documentation on your inverter and motor for details. (2) The corresponding pulse output number (0 or 1) cannot be used for the PULSE WITH VARIABLE DUTY FACTOR instruction (PWM) if inverter positioning 0 or 1 is used. The high-speed counter of the same number (0 or 1) is used to input the feedback pulse.

1. To use inverter positioning, the motor and encoder specifications, feedback gain, and other parameters must be set in the PLC Setup. The highspeed counter and inverter must also be set. 2. Pulse output instructions, such as PLS2 or PULS with SPED, are used to execute positioning. Although normally the pulse output instructions are used to output pulses from CP1L output contacts, when inverter positioning 0 or inverter positioning 1 is enabled in the PLC Setup, the internal position error counter (called simply the error counter) is enabled and the pulse output instruction will output internal pulses to the error counter. Both error counters 0 and 1 can be used at the same time. 3. For the number of pulses (i.e., the amount of movement) set in the pulse output instruction, use the number of feedback pulses from the encoder. For the pulse frequency set in the pulse output instruction, use the motor power supply frequency converted to the feedback pulse frequency from the encoder. (Refer to 5-3-7 Determining the Internal Pulse Output Frequency for details.) 4. Specify an inverter positioning port for the pulse output instruction (port 0: 0020, port 1: 0021). The internal pulses will be output to the error counter for the specified port. 5. The number of pulses remaining in the error counter is converted to a power supply frequency command for the inverter according to a value set in the PLC Setup and output to a word in the Auxiliary Area in increments of 0.01 Hz. 6. The frequency command value output to the Auxiliary Area is output to the inverter from the ladder program according to the inverter command method (i.e., RS-485 communications or analog output). (Refer to 5-3-9 Automatic Calculation of Inverter Frequency Command Value for details.)

264

Inverter Positioning

Section 5-3
7. When a speed command is sent to the inverter, the motor will turn at the command speed and feedback pulses (i.e., the amount of movement) from the encoder will be returned to a high-speed counter of the CP1L. The CP1L will continue to send a speed command to the inverter until the error counter (i.e., the position error) goes to zero, i.e., until positioning has been completed. 8. When the error counter goes to zero, the speed command to the inverter will also go to zero. Even after the completion of internal pulse output (i.e., position command) from the pulse output instruction, the CP1L will maintain the error counter so that is remains at zero. 9. The status of the error counter (such as the command direction and in-position status) will be stored in the Auxiliary Area. This status can be read from the user program to enable controlling output of commands to the inverter. For example, if a change in the load causes the motor shaft to turn, feedback pulses from the encoder will enter the error counter, the value in the error counter will be reduced, and the Reverse Command Flag in the Auxiliary Area will turn ON. By writing the ladder program to output a reverse operation command to the inverter for the Reverse Command Flag, a command in the opposite direction of motor shaft movement will be output from the CP1L to the inverter, causing the motor to return to its original position. This compensating operation to continuously maintain the current stop position is called a servo lock.

Other Functions
Servo Locks with Vector Control Inverters The servo lock on an inverter can be used to stop positioning. By using the inverters servo lock, the inverter positioning function and the output command to the inverter can be stopped from the user program without using feedback control even if the error counter value is not zero. This enables servo locks when using an inverter with vector control. If the motor shaft is moved manually for error stops or when the inverter is stopped, feedback pulses will accumulate in the error counter. This can be very dangerous because it may cause the motor to suddenly return to the original position at high speed when operation is started again. To prevent such problems, an error counter error output can be produced when more than a set number of pulses accumulated in the error counter when positioning operations are stopped.

Low-speed Operation Using Minimum Output Setting

An inductive motor driven with an inverter is different from a servomotor in that the torque at low speeds is so low that it may not be possible to turn the motor shaft at the minimum frequency. The CP1L provide a minimum output setting the ensure a minimum output to enable positioning at low speeds even when there are extremely few pulses in the error counter. The amount of movement (i.e., amount of rotation) is input to the high-speed counter as feedback pulses. During inverter positioning, the present value of the high-speed counter can be used as an absolute position.

Absolute Positioning

Note

The absolute position will change if the present value of the high-speed counter is changed or the high-speed counter is reset.

PLS2(887) outputs a specified number of pulses to the specified port. Pulse output starts at a specified startup frequency, accelerates to the target frequency at a specified acceleration rate, decelerates at the specified deceleration rate, and stops at approximately the same frequency as the startup frequency. Only independent mode positioning is supported. PLS2(887) can also be executed during pulse output to change the number of output pulses, target frequency, acceleration rate, or deceleration rate. PLS2(887) can thus be used for sloped speed changes with different acceleration and deceleration rates, target position changes, target and speed changes, or direction changes.

Determining the Internal Pulse Output Frequency


Use the following formula to calculate the internal pulse frequency (Hz) to output from the pulse output instruction (e.g., PLS2) based on the power supply frequency (Hz) to be output from the inverter to the motor.

Frequency of internal pulse output (Hz)

Encoder resolution (pulses/revolution)

High-speed counter multiplier

Gear ratio between motor shaft and encoder shaft (See note 2.)

Power supply frequency to motor for one revolution per second (See note 1.)

Power supply frequency to motor (Hz)

Note

(1) Calculate the power supply frequency for one revolution per second from the motor specifications. For example, with a 1,800-r/min (60-Hz) motor (30 r/s), the power supply frequency for one revolution per second would be calculated as follows: 60 [Hz] 30 [r/s] = 2 [Hz].

Automatic Calculation of Inverter Frequency Command Value


Set the Power Supply Frequency for One Motor Revolution per Second, Number of Encoder Pulses for One Motor Revolution, and Error Counter Cycle in the PLC Setup to automatically calculate the inverter frequency command value and store it in A23 for inverter positioning 0 and A33 for inverter positioning 1. Note The inverter frequency command values are stored in A23 and A33 in increments of 0.01 Hz. Divide the value in A23 or A33 by 100 to obtain the value in hertz.

The values stored in A23 and A33 can be used in converting the output value to the frequency command value for the inverter. This value can be output to the inverter from the program using serial communications or an Analog Output Unit. Note The following formula is used inside the PLC to automatically calculate the inverter frequency command value from the output value (i.e., the error counter present value multiplied by the gain). (The output value is stored in A20 and A21 for inverter positioning 0 and in A30 and A31 for inverter positioning 1.)

Note

Present Values of High-speed Counter and Pulse Outputs The present value of the high-speed counter when inverter positioning is used is stored in the same memory location as for normal high-speed counter application. This value can be used as the present value of feedback pulses from the encoder, i.e., as the absolute position of inverter positioning. Target value and range comparisons for high-speed counters are also valid. The present value of the pulse output (A276/A277 or A278/A279), i.e., the pulse output value to the error counter, is an absolute position if an absolute coordinate system is specified and is a relative position if a relative coordinate system is specified.

Referencing the Automatically Calculated Inverter Frequency Command Value

If the following settings are made in the PLC Setup, the inverter frequency command value will be calculated automatically and set in A23 in the Auxiliary Area. These settings are on the Inverter Positioning 0 Tab Page in the PLC Setup. Power Supply Frequency for One Motor Revolution per Second (0.1-Hz increments) Number of Encoder Pulses for One Motor Revolution Error Counter Cycle (x 4 ms) The inverter frequency command value in A23 is accessed and converted to an analog output signal. The CP1W/CPM1A-DA041 has a resolution of 6,000, so the conversion to an analog signal is performed as follows: 6,000 60 Hz (inverters maximum output frequency) 100 = 1 The conditions are as follows:
P_On TIM 0
Always ON Flag Time for data for Analog Output Unit to become valid.

#0003 A26.00 *U A023


To convert to the analog output value, the inverter frequency command value is multiplied by 100 (analog resolution of 6,000 divided by inverter's maximum frequency of 60) and stored in D1010 and D1011. The frequency command value is divided by 100 to convert to Hz and stored in D1020.

5-3-13 Supplemental Information


Restrictions Inverter positioning 0 and inverter positioning 1 each use one high-speed counter and one serial port (except that a serial port is not used when an Analog Output Unit is used). (High-speed counter 0 is allocated to inverter positioning 0 and high-speed counter 1 is allocated to inverter positioning 1.) When inverter positioning 0 or 1 is used, the corresponding pulse output (0 or 1) and the corresponding PWM command (pulse output 0 or 1) cannot be used. Precautions Determine the in-position range based on the mechanical system. Use a smaller range if positioning precision is required. If the range is too small, however, time may be required when stopping. If stopping quickly is more important than precision, increase the in-position range. The error counter cycle also affects the conversion between the output value and the inverter frequency command value. Refer to 5-3-9 Automatic Calculation of Inverter Frequency Command Value for details. If inverter positioning does not end normally, adjust the following settings. Reduce the acceleration/deceleration rates. Lower rates will stabilize operation at the end of acceleration/deceleration. Reduce the target frequency. Change the error counter cycle. Increasing the error counter cycle improve stopping precision, but it may also cause unstable speeds during operation. Adjust the gain. Increasing the gain will improve stopping precision, but it may also cause unstable speeds during operation.

Interrupt Functions

Section 6-1

6-1-1

Interrupt Functions
Overview of CP1L Interrupt Functions
The CP1L CPU Units processing is normally cyclical (overseeing processing program execution I/O refreshing peripheral servicing), with cyclic tasks executed in the program execution stage of the cycle. The interrupt functions can be used to temporarily interrupt this cyclic processing and execute a particular program when a predefined condition occurs.

Types of Interrupt Functions


Input Interrupts (Direct Mode) Input Interrupts (Counter Mode) When one of the CPU Units built-in inputs goes from OFF to ON (or ON to OFF), the corresponding interrupt task is executed. Interrupt tasks 140 to 145 are allocated to the 8 input terminals used for the input interrupts. This function counts input pulses at one of the CPU Units built-in inputs and executes the corresponding interrupt task when the count reaches the SV. The maximum input response frequency for input interrupts (in counter mode) is 5 kHz. Scheduled Interrupts This function executes an interrupt task at a fixed time interval measured by the CPU Units built-in timer. The time interval units can be set to 10 ms, 1 ms, or 0.1 ms. The minimum timer SV is 0.5 ms. Interrupt task 2 is allocated to scheduled interrupt. High-speed Counter Interrupts This function counts input pulses with the CPU Units built-in high-speed counter and executes an interrupt task when the count reaches the preset value or falls within a preset range (target-value or zone comparison). An interrupt task between 0 and 255 can be allocated with an instruction. Refer to 5-1 High-speed Counters for details on high-speed counters. Note Power OFF interrupts cannot be used with CP1L CPU Units.

Creating an Interrupt Task Program


1,2,3... 1. Right-click NewPLC1 [CP1L] Offline in the project workspace and select Insert Program from the pop-up menu. A new program called NewProgram2 (unassigned) will be inserted in the project workspace.

318

Interrupt Functions

Section 6-1
2. Right-click NewProgram2 (unassigned) and select Properties from the pop-up menu to display the Program Properties Window.

3. Set the Task type in the Program Properties Window. In this example, interrupt task 140 was allocated to NewProgram2.

If you click the X Button in the upper-right corner of the window, you can create the program that will be executed as interrupt task 140. The programs allocated to each task are independent and an END(001) instruction must be input at the end of each program.

Interrupt Task Priority

The input interrupts (direct mode and counter mode), high-speed counter interrupts, scheduled interrupts, and external interrupts all have the same priority. If interrupt task A (an input interrupt, for example) is being executed when interrupt task B (a scheduled interrupt, for example) is called, task A processing will not be interrupted. Task B processing will be started when task A is completed. If two different types of interrupt occur simultaneously, they are executed in the following order:
Input interrupt (direct mode or counter mode) > High-speed counter interrupt > Scheduled interrupt

If two of the same type interrupt occur simultaneously, the task with the lower interrupt task number is executed first. Note If a user program is likely to generate multiple interrupts simultaneously, the interrupt tasks will be executed in the order shown above, so it may take some time from the occurrence of the interrupt condition to the actual execution of the corresponding interrupt task. In particular, it is possible that scheduled interrupts will not be executed in the preset time, so the program must be designed to avoid interrupt conflicts if necessary. If a memory address is processed both by a cyclic task and an interrupt task, an interrupt mask must be set to disable interrupts.

Duplicate Processing in Cyclic and Interrupt Tasks

319

Interrupt Functions

Section 6-1
When an interrupt occurs, execution of the cyclic task will be interrupted immediately, even during execution of a cyclic tasks instruction, and the partially processed data is saved. After the interrupt task is completed, processing returns to the cyclic task and the interrupted processing restarts with the data saved before the interrupt processing. If the interrupt task overwrites a memory address used by one of the interrupted instructions operands, that overwrite may not be reflected after the saved data is restored as processing returns to the cyclic task. To prevent an instruction from being interrupted during processing, enter DI(693) just before the instruction to disable interrupts and EI(694) just after the instruction to enable interrupts again. a. The following example shows duplicate processing by an interrupt task, which interrupts processing of a +B instruction between the first and third operands and overwrites the same memory address.
Cyclic task
+B D0 #0001 D0

Interrupt task
MOV #0010 D0

Flow of Processing
D0

Read D0 value (1234). BCD addition: 1234 + 1 = 1235 Processing interrupted. Processing of +B instruction Data saved. Addition result (1235) Interrupt occurs. MOV executed 0010 moved to D0. Interrupt completed. Processing continues. Write addition result (1235).

1234

0010

1235

The interrupt occurs during processing of the +B instruction and the result is saved temporarily without being written to the destination word (D0). The interrupt task transfers the value of #0010 to D0, but the saved result of the +B instruction (1235) is written to D0 when processing returns to the cyclic task. In the end, the interrupt tasks processing has no effect.

Since the interrupt occurs during BSET(071) processing and before #1234 is set in D10, the content of D0 and D10 do not match when the comparison is made in the interrupt task (*1) and output A remains OFF.

Interrupt Functions Procedure


Select the input interrupts. Wire the inputs. Set the PLC Setup.

Section 6-1

Determine the inputs to be used for input interrupts and corresponding task numbers. Wire the inputs. Use the CX-Programmer to select the interrupt inputs in the PLC Setup. Write the programs for the corresponding interrupt task numbers. Use MSKS(690) to specify up-differentiation or down-differentiation. Use MSKS(690) to enable input interrupts (in direct mode).

Write the ladder program.

PLC Setup

Click the Built-in Input Tab to display the Interrupt Input settings (at the bottom of the tab). Set the input function to Interrupt for each input that will be used as an input interrupt.

Note

(1) Interrupt Input settings IN0 to IN7 correspond to input interrupt numbers 0 to 7. (2) When using an input as a general-purpose (normal) input, set the input function to Normal.

Writing the Ladder Program


MSKS(690) Settings The MSKS(690) instruction must be executed in order to use input interrupts. The settings made with MSKS(690) are enabled with just one execution, so in general execute MSKS(690) in just one cycle using an up-differentiated condition.

324

Interrupt Functions

Section 6-1
MSKS(690) has the following two functions and two of the instructions are used in combination. If an up-differentiated input interrupt is being used, the first MSKS(690) instruction can be omitted since the input is set for up-differentiation by default.

Note Writing the Interrupt Tasks Program

*Input interrupts 4 and 5 are not supported by the CPU Units with 14 I/O Points. Create programs for interrupt tasks 140 to 145, which are executed by the corresponding input interrupt. Always put an END(001) instruction at the last address of the program. This example shows how to execute interrupt task 140 when input CIO 0.00 goes ON.

Input Interrupt Settings and Operation

Operation

Section 6-1
When execution condition W0.00 goes ON, MSKS(690) is executed to enable CIO 0.00 as an up-differentiated input interrupt. If CIO 0.00 goes from OFF to ON (up-differentiation), processing of the cyclic task that is currently being executed will be interrupted and processing of interrupt task 140 will start. When the interrupt task processing is completed, processing of the interrupted ladder program will restart.

Input Interrupts (Counter Mode)


This function counts up-differentiated or down-differentiated input signals and executes an interrupt task when the count reaches the set value. The counter-mode input interrupts use the same input terminals as the direct-mode input interrupts. Refer to 6-1-2 Input Interrupts (Direct Mode) for details. The counter input mode can be set to up or down (incrementing or decrementing) with MSKS(690). The counter-mode input interrupts start the same interrupt tasks (140 to 145) as the direct-mode input interrupts. The maximum input response frequency is 5 kHz total for all countermode input interrupts.

Procedure
Select the input interrupts (counter mode). Wire the inputs. Determine the inputs to be used for input interrupts and corresponding task numbers. Wire the inputs.

326

Interrupt Functions
Set the PLC Setup. Set the counter SVs.

Section 6-1

Use the CX-Programmer to select the interrupt inputs in the PLC Setup. Set the interrupt counter SVs in the corresponding AR Area words. Write the programs for the corresponding interrupt task numbers. Use MSKS(690) to specify up-differentiation or down-differentiation. Use MSKS(690) to enable input interrupts (in counter mode).

Write the ladder program.

Note

The input interrupt (counter mode) function is one of the input interrupt functions and executes an interrupt based on the pulse count. If the input pulse frequency is too high, interrupts will occur too frequently and prevent normal cyclic task processing. In this case, cycle time too long errors may occur or the pulse input may not be read. The maximum total frequency of the counter-mode interrupt inputs is 5 kHz. Even in this case, the high frequencies may adversely affect other devices operation or the system load, so check the systems operation thoroughly before using the counters at high frequencies.

PLC Setup

The procedures for using the CX-Programmer to set the PLC Setup are the same as the procedures for input interrupts (direct mode). Refer to 6-1-2 Input Interrupts (Direct Mode) for details.

Writing the Ladder Program


MSKS(690) Settings The MSKS(690) instruction must be executed in order to use input interrupts. The settings made with MSKS(690) are enabled with just one execution, so in general execute MSKS(690) in just one cycle using an up-differentiated condition. MSKS(690) has the following two functions and three of the instructions are used in combination. If up-differentiated input pulses are being used, the first MSKS(690) instruction can be omitted since the input is set for up-differentiation by default.

Note Writing the Interrupt Tasks Program

*Input interrupts 4 and 5 are not supported by CPU Units with 14 I/O Points. Create programs for interrupt tasks 140 to 145, which are executed by the corresponding input interrupt. Always put an END(001) instruction at the last address of the program. This example shows how to execute interrupt task 141 when 200 up-differentiated pulses have been counted at input CIO 0.01. (The counter is an incrementing counter.)

1. Connect an input device to input 0.00. 2. Use the CX-Programmer to set input 0.01 as an input interrupt in the PLC Setup. 3. Use the CX-Programmer to create the program to use for interrupt processing and allocate the program to interrupt task 141. 4. Use the CX-Programmer to set a high-speed counter SV of 00C8 hex (200 decimal) in A533. 5. Use the CX-Programmer to write MSKS(690) in the program.

Scheduled Interrupts
This function executes an interrupt task at a fixed time interval measured by the CPU Units built-in timer. Interrupt task 2 is allocated to scheduled interrupt.

Procedure
Set the PLC Setup. Write the ladder program. Write the program allocated to interrupt task 2 (scheduled interrupt task). Use MSKS(690) to specify the timer SV. Use the CX-Programmer to set the scheduled interrupt timer units in the PLC Setup.

PLC Setup

Click the Timings Tab and set the input function to Scheduled Interrupt Interval (the scheduled interrupt timers units). The timing units can be set to 10 ms, 1 ms, or 0.1 ms. The scheduled interrupt timer SV is calculated by multiplying this interval setting by the timer SV set with MSKS(690).

329

Interrupt Functions
Scheduled Interrupt Interval Setting

Section 6-1

Note

(1) Set a scheduled interrupt time (interval) that is longer than the time required to execute the corresponding interrupt task. (2) If the scheduled time interval is too short, the scheduled interrupt task will be executed too frequently, which may cause a long cycle time and adversely affect the cyclic task processing. (3) If an interrupt task is being executed for another interrupt (input interrupt, high-speed counter interrupt, or external interrupt) when the scheduled interrupt occurs, the scheduled interrupt will not be executed until the other interrupt task is completed. When different kinds of interrupts are being used, design the program to handle multiple interrupts smoothly. Even if two interrupts occur at the same time, the scheduled interrupts will continue as programmed, so the scheduled interrupt tasks will continue to occur at the scheduled times even if specific scheduled interrupts are delayed.

Writing the Ladder Program


MSKS(690) Settings The MSKS(690) instruction must be executed in order to use the scheduled interrupt. The settings made with MSKS(690) are enabled with just one execution, so in general execute MSKS(690) in just one cycle using an up-differentiated condition.

High-speed Counter Interrupts


This function executes the specified interrupt task (0 to 255) when the CP1L CPU Units built-in high-speed counter PV matches a pre-registered value (target value comparison) or lies within a pre-registered range (range comparison). CTBL(882) is used to register the comparison table. Either CTBL(882) or INI(880) can be used to start comparison. INI(880) is used to stop comparison. For details on the built-in high-speed counter, refer to 5-1 High-speed Counters.

Procedure
Set the PLC Setup. Wire the inputs. Write the ladder program. Write the interrupt task program. Use CTBL(882) to register the high-speed counter number and comparison table. Create the comparison tables data in advance. Wire the input being used for the high-speed counter. Using the CX-Programmer, set the PLC Setup so that the built-in input is used for a high-speed counter.

No-protocol Communications
No-protocol communications enable sending and receiving data using the TRANSMIT (TXD(236)) and RECEIVE (RXD(235)) instructions without using a protocol and without data conversion (e.g., no retry processing, data type conversion, or process branching based on received data). The communications mode for the serial port must be set for no-protocol communications in the PLC Setup. No-protocol communications are used to send data in one direction to or from standard devices that have an RS-232C or RS-422A/485 port using TXD(236) or RXD(235).

The communications mode in the PLC Setup must be set to the Serial PLC Link Mode to enable this functionality. Either serial port 1 or 2 can be used. (See note.) Words are allocated in memory in the Serial PLC Link Words (CIO 3100 to CIO 3199). A maximum of 10 words can be transferred by each CP1L CPU Unit, but the number of linked words can be set to fewer words. (The size must be the same for all CP1L CPU Units.)

Note

Section 6-3
Serial PLC Links cannot be used on serial ports 1 and 2 at the same time. If one port is set as a Serial PLC Link slave or master, it will not be possible to set the other port for a Serial PLC Link. A PLC Setup error will occur if an attempt is made to set both ports for Serial PLC Links. 1:N Connections between CP1L/CJ1M CPU Units (8 Nodes Maximum)

Polling Unit Link Method

The data for all the Polled Units in the Serial PLC Links ar reflected in the Polling Unit only, and each Polled Unit reflects the data of the Polling Unit only. The advantage of the Polling Unit link method is that the addresses allocated for the local Polled Unit data are the same in each Polled Unit, allowing data to be accessed using common ladder programming. The areas allocated for the unit numbers of the PT or Polled Units not present in the network are undefined in the Polling Unit only.

1:1 Links
Two PLCs can be connected through their RS-232C ports to create Link Areas.

Applicable PLCs

A 1:1 Link can be create between any of the following SYSMAC PLCs: CP1L, CQM1H, C200HX/HG/HE(-Z), CPM1A-V1, CPM2A, CPM2B, CPM2C, and SRM1(-V2)

Connections

To create a 1:1 Link, connect the RS-232C ports on the two PLCs.

RS-232C 1:1 Link

PLC Setup

Set the PLC to a 1:1 Link Master or a 1:1 Link Slave in the PLC Setup. Set the other PLC to the opposite setting.

Link Area Size

The 1:1 Link Area in the CP1L is from CIO 3000 to CIO 3015 (16 words). Even if a 1:1 Link is created with a CQM1H or C200HX/HG/HE(-Z) PLC, the 1:1 Link Area will be only 16 words on both sides of the link, and only LR 00 to LR 15 will be used in the CQM1H or C200HX/HG/HE(-Z) PLC. LR 16 to LR 63 cannot be used for 1:1 Links Here, operation is described assuming that the master is the CP1L and the slave is the CPM2A.

1:1 NT Links
The NT Link communications protocol was developed to enable high-speed communications between PLC and Programmable Terminals (PTs). There are two communications modes supported by the NT Link protocol: 1:1 NT Links, in which one PLC is connected to one PT, and 1:N NT Links, in which one PLC is connected to more than one PT.

Connections

OMRON PT

With the NT Link protocol, the PLC automatically responds to commands sent from the PT, so no communications programming is required in the CP1L.

Battery-free Operation
Overview
With the CP1L CPU Unit, saving backup data in the built-in flash memory (non-volatile memory) enables operation with no battery mounted (i.e., battery-free operation). I/O memory (such as CIO), however, is constantly refreshed during operation, so backup data is not saved in the built-in flash memory. When battery-free operation is used, therefore, programs must be created assuming that I/O memory data will not be saved. For example, if a battery is mounted, then HR, CNT, and DM data is saved during power interruptions if a battery is mounted but not when battery-free operation is used.

370

Battery-free Operation

Section 6-5
In that case it is necessary to set the required values in the ladder program. It is also possible to save to the built-in flash memory in advance the DM initial values that are to be set for the DM on RAM at startup.

6-5-2

Using Battery-free Operation


Be careful of the following points, and create programs for which it will not be a problem even if the correct I/O memory values are not held. For unstable parts of I/O memory, include programming at the start of operation to set required data. When battery-free operation is used, the Output OFF Flag (A500.15) in the Auxiliary Area becomes unstable. When the Output OFF Flag turns ON, all outputs turn OFF, so include the following program for clearing the Output OFF Flag at the start of operation.
First Cycle Flag

Precautions when Creating Programs for Battery-free Operation

RSET A200.11 A500.15

Do not reference the clock function, (the clock data in words A351 to A354 of the Auxiliary Area, or the various kinds of time data).

Saving DM Initial Values (Only when Required)


1,2,3...

Use the following procedure to save to the built-in flash memory the DM initial values that are to be set at startup.

1. First set in the DM Area the data that is to be set as initial values at startup. 2. Execute a backup to flash memory from the CX-Programmer's Memory Cassette Transfer/Data Memory Backup Dialog Box. The procedure is as follows: a. Select PLC - Edit - Memory Cassette/DM. The following Memory Cassette Transfer/DM Backup Dialog Box will be displayed.

b.

Section 6-6
Select the Data Memory Option in the Backup to Flash Memory Area and click the Backup Button. The DM data will be written to the built-in flash memory.

Note

The DM data that is saved and written at startup is the entire DM Area (D0 to D32767).

PLC Setup
1,2,3... 1. Set Do not detect Low Battery (run without battery) to Do not detect. 2. Set IOM Hold Bit Status at Startup and Forced Status Hold Bit Status at Startup to Clear (OFF). 3. Set Read DM from flash memory to Read. (Only when DM initial values have been saved as described above.) !Caution The CP1L CPU Units automatically back up the user program and parameter data to flash memory when these are written to the CPU Unit. Also, the CXProgrammer can be used to save all of the data in the DM Area to the flash memory for use as initial values when the power supply is turned ON. Neither of these functions saves the I/O memory data (including HR Area data, counter PVs and Completion Flags, and DM Area data other than initial values). The HR Area data, counter PVs and Completion Flags, and DM Area data other than initial values are held during power interruptions with a battery. If there is a battery error, the contents of these areas may not be accurate after a power interruption. If HR Area data, counter PVs and Completion Flags, and DM Area data other than initial values are used to control external outputs, prevent inappropriate outputs from being made whenever the Battery Error Flag (A402.04) is ON.

Memory Cassette Functions


Overview
CP1L CPU Units have Memory Cassette functions that enable data in the CPU Unit to be stored on and read from a special CP1W-ME05M Memory Cassette. These functions can be used for the following applications. Copying data to other CPU Units to produce duplicate devices. Backing up data in case the CPU Unit needs to be replaced due to any malfunction. Writing and updating data when existing device versions are upgraded.

Memory Cassette Specifications

Use the following Memory Cassette.

Memory Cassette Functions Data that Can be Stored on a Memory Cassette


The following data can be stored on a Memory Cassette.

Program indexes (section names, section comments, program comments) Function Block (FB) sources DM DM initial values (See note.)

The areas for storing various types of data have fixed allocations in the Memory Cassette, and a single Memory Cassette corresponds to a single CPU Unit. Therefore it is not possible to simultaneously store multiple items of the same type of data (e.g., two user programs). Also, the data can only be read to a CPU Unit. It cannot be directly managed from a personal computer like files. The only data that can be stored on a Memory Cassette is the data from a CPU Unit. Note The CX-Programmer's function for saving DM initial values is used for saving the values in the DM Area (D0 to D32767) to the built-in flash memory as initial values. By means of a setting in the PLC Setup, these initial values can then be automatically written to the DM Area (D0 to D32767) when the power is turned ON.

Precautions when Using the Memory Cassette Data Transfer Function

In order for Memory Cassette data to be transferred, the Memory Cassette must be mounted in the CPU Unit. The BKUP indicator will light while data is being transferred to or verified in a Memory Cassette. Never turn OFF the power to the PLC or remove the Memory Cassette while the BKUP indicator is lit. Doing either may make it impossible to use the Memory Cassette. Memory Cassette data transfers and verification are possible only when the CPU Unit operating mode is PROGRAM mode. The Memory Cassette transfer function cannot be used in either RUN or MONITOR mode. When using automatic transfer from a Memory Cassette at startup, be sure to transfer the data to the Memory Cassette if any changes are made using online editing. The operating mode cannot be switched from PROGRAM mode to RUN or MONITOR mode while a Memory Cassette data transfer or verification is in progress. The following table shows whether data transfers are enabled when the CPU Unit is protected in various ways.

Read Protection for Individual Tasks Using Passwords


Overview It is possible to read-protect individual program tasks (referred to as task read protection below) or the entire PLC. The same password controls access to all of the read-protected tasks. Task read protection prevents anyone from displaying or editing the read-protected set of tasks from CX-Programmer without inputting the correct password. In this case, the entire program can be uploaded, but the read-protected tasks cannot be displayed or edited without inputting the correct password. Tasks that are not read-protected can be displayed, edited, or modified with online editing. Note Task read protection cannot be set if UM read protection is already set. However, it is possible to set UM read protection after task read protection has been set.

Operating Procedure 1,2,3... 1. Right-click the tasks that will be password-protected, select Properties from the pop-up menu, and select the Task read protect Option on the Protection Tab Page.

2. Display the Protection Tab of the PLC Properties Dialog Box and register a password in the Task read protection Box.

3. Connect online and select PLC - Transfer - To PLC to transfer the program. The tasks registered in step 2 will be password-protected. Note The program can be transferred after step 1, above, and then password protection be set by selecting PLC - Protection - Set Password. The tasks registered in step 1 will be password-protected.

Note

1. If the CX-Programmer is used to read a task with task read protection applied, an error will occur and the task will not be read. Likewise, if the PT Ladder Monitor function is used to read a password protected task, an error will occur and the task will not be read. 2. The entire program can be transferred to another CPU Unit even if individual tasks in the program are read-protected. The task read protection will remain in effective for the password-protected tasks. 3. When the CX-Programmer is used to compare a user program in the computer's memory with a user program in the CPU Unit, password-protected tasks will be compared too.

Restrictions to Function Block Use Prohibiting Backing Up the Programs to a Memory Cassette

Function block definitions can be read even if the entire program or individual tasks in a program containing function blocks are read-protected. If required, set read protection individually for each function block. Overview When a password is set for the entire user program or for a task from the CXProgrammer, prohibiting backing up the user program can be set as an option. Doing so will make it impossible to upload PLC data to the CX-Programmer and make it impossible to save PLC data offline to a storage device.
CX-Programmer When a password is set for the entire user program, or for one or more tasks, backing up the user program (i.e., creating an OBJ program file) can be prohibited.

Write Protection
The user program can be write-protected by turning ON pin 1 of the CPU Units DIP switch. When this pin is ON, it wont be possible to change the user program or parameter area (e.g., PLC Setup and routing tables) from the CXProgrammer. This function can prevent the program from being overwritten inadvertently at the work site. It is still possible to read and display the program from the CX-Programmer when it is write-protected.

Program Protection Write-protection Using Passwords

Section 6-7
The program (or selected tasks) can also be write-protected if the write protection option is selected from the CX-Programmer when a password is being registered for the entire program or those selected tasks. The write protection setting can prevent unauthorized or accidental overwriting of the program.
CX-Programmer When a password is being registered for the entire user program or selected tasks, program write-protection can be enabled/disabled with an option setting.

Password?

The user program cannot be overwritten. CPU Unit Overwriting can be prohibited with password protection, regardless of the DIP switch setting.

Program Protection Write Protection against FINS Commands Sent to the CPU Unit via Networks

Section 6-7
It is possible to prohibit write operations and other editing operations sent to the PLC's CPU Unit as FINS commands through a network (including write operations from CX-Programmer, CX-Protocol, CX-Process, and other applications using Fins Gateway). Read processes are not prohibited. FINS write protection can disable write processes such as downloading the user program, PLC Setup, or I/O memory, changing the operating mode, and performing online editing. It is possible to exclude selected nodes from write protection so that data can be written from those nodes. An event log in the CPU Unit automatically records all write processes sent through the network and that log can be read with a FINS command.

Protecting Program Execution Using the Lot Number


The lot number is stored in A310 and A311 and can be used to prevent the program from being executed on a CPU Unit with the wrong lot number. The following instructions can be added to the program to create a fatal error and thus prevent program execution if an attempt is made to execute the program on a CPU Unit with the incorrect lot number. A password can also be set to read-protect the program so that it cannot be copied, e.g., using a Memory Cassette. The lot number stored in A310 and A311 cannot be changed by the user. The upper digits of the lot number are stored in A311 and the lower digits are stored in A310, as shown below.
Manufacturing lot number (5 digits)

Failure Alarm Instructions: FAL(006) and FALS(007)


The FAL(006) and FALS(007) instructions generate user-defined errors. FAL(006) generates a non-fatal error that allows program execution to continue and FALS(007) generates a fatal error that stops program execution. When the user-defined error conditions (i.e., the execution conditions for FAL(006) or FAL(007)) are met, the instruction will be executed and the following processing will be performed. 1,2,3... 1. The FAL Error Flag (A402.15) or FALS Error Flag (A401.06) is turned ON. 2. The corresponding error code is written to A400. 3. The error code and time of occurrence are stored in the Error Log. 4. The error indicator on the front of the CPU Unit will flash or light. 5. If FAL(006) has been executed, the CPU Unit will continue operating. If FALS(007) has been executed, the CPU Unit will stop operating. (Program execution will stop.)

Section 6-8

When execution condition A goes ON, an error with FAL number 002 is generated, A402.15 (FAL Error Flag) is turned ON, and A360.02 (FAL Number 002 Flag) is turned ON. Program execution continues. Errors generated by FAL(006) can be cleared by executing FAL(006) with FAL number 00 or performing the error read/clear operation from the CX-Programmer. Operation of FALS(007)
B FALS 003 #0000

When execution condition B goes ON, an error with FALS number 003 is generated, and A401.06 (FALS Error Flag) is turned ON. Program execution is stopped. Errors generated by FAL(006) can be cleared by eliminating the cause of the error and performing the error read/clear operation from the CX-Programmer.

6-8-2

Failure Point Detection: FPD(269)


FPD(269) performs time monitoring and logic diagnosis. The time monitoring function generates a non-fatal error if the diagnostic output isnt turned ON within the specified monitoring time. The logic diagnosis function indicates which input is preventing the diagnostic output from being turned ON.

Time Monitoring Function

FPD(269) starts timing when it is executed and turns ON the Carry Flag if the diagnostic output isnt turned ON within the specified monitoring time. The Carry Flag can be programmed as the execution condition for an error processing block. Also, FPD(269) can be programmed to generate a non-fatal FAL error with the desired FAL number. When an FAL error is generated, a preset message will be registered and can be displayed on the CX-Programmer. FPD(269) can be set to output the results of logic diagnosis (the address of the bit preventing the diagnostic output from being turned ON) just before the message. The teaching function can be used to automatically determine the actual time required for the diagnostic output to go ON and set the monitoring time.

Logic Diagnosis Function

FPD(269) determines which input bit is causing the diagnostic output to remain OFF and outputs the result. The output can be set to bit address output (PLC memory address) or message output (ASCII). If bit address output is selected, the PLC memory address of the bit can be transferred to an Index Register and the Index Register can be indirectly addressed in later processing.

390

Failure Diagnosis Functions

Section 6-8
If the message output is selected, an error message can be displayed on the CX-Programmer at the same time as a FAL error is generated for time monitoring.

Time Monitoring Monitors whether output C goes ON with 10 seconds after input A. If C doesnt go ON within 10 seconds, a failure is detected and the Carry Flag is turned ON. The Carry Flag executes the error-processing block. Also, an FAL error (non-fatal error) with FAL number 004 is generated. Logic Diagnosis FPD(269) determines which input bit in block B is preventing output C from going ON. That bit address is output to D1000 and D1001. Auxiliary Area Flags and Words

Turns ON when FAL(006) is executed. Turns ON when FALS(007) is executed. The corresponding flag turns ON when an FAL(006) error occurs. The Error Log Area contains information on the most recent 20 errors. When an error occurs, the Error Log Pointer is incremented by 1 to indicate where the next error record will be recorded as an offset from the beginning of the Error Log Area (A100). Turn this bit ON to reset the Error Log Pointer (A300) to 00. Turn this bit ON when you want the monitoring time to be set automatically when FPD(269) is executed.

Simulating System Errors


FAL(006) and FALS(007) can be used to intentionally create fatal and nonfatal system errors. This can be used in system debugging to test display messages on Programmable Terminals (PTs) or other operator interfaces. Use the following procedure. 1,2,3... 1. Set the FAL or FALS number to use for simulation in A529. A529 is used when simulating errors for both FAL(006) and FALS(007). 2. Set the FAL or FALS number to use for simulation as the first operand of FAL(006) or FALS(007).

391

Failure Diagnosis Functions

Section 6-8
3. Set the error code and error to be simulated as the second operand (two words) of FAL(006) or FALS(007). Indicate a nonfatal error for FAL(006) and a fatal error for FALS(007). To simulate more than one system error, use more than one FAL(006) or FALS(007) instruction with the same value in A529 and different values for the second operand. Auxiliary Area Flags and Words
Name FAL/FALS Number for System Error Simulation Address A529 Operation Set a dummy FAL/FALS number to use to simulate a system error. 0001 to 01FF hex: FAL/FALS numbers 1 to 511 0000 or 0200 to FFFF hex: No FAL/FALS number for system error simulation.

Example for a Battery Error


Execution condition a

MOV &100 A529

Set FAL number 100 in A529.

MOV #00F7 D10

Set error code for battery error (#00F7) in D10.

FAL 100 D10

Generate a battery error using FAL number 100.

Note Use the same methods as for actual system errors to clear the simulated system errors. Refer to the 9-2 Troubleshooting for details. All system errors simulated with FAL(006) and FALS(007) can be cleared by cycling the power supply.

6-8-4

Output OFF Bit


As an emergency measure when an error occurs, all outputs from Output Units can be turned OFF by turning ON the Output OFF Bit (A500.15). The operating mode will remain in RUN or MONITOR mode, but all outputs will be turned OFF. Note Normally (when IOM Hold Bit = OFF), all outputs from Output Units are turned OFF when the operating mode is changed from RUN/MONITOR mode to PROGRAM mode. The Output OFF Bit can be used to turn OFF all outputs without switching to PROGRAM mode.

Application Precaution for DeviceNet

When the CPM1A-DRT21 is used, all slave outputs will be turned OFF, i.e., all inputs to the master will be OFF.

The resolution is 1/6,000. The open-circuit detection function is activated in the ranges of 1 to 5 V and 4 to 20 mA. The Analog Input Unit uses four input words and two output words, so a maximum of three Units can be connected.

Current in the range of 3.2 to 4 mA is expressed as twos complement. If an input is below the range (i.e., less than 3.2 mA), the open-circuit detection function is activated and the data becomes 8,000.

Averaging Function

For analog inputs, the averaging function operates when the averaging bit is set to 1. The averaging function outputs the average (a moving average) of the last eight input values as the converted value. If there is only a slight variation in inputs, it is handled by the averaging function as a smooth input. The averaging function stores the average (a moving average) of the last eight input values as the converted value. Use this function to smooth inputs that vary at a short interval.

Open-circuit Detection Function

The open-circuit detection function is activated when the input range is set to 1 to 5 V and the voltage drops below 0.8 V, or when the input range is set to 4 to 20 mA and the current drops below 3.2 mA. When the open-circuit detection function is activated, the converted data will be set to 8,000. The time for enabling or clearing the open-circuit detection function is the same as the time for converting the data. If the input returns to the convertible range, the open-circuit detection is cleared automatically and the output returns to the normal range.

Note

(1) Use shielded twisted-pair cables, but do not connect the shield. (2) When an input is not being used, short the + and terminals. (3) Separate wiring from power lines (AC power supply lines, high-voltage lines, etc.) (4) When there is noise in the power supply line, install a noise filter on the input section and the power supply. (5) Refer to the following information on open circuits when using voltage inputs.

403

Analog Input Units

Section 7-2

Analog input device 1

Analog input device 2

24 VDC

For example, if analog input device 2 is outputting 5 V and the same power supply is being used as shown above, about 1/3, or 1.6 V, will be applied at the input for input device 1. Consider the following information on open input circuits when using voltage inputs. Either use separate power supplies, or install an isolator at each input. If the same power supply is used as shown in the following diagram and an open circuit occurs at point A or B, an unwanted current flow will occur as shown by the dotted lines in the diagram, creating a voltage at the other input of about 1/3 to 1/2. If the 1 to 5-V range is being used, the open-circuit detection function will not operate. Also, if there is an open circuit at C, the open-circuit detection function will not operate because the negative sides are the same.

3. Creating the Ladder Program


Allocating I/O Words Four input words and two output words are allocated from the next words following the last I/O words allocated to the CPU Unit or an existing Expansion Unit or Expansion I/O Unit.
Words (m+1) to (m+4)

Words (n+1), (n+2)

Writing Set Data

Write the settings for input use, averaging use, and range codes for words n+1 and n+2. When the set data is transferred from the CPU Unit to the Analog I/O Unit, the A/D conversion will be started.

Analog input signal range 10 to 10 V 0 to 10 V 1 to 5 V or 4 to 20 mA 0 to 5 V or 0 to 20 mA

The Analog Input Unit will not start converting analog I/O values until the range code has been written. Once the range code has been set, it is not possible to change the setting while power is being supplied to the CPU Unit. To change the I/O range, turn the CPU Unit OFF then ON again. Averaging Set whether averaging is to be used for set data. When the averaging bit is set to 1, the average (moving average) for the past eight inputs is output as conversion data. Read the conversion value storage area with the ladder program. With word m as the last input word allocated to the CPU Unit or an already-connected Expansion Unit, the A/D conversion data will be output to the following words m+1 to m+4. After the power is turned ON, it will require two cycle times plus approximately 50 ms before the first conversion data is stored in the input words. Therefore, create a program as shown below, so that when operation begins simultaneously with startup it will wait for valid conversion data. The analog input data will be 0000 until the initial processing is completed.
Power ON P_On T5 #0002 T5 MOV(021) 2 D0

Reading Analog Input Conversion Values

Startup Operation

TIM5 is started when the power is turned ON. After 0.1 to 0.2 s (100 to 200 ms) elapses, the TIM5 contact turns ON and the analog input 1 conversion data stored in word 2 is transferred to DM0.

Handling Unit Errors

When an error occurs in an Analog Input Unit, the analog input conversion data becomes 0000.

405

Analog Output Units

Section 7-3
Expansion Unit errors are output to bits 0 to 6 of word A436. The bits are allocated from A436.00 in order starting with the Unit nearest the CPU Unit. Use these flags in the program when it is necessary to detect errors.

Analog Output Units


Each CP1W-DA041/CPM1A-DA041 Analog Output Unit provides four analog outputs. The analog output signal ranges are 1 to 5 V, 0 to 10 V, -10 to +10 V, 0 to 20 mA, and 4 to 20 mA. The resolution is 1/6,000. The open-circuit detection function is activated in the ranges of 1 to 5 V and 4 to 20 mA. The Analog Input Unit uses four output words, so a maximum of three Units can be connected.

No Yes

The Analog Input Unit will not start converting analog I/O values until the range code has been written. The output will be 0 V or 0 mA. From when the range code has been written until data in the analog output convertible range is written, 0 V or 0 mA will be output in the 0 to 10 V, -10 to +10 V, and 0 to 20 mA ranges, and 1 V or 4 mA will be output in the 1 to 5 V and 4 to 20 mA ranges. Once the range code has been set, it is not possible to change the setting while power is being supplied to the CPU Unit. To change the I/O range, turn the CPU Unit OFF then ON again.

Writing Analog Output Set Values

Section 7-3
The ladder program can be used to write data to the output word where the set value is stored. The output word will be n+1 when n is the last output word allocated to the CPU Unit, or previous Expansion Unit or Expansion I/O Unit. After power is turned ON, it will require two cycle times plus approximately 50 ms before the first data is converted. The following table shows the output status after the initial processing is completed.
Output type Output range Before range code is written After range code is written Voltage output 0 to 10 V, -10 to +10 V 0V 0V 1V 1 to 5 V Current output 0 to 20 mA 0 mA 0 mA 4 mA 4 to 20 mA

Startup Operation

Therefore, create a program as shown below, so that when operation begins simultaneously with startup it will wait for valid set data.
Always ON Flag

P_On T5 #0002 T5 MOV(021) D100 102

TIM 005 will start as soon as power turns ON. After 0.1 to 0.2 s (100 to 200 ms), the Completion Flag for TIM 005 will turn ON, and the data stored in DM 0100 will be moved to IR 102 as the conversion data for analog output 1.

Handling Unit Errors

When an error occurs at the Analog Output Unit, the analog output will be 0 V or 0 mA. If a CPU Unit fatal error occurs when analog outputs are set in the 1 to 5 V or 4 to 20 mA range, 0 V or 0 mA will be output for a CPU error I/O bus error, and 1 V or 1 mA will be output for all other errors. Expansion Unit errors are output to bits 0 to 6 of word A436. The bits are allocated from A436.00 in order starting with the Unit nearest the CPU Unit. Use these flags in the program when it is necessary to detect errors.

Program Example
Analog output Output 1 Output 2 Output 3 Output 4 Output range 0 to 10 V 4 to 20 mA -10 to 10 V Not used. Range code 001 011 000 -(000) Set data 1001 (9 hex) 1011 (B hex) 1000 (8 hex) 0000 (0 hex) Destination word Wd n+1 Wd n+1 Wd n+2 Wd n+2

(5) Use crimp terminals. (Tighten terminals to a torque of 0.5 Nm.) (6) When using current inputs, short VIN to IIN. (7) When there is noise in the power supply line, install a noise filter on the input section and the power supply terminals.

Creating a Ladder Program

I/O Allocation Two input words and one output word are allocated to the Analog I/O Unit, starting from the next word following the last allocated word on the CPU Unit or previous Expansion Unit or Expansion I/O Unit.

Section 7-4

Writing the Range Code Write the range code to word n+1. A/D or D/A conversion begins when the range code is transferred from the CPU Unit to the Analog I/O Unit. There are eight range codes, FF00 to FF07, that combine both the analog input 1 and 2 and analog output signal ranges, as shown below.

The voltage/current selection is made by switching the wiring. Write the range code to the Analog I/O Unit output word (n + 1) in the first cycle of program execution.
First Cycle Flag A200.11 MOV(021) FF02 (n+1) Range code (4 digits hexadecimal)
Analog input 1: 1 to 5 V or 4 to 20 mA Analog input 2: 0 to 10 V Analog output: 0 to 10 V or 4 to 20 mA

Allocated output word

The Analog I/O Unit will not start converting analog I/O values until the range code has been written. Once the range code has been set, it is not possible to change the setting while power is being supplied to the CPU Unit. To change the I/O range, turn the CPU Unit OFF then ON again. If a range code other than those specified in the above table is written to n+1, the range code will not be received by the Analog I/O Unit and analog I/O conversion will not start.

If FF@@ is input, 0 V/4 mA will be output. 4. If an output value is specified, the following bits will be ignored. Output range of 10 to 10 V: Bits 08 to 14 Output range of 0 to 10 V/4 to 20 mA: Bits 08 to 15 Startup Operation After power is turned ON, it will require two cycle times plus approx. 100 ms before the first data is converted. The following instructions can be placed at the beginning of the program to delay reading converted data from analog inputs until conversion is actually possible. Analog input data will be 0000 until initial processing has been completed. Analog output data will be 0 V or 0 mA until the range code has been written. After the range code has been written, the analog output data will be 0 V or 4 mA if the range is 0 to 10 V, 10 to 10 V, or 4 to 20 mA.

Averaging Function for Analog Inputs

The averaging function can be enabled for inputs using the DIP switch. The averaging function stores the average (a moving average) of the last eight input values as the converted value. Use this function to smooth inputs that vary at a short interval. The open-circuit detection function is activated when the input range is set to 1 to 5 V and the voltage drops below 0.8 V, or when the input range is set to 4 to 20 mA and the current drops below 3.2 mA. When the open-circuit detection function is activated, the converted data will be set to 8,000. The time for enabling or clearing the open-circuit detection function is the same as the time for converting the data. If the input returns to the convertible range, the open-circuit detection is cleared automatically and the output returns to the normal range.

Analog I/O Units

Section 7-4
(5) Refer to the following diagram regarding wiring disconnections when voltage input is being used.

A Analog input device 1 B C

Analog input device 2

24 VDC

Example: If analog input device 2 is outputting 5 V and the same power supply is being used for both devices as shown above, approximately 1/3, or 1.6 V, will be applied to the input for input device 1. If a wiring disconnection occurs when voltage input is being used, the situation described below will result. Either separate the power supplies for the connected devices, or use an isolator for each input. If the same power supply is being used by the connected devices and a disconnection occurs at points A or B in the above diagram, an unwanted circuit path will occur as shown along the dotted line in the diagram. If that occurs, a voltage of approximately 1/3 to 1/2 of the output voltage of the other connected device will be generated. If that voltage is generated while the setting is for 1 to 5 V, open-circuit detection may not be possible. Also, if a disconnection occurs at point C in the diagram, the negative (-) side will be used in for both devices and open-circuit detection will not be possible. This problem will not occur for current inputs even if the same power supply is used. Note When external power is supplied (when setting the range code), or when there is a power interruption, pulse-form analog output of up to 1 ms may be generated. If this causes problems with operation, take countermeasures such as those suggested below. Turn ON the power supply for the CP1L CPU Unit first, and then turn ON the power supply for the load after confirming correct operation. Turn OFF the power supply for the load before turning OFF the power supply for the CP1L CPU Unit.

Analog I/O Units


Creating a Ladder Program I/O Allocation

Section 7-4

Two input words and one output word are allocated to the Analog I/O Unit starting from the next word following the last allocated word on the CPU Unit or previous Expansion Unit or Expansion I/O Unit.
Analog I/O Unit Word m+1 Word m+2 32 inputs 16 outputs Word n+1

Writing the Range Code Write the range code to word n+1. A/D or D/A conversion begins when the range code is transferred from the CPU Unit to the Analog I/O Unit. There are five range codes, 000 to 100, that combine the analog input 1 and 2 and analog output signal ranges, as shown below.
Range code 000 001 010 011 100
15 n+1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 Analog output Analog input 1 Analog input 0

Analog input 0 signal range 10 to 10 V 0 to 10 V 1 to 5 V/4 to 20 mA 0 to 5 V/0 to 20 mA --8

Analog input 1 signal range 10 to 10 V 0 to 10 V 1 to 5 V/4 to 20 mA 0 to 5 V/0 to 20 mA ---

Analog output signal range 10 to 10 V 0 to 10 V 1 to 5 V 0 to 20 mA 4 to 20 mA

7 6 5

4 3

Example The following instructions set analog input 0 to 4 to 20 mA, analog input 1 to 0 to 10 V, and the analog output to 10 to 10 V.
First Cycle Flag A200.11 MOV(021) #800A n+1

Analog input 0: 4 to 20 mA Analog input 1: 0 to 10 V Analog output: 10 to 10 V

The Analog I/O Unit will not start converting analog I/O values until the range code has been written. Until conversion starts, inputs will be 0000, and 0 V or 0 mA will be output. After the range code has been set, 0 V or 0 mA will be output for the 0 to 10-V, 10 to 10-V, or 0 to 20-mA ranges, and 1 V or 4 mA will be output for the 1 to 5-V and 4 to 20-mA ranges until a convertible value has been written to the output word. Once the range code has been set, it is not possible to change the setting while power is being supplied to the CPU Unit. To change the I/O range, turn the CPU Unit OFF then ON again.

435

Analog I/O Units


Reading Converted Analog Input Values

Section 7-4

The ladder program can be used to read the memory area words where the converted values are stored. Values are output to the next two words (m + 1, m + 2) following the last input word (m) allocated to the CPU Unit or previous Expansion Unit or Expansion I/O Unit. Writing Analog Output Set Values The ladder program can be used to write data to the memory area where the set value is stored. The output word will be n+1, where n is the last output word allocated to the CPU Unit or previous Expansion Unit or Expansion I/O Unit. Startup Operation After power is turned ON, it will require two cycle times plus approx. 50 ms before the first data is converted. The following instructions can be placed at the beginning of the program to delay reading converted data from analog inputs until conversion is actually possible. Analog input data will be 0000 until initial processing has been completed. Analog output data will be 0 V or 0 mA until the range code has been written. After the range code has been written, the analog output data will be 0 V or 0 mA if the range is 0 to 10 V, 10 to 10 V, or 0 to 20 mA, or it will be 1 V or 4 mA if the range is 1 to 5 V or 4 to 20 mA.
Always ON Flag P_On T5 #0002 T5 MOV(021) 2 D0 TIM 5 will start as soon as power turns ON. After 0.1 to 0.2 s (100 to 200 ms), the input for TIM 5 will turn ON, and the converted data from analog input 0 that is stored in word 2 will be transferred to D00000.

Handling Unit Errors When an error occurs in the Analog I/O Unit, analog input data will be 0000 and 0 V or 0 mA will be output as the analog output. If a CPU error or an I/O bus error (fatal errors) occurs at the CPU Unit and the analog output is set to 1 to 5 V or 4 to 20 mA, 0 V or 0 mA will be output. For any other fatal errors at the CPU Unit, 1 V or 4 mA will be output. Expansion Unit and Expansion I/O Unit errors are output to bits 0 to 6 of word A436. The bits are allocated from A436.00 in order starting from the Unit nearest the CPU Unit. Use these flags in the program when it is necessary to detect errors. Programming Example This programming example uses these ranges: Analog input 0: 0 to 10 V Analog input 1: 4 to 20 mA Analog output: 0 to 10 V

Note Creating a Ladder Program

Do not connect anything to terminals not used for inputs. Word Allocations Temperature Sensor Units are allocated words as Expansion Units, in order of connection. A Temperature Sensor Unit is allocated the next input words following the input words of the CPU Unit or previous Expansion Unit or Expansion I/O Unit. Four input words are allocated is to the 2-input CPM1A-TS001 or CPM1A-TS101 and four input words are allocated to the 4-input CPM1ATS002 or CPM1A-TS102. No output words are allocated.

Converted temperature data from input 0 Converted temperature data from input 1

m is the last input word allocated to the CPU Unit, Expansion I/O Unit, or Expansion Unit connected immediately before the Temperature Sensor Unit. Negative values are stored as 2s complements. Data for range codes that include one digit after the decimal point are stored without the decimal point, i.e., 10 times the actual value is stored.
Input Unit: 1C Unit: 0.1C K or J K, J, Pt100 or JPt100 Data conversion examples 850C 0352 hex 200C FF38 hex 10 500.0C 5000 1388 hex 20.0C 200 FF38 hex 200.0C 2000 F830 hex

If the input temperature exceeds the range that can be converted, the converted temperature data will be held at the maximum or minimum value in the range. If the input temperature exceeds the range by more than a specified amount, the open-circuit detection function will detect an open-circuit and the converted temperature data will be set to 7FFF. The open-circuit detection function will also operate if the cold junction compensator is faulty. The open-circuit detection function will be automatically cleared and normal input temperature conversion will begin automatically when the input temperature returns to the convertible range.

Startup Operation

Section 7-5

After power is turned ON, approximately 1 s is required for the first conversion data to be stored in the input word. During that period, the data will be 7FFE. Therefore, create a program as shown below, so that when operation begins simultaneously with startup it will wait for valid conversion data.

Handling Unit Errors Expansion Unit and Expansion I/O Unit errors are output to bits 0 to 6 of word A436. The bits are allocated from A436.00 in order starting from the Unit nearest the CPU Unit. CP1W-/CPM1A-TS002 and CP1W-/CPM1ATS102 Temperature Sensor Units are allocated two bits each. Use these flags in the program when it is necessary to detect Expansion Unit/Expansion I/O Unit errors. When an error occurs, the Temperature Sensor Unit data becomes 7FFF hex (the same as for an open-circuit detection). With an open-circuit detection, it is not reflected in word A436. Programming Example 1,2,3... 1. The following programming example shows how to convert the input data from 2 temperature sensor inputs to BCD and store the result in D0 and D1.

Two-decimal-place Mode

If pin 2 on the DIP switch is turned ON, values are stored to two decimal places. In this case, temperature data is stored as 6-digit signed hexadecimal (binary) data with 4 digits in the integer portion and 2 digits after the decimal point. The actual data stored in memory is 100 times the actual value, i.e., the decimal point is not indicated. Methods for handling this data are described in this section. When set to store values to two decimal places, temperature data as far as two digits after the decimal point is converted to 6-digit binary data, but the actual resolution is not 0.01C (F). For this reason, there may be skipping and inaccuracies in the first digit after the decimal point (0.1). Treat any resolution above that specified for the normal data format as reference data.

I/O Allocation I/O words are allocated to the CompoBus/S I/O Link Unit in the same way as to other Expansion Units and Expansion I/O Units, i.e., the next available input and output words are allocated. As shown below, when m is the last allocated input word and n is the last allocated output word, the CompoBus/S I/ O Link Unit is allocated m+1 as its input word and n+1 as its output word.

Note

(1) The 8 bits of I/O data are not always transmitted simultaneously. In other words, 8 bits of data transmitted from the Master CPU Unit at the same time will not always reach the Slave CPU Unit simultaneously, and 8 bits of data transmitted from the Slave CPU Unit at the same time will not always reach the Master CPU Unit simultaneously. When the 8 bits of input data must be read together, modify the ladder program in the CPU Unit receiving the data. For example, read the input data twice in succession and accept the data only when the two values match. (2) Unused bits in the CompoBus/S I/O Link Units output word can be used as work bits, but unused bits in the output slaves cannot be used as work bits. (3) Unused bits in input word cannot be used as work bits.

Determining the Node Number and Making DIP Switch Settings

Node Number The CompoBus/S I/O Link Unit is a Slave Unit with 8 input bits and 8 output bits. The node number setting is made using the DIP switch; the inputs and outputs share the same node number. The range of possible node number settings is determined by the type of PLC the Master Unit is mounted to and the settings on the Master Unit. For details refer to the CompoBus/S Operation Manual.

Note

(1) The 32 bits each of I/O data are not always transmitted simultaneously. In other words, 32 bits of data transmitted from the Master CPU Unit at the same time will not always reach the CP1L CPU Unit simultaneously, and 32 bits of data transmitted from the CP1L CPU Unit at the same time will not always reach the Master CPU Unit simultaneously. When the 32 bits of input data must be read together, modify the ladder program in the CPU Unit receiving the data. For example, read the input data twice in succession and accept the data only when the two values match. (2) Unused bits in the DeviceNet I/O Link Units output words can be used as work bits if they are not used for output from the slave. (3) Unused bits in input words cannot be used as work bits.

Determining the Node Number and Making DIP Switch Settings

Setting Node Numbers Use rotary switches SW2 and SW3 to set DeviceNet node number. The setting range is from 00 to 63, and 64 to 99 cannot be set. Rotary switch settings go into effect when the power is turned ON.

Setting range: 0 to 63 (Do not set 64 to 99.)

Note

The actual range of node numbers that can be set depends on the type of PLC to which the Master Unit is mounted, and on the Master Unit setting. For details, refer to the DeviceNet DRT1-series Slaves Operation Manual. Setting the DIP Switch (SW1) Used to set the DeviceNet baud rate and the output hold function.

Trial Operation and Debugging


Forced Set/Reset
The CX-Programmer can force-set (ON) or reset (OFF) specified bits in the CIO Area, Auxiliary Area, and HR Area, as well as timer/counter Completion Flags. Forced status will take priority over status output from the program or I/O refreshing. This status cannot be overwritten by instructions, and will be stored regardless of the status of the program or external inputs until it is cleared from the CX-Programmer. Force-set/reset operations are used to force input and output during a trial operation or to force certain conditions during debugging. Force-set/reset operations can be executed in either MONITOR or PROGRAM modes, but not in RUN mode. Note Turn ON the Forced Status Hold Bit (A500.13) and the IOM Hold Bit (A500.12) at the same time to retain the status of bits that have been force-set or reset when switching the operating mode. Turn ON the Forced Status Hold Bit (A500.13) and the IOM Hold Bit (A500.12), and set the Forced Status Hold Bit at Startup parameter in the PLC Setup to retain the status of the Forced Status Hold Bit hold to retain the status of bits that have been force-set or reset when turning OFF the power.

Online Editing
The Online Editing function is used to add to or change part of a program in a CPU Unit directly from the CX-Programmer when the CPU Unit is in MONITOR or PROGRAM mode. This function is designed for minor program changes without stopping the CPU Unit. Online editing is possible simultaneously from more than one computer running the CX-Programmer as long as different tasks are edited.

Online Editing
CX-Programmer

Operating in MONITOR mode.

Program section changed

The cycle time will be increased by from one to several cycle times if the program in the CPU Unit is edited online in MONITOR mode. The cycle time will also be increased to back up data in the flash memory after online editing. The BKUP indicator will be lit during this period and the progress of the backup will be displayed on the CX-Programmer. The increases per cycle are listed in the following table.
CPU Unit CP1L CPU Units Increase in cycle time Online editing 16 ms max. Backup to flash memory 4% of cycle time

There is a limit to the number of edits that can be made consecutively. The actual number depends on the type of editing that is performed, but 40 edits should be used as a guideline. A message will be displayed on the CX-Programmer if the limit is exceeded, and further editing will not be possible until the CPU Unit has completed backing up the data. The length of time that the cycle time is extended due to online editing is almost unaffected by the size of the task program being edited. Precautions The cycle time will be longer than normal when a program is overwritten using Online Editing in MONITOR mode, so make sure that the amount of time that it is extended will not exceed the cycle monitoring time set in the PLC Setup. If it does exceed the monitoring time, then a Cycle Time Over error will occur, and the CPU Unit will stop. Restart the CPU Unit by selecting PROGRAM mode first before changing to RUN or MONITOR mode. Note If the task being edited online contains a block program, then previous execution information, such as Standby (WAIT) or Pause status, will be cleared by online editing, and the next execution will be from the beginning. Online Editing from the CX-Programmer 1,2,3... 1. Display the program section that will be edited. 2. Select the instructions to be edited. 3. Select Program - Online Edit - Begin.

Section 8-2

5. Select Program - Online Edit - Send Changes The instructions will be check and, if there are no errors, they will be transferred to the CPU Unit. The instructions in the CPU Unit will be overwritten and cycle time will be increased at this time. !Caution Proceed with Online Editing only after verifying that the extended cycle time will not adversely affect operation. Input signals may not be read if the cycle time is too long. Temporarily Disabling Online Editing It is possible to disable online editing for specific cycles to ensure response characteristics for machine control in those cycles. Online editing from the CX-Programmer will be disabled for those cycles and any requests for online editing received during those cycles will be held online editing is enables. Online editing is disabled by setting the Online Editing Disable Bit Validator (A527.00 to A527.07) to 5A and then turning ON the Online Editing Disable Bit (A527.09). When these settings have been made and a request for online editing is received, online editing will be put on standby and the Online Editing Wait Flag (A201.10) will be turned ON. When the Online Editing Disable Bit (A527.09) is turned OFF, online editing will be performed, the Online Editing Processing Flag (A201.11) will turn ON, and the Online Editing Wait Flag (A201.10) will turn OFF. When online editing has been completed, the Online Editing Processing Flag (A201.11) will turn OFF. Online editing can also be temporarily disabled by turning ON the Online Editing Disable Bit (A527.09) while online editing is being performed. Here too, the Online Editing Wait Flag (A201.10) will turn ON. If a second request for online editing is received while the first request is on standby, the second request will not be recorded and an error will occur. Online editing can also be disabled to prevent accidental online editing. As described above, disable online editing by setting the Online Editing Disable Bit Validator (A527.00 to A527.07) to 5A and turning ON the Online Editing Disable Bit (A527.09). Enabling Online Editing from the CX-Programmer When online editing cannot be enabled from the program, it can be enabled from the CX-Programmer. If operations continue with online editing in standby status, CX-Programmer may go offline. If this occurs, reconnect the computer to the CPU Unit and turn OFF the Online Edit Disable Bit (A527.09). Note When using automatic transfer from a Memory Cassette at startup, be sure to transfer the data to the Memory Cassette if any changes are made using online editing. If power is turned OFF before the changes are transferred, the data from before online editing was performed will be read from the Memory Cassette. Related Auxiliary Bits/Words

Tracing Data
The Data Trace function samples specified I/O memory data using any one of the following timing methods. It stores the sampled data in Trace Memory, where they can be read and checked later from the CX-Programmer. Specified sampling time (10 to 2,550 ms in 10-ms units) One sample per cycle When the TRACE MEMORY SAMPLING instruction (TRSM(045)) is executed Up to 31 bits and 6 words in I/O memory can be specified for sampling.

Basic Procedure
1,2,3... 1. Sampling will start when the parameters have been set from the CX-Programmer and the command to start tracing has been executed. 2. Sampled data (after step 1 above) will be traced when the trace trigger condition is met, and the data just after the delay (see note 1) will be stored in Trace Memory. 3. Memory data will be sampled until the Trace Memory is full, and then the trace will be ended. Note Delay value: Specifies how many sampling periods to offset the sampling in Trace Memory from when the trace condition is met. The setting ranges are shown in the following table.
No. of words sampled 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 Setting range 1999 to 2000 1332 to 1333 999 to 1000 799 to 800 665 to 666 570 to 571 499 to 500

Positive delay: Store data delayed by the set delay. Negative delay: Store previous data according go to the set delay. Example: Sampling at 10 ms with a 30 ms delay time yields 30 x 10 = 300 ms, so data 300 ms before the trigger will be stored.

Do not use the TRSM(045) instruction in the user program and be sure to set the sampling period higher than 0. A one-cycle data trace will sample I/O refresh data after the end of all cyclic tasks. Do not use the TRSM(045) instruction in the user program and be sure to set the sampling period higher than 0. A sample will be taken once each time the TRACE MEMORY SAMPLING instruction (TRSM(045)) instruction is executed. When more than one TRSM(045) instruction is used in the program, a sample will be taken each time TRSM(045) is executed after the trace trigger condition has been met until trace memory is full.

Error Classification and Confirmation


Errors in CP1L CPU Units can be broadly divided into the following four categories.
Category CPU Error CPU Standby Fatal Error Non-fatal Error Comments A WDT (watchdog timer) error is generated in the CPU Unit, the CPU Unit will malfunction, and operation will stop. The CPU will go on standby because conditions for stating operation have not yet been met. Operation cannot continue. Operation will stop due to a serious problem. A minor problem has occurred. Operation will continue

A fatal error has occurred. Refer to section 9-2-3.

9-2-2

No Operation When Power Is Supplied


First confirm that the POWER indicator (green) is lit.

POWER Indicator Not Lit The power supply may not match the Unit rating, wiring may not be correct, or the Unit may be faulty. 1,2,3... 1. Confirm the Unit rating (i.e., is it 24 VDC or 100 to 240 VAC?) and see if the supply power matches the rating. 2. Check the wiring to see if it is correct and that nothing is disconnected. 3. Check the voltage at the power supply terminals. If the voltage is normal and the POWER indicator is lit, the Unit may be faulty. In that case, replace the Unit. POWER Indicator Turns OFF and ON There may be fluctuations in the power supply voltage, disconnected wiring, or poor contacts. Check the power supply system and wiring. POWER Indicator Lit but No Operation Check the RUN indicator if the POWER indicator is lit but the CPU Unit does not operate. The CPU Unit may be on standby if the RUN indicator is not lit.

Troubleshooting I/O Bus Errors

Section 9-2

An I/O bus error occurs in data transfer between the CPU Units and Units connected to the I/O bus. Cycle the power supply. If operation is not restored when the power supply has been cycled, turn OFF the power supply and check that connections are proper and that there is no damage.
Probable cause An error occurred in data transfer between the CPU Unit and an Expansion Unit or Expansion I/O Unit. Note 0A0A hex will be stored in A404. Possible remedy Try cycling the power supply. If the problem persists, turn OFF the power supply and check the Connecting Cables between the Units to see if they are connected properly. Check the Unit connections to be sure they are ok (e.g., that there is no damage). After correcting the problem, turn ON the power to the Units again.

Too Many I/O Points


The number of CP1W/CPM1A-series Expansion Units and Expansion I/O Units connected exceeds the restriction for the number of Units or words for the system configuration. Turn OFF the power supply and reconfigure the system within the restrictions.
Probable cause The number of CP1W/CPM1A-series Expansion Units and Expansion I/O Units exceeds the restriction. Possible remedy Connect a maximum of three Expansion Units and Expansion I/O Units to the CP1L-M40D@-@ or CP1L-M30D@-@. Connect a maximum of one Expansion Unit or Expansion I/O Unit to the CP1L-L20D@-@ or CP1LL14D@-@.

Program Error
A program error indicates a problem with the user program. Refer to the error information, check the program, and correct the mistakes. Clear the error once the problem has been corrected.
Probable cause Instruction Processing Error If the PLC Setup has been set to stop operation for an instruction error, the Error Flag will be turned ON when an instruction cannot be executed due to a problem in the operand data. Indirect DM Addressing BCD Error If the PLC Setup has been set to stop operation for an indirect DM BCD error, the Access Error Flag will turn ON when the content of an indirectly addressed DM operand is not BCD although BCD mode has been selected. Possible remedy Refer to A298 and A299 (instruction program address when the program fails), check the specifications for the relevant instruction, and set the correct operand data. Alternatively, set the PLC Setup to not stop operation for an instruction error. Refer to A298 and A299 (instruction program address when the program fails), and correctly set the content for the indirectly addressed DM operand (BCD mode) to BCD or change the specified destination. Alternatively, change the indirect addressing to binary mode or set the PLC Setup to not stop operation for an indirect DM addressing BCD error.

479

Troubleshooting
Probable cause Illegal Area Access Error If the PLC Setup has been set to stop operation for an illegal access error, the Access Error Flag will turn ON when an illegal access error has occurred. The following operations are considered illegal access: Reading/writing the parameter area Writing to an area without memory installed Writing to a write-protected area Indirect DM addressing BCD error No END Error This error occurs when there is not an END(001) instruction in the program within a task. Task Error This error is generated by any of the following conditions. 1. There is not an executable cyclic task (active). 2. There is no specified interrupt task when an interrupt is generated (input interrupt, high-speed counter interrupt, scheduled interrupt, or external interrupt). Differentiation Overflow Error Differentiation instructions were repeatedly inserted or deleted using the online editor and the system restriction was exceeded. Illegal Instruction Error Execution of an unexecutable instruction was attempted. For a CPU Unit with 14 or 20 I/O Points, the instruction operand will be given in D10000 to D31999. UM Overflow Error An attempt was made to execute a program that exceeds the user program capacity.

Section 9-2
Possible remedy Refer to A298 and A299 (instruction program address when the program fails) and take corrective actions so that illegal area access errors will not occur. Alternatively, set the PLC Setup so that PLC operation will not stop when an instruction error occurs.

Insert an END(001) instruction at the end of the program allocated to the task stored in A294 (task number when the program fails).

1. Check the properties of the executable cyclic task and set at least one task to start when operation starts. 2. Create a task for the number stored in A294 (task number when the program fails). Change the operating mode to PROGRAM mode and then return to MONITOR mode.

Check the program, correct the problem, and transfer the program to the CPU Unit again.

Transfer the program again using the CX-Programmer.

Error Log

Section 9-3

9-3

Error Log
Each time an error occurs, the CPU Unit stores error information in the Error Log Area of the Auxiliary Area (A100 to A199). The error information includes the error code (stored in A400), error contents, and time that the error occurred. Up to 20 records can be stored in the Error Log. In addition to system-generated errors, the CPU Unit records user-defined errors, making it easier to track the operating status of the system. When more than 20 errors occur, the oldest error data (stored in A100 to A104) is deleted, the 19 errors stored in A105 to A199 shift one record, and the newest record is stored in A195 to A199. The number of records stored in the error log is stored in the Error Log Pointer (A300). The Error Log Pointer is not incremented after 20 records have been stored.

10-1-2 Unit Replacement Precautions


Check the following when replacing any faulty Unit. Do not replace a Unit until the power is turned OFF. Check the new Unit to make sure that there are no errors. If a faulty Unit is being returned for repair, describe the problem in as much detail as possible, enclose this description with the Unit, and return the Unit to your OMRON representative. For poor contact, take a clean cotton cloth, soak the cloth in industrial alcohol, and carefully wipe the contacts clean. Be sure to remove any lint prior to remounting the Unit. Note When replacing a CPU Unit, be sure that not only the user program but also all other data required for operation is transferred to or set in the new CPU Unit before starting operation, including DM Area and HR Area settings. If

Section 10-2

data area and other data are not correct for the user program, unexpected accidents may occur.

10-2 Replacing User-serviceable Parts


The following parts should be replaced periodically as preventative maintenance. The procedures for replacing these parts are described later in this section. Battery (backup for the CPU Units internal clock and RAM) Battery Functions The battery maintains the internal clock and the following data of the CPU Units RAM while the main power supply is OFF. Retained regions of I/O memory (such as the Holding Area and DM Area) If the battery is not installed or battery voltage drops too low, the internal clock will stop and the data in RAM will be lost when the main power supply goes OFF. Battery Service Life and Replacement Period At 25C, the maximum service life for batteries is five years whether or not power is supplied to the CPU Unit while the battery is installed. The batterys lifetime will be shorter when it is used at higher temperatures. The following table shows the approximate minimum lifetimes and typical lifetimes for the backup battery (total time with power not supplied).
Model CP1L-M@@D@-D CP1L-L@@D@-D Approx. Approx. minimum Typical lifetime maximum lifetime lifetime (See note.) (See note.) 5 years 13,000 hours 43,000 hours (approx. 1.5 years) (approx. 5 years)

Note The minimum lifetime is the memory backup time at an ambient temperature of 55C. The typical lifetime is the memory backup time at an ambient temperature of 25C.

Low Battery Indications

Section 10-2

The ERR/ALM indicator on the front of the CPU Unit will flash when the battery is nearly discharged.

ERR/ALM indicator

When the ERR/ALM indicator flashes, connect the CX-Programmer to the peripheral port and read the error messages. If a low battery message appears on the CX-Programmer (see note 1) and the Battery Error Flag (A402.04) is ON (see note 1), first check whether the battery is properly connected to the CPU Unit. If the battery is properly connected, replace the battery as soon as possible. Once a low-battery error has been detected, it will take 5 days before the battery fails assuming that power has been supplied at lease once a day (see note 2). Battery failure and the resulting loss of data in RAM can be delayed by ensuring that the CPU Unit power is not turned OFF until the battery has been replaced. Note 1. The PLC Setup must be set to detect a low-battery error (Detect Low Battery). If this setting has not been made, the BATT LOW error message will not appear on the CX-Programmer and the Battery Error Flag (A402.04) will not go ON when the battery fails. 2. The battery will discharge faster at higher temperatures, e.g., 4 days at 40C and 2 days at 55C. Replacement Battery Use the CJ1W-BAT01 Battery Set. Be sure to install a replacement battery within two years of the production date shown on the batterys label.

Replacement Procedure Use the following procedure to replace the battery when the previous battery has become completely discharged. You must complete this procedure within five minutes after turning OFF the power to the CPU Unit to ensure memory backup. 1. We recommend replacing the battery with the power OFF to prevent the CPU Units sensitive internal components from being damaged by static electricity. The battery can be replaced without turning OFF the power supply. To do so, always touch a grounded piece of metal to discharge static electricity from your body before starting the procedure. 2. After replacing the battery, connect the CX-Programmer and clear the battery error.

Note

493

Replacing User-serviceable Parts


Procedure 1,2,3... 1. Turn OFF the power to the CPU Unit.

Section 10-2

or If the CPU Unit has not been ON, turn it ON for at least five minutes and then turn it OFF. Note If power is not turned ON for at least five minutes before replacing the battery, the capacitor that backs up memory when the battery is removed will not be fully charged and memory may be lost before the new battery is inserted. 2. Open the compartment on the CPU Unit and carefully draw out the battery. 3. Remove the battery connector. 4. Connect the new battery, place it into the compartment, and close the cover.

!WARNING Never short-circuit the battery terminals; never charge the battery; never disassemble the battery; and never heat or incinerate the battery. Doing any of these may cause the battery to leak, burn, or rupturing resulting in injury, fire, and possible loss of life or property. Also, never use a battery that has been dropped on the floor or otherwise subject to shock. It may leak. !Caution You must complete this procedure within five minutes after turning OFF the power to the CPU Unit to ensure memory backup. If the procedure is not completed within 5 minutes, data may be lost. !Caution UL standards require that batteries be replaced by experienced technicians. Always place an experienced technician in charge or battery replacement.

494

Replacing User-serviceable Parts

Section 10-2

!Caution Turn ON the power after replacing the battery for a CPU Unit that has been unused for a long time. Leaving the CPU Unit unused again without turning ON the power even once after the battery is replaced may result in a shorter battery life. Note The battery error will automatically be cleared when a new battery is inserted.

Information on the 20 most recent errors can be stored. Each error record occupies 5 words; the function of these 5 words is as follows: 1) Error code (bits 0 to 15) 2) Error contents (bits 0 to 15) 3) Minutes (bits 8 to 15), Seconds (bits 0 to 7) 4) Day of month (bits 8 to 15), Hours (bits 0 to 7) 5) Year (bits 8 to 15), Month (bits 0 to 7) Errors generated by FAL(006) and FALS(007) will also be stored in this Error Log. The Error Log Area can be reset from the CX-Programmer. If the Error Log Area is full (20 records) and another error occurs, the oldest record in A100 to A104 will be cleared, the other 19 records are shifted down, and the new record is stored in A195 to A199. ON for one cycle after PLC operation begins (after the mode is switched from PROGRAM to RUN or MONITOR, for example). ON for one cycle when step execution is started with STEP(008). This flag can be used for initialization processing at the beginning of a step. When a task switches from WAIT or INI to RUN status, this flag will be turned ON within the task for one cycle only. The only difference between this flag and A200.15 is that this flag also turns ON when the task switches from WAIT to RUN status. ON when a task is executed for the first time. This flag can be used to check whether the current task is being executed for the first time so that initialization processing can be performed if necessary.

Appendix E
Memory Map PLC Memory Addresses
PLC memory addresses are set in Index Registers (IR00 to IR15) to indirectly address I/O memory. Normally, use the MOVE TO REGISTER (MOVR(560)) and MOVE TIMER/COUNTER PV TO REGISTER (MOVRW(561)) instructions to set PLC memory addresses into the Index Registers. Some instructions, such as DATA SEARCH (SRCH(181)), FIND MAXIMUM (MAX(182)), and FIND MINIMUM (MIN(183)), output the results of processing to an Index Register to indicate an PLC memory address. There are also instructions for which Index Registers can be directly designated to use the PLC memory addresses stored in them by other instructions. These instructions include DOUBLE MOVE (MOVL(498)), some symbol comparison instructions (=L, <>L, <L, >L, <=L, and >=L), DOUBLE COMPARE (CMPL(060)), DOUBLE DATA EXCHANGE (XCGL(562)), DOUBLE INCREMENT BINARY (++L(591)), DOUBLE DECREMENT BINARY (L(593)), DOUBLE SIGNED BINARY ADD WITHOUT CARRY (+L(401)), DOUBLE SIGNED BINARY SUBTRACT WITHOUT CARRY (L(411)), SET RECORD LOCATION (SETR(635)), and GET RECORD LOCATION (GETR(636)). The PLC memory addresses all are continuous and the user must be aware of the order and boundaries of the memory areas. As reference, the PLC memory addresses are provided in a table at the end of this appendix. Note Directly setting PLC memory addresses in the program should be avoided whenever possible. If PLC memory addresses are set in the program, the program will be less compatible with new CPU Unit models or CPU Units for which changes have been made to the layout of the memory.

Memory Configuration
There are two classifications of the RAM memory (with battery backup) in a CP-series CPU Unit. Parameter Areas: These areas contain CPU Unit system setting data, such as the PLC Setup, CPU Bus Unit Setups, etc. An illegal access error will occur if an attempt is made to access any of the parameter areas from an instruction in the user program. I/O Memory Areas: These are the areas that can be specified as operands in the instructions in user programs.

Note

(1) Four-wire connections must be used for RS-422A/485 connections with Host Link communications. (2) Resistance ON indicates the terminating resistance must be turned ON. (3) 5-V power indicates that a 5-V power supply is required for the Link Adapter. Refer to the Link Adapter manual for details. A 5-V power supply is not required for a Link Adapter connected to an RS-232C Option Board mounted on the CPU Unit because power is supplied from pin 6 of the connector. (4) The maximum cable length for RS-232C is 15 m. The RS-232C standard, however, does not cover baud rates above 19.2 Kbps. Refer to the manual for the device being connected to confirm support.

RS-232C and RS-422A/485 Wiring


Recommended RS-232C Wiring Examples
It is recommended that RS-232C cables be connected as described below especially when the Option Board is used in an environment where it is likely to be subject to electrical noise. 1. Always use shielded twisted-pair cables as communications cables.
Model UL2464 AWG28x5P IFS-RVV-SB (UL product) AWG28x5P IFVV-SB (non-UL product) UL2464-SB (MA) 5Px28AWG (7/0.127) (UL product) CO-MA-VV-SB 5Px28AWG (7/0.127) (non-UL product) Manufacturer Fujikura Ltd. Hitachi Cable, Ltd.

2. Combine signal wires and SG (signal ground) wires in a twisted-pair cable. At the same time, bundle the SG wires to the connectors on Option Board and the remote device. 3. Connect the shield of the communications cable to the Hood (FG) terminal of the RS-232C connector on the Option Board. At the same time, ground the ground (GR) terminal of the CPU Unit to 100 or less. 4. A connection example is shown below. Example: Twisted-pair Cable Connecting SD-SG, RD-SG, RTS-SG, and CTS-SG Terminals in Toolbus Mode

XM2S-0911-E

Note The Hood (FG) is internally connected to the ground terminal (GR) on the CPU Unit. Therefore, FG is grounded by grounding the ground terminal (GR) on the power supply terminal block. Although there is conductivity between the Hood (FG) and pin 1 (FG), connect the Hood (FG) to the shield because the Hood (FG) has smaller contact resistance with the shield than pin 1 (FG), and thus provides better noise resistance.
Ground to 100 or less. RS-232C Option Board

Connections to Serial Communications Option Boards Recommended RS-422A/485 Wiring Examples


Use the following wiring methods for RS-422A/485 to maintain transmission quality. 1. Always use shielded twisted-pair cables as communications cables.
Model CO-HC-ESV-3Px7/0.2 Manufacturer Hirakawa Hewtech Corp.

Appendix F

2. Connect the shield of the communications cable to the FG terminal on the RS-422A/485 Option Board. At the same time, ground the ground (GR) terminal of the CPU Unit to 100 or less. Note Always ground the shield only at the RS-422A/485 Option Board end. Grounding both ends of the shield may damage the device due to the potential difference between the ground terminals.
