[Design Precautions]

WARNING Configure safety circuits external to the programmable controller to ensure that the entire system

operates safely even when a fault occurs in the external power supply or the programmable controller. Failure to do so may result in an accident due to an incorrect output or malfunction. (1) Emergency stop circuits, protection circuits, and protective interlock circuits for conflicting

operations (such as forward/reverse rotations or upper/lower limit positioning) must be configured external to the programmable controller.

(2) When the programmable controller detects an abnormal condition, it stops the operation and all outputs are: Turned off if the overcurrent or overvoltage protection of the power supply module is activated. Held or turned off according to the parameter setting if the self-diagnostic function of the CPU

module detects an error such as a watchdog timer error. (3) All outputs may be turned on if an error occurs in a part, such as an I/O control part, where the

CPU module cannot detect any error. To ensure safety operation in such a case, provide a safety mechanism or a fail-safe circuit external to the programmable controller. For a fail-safe circuit example, refer to "General Safety Requirements" in the MELSEC iQ-R Module Configuration Manual.

(4) Outputs may remain on or off due to a failure of a component such as a relay and transistor in an output circuit. Configure an external circuit for monitoring output signals that could cause a serious accident.

In an output circuit, when a load current exceeding the rated current or an overcurrent caused by a load short-circuit flows for a long time, it may cause smoke and fire. To prevent this, configure an external safety circuit, such as a fuse.

Configure a circuit so that the programmable controller is turned on first and then the external power supply. If the external power supply is turned on first, an accident may occur due to an incorrect output or malfunction.

For the operating status of each station after a communication failure, refer to manuals relevant to the network. Incorrect output or malfunction due to a communication failure may result in an accident.

When connecting an external device with a CPU module or intelligent function module to modify data of a running programmable controller, configure an interlock circuit in the program to ensure that the entire system will always operate safely. For other forms of control (such as program modification, parameter change, forced output, or operating status change) of a running programmable controller, read the relevant manuals carefully and ensure that the operation is safe before proceeding. Improper operation may damage machines or cause accidents.

[Design Precautions]

[Design Precautions]

WARNING Especially, when a remote programmable controller is controlled by an external device, immediate

action cannot be taken if a problem occurs in the programmable controller due to a communication failure. To prevent this, configure an interlock circuit in the program, and determine corrective actions to be taken between the external device and CPU module in case of a communication failure.

Do not write any data to the "system area" and "write-protect area" of the buffer memory in the module. Also, do not use any "use prohibited" signals as an output signal from the CPU module to each module. Doing so may cause malfunction of the programmable controller system. For the "system area", "write-protect area", and the "use prohibited" signals, refer to the user's manual for the module used.

If a communication cable is disconnected, the network may be unstable, resulting in a communication failure of multiple stations. Configure an interlock circuit in the program to ensure that the entire system will always operate safely even if communications fail. Failure to do so may result in an accident due to an incorrect output or malfunction.

To maintain the safety of the programmable controller system against unauthorized access from external devices via the network, take appropriate measures. To maintain the safety against unauthorized access via the Internet, take measures such as installing a firewall.

CAUTION Do not install the control lines or communication cables together with the main circuit lines or power

cables. Keep a distance of 100mm or more between them. Failure to do so may result in malfunction due to noise.

During control of an inductive load such as a lamp, heater, or solenoid valve, a large current (approximately ten times greater than normal) may flow when the output is turned from off to on. Therefore, use a module that has a sufficient current rating.

After the CPU module is powered on or is reset, the time taken to enter the RUN status varies depending on the system configuration, parameter settings, and/or program size. Design circuits so that the entire system will always operate safely, regardless of the time.

Do not power off the programmable controller or reset the CPU module while the settings are being written. Doing so will make the data in the flash ROM undefined. The values need to be set in the buffer memory and written to the flash ROM again. Doing so also may cause malfunction or failure of the module.

When changing the operating status of the CPU module from external devices (such as the remote RUN/STOP functions), select "Do Not OPEN in Program" for "Open Method Setting" in the module parameters. If "OPEN in Program" is selected, an execution of the remote STOP function causes the communication line to close. Consequently, the CPU module cannot reopen the line, and external devices cannot execute the remote RUN function.

[Installation Precautions]

[Installation Precautions]

[Wiring Precautions]

WARNING Shut off the external power supply (all phases) used in the system before mounting or removing the

module. Failure to do so may result in electric shock or cause the module to fail or malfunction.

CAUTION Use the programmable controller in an environment that meets the general specifications in the Safety

Guidelines included with the base unit. Failure to do so may result in electric shock, fire, malfunction, or damage to or deterioration of the product.

To mount a module, place the concave part(s) located at the bottom onto the guide(s) of the base unit, and push in the module until the hook(s) located at the top snaps into place. Incorrect interconnection may cause malfunction, failure, or drop of the module.

When using the programmable controller in an environment of frequent vibrations, fix the module with a screw.

Tighten the screws within the specified torque range. Undertightening can cause drop of the screw, short circuit, or malfunction. Overtightening can damage the screw and/or module, resulting in drop, short circuit, or malfunction.

When using an extension cable, connect it to the extension cable connector of the base unit securely. Check the connection for looseness. Poor contact may cause malfunction.

When using an SD memory card, fully insert it into the SD memory card slot. Check that it is inserted completely. Poor contact may cause malfunction.

Securely insert an extended SRAM cassette into the cassette connector of the CPU module. After insertion, close the cassette cover and check that the cassette is inserted completely. Poor contact may cause malfunction.

Do not directly touch any conductive parts and electronic components of the module, SD memory card, extended SRAM cassette, or connector. Doing so can cause malfunction or failure of the module.

WARNING Shut off the external power supply (all phases) used in the system before installation and wiring.

Failure to do so may result in electric shock or cause the module to fail or malfunction. After installation and wiring, attach the included terminal cover to the module before turning it on for

operation. Failure to do so may result in electric shock.

[Wiring Precautions]

CAUTION Individually ground the FG and LG terminals of the programmable controller with a ground resistance

of 100 ohms or less. Failure to do so may result in electric shock or malfunction. Use applicable solderless terminals and tighten them within the specified torque range. If any spade

solderless terminal is used, it may be disconnected when the terminal screw comes loose, resulting in failure.

Check the rated voltage and signal layout before wiring to the module, and connect the cables correctly. Connecting a power supply with a different voltage rating or incorrect wiring may cause fire or failure.

Connectors for external devices must be crimped or pressed with the tool specified by the manufacturer, or must be correctly soldered. Incomplete connections may cause short circuit, fire, or malfunction.

Securely connect the connector to the module. Poor contact may cause malfunction. Do not install the control lines or communication cables together with the main circuit lines or power

cables. Keep a distance of 100mm or more between them. Failure to do so may result in malfunction due to noise.

Place the cables in a duct or clamp them. If not, dangling cable may swing or inadvertently be pulled, resulting in damage to the module or cables or malfunction due to poor contact. Do not clamp the extension cables with the jacket stripped. Doing so may change the characteristics of the cables, resulting in malfunction.

Check the interface type and correctly connect the cable. Incorrect wiring (connecting the cable to an incorrect interface) may cause failure of the module and external device.

Tighten the terminal screws or connector screws within the specified torque range. Undertightening can cause drop of the screw, short circuit, fire, or malfunction. Overtightening can damage the screw and/or module, resulting in drop, short circuit, fire, or malfunction.

When disconnecting the cable from the module, do not pull the cable by the cable part. For the cable with connector, hold the connector part of the cable. For the cable connected to the terminal block, loosen the terminal screw. Pulling the cable connected to the module may result in malfunction or damage to the module or cable.

Prevent foreign matter such as dust or wire chips from entering the module. Such foreign matter can cause a fire, failure, or malfunction.

A protective film is attached to the top of the module to prevent foreign matter, such as wire chips, from entering the module during wiring. Do not remove the film during wiring. Remove it for heat dissipation before system operation.

Programmable controllers must be installed in control panels. Connect the main power supply to the power supply module in the control panel through a relay terminal block. Wiring and replacement of a power supply module must be performed by qualified maintenance personnel with knowledge of protection against electric shock. For wiring, refer to the MELSEC iQ-R Module Configuration Manual.

For Ethernet cables to be used in the system, select the ones that meet the specifications in the user's manual for the module used. If not, normal data transmission is not guaranteed.

3 FUNCTION LIST The following table lists the functions of the A/D converter module. For further details on the function, refer to the following. MELSEC iQ-R Analog-Digital Converter Module User's Manual (Application)

Item Description Range switching function Allows switching the input range of an analog input for each channel. Switching the range makes it

possible to change the input signal characteristics.

A/D conversion enable/disable setting function Controls whether to enable or disable the A/D conversion for each channel. Disabling the A/D conversion on unused channels reduces the A/D conversion cycles.

A/D conversion method

Sampling processing Executes A/D conversion of analog input values sequentially and stores the digital output values to the buffer memory areas.

Averaging processing

Time average Executes A/D conversion for a set time, and calculates the average of the total value excluding the maximum value and the minimum value to store it in the buffer memory area. The number of processing times within the set time changes depending on the number of channels where the A/D conversion is enabled.

Count average Executes A/D conversion for a set number of times, and calculates the average of the total value excluding the maximum value and the minimum value to store it in the buffer memory area. The time taken to store the average value obtained by the average processing in the buffer memory area changes depending on the number of channels where the A/D conversion is enabled.

Moving average Averages digital output values taken at every sampling cycle for a specified number of times, and stores the averaged value in the buffer memory area. Because the target range for averaging processing is moved in response to every sampling processing, the latest digital output value can be obtained.

Primary delay filter Performs digital output where the transient noise of analog input is smoothed depending on the set time constant, and stores the value in the buffer memory area.

Scaling function Performs scale conversion on digital output values within a specified range between a scaling upper limit value and a scaling lower limit value. This function reduces the time and effort to create a program of the scale conversion.

Shift function Adds (shifts) a set conversion value shift amount to a digital output value and stores the result in the buffer memory area. The digital operation value reflects the change in the conversion value shift amount on a realtime basis. Therefore, fine adjustment can be easily performed when the system starts.

Digital clipping function Fixes a possible digital operation value to the maximum digital output value or the minimum digital output value when an input current or voltage exceeds the input range.

Difference conversion function Subtracts a difference conversion reference value from a digital operation value and stores the acquired value in the buffer memory area.

Maximum value/minimum value hold function Stores the maximum and minimum values of digital operation values to the buffer memory area for each channel.

Alert output function

Process alarm Outputs an alert when a digital operation value enters the preset alert output range.

Rate alarm Outputs an alert when the change rate of a digital output value is equal to or more than the rate alarm upper limit value, or the rate is equal to or less than the rate alarm lower limit value.

Input signal error detection function Detects an analog input value that is above or below the set range.

Logging function Logs (records) digital output values or digital operation values. 10000 points of data can be logged for each channel.

Logging read function Makes it possible to store more than 10000 points of logging data without stopping logging by transferring the device data to the file register of the CPU module during logging. This function reduces the takt time in a test demanding high-speed conversion.

Interrupt function Executes an interrupt program of the CPU module when an interrupt factor such as an input signal error or alert output is detected.

Inter-module synchronization function Allows the A/D conversion values to be held simultaneously among multiple modules in which the inter-module synchronization function is active.

Error history function Records up to the 16 errors and alarms that occurred in the A/D converter module to store them into the buffer memory area.

Event history function Collects occurred errors and alarms, and performed operations in the A/D converter module as event information into the CPU module.

Offset/gain setting Corrects errors in digital output values.

Backing up, saving, and restoring offset/gain values Makes it possible to back up, save, and restore the offset/gain values of the user range setting.

Online module change Allows module replacement without stopping the system. For the procedure of the online module change, refer to the following. MELSEC iQ-R Online Module Change Manual

Q compatible mode function Controls an operation state with the buffer memory layout converted to equivalent one of the Q series. This compatibility makes it possible to reuse sequence programs that have exhibited high performance on the Q series analog input modules.

Firmware update function*1 Enables users to update the firmware versions of modules by using firmware update files. (For the firmware update file, please consult your local Mitsubishi representative.) For details on this function, refer to the following. MELSEC iQ-R Module Configuration Manual

6.1 Terminal Blocks

Precautions Tighten the module fixing screws and others within the specified torque range.

*1 The hook on the top of the module allows the module to be fixed to a base unit easily. In a place where there is a lot of vibration, however, fixing with module fixing screws is recommended.

The following table lists an applicable solderless terminal to be connected to the terminal block. When wiring, use the wire and tightening torque applicable to the table. Use UL listed solderless terminals and, for processing, use the tools recommended by their manufacturer. Note that a solderless terminal with an insulation sleeve cannot be used.

APPENDICES Appendix 1 I/O Conversion Characteristics An I/O conversion characteristic of A/D conversion is expressed by the slope of the straight line connecting the offset value and the gain value at the time when an analog signal (voltage or current) from outside the programmable controller is converted to a digital value.

Offset value This value is the analog input value (voltage or current) where the corresponding digital output value is 0.

Gain value This value is the analog input value (voltage or current) where the corresponding digital output value is 32000.

APPX Appendix 1 I/O Conversion Characteristics 41

42

Voltage input characteristics The following shows the list of the analog input ranges and the graphs of each voltage input characteristic, at the voltage input.

*1 Set the offset value and gain value in the user range setting within a range that satisfies the following conditions. If the following conditions are not satisfied, A/D conversion may not be performed properly. Setting range of the offset value and gain value: -10 to 10V ((gain value) - (offset value)) 1.6V

*2 Maximum resolution in the user range setting. *3 When analog input exceeds the range of the digital output value, the digital output value is fixed to the maximum or minimum.

Set values within the practical range of the analog input and digital output at each input range. If the values are out of the range, the resolution and accuracy may not fall within the range of the performance specifications. (Do not use values in the dotted line region in the graph of voltage input characteristics.)

The range of 1 to 5V (extended mode) allows extending the lower limit value of analog input. The upper limit value of analog input cannot be extended.

Do not set the voltage over 15V. Doing so can cause breakdown of the elements.

APPX Appendix 1 I/O Conversion Characteristics

A

Current input characteristics The following shows the list of the analog input ranges and the graph of each current input characteristic, at the current input.

*1 Set the offset value and gain value in the user range setting within a range that satisfies the following conditions. If the following conditions are not satisfied, A/D conversion may not be performed properly. Gain value 20mA, offset value 0mA ((gain value) - (offset value)) 6.1mA

*2 Maximum resolution in the user range setting. *3 When analog input exceeds the range of the digital output value, the digital output value is fixed to the maximum or minimum.

Set values within the practical range of the analog input and digital output at each input range. If the values are out of the range, the resolution and accuracy may not fall within the range of the performance specifications. (Do not use values in the dotted line region in the graph of current input characteristics.)

The range of 4 to 20mA (extended mode) allows extending the lower limit value of analog input. The upper limit value of analog input cannot be extended.

Do not set the voltage over 30mA. Doing so can cause breakdown of the elements.

44 APPX Appendix 2 Accuracy

Appendix 2 Accuracy Accuracy of A/D conversion is determined by the accuracy for the maximum value of digital output value. An input characteristic change through changes of the offset/gain setting or the input range does not sacrifice the accuracy, which is maintained within the described range of the performance specifications. The following graph shows the fluctuation range of accuracy when the range of -10 to 10V is selected. The accuracy is 0.1% (32 digit) at ambient temperature of 255; the accuracy is 0.3% (96 digit) at ambient temperature of 0 to 55 (except for the conditions under noise influence).
