6 QnASCPU Features High speed processing PLC systems will always require faster processing speed because faster processing means shorter production time, more precise control, and better quality in applications. The performance of MSP (Mitsubishi Sequence Processor) has been improved greatly over that of those in the AnA, AnU and AnS series. QnASCPUs are almost 3 times faster than AnUCPUs. Q2ASHCPU (S1) Q2ASCPU (S1) LD X (input) 0.075µs 0.20µs OUT T (timer) 0.60µs 1.06µs MOV 0.225µs 0.60µs µs 2.40µs Note: Processing time varies depending on the type of accessing device. Large built-in memory and optional IC card Each QnASCPU module is equipped with a large built-in memory in addition to approximately 30k word of internal device memory. Additionally, 3 types of memory cards (SRAM, SRAM+EEPROM and SRAM+Flash ROM) are available, increasing the memory to allow for the following functions. Sampling trace, program trace or status latch For use when more than 16 error records are required Storage of device comments in the CPU For use when file register, local device are required in the CPU Program-boot from the IC card in the CPU Store parameters in the IC card Global and local devices MELSEC-QnAS offers a new concept in internal device memory. In support of the multiple programming features of QnAS PLCs, each program module can be installed with its own internal memory bank called a local device. The data of the local device does not influence the results of other program modules, and conversely it is not affected by other modules either. Local devices then can be used freely within program modules. At the same time, global devices with a common memory shared by all the program modules are also available, and can be used for interlocking of program modules. Q2AS Q2ASH Multiple programs Up until now, PLC programs were generally composed of one long program which handled all tasks, but because of PLC s scanning operation and program size, programming and debugging was not easy. Even utilization of a previously made program for another control application was not easy to implement. The QnAS series can handle and execute multiple program modules. At the program design stage, program modules can be created process by process, function by function (e.g. of a machine) or designer by designer for concurrent design. There are many advantages to this approach. Easier to understand because each program module can be made for specific functions and program modules are smaller than one long program. Program merging is not necessary after parallel design of program modules by multiple designers. Easier to make standardized program modules which can be used repeatedly for other similar projects. Saves time for program up/down loading at debugging stage because of smaller program size. Macro command A ladder program block used frequently in a given program can be registered as a macro command and then utilized in any other program any number of times with different input and output devices. Use of this feature eliminates retyping of the same form of ladder block and helps standardize programming. Pre-registered macro command libraries are also available. The macro library software SWMIVD-MSPQ/MSDQ consists of the following macro commands: The special function module library MSPQ comprises ladder program blocks necessary for MELSEC special function modules such as the RS232C interface module. The standard ladder program library MSDQ comprises ladder blocks generally required for machine controls such as on-delay timers and emergency stop detection. 5

7 AnSCPU Features High speed processing Processing speed of AnSHCPUs is up to three or four times faster than their predecessors. Processing speed of a contact command (LD) is now 0.33µs for A1SJHCPU and A1SHCPU, 0.25µs for A2SHCPU or A2SHCPU-S1, and 0.09nS for A2USH-S1CPU. 8k/14k/30k step program and built-in memory Up to 30k step program can be created for A2SHCPU-S1, and stored in the built-in RAM memory with battery backup. 2k step, 8k step and 30k step EEPROM memory cassette options are also available as non-volatile program storage. Control up to 2048 I/O points The number of local I/O points can be controlled, varying from A1SJHCPU s 256 points to A2SHCPU-S1 s 1024 points with up to three extension base units. However, total I/O points including remote I/O through CC-Link or MELSECNET systems is up to 2048 points for any type of AnSHCPU. Compact size High functionality and sequence control performance are integrated in a compact body. Size of an AnSH PLC with 8 I/O modules is 430mm (16.93 inch) 130mm (5.12 inch) 110mm (4.33 inch). SFC language In addition to ladder and list language, AnSHCPUs can also handle SFC Sequential Function Chart language. For sequence control of machines, SFC language is very powerful for standardization of program, easy design and debugging. Compatibility Programs and programming software of AnSCPUs are fully compatible with AnSHCPUs. Power supply, base units, I/O and other special function modules are all compatible with the new CPU modules. CC-Link instructions AnSHCPUs support additional CC-Link instructions. These instructions will replace FROM/TO instructions used for sending and receiving remote I/O data through CC-Link, and give the added advantage of not needing to know the A1SJHCPU integral CPU system The A1SJHCPU is unique in that it incorporates a CPU, power supply and base rack into a single, easy to order package. The A1SJCPU is perfect for small, cost-sensitive applications. Although A1SJHCPU is the least expensive model of the AnS Series, functions and performance of the model are the same as those of A1SHCPU. In addition, all special function modules for A1SHCPU such as analog, positioning, and various network modules can be used for the A1SJHCPU system. 6

8 Power Supply Modules and CPU Base Units A1S61PN, A1S62PN, A1S63P Power Supplies The power supply modules are connected to the incoming power supply and generate the DC 5V that is required by the A1S programmable controllers. They are mounted on the base units in the designated power supply module slot. The DC 5V generated is then passed on to the power rail on the base unit. The input power supply voltage to the module is dependent on the model selected. Input supply voltages available are AC V and DC 24V. Two new modules, A1S61PN and A1S62PN, were designed based on EN and safety aspects of IEC to comply with European Directives.

9 Extension Base Units and Extension Cables A1S52B-S1, A1S55B-S1, A1S58B-S1 A1S65B-S1, A1S68B-S1 There are two different types of extension base units. One which allows for a power supply module, and the other which does not. Selection of which type should be used is dependent on the total 5VDC current consumption made on the power supply in the CPU base unit. If the total demand is lower than the output of the one power supply, then an additional power supply is not required and the more economical extension base can be used. On each end of the base units there is a connector. This is used to interface with the CPU base unit, via an extension cable.

30 CC-Link Easy connection of bit level devices combined with advanced message and data transmission is now a reality with CC-Link, a field network system giving more sophisticated field information control while reducing cabling costs. MELSECNET/10 Master PLC Local PLC CC-Link, 10M bps Pneumatic valve ID system Bar code reader etc. Digital I/O Analog I/O High speed counter positioning etc. Display terminal MELSEC-FX Inverter Servo Control & information For CC-Link system, three types of remote devices are connected as follows: Remote I/O: Field devices which only require ON/OFF control for their function such as digital I/O or pneumatic valves are specified as this type. Only bit data can be communicated with this device type. Remote Device: Field devices which handle register values (numeric data) such as analog I/O and counters are specified as this type. In addition to bit data, register data can also be communicated. Intelligent Remote: This is a device which is allowed to access the master and/or other stations actively for data acquisition and control. Local PLCs, GOTs and programming interface units are specified as this type. 10M bps high speed data transmission CC-Link was developed not only for fast remote I/O control, but also for fast field information control. For this purpose, the transmission speed of CC-Link has been increased to 10Mbps compared to our previous field network system. This high speed performance allows communication of large volumes of data without affecting machine control speed. Personal computer connection The A80BDE-J61BT13 computer board (PCI bus) operates as a local station within CC-Link. This PC board allows both monitoring and testing of CC-Link from a personal computer. Users can develop their own monitor or test software in Visual Basic Ver. 5.0 or Visual C++ Ver Master/local configuration Unlike other field networks, CC-Link can configure masterlocal configuration in addition to master-remote configuration. A local PLC can communicate with the master PLC and other remote stations. Multi-vendor connection Many sensor and actuator vendors have joined the CC-Link partner program for direct connection of their devices with the network. Examples of devices are pneumatic valve, ID controller, bar code reader, robotics, display terminal, temperature controller and measurement sensors. Hot/stand-by master configuration A local PLC in CC-Link system can act as a stand-by master PLC for master PLC redundancy. Because of the increasing importance of filing data, such data should not be lost if the master shuts down. This function for CC-Link system gives a simple and inexpensive solution for redundant systems. On-line I/O replacement 2-piece terminal block construction of remote I/O allows on-line I/O replacement without affecting other remote I/O control. 29

32 CC-Link CC-Link Master/Local Modules Two compact Master/Local modules are now available for the CC-Link system. A1SJ61BT11 is a master module compatible with the AnS series, and A1SJ61QBT11 is for the QnAS series. They both can function either as master or local stations depending on the setting the user selects. Features of master and local stations are as follows: Master station Communicates with remote I/O stations, remote device stations, local stations and intelligent devices Through use of a standby master station, data link communication continues uninterrupted even when an error occurs in the main master station Parameters can be pre-registered in the E 2 PROM memory which makes setup of a master station possible without always specially setting the parameters Local station Communicate by peer-to-peer cyclic transmission between local stations Common features Parameter registration: CC-Link parameters including network parameters and automatic refresh parameters can be set by a peripheral device such as GX Developer with A1SJ61QBT11. With A1SJ61BT11, the same parameters can be set by GX Configurator (or in the sequence program). This function significantly reduces the total program steps required. Automatic refresh: The automatic refresh function not only saves sequence time but also compared with accessing buffer memory with the FROM/TO command, it makes communication setup a cinch. RAS functions: RAS functions, including automatic recovery, link status confirmation and diagnosis, are very useful for debugging and maintenance. 31

42 MELSECNET I/O LINK I/O LINK High speed micro area distribution system No additional program MELSEC-I/O LINK doesn't require any additional knowledge of programming or network parameter configuration. It works just like a standard I/O module programmed with input (X) and output (Y), but actual I/O signals are distributed to remote I/O modules. Up to 128 I/O distribution MELSEC-I/O LINK can control up to 128 I/O points using 8 point input and output composite remote I/O modules, or up to 64 I/O points can be refreshed for remote I/O modules. High speed I/O refresh I/O refresh time of MELSEC-I/O LINK is minimized by high speed communication in order to minimize machine control delay. Max. 128 I/O points can be refreshed in approximately 5.4 ms. Applicable cable Connection by twisted pair cable gives the advantage of low cost in addition to easy wiring. 41

43 MELSECNET I/O LINK Flexible configuration The number of I/O points of the remote I/O modules is kept small so that just the necessary number of I/O signals is distributed to locations where control devices are located. In addition, no terminal resistance requirement and the T shape branch feature give maximum flexibility of configuration and layout. High reliability Bus topology of MELSEC-I/O LINK gives the advantage of high reliability. Shutdown of one remote I/O module doesn't affect the communications of the others.

46 QnAS Series Communication Modules A1SJ71QC24(-R2), A1SJ71QC24N(-R2) Serial Communication modules Features A total of two channels of RS232C, RS422 and RS422/485 communication interface ports Both ports can operate as linked or independently Choice of Dedicated protocol mode, Non-protocol mode, or Bi-directional protocol mode Entire QnA device memory area and program area can be accessed with the dedicated protocol mode User definable frame is automatically added to transmission data Up to 115.2k bps of high speed transmission ASCII/Binary code selection In most cases, ASCII code is used for communicating with PCs, sensors, and serial printers. Included in AJ71QC24 modules, however, is the option to use binary code instead of ASCII for communication with PCs. Since a binary code data frame is half the size of an ASCII code data frame, data transmission time is cut in half. Transparency code: When binary code is used for communication, a transparency code can be registered so that binary data having the same code as a frame termination code can be transmitted. Independent/Link operation Two communication port channels can operate either independently or linked. Independent operation: Communication speed, data format, and protocol can be independently assigned to each channel for different applications. Linked operation: In this mode, data received at Ch1 is retransmitted from Ch2 and data received at Ch2 is retransmitted from Ch1. This mode can be selected when multi-drop PLC control under one PC is required.

52 Programming Software GX Developer (SWMD5C-GPPW-E) MELSEC Programming software GX Developer is a powerful Windows based programming software which replaces the previous DOS version MELSEC MEDOC, GPPA and GPPQ software packages. However, GX Developer is more than just an upgrade. By taking full advantage of the Windows environment and adding many useful functions, the GX Developer programming environment is easy to use and new program development is both fast and efficient. GX Developer supports programming of all current MELSEC PLC CPUs, so project design using a variety of CPU types and series is possible. 51 Programming languages In addition to ladder and list programming languages, SFC (MELSAP2/MELSAP3) is supported. With the Windows environment, all these program types can be created and edited easily with the mouse or keyboard. Easy program creation and editing GX Developer supports standard cut, copy and paste operations. This allows greater ease of use and the ability to edit data in other applications. For instance, comment data can be edited in Word or Excel and directly pasted into the comment edit screen. Full diagnostic capability In the event of an operation error online diagnostics can quickly pin-point the problem. The GX Developer helpfile further assists to resolve hardware and software problems without the need for a manual. CC-Link support Operation monitoring, link status and testing have been enabled with the QnAS/AnS Series. The CC-Link unit s link status and error status can be monitored with the QnAS/AnS Series, and a line test to check for faulty stations can be carried out. Also, the CC-Link personal computer interface board (A80BDE-J61BT13) is also compatible with GX Developer. Backward compatibility GX Developer not only supports downloading existing projects from the PLC CPU but also allows direct conversion of existing DOS based software GPPA, GPPQ and MELSEC MEDOC FXGP (Win) and FXGP (DOS) data. Multi-windows, Multi sessions Use of both multiple windows (e.g. different programs within the same project) and multiple sessions (e.g. more than one iteration of GX Developer running on a single PC) gives greater scope to share common data between program and projects quickly and easily. Also programming productivity is enhanced with this function. For example, a programmer can monitor one project while editing another. Modem function Communication is possible via the A6TEL modem interface unit (AnS Series only) or the Q6TEL modem interface unit (QnA/AnS Series). By using a modem, remote PLCs can be serviced. Software family While GX Developer can be used by itself to create and manage programs and projects, other software packages have been produced to work in conjunction with GX Developer, further enhancing programming and maintainability. GX Simulator (SWMD5C-LLT-E) MELSEC Simulation software Programs can now be tested and checked without the need to download to a CPU. This useful function allows simulation of the sequence program within the Windows environment. Program execution and timing can be easily seen and because the display method is the same as the standard monitoring function in GX Developer, the display format is both familiar and easy to understand. A timing chart can be displayed with the ladder logic test tool function software package allowing program operation to be confirmed graphically.

53 GX Converter (SWMD5C-CNVW-E) MELSEC Data conversion software With this data conversion software package, comments created in CSV format (Text data/excel data (CSV format data) compatible) etc., can be used. By using this data conversion software package, the command lists from the read/write of other formats menu can be used for device comment data. Furthermore, the GX Developer command lists and device comments can be converted and used in the list created by the user. MX Links (SWMD5C-CSKP-E) Basic communication support tool Programming Software Communication with the PLC CPU via a variety of connection methods is supported with the MX Links software tool. PLC data can be collected via RS-232C, RS-422, Ethernet, MELSECNET/10 or CC-Link and used within a personal computer by other applications (e.g. Visual Basic V4.0/5.0/6.0, Visual C++ V4.2/5.0/6.0). A special library of commands, known as the MELSEC data link library, is available to allow the following functions: Function name mdopen mdclose mdsend mdreceive mdrandr mdrandw mddevset mddevrst mdinit mdcontrol mdtyperead MX Monitor (SWMD5C-XMOP-E) Monitoring tool Visual Basic support is further enhanced with the MX Monitor monitoring tool. Acting as a custom tool within Visual Basic (V4.0/5.0/6.0), it is easy to create monitoring screens that will reflect changes of status and data within the connected PLC. Functions such as figure display, value display, level display and trend graph are provided among 23 types of custom controls. A graphical monitoring application can be created just by pasting the MX Monitor controls into a VB form and setting the properties.

54 Programming Software MELSEC MEDOC plus, IEC compatible programming software MELSEC MEDOC plus is the programming software for all MELSEC series PLCs. This software has been developed to improve productivity of programming by incorporation of IEC61131 standards. The requirements to PLC controlled machinery and equipment are becoming more sophisticated. Also, PLC programs are becoming larger and more complicated. This results in a longer time required for PLC programming. In addition, large programs are not only a problem for designers, but also for maintenance people. They have to read and understand large PLC programs. Everybody wants to reduce programming time, and split large programs into several modules for easy understanding. This software, compliant with the IEC61131 standard, provides an environment of structured programming. This allows large programs consisting of several programming modules to be constructed. In addition, compatibility with Windows provides a user-friendly environment. IEC compatible MELSEC MEDOC plus is compatible with the programming methods stated in IEC standards. Functions such as programming language, ladder, instruction list, function block diagram, user defined function, and sequential flow chart are all provided. Because this software is designed to comply with pre-defined standards and programming principles, even users who are not familiar with MELSEC programming and language can use this software with a minimum amount of PLC hardware knowledge. Structured programming Sequential flow chart and task constructions of the software allow a large program consisting of multiple program modules based on each machine operation. Since each program module is fairly small, they are easier to understand and debug than if the entire program had to be dealt with. Compatible CPUs MELSEC MEDOC plus is compatible with the following MELSEC Series PLCs. FX0/FX0N/FX/FX2C/FXU/FX0S/FX2NC/FX2N A1S(S1)/A2S(S1)/A1SH/A1SJH/A2SH(S1) A2AS(S1)/A2AS(S1/S30/S60)/A2A(S1)/A3A A2U(S1)/A3U/A1N/A2N/A3N/A2C Q2A(S1)/Q2AS(S1)/Q3A/Q4A/Q4AR Includes QnA(S)CPU H-types. Hardware requirements Program library Once a program module is created for a project, the module can be stored in a library. When a project is similar to one created previously, pre-made program blocks can be reused. This feature not only reduces program development time, but also reduces programming errors and debugging because proven modules are used. Password protection Multiple levels of passwords can be registered in a program providing protection from tampering. MELSEC compatible mode For users who are familiar with MELSEC programming and want to continue this programming method, the software offers a MELSEC compatible mode. With this mode, the users can write a program with the MELSEC instruction set.
