SAFETY CAUTIONS (You must read these cautions before using the product)

In connection with the use of this product, in addition to carefully reading both this manual and the related manuals indicated in this manual, it is also essential to pay due attention to safety and handle the product correctly. The safety cautions given here apply to this product in isolation. For information on the safety of the PC system as a whole, refer to the CPU module User's Manual. These SAFETY CAUTIONS are classified into two grades: "DANGER" and "CAUTION".

Safety caution given when incorrect handling could result in hazardous @ DANGER situations involving the possibility of death or serious injury. A CAUTION Safety caution given when incorrect handling could result in hazardous

Note that, depending on the circumstances, failing to follow a A CAUTION may also have very serious consequences. Both of these classes of safety caution are very important and must be observed. Store this manual carefully in a place where it is accessible for reference whenever necessary, and forward a copy of the manual to the end user.

situations involving the possibility of moderate or light injury or damage to property.

[System Design Precautions]

@ DANGER

Safety circuits should be installed external to the programmable controller to ensure that the system as a whole will continue to operate safely in the event of an external power supply malfunction or a programmable controller failure. Erroneous outputs and operation could result in an accident. 1) The following circuitry should be installed outside the programmable

controller: Interlock circuitry for the emergency stop circuit protective circuit, and for reciprocal operations such as forwardheverse, etc., and interlock circuitry for upper/lower positioning limits, etc., to prevent machine damage.

processing is stopped and all outputs are switched OFF. This happens in the following cases: 0 When the power supply module's over-current or over-voltage protection

0 When an error (watchdog timer error, etc.) is detected at the PC CPU by

Some errors, such as input/output control errors, cannot be detected by the PC CPU, and there may be cases when all outputs are turned ON when such errors occur. In order to ensure that the machine operates safely in such cases, a failsafe circuit or mechanism should be provided outside the programmable controller. Refer to the CPU module user's manual for an example of such a failsafe circuit.

3) Outputs may become stuck at ON or OFF due to an output module relay or transistor failure. An external circuit should therefore be provided to monitor output signals whose incorrect operation could cause serious accidents.

2) When the programmable controller detects an abnormal condition,

the. self-diagnosis function.

A circuit should be installed which permits the external power supply to be switched ON only after the programmable controller power has been switched ON. Accidents caused by erroneous outputs and motion could result if the external power supply is switched ON first.

When a data link communication error occurs, the status shown below will be established at the faulty station. In order to ensure that the system operates safely at such times, an interlock circuit should be provided in the sequence program (using the communication status information). Erroneous outputs and operation could result in an accident. 1) The data link data which existed prior to the error will be held. 2) All outputs will be switched OFF at MELSECNET ( 1 1 , /B, / lo) remote I/O

3) At the MELSECNET/MINI-S3 remote I/O stations, all outputs will be

switched OFF or output statuses will be held, depending on the E.C. mode setting .

[System Design Precautions ]

A CAUTION

0 Do not bundle control lines or communication wires together with main circuit or power lines, or lay them close to these lines. As a guide, separate the lines by a distance of at least 100 mm, otherwise malfunctions may occur due to noise. When file register R that are outside the range are read, e.g. by a MOV instruction, the file register data will become FFFFH and use of this data will cause malfunctions. Take care not to use file registers that are outside the range when designing programs. For details on instructions, refer to the Programming Manual.

[Cautions on Mounting]

/f\ CAUTION

Use the PC in an environment that conforms to the general specifications in the manual. Using the PC in environments outside the ranges stated in the general specifications will cause electric shock, fire, malfunction, or damage toldeterioration of the product.

Make sure that the module fixing projection on the base of the module is properly engaged in the module fixing hole in the base unit before mounting the module. Failure to mount the module properly will result in malfunction or failure, or in the module falling.

Extension cables should be securely connected to base unit and module connectors. Check for loose connection after installation. A poor connection could result in contact problems and erroneous inputs/outputs.

Plug the memory card firmly into the memory card mounting connector. Check for loose connection after installation. A poor connection could result in erroneous operation.

[Cautions on Wiring]

@ DANGER

0 Switch off the external power supply before staring installation and wiring work. Failure to do so could result in electrical shocks and equipment damage.

0 After installation and wiring is completed, be sure to attach the terminal cover before switching the power ON and starting operation. Failure to do so could result in electrical shocks.

A CAUTION

Be sure to ground the FG and LG terminals, carrying out at least class 3 grounding work with a ground exclusive to the PC. Otherwise there *ill be a danger of electric shock and malfunctions.

Carry out wiring to the PC correctly, checking the rated voltage and terminal arrangement of the product. Using a power supply that does not conform to the rated voltage, or carrying out wiring incorrectly, will cause fire or failure.

Outputs from multiple power supply modules should not be connected in parallel. Failure to do so could cause the power supply module to overheat, resulting in a fire or module failure.

Tighten the terminal screws to the stipulated torque. Loose screws will cause short circuits, fire, or malfunctions,

Make sure that no foreign matter such as chips or wiring offcuts gets inside the module. It will cause fire, failure or malfunction.

Connectors for external connections should be crimped, pressure welded, or soldered in the correct manner using the correct tools. For details regarding crimping and pressure welding tools, refer to the i npu t/ou tpu t module user’s manual. A poor connection could cause shorts, fire, and erroneous operation.

[Cautions on Startup and Maintenance]

@ DANGER

Do not touch terminals while the power is ON. This will cause malfunctions.

Make sure that the battery is connected properly. Do not attempt to charge or disassemble the battery, do not heat the battery or place it in a flame, and do not short or solder the battery. Incorrect handling of the battery can cause battery heat generation and ruptures which could result in fire or injury.

Switch the power off before cleaning or re-tightening terminal screws. Carrying out this work while the power is ON will cause failure or malfunction of the module.

I /T\ CAUTION

In order to ensure safe operation, read the manual carefully to acquaint yourself with procedures for program changes, forced outputs, RUN, STOP, and PAUSE operations, etc., while operation is in progress. Incorrect operation could result in machine failure and injury.

Do not disassemble or modify any module. This will cause failure, malfunction, injuries, or fire.

Switch the power OFF before mounting or removing the module. Mounting or removing it with the power ON can cause failure or malfunction of the module.

When replacing fuses, be sure to use the prescribed fuse. A fuse of the wrong capacity could cause a fire.

[Cautions on Disposal]

/T\ CAUTION

0 Dispose of this product as industrial waste.

2. QnACPU GENERAL DESCRIPTION MELSEC-QnA

2. QnACPU GENERAL DESCRIPTION

2.1 General Description

The QnACPU is a PC CPU which is both easier to use and more sophisti- cated than the previous ACPU. In particular, programming efficiency is en- hanced by structured programs and instruction definition with macro instructions. QnACPU offers the following features:

0 High-speed Processing

(1 ) Increased processing speed for both basic and application instructions realizes a further dramatic jump in operation speed (approximately 3-times increase for PCMIX value ratio using Mitsubishi AnU). This realizes dramatic reductions in tact time and allows high-speed

. processing of complex data.

Transfer instructions 0.90 ps 0.225 ps (4 x)

PCMlX value

1.20

PCMlX value: The average number of instructions executed in 1 ps.

High Memory Capacity Serial execution of 124 k steps maximum in internal memory (4-times increase) Maximum memory card capacity: 2 M B x 2 (4-times increase)

(2) The highly integrated IC memory card allows large volumes of data to be managed (2 MB x 2 max.).

IC mem ry maximum 2 M B x 2

1) The application of highly integrated IC memory cards has significantly increased the capacity of the expansion data memory (approximately 5-times increase using Mit- subishi AnUCPU). This makes it easier to handle large volumes of data.

2) The cards can also be used to save multiple programs and store comments.

multiple smaller programs. Dividing the program by programmer, by function, or by process, allows multiple programmers to simultaneously develop a program and simplifies re-using the program. When a program is modified, only the relevant file needs to be changed, which means that unwanted effects on other parts of the program can be minimized. To simplify program maintenance, a comment and time-stamp is appended to each

(2) Debugging by multiple people

Debugging is possible using multiple peripheral devices connected to a single QnACPU.

(a) If each peripheral device debugs a separate file name, monitoring, testing, and online program change (write during RUN) can be conducted freely, without affecting any other peripheral device. For example, i f peripheral device A debugs "Machining program" and peripheral device B debugs "Assembly program."

(b) Also, online program change (write during RUN) is possible for the same file from multiple peripheral devices. A program pointer must be pre-designated for the online program change (write during RUN) programs.

Cause

Corrective action

3.3.4 Corrective action when an error occurs

The system floppy disk or hard disk is damaged.

Replace the system floppy disk or hard disk.

(1) Corrective action if the GPP functions cannot be installed.

Cause

A message during installation indicates that the floppy disk is not a master floppy disk.

Incorrect directory designation.

Cause I Installation from a copied floppy disk.

Cause

Corrective action

Functions were installed with the copy command instead of the INSTHD command.

The system floppy disk for the GPP functions is copy-protected. Correct installation is not possible from a copied floppy disk. Reinstall from the master floppy disk.

Installation stops and a message indicates that insufficient free space remains on the hard disk.

Cause 1 The hard disk is too full to install the GPP functions.

Installation of the GPP functions requires at least 8 MB free space on the hard disk. Move user data to floppy disks to ensure sufficient free space on the hard disk. Corrective action

Directory designation cannot contain special symbols, such as: "\", ":", or "2".

Designate the directory using alphanumeric characters. Corrective action

(2) Corrective action if the GPP functions will not start up

The functions cannot be correctly installed using the copy command. Install the GPP functions again by executing the "INSTHD" command. Corrective action

A message indicates that the main memory area is insufficient on start-up, or system goes out of control during GPP function operation.

Insufficient free space in main memory (540 k byte min.) I The "BUFFERS" item is set to 20 or less in CONFIG.SYS Cause

Corrective action

Use the MEM or CHKDSK command to check the main memory free space.

3.4.2 Programming in ladder mode

The procedure for programming in the ladder mode is shown below.

(1) About the program

The program created to automatically run the conveyor is shown in Fig. 3.2.

(2) Description of operation

The operation of the program to automatically run the conveyor is outlined below. When the workpiece (pallet) stops in front of the conveyor, a warning buzzer sounds for 3 seconds and the conveyor automatically starts. The conveyor stops after it has transported 6 products onto the workpiece. The workpiece is automatically transferred to the next process, the products unloaded, and then returns to the position in front of the conveyor. The flowchart for this procedure appears as follows.

, . . . .

The QnACPU handles sequence programs as files, so that sequence programs can be divided up into control processes for program design. This section describes this method of programming.

4.2.1 File structure

(1) Program execution can be matched to the type of control.

Programs can be selected from four types: initial execution, scan execution, low-speed execution, and standby. These programs can be set to run when required, thereby reducing the scan time of the permanently executing scan program.

{a) Initial execution (initial program)

A program executed once only when the QnACPU is set to RUN. Used for initialization.

(b) Scan execution (scan program)

A permanently executing program. Equivalent to a conventional program running from step 0 to END. Can include sub-routine programs and interrupt programs.

(c) Low-speed execution (low-speed program)

A program which is not entirely executed each scan but which is executed over several scans, using the constant scan surplus time or a set time. Used for programs run at low frequency, such as scheduled inspection programs.

(d) Standby (standby program)

A program which is executed when a certain start condition is met, such as a sub-routine program or an interrupt program. Used when the sub-routine programs and interrupt programs are held as library data and are handled separately to the main program.

Power ON

4-2


(2) File Management

The sequence program and other data handled by the QnACPU is managed as files. Whereas programs were conventionally handled as main programs and sub-programs, the QnACPU allows structured programming, such that each type of program can be broken down for individual programmers or processes.

4.3 Easy Programming

4.3.1 Direct access of special-function module buffer memory as devices

The AGPU used FROM/TO instructions for buffer memory read and write operat ions. The QnACPU simplifies sequence programs by allowing direct access of a special-function module buffer memory as devices.

Example Accessing buffer memory addresses 0 and 10 of the special-function module mounted at X/Y40.

4.3.2 Accessing word devices as bit units and using differential contacts

Bit designation can be used for real numbers, character strings, and word devices.

4 Onlv the designated bit of DO is turned ON.

(1) Bit designation

Handles a part of word device data as a bit device.

Example

When DO, bit 3 is ON, R3, bit 5 turns ON.

(R3.5 4 (2) Differential contact

Uses a leading edge or trailing edge as an input device.

Example At the leading edge of XO, the 16 bits of data, MO to M15, are transferred to DO. r

4.4 Convenient Functions When Using QnACPU

4.4.1 Allocation of optimal device points range for the system used

The number of device points was fixed with the conventional ACPU. However, the QnACPU allows allocation of the optimal device points range to suit the system used. The settings are shown in the table below.

During boot operation the ACPU memory contents are cleared but for the QnACPU, program files are written to a free area of internal memory. Set the boot options as shown below to clear the internal memory. In this case, the parameters are also cleared, so make sure that the CPU system setting switch 1 does not select the internal memory (drive 0) as the enabled parameter drive.

The temperature sensor measures the cabin temperature in the range from 0 OC to 50 OC.

Converts the measured temperature to a voltage between 0 V and 10 V.

converter

converter module

Inverter

Converts the 0 V to 10 V voltage to a digital value from 0 to 2000.

Digital values are written to the DIA converter module to stop the extractor fan when the temperature is less than 20 "C, run it at high setting when the temperature exceeds 30 "C, and at low setting when the temperature is between 20 "C and 30 "C.

The digital value is converted to a voltage between 0 V and 5 V and sent to the inverter.

This voltage drives the extractor fan.

5.1 Programming Before 110 Module Configuration is Determined

MELSEC-QnA

By adding labels to the sequence program, a QnACPU program can be created before the I/O module configuration is determined.

5.1.1 Programming using labels

The example shown below is used to explain programming with labels.

When the conveyor RUN switch is pressed, the warning buzzer sounds for 3 seconds and the conveyor automatically starts. The conveyor stops when the system detects that 6 products have been transported.
