PLUS+1® Mobile Machine Modules are designed to provide flexible, expandable, powerful and cost
effective total machine management systems for a wide variety of vehicle applications.
These modules communicate with one another and other intelligent systems over a machine Controller
Area Network (CAN) data bus.
PLUS+1® controller products utilize modular designs wherever possible. This modularity extends to
product housings, connectors and control circuitry.
PLUS+1® hardware products are designed to be equally effective in a distributed CAN system, with
intelligence in every node, or as stand-alone control for smaller machine systems.
PLUS+1® Compliant systems are incrementally expandable: additional modules can be easily added to
the machine CAN bus to increase system capabilities or computational power.
Six standard housings, 12, 18, 24, 38, 50, and 88 pin, cover this product line.

Each PLUS+1® module input pin supports one of the above functional types. For pins with multiple
functions, input configurations are user programmable using PLUS+1® GUIDE templates.
DIN
Digital inputs (DIN) connected to PLUS+1® dedicated digital input pins are debounced in software. Digital
input debounce is defined as an input being in a given state for three samples before a state change is
reported. The sample time is a function of application loop time.
Multifunction pins that are configured to be Digital input (DIN) are subject to the same update rates as
the Analog input (AIN) function for that pin. Debounce is not used, as hysteresis is built into the function.
The time to recognize a transition is dependent on the timing of the switch activation and the sample
rate.

read as high if the voltage is greater
than 4.15 Vdc.
Module analog input offset error can be 80 counts out of 4096 (12 bit resolution). Therefore, the
minimum voltage that a module will read at the 0 to 5.25 VDC range is 105 mV. The minimum voltage that
a module will read at the 0 to 36 VDC range is 703 mV.
The input offset error is a function of component tolerances and can vary from one module to the next.
When an input value is used in an algorithm where the offset error could impact the control strategy, the
way the signal is acquired and the need to calibrate should be considered.
A/D refresh rate
Analog to Digital (A/D) refresh rates for individual PLUS+1® MC0XX-0XX family modules and expansion
modules are listed in the following table.
A/D channels are sampled at 25 kHz and 64 samples are taken to build an average value. This results in a
refresh rate of 2.56 ms for channels directly measured. All internal current feedback channels are
refreshed at the 2.56 ms rate.
Some PLUS+1® MC0XX-0XX family modules A/D channels are shared. Each of the shared channels have
eight multiplexed analog inputs. Each multiplexed input is serviced every 20.48 ms. Update rates for
specific analog input pins are found in the following table. Update rates for input expander modules are
dependent on the CAN message frequency selected in the application program.

When a PLUS+1® module input pin is configured in the temperature/rheostat mode, the input has a 1.33
kΩ pull up resistor to +5 Vdc. It will source up to 3.75 mA current to an external load (RL) which then can
be measured. The equation for relating AD counts to a given load is: AD counts = (4096*RL) / (RL + 1330).
This calculation is solved internally and the ohms value is available for the programmer. The following
chart shows the relationship between AD counts and load resistance in ohms.

Potential for IX modules to not go online. If voltage is applied to an IX module input pin prior to the
module being powered on, there is a possibility that the module CPU will not power up. The module is
not damaged and will power up and operate normally once power is removed from the input pins. It is
recommended that either the IX module’s 5 Vdc sensor power be used to power sensors or that power is
removed from the input pins until the module is powered up.

Warning
Unintended movement of the machine or mechanism may cause injury to the technician or bystanders.
DOUT and HDOUT digital outputs do not have an internal feedback to the PLUS+1® module kernel. To
protect against unintended movement, if the application requires fault detection, an external feedback
using an AIN configured pin must be used.
External feedback is required if the actual output is to be read by the PLUS+1® Service Tool.
All other output types have internal feedback to the PLUS+1® module kernel that provide pin fault and
status information that can be read directly by the application and the PLUS+1® Service Tool.
PWMOUT/DOUT/PVGOUT
All PLUS+1® module proportional outputs are Pulse Width Modulated (PWM). PWM frequency is software
adjustable using PLUS+1® GUIDE. A low frequency dither may also be added with software to some
outputs (see individual module API specifications for PWM outputs that support dither). There are two
modes of PWM operation: open loop and closed loop (current control).
In open loop mode, current can be sourced or sunk (all modules are limited to 8 amps sinking), but the
output is a PWM duty cycle. Current feedback may be monitored in open loop mode, but the output is a
constant voltage, not a constant current. PVG valves may be driven with open loop PWM.
In closed loop mode, current is sourced and a constant current is maintained by the module’s operating
system using internal current feedback. Load impedance must not exceed 65 ohms.
In closed loop mode, the maximum current is limited by measuring the feedback current. There is no
thermal protection. If the maximum current is exceeded, the controller kernel will shut down the output
and latch it. The kernel also limits how quickly the output can be repowered (250 ms). The output cannot
be reset until the command goes to 0 or False (if configured as a digital output).
Proportional outputs that are used as a digital sinking output have a potential for a leakage current of up
to 5 mA when off.
Refer to individual module data sheets for the maximum allowable output current for each PLUS+1
module.

HPWMOUT/DOUT
High Current Pulse Width Modulated (HPWMOUT/DOUT).
High current proportional outputs are unique to the MCO38-010 controller. These outputs are PWM, with
PWM frequency user-configurable using PLUS+1® GUIDE.
The MC038-010 has two types of high current PWM outputs:
•
Paired bi-directional PWMs (10 A) that can be configured as either H bridges or independent outputs.
•
Sourcing only PWMs (one 10 A and six 6 A).
See the product data sheet and API documents for pair assignments.
All high current proportional outputs are operated as open loop. The controller kernel does, however,
monitor current for circuit protection, but there is no current feedback to the application. The output is a
constant voltage and not a constant current. PWM outputs are hardware protected from short or over
current.

output pins and a separate dedicated power supply for the DSP. Each output pin is associated with a
specific power supply plane. Refer to the controller data sheets for a map of outputs and their associated
power plane.
The controller DSP will be powered if power is supplied to any one of the controller’s power planes.
All PLUS+1® modules have CAN ports that conform to CAN 2.0B specifications, including CAN shield.
CAN1 port and CAN2 port on MC050-155/15B controllers cannot be used to download PLUS+1® GUIDE
application programs.
Specifications for terminating resistor
Each end of the main backbone of the CAN bus must be terminated with an appropriate resistance to
provide correct termination of the CAN_H and CAN_L conductors. This termination resistance should be
connected between the CAN_H and CAN_L conductors.

Notes on CAN Bus installation
Total bus impedance should be 60 Ω.
The CAN transceiver will be damaged by any voltage outside of allowable range, (-7 to +36 Vdc), even
with a very short pulse.
If using shielded cable, the shield must be grounded to the machine ground at one point only; preferably
at the mid-point of the CAN bus. Each PLUS+1® module CAN shield pin must be connected to the cable
shield.
Expansion module CAN Bus loading
System designers incorporating PLUS+1® expansion modules in their applications should be aware of
PLUS+1® CAN bus loading and controller memory usage during system design. Each expansion module is
associated with a PLUS+1® controller and uses part of the controller's memory resources for inter-module
communications. The following table can be used to estimate system CAN bus loading and the memory
impact of I/O modules on their associated controller.
Estimated usage of memory and communication resources
PLUS+1® modules are designed to operate with a nominal 9 to 36 Vdc power supply.
The modules will survive with full functionality if the supply voltage remains below 36 Vdc.

Caution
PCB damage may occur.
To prevent damage to the module all module power supply + pins must be connected to the vehicle
power supply to support advertised module maximum output current capacity. DO NOT use module
power supply + pins to supply power to other modules on a machine.
MC038-010 power supply
The MC038-010 controller’s power supply design recommendations must be followed:
•
Power supply to MC038-010 controller’s output power planes (C1-p36 to C1-p38) must be wired
directly to the vehicle battery (see MC038-010 sleep mode on page 22) and the wiring runs must be
kept as short as possible.
•
Power supply to the controller’s DSP (C1-p2) must be wired separately from the power supply to the
controller’s output power planes.
•
Do not connect any other PLUS+1® controllers to the power supply to MC038-010 controller’s output
power planes.
MC038-010 sleep mode
Sleep mode is unique to the MC038-010 controller. This feature gives OEM designers the ability to
implement automotive-like features in their machine control system design. If the sleep mode feature is
not implemented, this controller has the same operating characteristics as any other PLUS+1® controller.
When used as a sleep mode controller, supply power to the MC038-010 is connected directly to the
battery. Sleep mode initiation is defined by the controller’s application software: PLUS+1® GUIDE
programmers define the conditions under which the controller is to put to sleep. When in sleep mode,
controller outputs are set to zero, sensor power supply is off and the controller consumes a small amount
of current.
Controller sleep mode current consumption
Supply voltageSleep mode current consumption
12 Vdc0.14 mA
24 Vdc0.28 mA
Battery power must be supplied to designated wake-up digital inputs, since the controller’s 5 Vdc
regulated power supply is not available when the controller is in sleep mode.
Either of two conditions will wake up the controller:
•
Switching any of the designated wake-up digital inputs (DIN) in the PLUS+1® GUIDE application, to
high
•
Cycling all input power to the controller
The following input pins may be designated as wake-up digital inputs:
Wake-up pin thresholdVdc236To wake up by cycling input power.
Wake-up pin thresholdVdc4.536To wake up by digital input.
Wake-up time delayms250500
Sensor power supply ratings
PLUS+1® modules that support sensor inputs are provided with dedicated, software adjustable, regulated
sensor power supply and ground pins. Refer to individual product data sheets for sensor power supply
current ratings.
The sensor power is nominally 5 Vdc, unless otherwise noted on the product data sheet.

EEPROM write/erase ratings
To prevent unexpected memory writes, care must be taken to ensure memory with a high number of
read/write cycles is either U32 or S32 data types.
Write/erase cycles
DescriptionMinimumMaximumComment
EEPROM write/erase cycles1 million
EEPROM used in MC050-055/05B controllers is rated for 1 million read/write cycles per sector. Sector size
is 32 bits. When a value is written to EEPROM, all 32 bits in a particular sector are always written,
regardless of the size of the size of the saved value. If the value being saved in a sector is less than 32 bits
(such as U8, S16, BOOL) adjacent bits in the same EEPROM sector are rewritten with their previous value.
The implication of this memory property is that if two values are being written to the same memory
sector, the useful life of the sector is determined by the value being written most frequently. If that value
exceeds 1 million read/write cycles, all values in the sector may be compromised if the useful life is
exceeded.
Minimum valid over entire operating temperature
range.
Vault memory
Some variants of PLUS+1® modules have 2 Mbyte of serial flash vault memory (also referred to as
application logging memory).
Application developers can use this memory to log machine event data and use the PLUS+1® Service Tool
to extract the logged data. As there is no real time clock on PLUS+1® modules, vault memory is not time
stamped.
Accessing non-volatile or application log memory can delay the service tool scan.
FRAM memory
Write/erase cycles
DescriptionMinimum Maximum Comment
FRAM write/erase cycles100 trillion
Minimum valid over entire operating
temperature range.
FRAM used in the MC050-055/05B controller, is rated for 100 trillion read/write cycles per sector. Sector
size is 32 bits. When a value is written to FRAM, all 32 bits in a particular sector are always written,
regardless of the size of the saved value. If the value being saved in a sector is less than 32 bits (such as.
U8, S16, BOOL, etc) adjacent bits in the same FRAM sector are rewritten with their previous value. The
implication of this memory property is that if two values are being written to the same memory sector,
the useful life of the sector is determined by the value being written most frequently. If that value
exceeds 100 trillion read/write cycles, all values in the sector may be compromised if the useful life is
exceeded.

PLUS+1® MC0XX-0XX 12, 24, 38, and 50 pin modules can be mounted in one of three ways:
•
End (bulkhead) installation
•
Up to 3 units stacked on one another
•
Individually side mounted
HMC-211-0XX modules are designed for panel mounting only.
MC088-XXX modules are designed for bulkhead mounting only.
Care must be taken to insure that the module connector is positioned so that moisture drains away from
the connector.
If the module is side or stack mounted, provide a drip loop in the harness. If the module is mounted
vertically, the connector should be on the bottom of the module.
Provide strain relief for mating connector wires.
Caution
Module damage may occur.
Use caution when installing modules. Due to the size of the mating connector wire bundle, it is possible
to twist off the end cap of the module if excessive pressure is applied during the installation of harness
strain relief.
It is recommended that a diagnostic connector be installed on machines that are controlled by PLUS+1
modules. The connector should be located in the operator's cabin or in the area where machine
operations are controlled and should be easily accessible.
Communication (software uploads and downloads and service and diagnostic tool interaction) between
PLUS+1® modules and personal computers is accomplished over the vehicle CAN network. The diagnostic
connector should tee into the vehicle CAN bus and have the following elements:
•
CAN +
•
CAN -
•
CAN shield
Grounding
Proper operation of any electronic control system requires that all control modules including displays,
microcontrollers and expansion modules be connected to a common ground. A dedicated ground wire
of appropriate size connected to the machine battery is recommended.
Hot plugging
Machine power should be off when connecting MC050-055/05B modules to mating connectors.

Machine wiring guidelines
Warning
Unintended movement of the machine or mechanism may cause injury to the technician or bystanders.
Improperly protected power input lines against over current conditions may cause damage to the
hardware. Properly protect all power input lines against over-current conditions. To protect against
unintended movement, secure the machine.
Caution
Unused pins on mating connectors may cause intermittent product performance or premature failure.
Plug all pins on mating connectors.
•
Protect wires from mechanical abuse, run wires in flexible metal or plastic conduits.
•
Use 85˚ C (185˚ F) wire with abrasion resistant insulation and 105˚ C (221˚ F) wire should be
considered near hot surfaces.
•
Use a wire size that is appropriate for the module connector.
•
Separate high current wires such as solenoids, lights, alternators or fuel pumps from sensor and other
noise-sensitive input wires.
•
Run wires along the inside of, or close to, metal machine surfaces where possible, this simulates a
shield which will minimize the effects of EMI/RFI radiation.
•
Do not run wires near sharp metal corners, consider running wires through a grommet when
rounding a corner.
•
Do not run wires near hot machine members.
•
Provide strain relief for all wires.
•
Avoid running wires near moving or vibrating components.
•
Avoid long, unsupported wire spans.
•
Ground electronic modules to a dedicated conductor of sufficient size that is connected to the
battery (-).
Power the sensors and valve drive circuits by their dedicated wired power sources and ground
returns.
•
Twist sensor lines about one turn every 10 cm (4 in).
•
Use wire harness anchors that will allow wires to float with respect to the machine rather than rigid
anchors.
Machine welding guidelines
High voltage from power and signal cables may cause fire or electrical shock, and cause an explosion if
flammable gasses or chemicals are present.
Disconnect all power and signal cables connected to the electronic component before performing any
electrical welding on a machine.
The following is recommended when welding on a machine equipped with electronic components:
•
Turn the engine off.
•
Remove electronic components from the machine before any arc welding.
•
Disconnect the negative battery cable from the battery.
•
Do not use electrical components to ground the welder.
•
Clamp the ground cable for the welder to the component that will be welded as close as possible to
the weld.
Warning
PLUS+1® USB/CAN Gateway
Communication (software uploads and downloads and service and diagnostic tool interaction) between
PLUS+1® modules and a personal computer (PC) is accomplished using the vehicle's PLUS+1® CAN
network.
The PLUS+1® CG150-2 USB/CAN gateway provides the communication interface between a PC USB port
and the vehicle CAN bus. When connected to a PC, the gateway acts as a USB slave. In this configuration,
all required electrical power is supplied by the upstream PC host. No other power source is required.
Refer to the PLUS+1® GUIDE Software User Manual, AQ152886483724, for gateway set-up information.
Refer to the CG150-2 USB/CAN Gateway Data Sheet, AI152986480800, for electrical specifications and
