1.2 Overview
An AH500 series CPU module is a medium type of advanced controller with built-in communication ports. It
provides a strong network function for users, and users can create con nect ion among dev ic es on the network
through software. An AH500 series CPU module also provides structured programming. Users can assign
programs to different tasks, and write a program which is frequently executed in a function block. Besides,
users can choose different programmin g l anguages (instruction lists (IL), structured text s (S T ), ladder diagrams
(LD), sequential function charts (SFC), and function block diagrams (FBD)) dealt with by IEC 61131-3
according to their needs when writing programs. They can create the AH500 hardware co nfiguration by means
of hardware configuration sof t ware. They can also restore or back up a system rapidly through the built-in SD
interface in an AH500 series CPU module. This manual intr o duce s the basi c operat ion of an AH500 system,

1.3 Characteristics
1. High efficiency
AH500 basic series CPU module: A 32-bit high-speed processor is used. The instructions ar e
executed at a speed of 3K steps/ms. (Fifty percent of the instructions are basic instructions, and fifty
percent of the instructions are applied instructions.)
AH500 advance series CPU module: A 32-bit high-speed processor is used. The instructions are
executed at a speed of 12K steps/ms. (Fifty percent of the instructions are basic instructions, and fifty
percent of the instructions are applied instructions.)
2. Supporting more inputs and outputs
The AH500 series CPU module supports up to 4,352 local digital I/O or 544 analog I/O.
A complete AH500 system consists of eight backplanes at most, including a main backplane. Twelve
I/O modules at most can be installed on a main backplane, and eight I/O modules at most can be
installed on an ex tension backplane. Therefore, for the AH500 series CPU, sixty-eight digital
input/output modules at most or sixty-eight analog input/output modules at most can be inst alle d.
Eight RTU modules at most can be installed on the main backplane.

4. Larger program capacity and memory
Program capacity
AH500 basic series CPU module (AHCPU500/510/520/530): 32/64/128/256K steps.
AH500 advanced series CPU module (AHCPU501/511/521/531): 48/96/192/384K steps.
Providing with a wider module selection for users to select a suitable CPU module according to their
program capacity needs.
Memory
AH500 basic series CPU module (AHCPU500/510/520/530): 16/32/64K words of memory and
64/256/512/1024 function blocks to be declared.
AH500 advanced series CPU module (AHCPU501/511/521/531): 24/48/96/128K words of memory
and 512/1024/2048/4096 function blocks to be declared.
5. Devices which can be used conveniently in a program
An AH500 series CPU module is equ ipped w ith devi ces which can be used convenie ntly in a program.
Users can flexibly specify a bit in a word dev ice, e. g. D0.0, X0.0, and Y0.0. Owing to that bit s in a w ord
device can be specified, these bits can function as cont act s and coils.
Users can access the state of DX0.0 and that of DY0.0 in a program. The state of DX0.0 and that of
DY0.0 are not limited by scan time. They are refreshed immediately in a program.

6. Supporting IEC 61131-3
The AH500 series CPU module supports IEC 61131-3.
The programming languages which are supported are instruction lists (IL), structured texts (ST),
ladder diagrams (LD), sequential function charts (SFC), and function block diagrams (FBD).
Users can select a programming language according to their preference and the convenience. The
programming languages supp ort one another so that the pro gr am s writ ten by dif f er ent us er s are
related.
7. Strong function block
Not only the standard IEC61131-3 function blocks are supported, but also the convenient function
blocks provided by Delta Electronics, Inc. are supported. Users can write the program frequently
executed in a function blo ck so that t he program becomes more str u ctur ed a nd can be executed more
conveniently.
The symbol for a function block in a ladder diagram is like an Integrated circuit (IC) in a cir c uit d iagram.
Owing to the fact that the ladder diagram is based on the traditional circuit diagram, the operation of a
function block is quit e similar t o the fun ctio n of an i ntegr ated circuit. Users only need to send the signal
to the corresponding input of the function blo ck, and they ca n receive the signal or state which is
required. During the whole process, users do not need to consider the processing procedure inside
the function block.
1-12
Chapter 1 Introduction
A function block i s a progr am element equipp ed with the oper ation f unction . It is sim ilar to a subro utine,
and is a type of POU (Program Organization Unit). It can not operate by itself, and has to be called
through the program POU. After the related parameters are transmitted, the function defined by a
function block is executed. Besides, the final operation result can be sent to the device or variable
used in the superior POU after the execution of the function block is complete.
The setting of passwords by means of ISPSoft provides the secrecy of function blocks for speci al
businesses. The program inside a function block can not be learned, and the patent of a business will
not be infringed.
8. Task
The programs can be assigned to 283 tasks at most. Among the 288 tasks, 32 tasks are cyclic tasks,
32 tasks are I/O interrupts, 4 tasks are timer interrupts, 2 tasks are communication interrupts, 1 task is
an external 24 V low-voltage interrupt, and 212 tasks are user-defined tasks.
Users can enable and disable a task during the execution of a program by means of TKON and
TKOFF.
9. Increasing the efficiency of configuring the hardware through an USB cable and ISPSoft
The AH500 series CPU module provides a standard USB 2.0 interface. USB 2.0 increases the data
transfer rate, and decreases the time it takes to download the program, monitor the program and
configure the hardware. Besides, users do not need to buy a communication cable for the CPU
module. They can use a general USB cable to connect to the AH500 series CPU module.

and COM2.
AHCPU500/501/510/511/520/521/530/531-EN provides one DB9 serial control interface, i.e. COM.
Users can set the DB9 serial control interface to RS-232, RS-485, or RS-422 according to the
application environment. The data transfer rate can be increased from 9600 bps to 1 Mbps.

13. Hot swap
The AH500 series I/O modules support the on-line uninterruptible hot swap. When the system runs,
users can replace the module which breaks down without disconnecting the module. After the module
is replaced, the new module runs normally. Users do not need to set the module manually or switch
the state.
14. Supporting the on-line debugging mode
After a single instruction step has been complete, or after a breakpoint is specified, users can easily
find the bug in the program by means of the on-line debugging mode supported by the AH500 series
CPU module.
If users want to enter the debugging mode, the CPU module must run. After users enable the on-line
monitoring function, they have to click
language to programming language, but the same operat io n appl ies t o the se programming languages.
For the AH500 series PLC, structured texts do not support the debugging mode, and sequential
function charts support the de bugging mode during the action and the transiti on.
Step 1: Setting the PLC to RUN
