•Timers

• Digital and analog memory markers

• Inputs and outputs, according to the device type

What IDEC SmartRelay can do for you

IDEC SmartRelay offers solutions for domestic and

installation engineering applications such as stairway

lighting, external lighting, sun blinds, shutters, shop window

lighting and more; switch cabinet engineering, as well as for

mechanical and apparatus engineering such as gate control

systems, air-conditioning systems, rand ainwater pumps.

IDEC SmartRelay can also be implemented for special

control systems in conservatories or greenhouses, for

control signal processing and, by connecting a

communication module such as an AS-i module, for

distributed local controlling of machines and processes.

Special versions without operator panel and display unit are

available for series production applications in small machine,

apparatus, switching cabinet and installation engineering.

Getting started with IDEC SmartRelay

2 IDEC SmartRelay Manual

Which devices are available?

IDEC SmartRelay Base is available in two voltage classes:

• Class 1  24 V, i.e. 12 V DC, 24 V DC, 24 V AC

• Class 2 > 24 V, i.e. 100...240 V AC/DC

IDEC SmartRelay Base is available in two versions:

• With display: 8 inputs and 4 outputs

• Without display (”IDEC SmartRelay Pure”): 8 inputs and

4 outputs

Each version is integrated into four subunits, is equipped

with an expansion interface and Text Display interface and

provides 39 pre-configured standard and special function

blocks for the creation of your circuit program.

Which expansion modules are available?

• IDEC SmartRelay digital modules are available for

operation with 12 V DC, 24 V AC/DC and 100...240 V AC/

DC, and are equipped with four inputs and four outputs.

• IDEC SmartRelay analog modules are available for

operation with 24 V DC and some with 12 V DC,

depending on the specific module. Each is equipped with

two analog inputs or two analog outputs.

The digital/analog modules are integrated in two or four

subunits. Each one is equipped with two expansion

interfaces for connecting additional modules.

Which display modules are available?

• IDEC SmartRelay Base with display

• Text Display

Getting started with IDEC SmartRelay

IDEC SmartRelay Manual 3

Features of the Text Display

The Text Display is available with the FL1E series. It

provides an additional display that is wider than the Base

module. It has four function keys that you can program in

your circuit program as inputs. Like the IDEC SmartRelay

Base module, it has four cursor keys, an ESC key and an OK

key that you can also program in your circuit program and

use for navigation on the Text Display.

You can create and download a power-up screen for the

Text Display from WindLGC. This screen displays briefly

when you initially power on the Text Display. You can also

upload the power-up screen from the Text Display to

WindLGC.

The menus for the Text Display are shown in Appendix

section

D.2. You configure the settings for the Text Display

independently from the IDEC SmartRelay Base module. The

settings can be different.

Which communication modules are available?

• IDEC SmartRelay communication module (CM) AS

interface, which is described in more detail in a separate

documentation.

The communication module has four virtual inputs and

outputs, and acts as an interface between an AS-

Interface system and an IDEC SmartRelay system. The

module enables four data bits to be transferred from the

IDEC SmartRelay base module to the AS-Interface

system and vice versa.

Getting started with IDEC SmartRelay

4 IDEC SmartRelay Manual

It’s your choice

The various IDEC SmartRelay Base versions, expansion

modules, Text Display and communication modules offer

you a highly flexible and adaptive system to suit your specific

tasks.

The IDEC SmartRelay system offers you many solutions

such as for small domestic installations, simple automation

tasks, and even complex engineering tasks involving its

integration into a bus system (e.g. communication module

AS interface).

Note

IDEC SmartRelay base module may only be equipped with

expansion modules of the same voltage class. Mechanical

encoding pins in the housing prevent you from connecting devices

of a different voltage class.

Exception: The left-hand interface of an analog module or

communication module is galvanically isolated.

This type of expansion module can therefore be connected to

devices of a different voltage class. See also Chapter 2.1.

A Text Display, if used, can be connected only to an FL1E IDEC

SmartRelay base module.

Each IDEC SmartRelay base module supports the following

connections for the creation of the circuit program, regardless of the

number of connected modules:

• Inputs 11 to I24

• Analog inputs AI1 to AI8

• Outputs Q1 to Q16

• Analog outputs AQ1 and AQ2

• Memory Markers M1 to M27:

- M8: Startup marker

- M25: Backlight flag: IDEC SmartRelay Display

- M26: Backlight flag: Text Display

- M27: Message text character set flag

• Analog Memory Markers AM1 to AM6

• Shift register bits S1 to S8

• 4 cursor keys

• 16 blank outputs X1 to X16
