Caution notices are used where inattention might cause personal injury or damage to equipment.

Caution

• Read the SmartAXIS Pro/Lite User’s Manual to ensure correct operation before starting installation, wiring, operation, maintenance, and

inspection of the SmartAXIS.

• All SmartAXIS modules are manufactured under IDEC’s rigorous qu ality c ontrol sys tem, but users must add a backup or f ailsafe pr ovision to th e

control system when using the SmartAXIS in applications w here hea vy damage or personal injury may be cause d, in case the SmartA XIS should fail.

• In this user’s manual, safety precautions are categorized in order of importance:

• The SmartAXIS is not designed for use in medical equipment, nuclear power, railways, aviation, passenger vehicle equipment, or similar

applications requiring a high degree of reliability and safety. The SmartAXIS should not be used for such applications.

• When using the SmartAXIS in applications (n ot descri bed abo ve) that require a high degree of reliability in terms of functional it y an d pre cision ,

appropriate measures such as failsafe mechanisms and redundant mechanisms must be taken for the system containing the SmartAXIS.

• Emergency stop and interlocking circuits must be configured outside the SmartAXIS.

• If relays or transistors in the Sm artAXIS output circuits sh ould fail, outputs ma y remain at on or off state . For output signa ls which may cause

serious accidents, configure monitor circuits outside the SmartAXIS.

• The SmartAXIS self-diagnostic f unct ion ma y dete ct inte rna l circ uit or pr ogram errors, stop programs, and turn outpu ts o f f. Configure circuits

so that the system containing the SmartAXIS is not jeopardized when outputs turn off.

• Turn off power to the SmartAXIS before installation, removal, wiring, maintenance, and inspection of the SmartAXIS. Failure to turn power off

may cause electrical shocks or fire hazard.

• Special expertise is required to install, wire, program, and operate the SmartAXIS. People without such expertise must not use the SmartAXIS.

Introduction

This chapter describes SmartAXIS functions and system configuration examples. The SmartAXIS is available in three types: the SmartAXIS Lite, the SmartAXIS Pro, and the SmartAXIS Touch. The SmartAXIS Lite is equipped with the same various control and communication functions as a PLC. In addition to the functions of the SmartAXIS Lite, the SmartAXIS Pro is equipped with an LCD and operation buttons on the front of the module. The SmartAXIS Touch is equipped with the HMI functions of an operator interface and PLC control functions.

This document describes the SmartAXIS Lite and Pro. Unless otherwise specified, SmartAXIS refers to the SmartAXIS Lite and Pro. For the SmartAXIS Touch, refer to the SmartAXIS Touch User's Manual.

About the SmartAXIS

The SmartAXIS is a small-size programmable controller that is fully equipped with powerful functions and various communication functions. You can select the type of SmartAXIS best-suited for your applications, in such ways as the inclusion of the display function, the type of power supply, and the number of inputs and outputs.

The SmartAXIS Lite is equipped with basic functions. The SmartAXIS Pro adds to the functionality of the SmartAXIS Lite and is equipped with an LCD and operation buttons on the module, enabling independent monitor and operation functions.

The SmartAXIS supports 100 to 240V AC and 24V DC power supplies. SmartAXIS with Ethernet port (24-, 40-, 48-I/O types) can expand the number of inputs and outputs for a maximum of 90 inputs and a maximum of 54 outputs using the remote I/O function.

User programs can be created using WindLDR, the PLC programming softwa re. The SmartAXIS supports ladder programs and function block programs. Ladder programs for FT1A are compatible with other IDEC

PLCs including MicroSmart and MicroSmart Pentra, so you can make use of existing software assets.

Type Numbers

The notation for SmartAXIS part numbers is as follows.

Special Functions

This section describes the functions of the SmartAXIS.

I/O Related Functions

Catch Input

The catch input receives short input pulses from sensors without regard to the scan time. A maximum of 6 catch inputs can be used.

Input Filter

The input filter can be adjusted, according to the width of input signals, to reject input noises. Selectable input filter v alues to pass input signals are 0ms, and 3 through 15ms in 1ms increments. The input filter rejects inputs shorter than the selected input filter value minus 2ms. This function is useful for eliminating input noises and chatter in limit switches.

Interrupt Input

The interrupt input can be used to call an interrupt program to respond to an external input that requires a response faster than the scan time. A maximum of six interrupt inputs can be used. This can only be used when ladder program is selected as the programming language.

Stop and Reset Inputs

Stop input is a function to stop SmartAXIS operation. Reset input is a function to stop SmartAXIS operation and clear device values. Any input terminal on the SmartAXIS can be designated as a stop or reset input to control the SmartAXIS operation.

Remote I/O

When the number of SmartAXIS inputs and outputs is insufficient, the number of inputs and outputs can be expanded to a maximum of 192 points by connecting additional SmartAXIS as remote I/O slaves over Ethernet. With the remote I/O function, the analog inputs on the SmartAXIS that are connected as remote I/O slaves can also be used.

Analog Input

Analog input of 0 to 10V DC can be converted to a digital value of 0 to 1000. A maximum of eight inputs can be used as analog inputs (not including remote I/O slaves analog inputs).

Forced I/O

The inputs and outputs of the SmartAXIS can be forced on or off. This function can be used to check the I/O wiring or the user program operation.

Pulse I/O Functions

High-speed Counter

This function counts high-speed pulse inputs that cannot be measured in normal user program processing. Use this function for applications such as positioning control with a rotary encoder or motor control. The SmartAXIS can use single-

phase high-speed counters and two-phase high-speed counters. A maximum of six single-phase high-speed counters and a maximum of two two-phase high-speed counters can be used simultaneously.

Example: Controlling a motor by counting two-phase pulse input with a high-speed counter

The user program in the SmartAXIS can be protected against reading and/or writing by including a password in the user program. This function is effective for security of user programs.

“Keep” or “Clear” Designation of SmartAXIS Data

Internal relays, shift register bits, counter current values, and data register values can be designated to be kept or cleared when the SmartAXIS is powered down. All or a specified range of these devices can be designated as keep or clear types.

RUN/STOP Selection at Startup when “Keep” Data is Lost

When the backup battery is dead, all data to be kept are lost. The user can select whether the SmartAXIS starts to run or not to prevent undesirable operation at the startup.

Log Data

Device values of the SmartAXIS can be saved as CSV files on the SD memory card. The DLOG instruction saves device values to the SD memory card. The TRACE instruction accumulates device values at each scan and saves them to the SD memory card at the desired timing.

Constant Scan Time

The variations in scan time that occur when the user program is running can be made constant.

Timer Interrupt

The timer interrupt can be used to call an interrupt program at a predetermined interval of time without being affected by the scan time. This can only be used when ladder program is selected as the programming language.

Securing the Panel Attachment USB Extension Cable

Using the panel attachment USB extension cable*1 makes it possible to perform maintenance on a SmartAXIS installed in a control panel from the surface of the panel. When using the panel attachment USB extension cable, we recommend securing it to the USB port cover with a cable tie

This section describes the procedure to secure the USB extension cable to the USB cover.

1. Open the SmartAXIS USB port cover and plug the panel attachment USB extension cable into the USB port.

2. Wrap the cable tie around the USB port cover and the panel attachment USB extension cable.

so that it does not come loose from the SmartAXIS.

3. The cable tie can also be inserted through the holes on the USB port cover.

4. Tighten the loop until it is the suitable size and trim the excess cable tie using wire cutters.

Note 1: We recommend the panel attachment USB extension cable (part no.: HG9Z-XCE21). Note 2: HellermanTyton cable tie T18R-1000 is recommended.

Whether to start or stop the SmartAXIS when the SmartAXIS is powered up after the "keep" data in the RAM has been lost can be specified.

Whether to start or stop the SmartAXIS regardless of the M8000 status when the SmartAXIS is powered up can be specified.

Whether to clear or keep the device values, such as counter current values, when the SmartAXIS starts running can be specified.

The high-speed counters can be used to count input pulses f rom rotary encoders or proximity switches regardless of the scan time.

The catch input can be used to receive short pulses from sensors regardless of the scan time.

When a quick response to an external input is required, such as in positioning control, the interrupt in pu t ca n ca ll a su br o u tin e t o e xecute an interrupt program.

The pulse frequency of input signals to input terminals can be counted regardless of the scan time.

The input filter rejects short input pulses when the SmartAXIS is used with input signals containing noises.

Analog voltage inputs, such as inputs from pressure sensors , can be r ead and stored in special data registers as digital values.

When executing the same program repeatedly regardless of the scan time is required, the timer interrupt can call a subroutine at specified time interval.

The inputs or outputs of the SmartAXIS can forcibly be turned on or off regardless of the actual inputs and outputs status.

Communication mode and parameters for each communication port can be configured for the SmartAXIS to communicate with external devices.

The user program in a memory cartridge can be downloaded to the ROM in the SmartAXIS when the SmartAXIS is powered on.

DLOG and TRACE instructions/FBs can save the devic e v alues in CSV files and store those files in an SD memory card inserted to the SmartAXIS.

Run/Stop Selection at Memory Backup Error

Start control special internal relay M8000 maintains its status when the SmartAXIS is powered down. After the SmartAXIS has been off for a period longer than the battery backup duration, the data designated to be maintained during power failure is lost. The Run/Stop Selection at Memory Backup Error dialog box is used to select whether to start or stop the SmartAXIS when attempting to restart operation after the “keep” data in the SmartAXIS RAM has been lost.

When memory backup error occurs, Run/Stop Selection at Memory Backup Error is more pre ferre d than Run/Stop Selection at Power Up.

When a built-in lithium battery is fully charged, data of internal relays, shift registers, counters, and data registers stored in the RAM are maintained for approximately 30 days.

Since this setting relates to the user program, the user program must be downloaded to the SmartAXIS after changing this setting.

Keep Designation for Internal Relays, Shift Registers, Counters, and Data Registers

The statuses of internal relays and shift register bits are usually cleared at startup. It is also possible to designate all or a block of consecutive internal relays or shift register bits as “keep” types. Counter current v alues and data register values are usually maintained at powerup. It is also possible to designate all or a block of consecutive counters and data registers as “clear” types.

When the SmartAXIS is stopped, these statuses and values are maintained. When the SmartAXIS is reset by turning on a designated reset input, these statues and values are cleared despite the settings in the Configure Keep/Clear Settings dialog box shown below. The keep/clear settings in this dialog box are not maintained when restarting the SmartAXIS.

Since these settings relate to the user program, the user program must be downloaded to the SmartAXIS after changing any of these settings.

Data Register ROM Backup

This section describes data register ROM backup.

Data Register ROM Backup Overview

Data register ROM backup is a function to write data register values to ROM (non-volatile memory), and then read the values in ROM and store them in data registers at the desired timing. The SmartAXIS stores the device values using an internal backup battery (lithium secondary battery). However, if the backup battery is dead due to a long term power loss, a memory backup err o r will occur and the device values will be lost. In this situation, if you use data register ROM backup, you can initialize the data registers with the values backed up in ROM. When a memory cartridge is installed, data is written to and read from the memory cartridge.

*1 When you use the Lite and a memory cartridge is not installed on the Lite, data register ROM backup cannot be used.

■Applicable data registers

The applicable data registers are as follows.

Model number Data registers D0000 to D0399 D0000 to D1999

12-I/O type 24-, 40-, 48-I/O types

■ROM region

The ROM region that is used is as follows.

Memory cartridge

Device Description

M8154

M8155

When M8154 is on at the end of scan, the values of all data registers are written to ROM. After all values are written, the execution status is stored in D8133 and M8154 turns off.

When M8155 is on at the end of scan, the values in the corresponding ROM are read and stored to the data registers specified by D8184 (starting address to read) and D8185 (number of registers to read). After all values are read, the execution status is stored in D8133 and M8155 turns off.

The following are possible causes:

• The memory cart ridge is not properly installed.

• The ROM of Pro or the memory cartridge installed has failure.

D8133

D8184

D8185

Note: When M8154 and M8155 are on in the scan end, writing and reading are executed in that order. After executing the read, the execution

status is stored in D8133, and M8154 and M8155 turn off.

• On the Lite, re ading or writing is executed when the memory cartridge is not installed.

4: Invalid values are stored in D8184 (starting address to read) and D8185 (number of registers to read)

This error occurs when reading values. The following are possible causes:

• The number of registers to read is 0.

• The start address to read exceeds the largest data register address.

• The start address to read + the number of registers to read exceeds the largest data register address.

5: Valid data could not be read from ROM

This error occurs when reading. The follo wing are possible causes:

• No values are stored in the ROM.

• Writing values did not finish for a reason such as the power was turned off while writing values.

Stores the start address of the data registers to read. The value that can be specified is 0 to 399 for the 12-I/O type and 0 to 1999 for the 24-, 40-, 48-I/O types. Stores the number of data registers to read. The value that can be specified is 1 to 400 for the 12-I/O type and 1 to 2000 for the 24-, 40-, 48-I/O types.
