Warning! Dangerous electrical voltage!

Before commencing the installation

• Disconnect the power supply of the device.
• Ensure that devices cannot be accidentally restarted.
• Verify isolation from the supply.
• Earth and short circuit.
• Cover or enclose neighbouring units that are live.
• Follow the engineering instructions (AWA) of the device concerned.
• Only suitably qualified personnel in accordance with EN 50110-1/-2 (VDE 0105 Part 100) may work on this device/system.
• Before installation and before touching the device ensure that you are free of electrostatic charge.
• The functional earth (FE) must be connected to the protective earth (PE) or to the potential equalisation. The system installer is responsible for implementing this connection.
• Connecting cables and signal lines should be installed so that inductive or capacitive interference does not impair the automation functions.
• Install automation devices and related operating elements in such a way that they are well protected against unintentional operation.
• Suitable safety hardware and software measures should be implemented for the I/O interface so that a line or wire breakage on the signal side does not result in undefined states in the automation devices.
• Ensure a reliable electrical isolation of the low voltage for the 24 volt supply. Only use power supply units complying with IEC 60364-4-41 (VDE 0100 Part 410) or HD 384.4.41 S2.
• Deviations of the mains voltage from the rated value must not exceed the tolerance limits given in the specifications, otherwise this may cause malfunction and dangerous operation.
•Emergency stop devices complying with IEC/EN 60204-1 must be effective in all operating modes of the automation devices. Unlatching the emergency-stop devices must not cause restart.
• Devices that are designed for mounting in housings or control cabinets must only be operated and controlled after they have been installed with the housing closed. Desktop or portable units must only be operated and controlled in enclosed housings.
Moeller GmbH
Safety instructions
I
• Measures should be taken to ensure the proper restart of programs interrupted after a voltage dip or failure. This should not cause dangerous operating states even for a short time. If necessary, emergency­stop devices should be implemented.
• Wherever faults in the automation system may cause damage to persons or property, external measures must be implemented to ensure a safe operating state in the event of a fault or malfunction (for example, by means of separate limit switches, mechanical interlocks etc.).

easy is an electronic control relay with logic functions, timer, counter and time switch functions. It is also a control and input device in one that can perform many different tasks in domestic applications as well as in machine building and plant construction.
Circuit diagrams are connected up using ladder diagrams, and each element is entered directly via the easy display. For example, you can:
• Connect make and break contacts in series and in parallel
• Connect output relays and markers,
• Use outputs as relays, impulse relays or latching relays
• Use multi-function timing relays with different functions
• Use up and down counters,
• Count high-speed counter pulses
• Measure frequencies
• Process analog inputs, easy-AB, easy-DA, easy-DC, (EASY512..: two analog inputs, easy700: four analog inputs)
• Display any texts with variables, enter setpoints
• Use year time switches, 7-day time switches, EASY…-..-.C(X),
• Count operating hours (four retentive operating hours counters integrated)
• Track the flow of current in the circuit diagram
• Load, save and password-protect circuit diagrams

Connecting the power supply
Applies to easy-AC devices with a power supply greater than 24 V AC:
• The voltage terminals for phase L and neutral conductor N have been reversed.
• This enables the easy interface (for memory card or PC connection) to have the full connection voltage of the phase conductor (100 to 240 V AC).
• There is a danger of electric shock if the connection at the easy interface is not properly connected or if conductive objects are inserted into the socket.
Attention!
A short current surge will be produced when switching on for the first time. Do not switch on easy by means of reed contacts since these may burn or melt.

easy-AC: Inputs I7 and I8 have a higher input current on the easy-AC. Neon bulbs with a maximum residual current of 2 mA/1 mA at 230 V/115 V can be connected to I7 and I8.
Always use neon bulbs that are operated with a separate N connection.
Caution!
Do not use reed relay contacts at I7, I8. These may burn or melt due to the high inrush current of I7, I8.
Two-wire proximity switches have a residual current with the “0” state. If this residual current is too high, the easy input may only detect a “1” signal.
Therefore, use inputs I7 and I8. An additional input circuit is required if more inputs are used.

Connecting easy DC analog inputs

The easy-AB, easy-DA and easy-DC basic units are provided with analog inputs. Inputs I7 and I8, and if present I11 and I12, can be used to connect analog voltages ranging from 0 V to 10 V. A simple additional circuit also allows the analog evaluation of currents from 0 to 20 mA. The analog input signals are converted to 10-bit digital signals.
46
The following applies:
• 0 V DC corresponds to a digital 0.
• 5 V DC corresponds to a digital value of 512.
• 10 V DC corresponds to a digital value of 1023.

Connecting the inputs
Caution!
Analog signals are more sensitive to interference than digital signals. Consequently, greater care must be taken when laying and connecting the signal lines.
Incorrect switching states may occur if they are not connected correctly.
Safety measures with analog signals
X Use shielded twisted pair cables to prevent interference
with the analog signals.
X For short cable lengths, ground the shield at both ends
using a large contact area. If the cable length exceeds 30 m or so, grounding at both ends can result in equalisation currents between the two grounding points and thus in the interference of analog signals. In this case, only ground the cable at one end.
X Do not lay signal lines parallel to power cables. X Connect inductive loads to be switched via the easy
outputs to a separate power feed, or use a suppressor circuit for motors and valves. If loads such as motors, solenoid valves or contactors are operated with easy via the same power feed, switching may result in interference on the analog input signals.
i
The following four circuits contain examples of applications for analog value processing.
Caution!
Ensure that the reference potential is connected. Connect the 0 V of the power supply unit for the different setpoint potentiometers and sensors shown in the examples to the 0 V and neutral conductor terminal (easy-AB) of the easy power feed. Otherwise incorrect switching states may occur if they are not connected correctly.

Power supply of easy-AB devices and analog inputs
With easy-AB devices that process analog signals, the device must be fed via a transformer so that the device is isolated from the mains supply. The neutral conductor and the reference potential of the DC power feed of analog sensors must be electrically connected.

Behaviour with short-circuit/overload
Should a short circuit or overload occur on a transistor output, this output will switch off. The output will switch on up to maximum temperature after the cooling time has elapsed. This time depends on the ambient temperature and the current involved. If the fault condition persists, the output will keep switching off and on until the fault is corrected or until the power supply is switched off (a section “Monitoring of short-circuit/overload with EASY..-D.-T..”, page 242).

• As a minimum data exchange, the input data R1 to R16 and output data S1 to S8 can be exchanged, provided that the bus system supports this.
• If the bus system or bus gateway is capable of this, function block, date, time parameters can be read and written via the bus. The states of inputs, outputs, markers can be read.
The range and the functions of the bus gateways are being continually further developed.

easy operating modes easy has two operating modes - RUN and STOP.

In RUN mode easy continuously processes a stored circuit diagram until you select STOP or disconnect the power. The circuit diagram, parameters and the easy settings are retained in the event of a power failure. All you will have to do is reset the real-time clock after the back-up time has elapsed. Circuit diagram entry is only possible in STOP mode.
Caution!
i
In RUN mode easy will immediately run the saved circuit diagram in the unit when the power supply is switched on. This will happen unless STOP mode was set as startup mode. In RUN mode outputs are activated according to the switch logic of the circuit diagram.
When a memory card with a circuit diagram is fitted in an easy model with an LCD display, this circuit diagram will not start automatically if there is circuit diagram in the device. The circuit diagram must first be transferred from the memory card to the easy unit.

Creating your first circuit diagram

The following small circuit diagram takes you step by step through wiring up your first easy circuit diagram. In this way you will learn all the rules, quickly enabling you to use easy for your own projects.
As with conventional wiring, you use contacts and relays in the easy circuit diagram. With easy, however, you no longer have to connect up components individually. At the push of a few buttons, the easy circuit diagram produces all the wiring. All you have to do is then connect any switches, sensors, lamps or contactors you wish to use.

Fast circuit diagram entry

You can create a circuit diagram in several ways. The first option is to enter the elements in the circuit and then to wire all the elements together. The other option is to use the enhanced operator guidance of easy and create the circuit diagram in one go, from the first contact through to the last coil.
If you use the first option, you will have to select some of the elements in order to create and connect up your circuit diagram.
The second, faster option is what you learned in the example. In this case you create the entire rung from left to right.

Program
A program is a sequence of commands which easy executes cyclically in RUN mode. An easy program consists of the necessary settings for the device, password, system settings, a circuit diagram and/or function relays.
05/04 AWB2528-1508GB
Operation of easy
Circuit diagram
The circuit diagram is that part of the program where the contacts are connected together. In RUN mode a coil is switched on and off in accordance with the current flow and the coil function specified.
Function relays
Function relays are program elements with special functions. Example: timing relays, time switches, counters. Function relays are elements provided with or without contacts and coils as required. In RUN mode the function relays are processed according to the circuit diagram and the results are updated accordingly.
Examples: Timing relay = function relay with contacts and coils Time switch = function relay with contacts
Relay
Relays are switching devices which are electronically simulated in easy. They actuate their contacts according to their designated function. A relay consists of at least a coil and a contact.
Contacts
You modify the current flow with the contacts in the easy circuit diagram. Contacts such as make contacts carry a 1 signal when closed and 0 when open. Every contact in the easy circuit diagram can be defined as either a make contact or a break contact.
77
Wiring with easy
05/04 AWB2528-1508GB
Coils
Coils are the actuating mechanisms of relays. In RUN mode, the results of the wiring are sent to the coils, which switch on or off accordingly. Coils can have seven different coil functions.

easy works with different contacts, which can be used in any order in the contact fields of the circuit diagram.
h
To ensure compatibility with easy400 and easy600 devices, each easy500 and easy700 is provided logically with all possible contacts. If contacts are not supported by the device, i.e. devices without a clock, their switching state is always zero. The contacts (make contact) of the time switches are always set to logic 0.
The advantage of this process is that you can use the same circuit diagram on all easy500, easy700, easy-AB, easy­AC, easy-DA and easy-DC devices.

Circuit diagram display
In the easy circuit diagram, contacts and coils are connected up from left to right - from the contact to the coil. The circuit diagram is created on a hidden wiring grid containing contact fields, coil fields and rungs. It is then wired up with connections.
• You can add switch contacts in the three contact fields. Easy adds the first energized contact field automatically.
• You add the relay coil to be controlled together with its function and designation in the coil field.
• Every line in the circuit diagram forms a rung. Up to 128 rungs can be wired in a circuit diagram.

The circuit diagram display performs two functions:
• In STOP mode it is used to edit the circuit diagram.
• In RUN mode it is used to check the circuit diagram using the Power flow display.

Saving and loading circuit diagrams

There are two ways of saving circuit diagrams in easy externally:
• By saving to a memory card
• By saving to a PC running EASY-SOFT-BASIC.
Once they have been saved, programs can be reloaded into easy, edited and run.
All circuit diagram data is saved in easy. In the event of a power failure the data will be retained until the next time it is overwritten or deleted.
Memory card
Each EASY-M-32K memory card contains a circuit diagram which is inserted into the easy interface. The program is stored retentively on the memory card.
82
The way the memory card works and a description of how to transfer a program to the card is given in section “Memory card” on page 248.
h
EASY-M-8K memory cards of easy400 devices can be read in easy500. EASY-M-8K memory cards of easy400 devices and easy600 EASY-M16K memory cards can be read in easy700.
Write operations from easy500 and easy700 are only possible to the EASY-M32K memory card.
EASY-SOFT-BASIC
EASY-SOFT-BASIC is a PC program with which you can create, store, test (simulate) and manage easy circuit diagrams.

The buttons are wired in the circuit diagram as contacts P1 to P4. The P buttons can be activated and deactivated in the
P3
System menu.
The P buttons can also be used for testing circuits or manual operation. These button functions are also useful for servicing and commissioning purposes.
Example 1:
A lamp at output relay Q1 is switched on and off via inputs I1 and I2 or using cursor buttons
Í Ú.
Example 2
Terminal I1 is used to control output relay Q1. Terminal I5 switches to Cursor button mode and deactivates rung I1 via
M
1.
The P buttons are only detected as switches in the Status menu. The cursor buttons are used for other functions in the menus, the power flow display and in the text display.
The Status menu display shows whether the P buttons are used in the circuit diagram.
• P: button function wired and active.
• P2: button function wired, active and P2 button Í
pressed.
• P-: button function wired and not active.
• Empty field: P buttons not used.

X Complete the small parallel connection and switch easy to
RUN mode via the main menu.
X Return to the circuit diagram display.
You are now unable to edit the circuit diagram.
If you switch to the circuit diagram display and are unable to modify a circuit diagram, first check whether easy is in STOP mode.
The circuit diagram display performs two functions depending on the mode:
• STOP: Creation of the circuit diagram
• RUN: Power flow display
X Switch on I3.
In the power flow display, energized connections are thicker than non-energized connections.
You can follow energized connections across all rungs by scrolling the display up and down.
The power flow display will not show signal fluctuations in the millisecond range. This is due to the inherent delay factor of LCD displays.

The coil functions Ä, Å, è, È, (contactor, contactor
negated, cycle pulse negative, rising edge) must only be used once for each relay coil. The last coil in the circuit diagram determines the status of the relay.
When controlling a contactor or relay, the control coil is only present once. If you are creating parallel circuits, use Set, Reset as a coil function.
Rules for wiring relay coils
To ensure a clear overview of all relay states only assign the same coil function once to a relay ( retentive coil functions such as
ä, S, R). However,
ä, S, R can be used several
times if required by the circuit diagram logic.
Exception: When using jumps to structure a circuit diagram, this coil function can also be used effectively several times.
Relay with contactor function
Ä
The output signal follows immediately after the input signal and the relay acts as a contactor.

Working with contacts and relays
Contactor function with negated result (inverse contactor function)
Å
The output signal is simply an inversion of the input signal; the relay operates like a contactor with contacts that have been negated. If the coil is triggered with the 1 state, the coil switches its make contacts to the 0 state.

Falling edge evaluation (cycle pulse) è
This function is used if the coil is only meant to switch on a falling edge. With a change in the coil state from 1 to 0, the coil switches its make contacts to the 1 state for one cycle.

Latching relay
The “latch” and “unlatch” relay functions are used in pairs. The relay picks up when latched and remains in this state until it is reset by the “unlatch” function.
