Subject to alteration without notice.

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.).

About This Manual

This manual describes the installation, commissioning and
programming (circuit diagram generation) of the easy500
and easy700 control relay.

Specialist electrical training is needed for commissioning and
creating circuit diagrams. When active components such as
motors or pressure cylinders are controlled, parts of the
system can be damaged and persons put at risk if the device
is connected or programmed incorrectly.

Target readership easy must only be installed and connected up by trained

electricians or other persons who are familiar with the
installation of electrical equipment.

Specialist electrical training is needed for commissioning and
creating circuit diagrams. When active components such as
motors or pressure cylinders are controlled, parts of the
system can be damaged and persons put at risk if easy is
connected or programmed incorrectly.

Proper use easy is a programmable switching and control device and is

used as a replacement for relay and contactor control
circuits. easy may only be operated when it has been
correctly and properly installed.

• easy is designed to be installed in an enclosure, switch
cabinet or service distribution board. Both the power feed
and the signal terminals must be laid and covered so as to
prevent accidental contact.

• The installation must comply with regulations for
electromagnetic compatibility (EMC).

• The starting up of easy should not cause any hazards
arising from controlled devices, such as unexpected motor
startups or power ups.

Improper use

easy should not be used as a substitute for safety-related
controls such as burner or crane controls, emergency-stop or
two-hand safety controls.

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

If you prefer to wire up easy from a PC, then use EASY-SOFT­BASIC. EASY-SOFT-BASIC allows you to create and test your
circuit diagram on the PC. EASY-SOFT-BASIC is also used to
print out your circuit diagram in DIN, ANSI or easy format.
