serious consequences. Observe the precautions of both levels because they are important for personal and system safety.

Make sure that the end users read this manual and then keep the manual in a safe place for future reference.

Indicates that incorrect handling may cause hazardous conditions, resulting in death or severe injury.

Indicates that incorrect handling may cause hazardous conditions, resulting in minor or moderate injury or property damage.

[Design Precautions]

WARNING

● When a communication failure occurs in the network, data in the master module are held. Check Data link status (each station) (SW00B0 to SW00B7) and configure an interlock circuit in the program to ensure that the entire system will operate safely.

● Do not use any "use prohibited" signals as a remote input or output signal. Do not write any data to the "use prohibited" areas in the remote register. If these operations are performed, correct operation of the module cannot be guaranteed.

[Design Precautions]

CAUTION

● Do not install the control lines or communication cables together with the main circuit lines or power cables. Keep a distance of 100mm or more between them. Failure to do so may result in malfunction due to noise.

[Installation Precautions]

WARNING

● Shut off the external power supply (all phases) used in the system before mounting or removing a module. Failure to do so may result in electric shock or cause the module to fail or malfunction.

[Installation Precautions]

CAUTION

● Use the module in an environment that meets the general specifications in this manual. Failure to do so may result in electric shock, fire, malfunction, or damage to or deterioration of the product.

● Do not directly touch any conductive parts and electronic components of the module. Doing so can cause malfunction or failure of the module.

● After the first use of the product, do not connect/remove the extension module more than 50 times (IEC 61131-2 compliant). Exceeding the limit may cause malfunction.

● To connect an extension module to a main module, engage the respective connectors and securely lock the module joint levers. Incorrect connection may cause malfunction, failure, or drop of the module.

● Securely connect the cable connectors. Poor contact may cause malfunction.

[Wiring Precautions]

WARNING

● Shut off the external power supply (all phases) used in the system before wiring. Failure to do so may result in electric shock or cause the module to fail or malfunction.

[Wiring Precautions]

CAUTION

● Individually ground the FG terminal of the programmable controller with a ground resistance of 100 ohms or less. Failure to do so may result in electric shock or malfunction.

● Tighten any unused terminal screws within the specified torque range. Undertightening can cause a short circuit due to contact with a solderless terminal.

● Use applicable solderless terminals and tighten them within the specified torque range. If any spade solderless terminal is used, it may be disconnected when a terminal block screw comes loose, resulting in failure.

● Check the rated voltage and terminal layout before wiring to the module, and connect the cables correctly. Connecting a power supply with a different voltage rating or incorrect wiring may cause a fire or failure.

● Tighten the terminal block screws within the specified torque range. Undertightening can cause short circuit, fire, or malfunction. Overtightening can damage the screw and/or module, resulting in drop, short circuit, fire, or malfunction.

● Prevent foreign matter such as dust or wire chips from entering the module. Such foreign matter can cause a fire, failure, or malfunction.

● Place the cables in a duct or clamp them. If not, dangling cable may swing or inadvertently be pulled, resulting in damage to the module or cables or malfunction due to poor contact.

● When disconnecting the cable from the module, do not pull the cable by the cable part. For the cable with connector, hold the connector part of the cable. For the cable connected to the terminal block, loosen the terminal screw. Pulling the cable connected to the module may result in malfunction or damage to the module or cable.

● When an overcurrent caused by an error of an external device or a failure of the programmable controller flows for a long time, it may cause smoke and fire. To prevent this, configure an external safety circuit, such as a fuse.

● Mitsubishi Electric programmable controllers must be installed in control panels. Wiring and replacement of a module must be performed by qualified maintenance personnel with knowledge of protection against electric shock. For wiring methods, refer to "INSTALLATION AND WIRING" in this manual.

[Startup and Maintenance Precautions]

WARNING

● Do not touch any terminal while power is on. Doing so will cause electric shock or malfunction.

● Shut off the external power supply (all phases) used in the system before cleaning the module or

retightening the terminal block screws or connector screws. Failure to do so may cause the module to fail or malfunction.

[Startup and Maintenance Precautions]

CAUTION

● Do not disassemble or modify the module. Doing so may cause failure, malfunction, injury, or a fire.

● Do not drop or apply strong shock to the module. Doing so may damage the module.

● Shut off the external power supply (all phases) used in the system before mounting or removing a

module. Failure to do so may cause the module to fail or malfunction.

● After the first use of the product, do not connect/remove the terminal block more than 50 times (IEC 61131-2 compliant). Exceeding the limit may cause malfunction.

● Before handling the module or connection cables, touch a conducting object such as a grounded metal to discharge the static electricity from the human body. Failure to do so may cause the module to fail or malfunction.

● Startup and maintenance of a control panel must be performed by qualified maintenance personnel with knowledge of protection against electric shock. Lock the control panel so that only qualified maintenance personnel can operate it.

CHAPTER 1 A/D CONVERTER MODULE

This chapter describes the application and the features of the A/D converter module.

1.1 Application

The A/D converter module converts analog values that are input from external devices to digital operation values.

A/D conversion

Analog signal as a continuous amount

The converted digital operation value can be checked in the master station.

Using the A/D converter module allows the flow or temperature measured by the A/D converter module to be checked

through the master station.

Digital signal as a discrete sequence

Master station

1.1 Application

CC-Link IE Field Network

Power conditioner

Heater

Main A/D converter module

1.2 Features

(1) Flexible system configuration

The employed connection block type provides the combined use of a main module and an extension module.

A flexible configuration can be achieved because various extension modules can be connected.

In addition, the main module always monitors the connection status of the extension module, leading to an early

detection of connection failure.

Various extension modules can be connected according to the application. No wiring of wires and Ethernet cables is required.

Extension moduleMain module

Main A/D converter module

The flexible combination is possible.

Extension output module (sink type)

Extension output module (source type)

Extension A/D converter module

Extension D/A converter module

(2) Easy setting of station numbers

Station numbers are set with the rotary switch on the front of the module, where setting and checking the station

numbers are easy.

(3) Selectable conversion speed

A/D conversion at 100μs/channel meets the need of a high-speed conversion.

Under the environment in which noise is likely to occur, switching the conversion speed to 400μs/channel or

1ms/channel minimizes the effect of noise on the digital operation value, the stability of which is improved.

CHAPTER 1 A/D CONVERTER MODULE

(4) A/D conversion at any desired timing

A/D conversion is performed once immediately after the input of a trigger conversion request to obtain the digital

operation value.

The combination with the external signal assignment function allows direct input of a trigger conversion request

from the extension input module, with the following advantages:

• Being free from the effect of the sequence scan and link scan, digital operation values can be constantly

obtained at a given timing, which leads to the improvement of the reliability.

• Digital operation values can be obtained without any program, which leads to a reduction in the cost of

creating a program.

Analog input signals (CH1 to CH4)

Displacement sensor

Extension input module

Main A/D converter module

Trigger conversion request by the external

signal assignment function

(5) Change to any scale

A/D conversion values can be converted to be within any scale, the range of which is determined arbitrarily.

According to the device that handles digital operation values, the scale can be changed without any program,

resulting in cost reduction.

(6) Detection of the disconnection

An input range of 1 to 5V, or 4 to 20mA allows the detection of the disconnection of analog input, facilitating the

diagnosis of the cause at the time of a trouble.

In combination with the external signal assignment function, the extension output module allows a signal (input

signal error detection signal) to be output to the outside without any program upon detection of the disconnection.

At this time, there is no influence of the sequence scan and link scan.

1.2 Features

(7) Input and output without an influence of the sequence scan and link scan

Ex.

Main A/D converter module

Extension output module

An error has

occurred.

An error signal occurred in the A/D converter module can be output to the extension output module directly.

Error lamp

(external device)

Programming is not necessary to turn on an error lamp when an error occurs.

Using the external signal assignment function allows a trigger conversion request to be input from the extension

input module. In the event of an error or an alert, an error status or an alert status can be output from the

extension output module.

These input and output are not affected by the sequence scan and link scan.

To turn on the lamp when an error occurs.

(8) Support for the CC-Link IE Field Network synchronous communication

function

A/D conversion can be performed together with the synchronization period of the master station that supports the

CC-Link IE Field Network synchronous communication function.

This enables the A/D converter module to operate at the same timing of other slave stations sharing the same

network.

Upward installation

(9) Various installation methods

The module can be installed in six directions using a DIN rail.

(10)Easy module replacement

The terminal block for module power supply and FG, and the terminal block for analog input signals have a two-

piece structure, where the module can be replaced with the wire connected. In addition, the terminal block for

analog input signals has a lift-up structure, where the terminal block lifts only by loosening the terminal block

mounting screw, enabling it to be removed easily.

(11)Check on the error history

The history of the last 15 errors and occurrence time is stored in the main A/D converter module.

Checking the error information of the past helps to identify the cause at the time of a trouble.

(12)Easy settings by CC IE Field configuration of the engineering tool

The CC IE Field configuration of the engineering tool makes it possible to set parameters on its window, thereby

reducing the programs. In addition, the setting status and the operating status of modules can be checked easily.

Allows the selection of the conversion speeds to be either 100μs, 400μs or 1ms.

Performs A/D conversion on analog input values sequentially, storing the digital operation values into the remote register.

Performs A/D conversion for a set period of time and averages the total value excluding the maximum and the minimum values, storing the averaged value into the remote register. The number of processing times within the set period of time varies depending on the number of channels used (number of channels where A/D conversion is enabled).

Performs A/D conversion a set number of times and averages the total value excluding the maximum and the minimum values, storing the averaged value into the remote register. Time taken to store the average value by count average varies depending on the number of channels used (the number of channels where A/D conversion is enabled).

Takes in digital operation values a set number of times at every sampling period and averages these values, storing the averaged value into the remote register. The target range for average processing moves at each sampling, thereby allowing the latest digital operation value to be obtained.

Allows the input range to be selected for each channel from the following:

• Factory default range (4 to 20mA, 0 to 20mA, 1 to 5V, 0 to 5V, -10 to 10V)

• User range (user range setting 1, user range setting

For each channel, stores the maximum and minimum values of digital operation values into the remote buffer memory.

Outputs an alert when a digital operation value falls within the alert output range set in advance.

Performs scale conversion on a digital operation value within the range of the scaling upper limit value and the scaling lower limit value, both of which are set at desired values.

Adds the conversion value shift amount specified to a digital operation value and stores it into the remote register. This function facilitates fine adjustment at the system start-up.

Allows the maximum value and the minimum value of a digital output value to be fixed at 16000 and 0 or 16000 respectively if a voltage or current exceeding the input range is input.

Do not access any system area using the REMFR or REMTO instruction. Doing so may cause malfunction.

(1) Parameter area (address: 0000H to 04FFH)

For the parameter area, parameters can be set by means of the CC IE Field configuration of the engineering tool,

or the REMTO instruction.

The parameters in the parameter area are backed up to the non-volatile memory.

The parameters backed up to the non-volatile memory are read out to the parameter area when the module

power supply is turned off and on or the module is reset by remote reset.

For the parameters written from the parameter settings of the CC IE Field configuration of the engineering tool,

the write to the non-volatile memory is also completed at the same time. For the parameters written using the

REMTO instruction, the timing of the write to the non-volatile memory is at the time of turning on Initial data

setting request flag (RY9) from off. At this time, even an invalid parameter is written to the non-volatile memory as

well. With an invalid parameter written, turning off and on the power supply causes the invalid parameter to be

read from the non-volatile memory, resulting in the error code being stored into Latest error code (RWr0). Take corrective action with reference to the error code list. ( Page 172, Section 11.2)

CHAPTER 6 INSTALLATION AND WIRING

Ex.

This chapter describes the installation and wiring of the A/D converter module.

6.1 Station Number Setting

(1) Setting method

Set the station number with the rotary switch on the front of the module. Set the station number in the power-off

state because the set value is enabled at power-on.

• The dial x10 is used to set the hundreds and tens place of a station number.

• The dial x1 is used to set the ones place of a station number.

For the station number 115, set the switch as shown below.

(2) Setting range

Set the station number, which can be from 1 to 120. A value other than 1 to 120 causes a communication error,

resulting in the D LINK LED flashing.

● While the module power supply is in an on state, changing the station number setting switch causes a minor error, resulting in the ERR. LED flashing. When the station number setting switch is set back to the previous state, the module recovers from the error after five seconds, resulting in the ERR. LED turning off.

● For the station number setting, avoid duplication with the other station numbers. Number duplication causes a communication error, which does not allow the D LINK LED to light up.

CHAPTER 6 INSTALLATION AND WIRING

To obtain the maximum performance from the functions of the A/D converter module and improve the system

reliability, an external wiring with high durability against noise is required. Precautions for external wiring are as

follows:

• Use separate cables for the AC control circuit and the external input signals of the A/D converter module to

avoid the influence of the AC side surges or induction.

• Do not install cables together with the main circuit lines, high voltage lines, or power cables for equipment

other than the programmable controller. Noise, surges, or induction may affect the system.

• Ground the shielded wires or shielded cables at one point on the programmable controller side. However,

depending on the external noise conditions, it may be better to ground them externally.

• For the voltage input, do not exceed a range of ±15V. Doing so can cause breakdown of the elements.

• For the current input, do not exceed a range of ±30mA. Doing so can cause breakdown of the elements.

CHAPTER 7 VARIOUS SETTINGS

Remark

CHAPTER 7 VARIOUS SETTINGS

This chapter describes how to set up various settings of the A/D converter module.

7.1 Parameter Settings

Set the parameter of this module with the network parameter written to the CPU module of the master station. For the

setting procedure of the master station, refer to the following:  User's manual for the master/local module used

● Place a checkmark in the "Set the network configuration settings in CC IE Field configuration window" box on the "MELSECNET/CC IE/Ethernet Module Configuration" window in advance.

● To select the main A/D converter module in the CC IE Field Configuration window, select "NZ2GF2B-60AD4" from the "Module List" window.

● To select an extension module in the "CC IE Field Configuration" window, select the following models from the "Module List" window.

Extension module type Name

Extension Digital Input Module NZ2EX-16 (DI)

Extension Digital Output Module NZ2EX-16 (DO)

Extension A/D Converter Module NZ2EX2B-60AD4

Extension D/A Converter Module NZ2EX2B-60DA4

● Setting fewer points of the remote I/O signal or remote register than actual points that the main A/D converter module or the extension module possesses does not cause an error. In this case, data of all the set points are subject to cyclic transmission in order.

7.1 Parameter Settings

(1) Precautions

Do not uncheck the box.

(a) Before parameter settings

For the precautions before parameter settings, refer to the following.

GX Works3 Operating Manual GX Works2 Version 1 Operating Manual (Common)

(b) Parameter settings

• When using the A/D converter module, always enable the block data assurance per station. When it is

disabled, correct operation of the A/D converter module cannot be guaranteed. For details on the block data assurance per station, refer to the following:  User's manual for the master/local module used.

• Do not set the parameters using the CCPASET instruction in the master station. Executing the CCPASET

instruction results in the module operating with block data assurance per station deactivated, where proper

performance as the A/D converter module cannot be guaranteed. (The CCPASET instruction is intended

to configure parameters for a master/local module. For details on the CCPASET instruction, refer to the following:  User's manual for the master/local module used.)

• When using an extension module, be sure to write the module parameters ( Page 71, Section 7.1 (2)).

If the parameters of the extension module has not been written, the error code (1F30H) is stored in Latest

error code (RWr0), Error flag (RXA) turns on, and the ERR. LED lights up.

8. After setting all the channels to be used, turn off the

module power supply.

● Set up the offset value and the gain value under actual use conditions. Connection to the CC-Link IE Field Network is not necessary.

● Set up the offset/gain setting in the range satisfying the following condition. If the range is exceeded, the maximum resolution and accuracy may not fall within the range described in the performance specifications.

• I/O Conversion Characteristics of A/D Conversion ( Page 229, Appendix 4)

● Set values are held and available even after turning off the module power supply because a offset value and a gain value are written into the non-volatile memory in the main A/D converter module.

● Set up the offset/gain setting so that the offset value is smaller than the gain value. With Range setting (address: 0103H) set to User range setting 1 or User range setting 2, the main A/D converter module performs a check on the offset/gain set values when Initial data setting request flag (RY9) is turned on from off. For invalid condition (offset value ≥ gain value), this check results in the error code (040H) being stored into Latest error code (RWr0), Error flag (RXA) turning on, and the ERR. LED lighting up.

● The extension A/D converter module does not support user range. Therefore, the offset/gain setting cannot be set up for the extension A/D converter module.

An analog input value and digital operation value are processed by the functions in the order shown below. If multiple

functions are enabled, the output of the first-processed function is used as the input of the next function.

(1) Digital operation value

Digital values after sampling processing or averaging processing have been performed are called digital output

values.

The values obtained by operating the digital output value using the digital clipping function, scaling function, shift

function, or difference conversion function are stored.

(2) Maximum and minimum values

The maximum and minimum values of the digital operation values are stored.

8.4 A/D Conversion Enable/Disable Function

This function allows A/D conversion to be enabled or disabled for each channel.

Disabling the A/D conversion for unused channels reduces the conversion cycles.

Conversion processing

Conversion speed is the rate at which an A/D converter module converts analog input values.

A sampling period is the period of conversion processing within the one channel.

A conversion period is the period of the update of a digital operation value with the A/D conversion method (sampling

processing or averaging processing) taken into account, and is equivalent to an integral multiple of the sampling period. ( Page 95, Section 8.6)

The following figure shows the relationship between conversion speed and a sampling period.

The sampling cycle varies depending on the type of main analog module, the conversion speed, the type of extension

module, and the number of conversion enabled channels.

The following table shows the classification.

(1) When an extension module is not connected or an extension I/O module is

The sampling period is given by the following:

Assuming that the conversion speed setting is 100μs and the number of conversion enabled channels is

Sampling period of the main A/D converter module = 100μs × 4 = 400μs

(2) When an extension A/D converter module is connected to a main A/D

When an extension A/D converter module is connected to a main A/D converter module, processing time (100μs)

is generated between the conversion processing of each channel.

(a) With a conversion speed of 100μs

Between the conversion processing (100μs) of each channel, processing time (100μs) is generated. Therefore,

the sampling period is given by the following:

If the number of conversion enabled channels is different between a main A/D converter module and an extension A/D converter module, the main A/D converter module and the extension A/D converter module perform A/D conversion at each different sampling period. For example, assuming the following settings:

• Conversion speed setting: 100μs

• Conversion enabled channels of the main A/D converter module: CH1, CH2, CH3 (number of conversion enabled channels: 3)

• Conversion enabled channels of the extension A/D converter module: CH1, CH2 (number of conversion enabled channels: 2)

(3) When an extension D/A converter module is connected to a main A/D

converter module

When an extension D/A converter module is connected to a main A/D converter module, the conversion speed is

fixed to 100μs for the main A/D converter module and the extension D/A converter module. The setting of the

conversion speed switch (address: 0001H) is ignored. In addition, between the conversion processing of each

channel, processing time (100μs) is generated.

Therefore, the sampling period of the main A/D converter module is given by the following:

When an extension A/D converter module is connected to a main D/A converter module, the conversion speed is

fixed to 100μs for the main D/A converter module and the extension A/D converter module. In addition, between

the conversion processing of each channel, processing time (100μs) is generated.

Therefore, the sampling period of the extension A/D converter module is given by the following:

Sampling period = (Conversion speed (100μs) + Processing time (100μs)) × Number of conversion enabled

channels

Assuming that the number of conversion enabled channels is 4 for both the main D/A converter module

and the extension A/D converter module

Sampling period of the main D/A converter module = (100μs + 100μs) × 4 = 800μs

Sampling period of the extension A/D converter module = (100μs + 100μs) × 4 = 800μs

(4 0.4)

Set whether to perform sampling processing or averaging processing for each channel.

(1) Sampling processing

This processing performs A/D conversion on analog input values in sequence. The converted values at this time

are referred to as digital operation values.

For a main A/D converter module, digital operation values are stored into CH Digital operation value (RWr2 to

RWr5) at every sampling periods. For an extension A/D converter module, digital operation values are stored into

CH Digital operation value (RWr12 to RWr15) at every sampling periods.

The sampling period of the main A/D converter module and the extension A/D converter module depends on the

conversion speed setting and the number of conversion enabled channels. For details, refer to the following:

• Conversion Speed and Sampling Period ( Page 90, Section 8.5.1)

(2) Averaging processing

This processing performs averaging processing on digital operation values for each channel, storing the average

values into CH Digital operation value (RWr2 to RWr5, RWr12 to RWr15).

There are three types of averaging processing as follows:

• Time average

• Count average

• Moving average

CHAPTER 8 FUNCTIONS

(a) Time average

This processing performs A/D conversion for a set time and averages the total excluding the maximum and

minimum values, storing the average value into CH Digital operation value (RWr2 to RWr5, RWr12 to

RWr15).

The number of processing times varies depending on the sampling period.

The number of processing times assuming the following settings with no extension module connected

Item Setting

Number of channels used (number of channels where A/D conversion is enabled) 4 channels (CH1 to CH4)

Conversion speed 400μs/channel

Setting time 15ms

For the time average, the valid lower limit value to be set is given by: Minimum number of processing times, or

4 × Sampling period.

8.6 A/D Conversion Method

For the time average, the valid lower limit value to be set is given by: Minimum number of processing times, or 4 × Sampling

Ex.

period.

Example: A maximum of 4 channels is used (conversion speed: 1ms/channel)

(1ms × 4) × 4 = 16ms

If the number of processing times falls below four due to the set time, an error occurs (error code: 020), where the digital operation value becomes 0.

(b) Count average

This processing performs A/D conversion for a set number of times and averages the total excluding the

maximum and minimum values, storing the average value into CH Digital operation value (RWr2 to RWr5,

RWr12 to RWr15).

The time taken to store the average value obtained by count average into CH Digital operation value (RWr2

to RWr5, RWr12 to RWr15) varies depending on the sampling period.

Number of processing times = Set number of times × Sampling period

Processing times assuming the following settings with no extension module connected:

Item Setting

Number of channels used (number of channels where A/D conversion is enabled) 4 channels (CH1 to CH4)

Conversion speed 400μs/channel

Set number of times 20 times

20 × (4 × 0.4) = 32.0 (ms)

→ An average value is output every 32.0 ms.

Because the count average requires a sum of at least two counts except the maximum and minimum values, the set number of times should be set to four or more.

This processing averages the digital output values taken in at each sampling cycle for a specified number of

times, storing the average value into CH Digital operation value (RWr2 to RWr5, RWr12 to RWr15).

Because the averaging processing is performed on a moving set of sampling processing, the latest digital

operation values can be obtained.

The moving average processing for a set number of times of four is shown below:
