[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 I/O 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.
● Configure safety circuits external to the programmable controller to ensure that the entire system
operates safely even when a fault occurs in the external power supply or the programmable controller.
Failure to do so may result in an accident due to an incorrect output or malfunction.
(1) The status of analog output depends on the setting of various functions that control the analog
output. Exercise great caution when setting those functions. For details of the status of analog
output, refer to Page 92, Section 8.7.
(2) Due to failure of the output element or internal circuit, normal output may not be obtained
correctly. Configure an external circuit for monitoring output signals that could cause a serious
accident.

Page 4
[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.
● At power-on/off, a voltage may occur or a current may flow between output terminals for a moment. In
this case, start the control after analog outputs become stable.
[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 interconnection may cause malfunction, failure, or drop of the
extension 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.

Page 5
[Wiring Precautions]
CAUTION
● 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.
● 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.
● 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.

CHAPTER 1D/A CONVERTER MODULE
This chapter describes the applications and features of the D/A converter module.
1.1Application
The D/A converter module converts digital data to analog signals and outputs them to the external devices.
The digital data is set up from the master station.
Using the D/A converter module allows the flow and the temperature to be controlled from the master station.

Main D/A converter module
Extension A/D converter module
Extension D/A converter module
(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.
(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) Improved response by high-speed conversion
The high-speed conversion, 100s/channel, has been achieved.
(4) Reliability with high accuracy
The obtained accuracy for the maximum value of analog output value is high: 0.2% at an ambient temperature
of 25 5; and 0.3% at an ambient temperature of 0 to 55.
(5) D/A conversion at any desired timing
D/A conversion is performed on a digital value immediately after the input of a trigger output request for each
channel.
The combination with the external signal assignment function allows direct input of a trigger output request from
the extension input module, which has the following advantages:
• Being free from the effect of the sequence scan and link scan, analog output values can be constantly
obtained at a given timing, which leads to the improvement of the reliability.
• Analog output values can be obtained without any program, which leads to a reduction in the cost of creating
a program.
16
Page 19
CHAPTER 1 D/A CONVERTER MODULE
(6) Change to any scale
D/A conversion values can be converted to be within any scale, the range of which is determined arbitrarily.
According to a digital value to be input, the scale can be changed without any program, resulting in cost
reduction.
(7) Error detection and error monitoring
An alert issued for a digital value exceeding the range set in advance allows monitoring abnormality of a digital
value and limiting the output of a digital value.
(8) Output without an influence of the sequence scan and link scan
Using the external signal assignment function allows the output of an error status or an alert status from the
extension output module in the event of an error or an alert.
This output is free from the influence of the sequence scan and link scan.
An error signal occurred in the D/A
converter module can be output to

(external device)
(9) Support for the CC-Link IE Field Network synchronous communication
function
D/A conversion can be performed with a synchronization period of the master station that supports the CC-Link
IE Field Network synchronous communication function.
This enables the D/A converter module to operate at the same timing of other slave stations sharing the same
network.
1.2 Features
17
Page 20
(10)Various installation methods
The module can be installed in six directions using a DIN rail.
The terminal block for module power supply and FG, and the terminal block for analog output signals have a two-
piece structure, where the module can be replaced with the wire connected. In addition, the terminal block for
analog output 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.
(12)Check on the error history
The history of the last 15 errors and occurrence time is stored in the main D/A converter module.
Checking the error information of the past helps to identify the cause at the time of a trouble.
(13)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.

*1Do not use or store the D/A converter module under pressure higher than the atmospheric pressure at an elevation of 0
meters. Doing so may cause malfunction. When using the D/A converter module under pressure, please consult your
local Mitsubishi representative.
*2If the environment satisfies the operating ambient temperature, operating ambient humidity and other conditions, the
module can be used even outside the control panel.
*3This indicates the assumption that the equipment is connected to which type of power distribution system, from the
public electrical power distribution network down to machinery within premises.
Category applies to equipment for which electrical power is supplied from fixed facilities. The surge voltage withstand
level for the equipment with up to the rated voltage of 300V is 2500V.
*4This index indicates the degree to which conductive material is generated in terms of the environment in which the
equipment is used.
In pollution degree 2, only non-conductive pollution occurs. A temporary conductivity caused by condensation must be
expected occasionally.

Allows D/A conversion to be enabled or disabled for each channel.
Disabling the D/A conversion for unused channels reduces the conversion
cycles.
Allows the selection of whether to output the D/A conversion value or the
offset value for each channel.
Whether the output is enabled or disabled, the conversion period is
constant.
Allows the output 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 2)
Allows the selection of whether to hold or clear the analog value output
when the CPU module is in the following operating status: RUN, STOP, or
a stop error.
Monitors the update intervals of cyclic data. For the cyclic transmission
stop lasting longer than the specified monitoring time, whether to hold or
clear the last output value can be selected.
Performs scale conversion on a digital value within the range of the scaling
upper limit value and the scaling lower limit value, both of which are set at
desired values. This reduces the time and effort to create a program of the
scale conversion.
Provides analog output, adding the set shift value to a digital value. This
function facilitates fine adjustment at the system start-up.
Outputs an error when a digital value is out of the digital input range of the
output range setting.
Outputs an alert when a digital value falls within the alert output range set
in advance.
Provides D/A conversion in accordance with the input of Trigger output
request.
Trigger output request that is input to the extension input module via an
external device also allows D/A conversion.
Performs D/A conversion with a synchronization period of the master
station that supports the CC-Link IE Field Network synchronous
communication function. This makes it possible to synchronize the
operation with other slave stations sharing the same network.
Notifies an error to the master station by the remote input signal if a
moderate error or a major error occurs in the D/A converter module.
The main D/A converter module permits the connection of one extension
I/O module.
• With an extension input module connected, remote output signals of the
main D/A converter module can be assigned to remote input signals of
the extension input module connected.
• With an extension output module connected, remote input signals of the
main D/A converter module can be assigned to remote output signals of
the extension output module connected.
Functions unique to an extension I/O module can also be used.

3.7.1Main D/A converter module
(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 153, Section 11.2)

This chapter describes the installation and wiring of the D/A converter module.
6.1Station 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.
6
(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.

To obtain the maximum performance from the functions of the D/A 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 output signals of the D/A 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.
(d) External wiring
The following shows the external wiring.
• For voltage output
*1For the cable, use the 2-core shielded twisted pair cable.
*2If there is noise or ripples in the external wiring, connect a 0.1 to 0.47F capacitor (25V or higher voltage-resistant
product) to the input terminal of the external device.
• For current output
*3For the cable, use the 2-core shielded twisted pair cable.
*4If there is noise or ripples in the external wiring, connect a 0.1 to 0.47F capacitor (25V or higher voltage-resistant
product) to the input terminal of the external device.

(1) Precautions
Do not uncheck the box.
(a) Before parameter settings
For the precautions before parameter settings, refer to the following.
• When using the D/A converter module, always enable the block data assurance per station. If it is
disabled, correct operation of the D/A converter module cannot be guaranteed. For the block data
assurance per station, refer to the following: User's manual for the master/local module used
CHAPTER 7 VARIOUS SETTINGS
• 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 D/A converter module cannot be guaranteed.
• When using the extension module, be sure to write the module parameters (Page 70, 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.

● Set up the offset value and the gain value under actual use conditions.
Connection to the CC-Link IE Field Network is not necessary.
● Configure 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.
● 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 D/A 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 D/A 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 (040H) being stored into Latest error
code (RWr0), Error flag (RXA) turning on, and the ERR. LED lighting up.
● The extension D/A converter module does not support user range. Therefore, the offset/gain setting cannot be set up for
the extension D/A converter module.

(2) When an extension D/A converter module is connected to a main D/A
converter module
When an extension D/A converter module is connected to a main D/A converter module, processing time (100s)
arises between the conversion processing of each channel. Therefore, the conversion period is given by the
following:
Conversion period = (Conversion speed (100s) + Processing time (100s)) 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 D/A converter module

Conversion period of the extension D/A converter module = (100s + 100s) 4 = 800s
If the number of conversion enabled channels is different between a main D/A converter module and an extension D/A
converter module, the main D/A converter module and the extension D/A converter module perform D/A conversion at each
different conversion period.
For example, assuming the following settings:
• Conversion enabled channels of the main D/A converter module: CH1, CH2, CH3 (number of conversion enabled
channels: 3)
• Conversion enabled channels of the extension D/A converter module: CH1, CH2 (number of conversion enabled

When an extension A/D converter module is connected to a main D/A converter module, the conversion speed is
fixed to 100s for the main D/A converter module and the extension A/D converter module. In addition,
processing time (100s) arises between the conversion processing of each channel. Therefore, the conversion
period of the main D/A converter module is given by the following:

8.6Range Switching Function
The output range can be selected for each channel from the following ranges:
• Factory default range (4 to 20mA, 0 to 20mA, 1 to 5V, 0 to 5V, -10 to 10V)
• User range (user range setting 1 (-10 to 10V), user range setting 2 (0 to 20mA))
*1The main D/A converter module only permits the selection.
(1) Setting procedure
The setting procedure for the main D/A converter module is as follows:
1. Set "Method selection" to "Parameter write".
"CC IE Field Configuration" window Select the main D/A converter module from "List of stations"
[CC IE Field Configuration] [Online] [Parameter Processing of Slave Station]
2. In "Basic module parameter", set "CH D/A conversion enable/disable setting" to "0: Enable".
CHAPTER 8 FUNCTIONS
*1
3. In "Basic module parameter", set up "CH Range setting".
● When switching the output range, set CH Output enable/disable flag (RY10 to RY13, RY20 to RY23) to Disable (OFF)
before setting a value (within the range an external device allows) for CH Digital value (RWw2 to RWw5, RWw12 to
RWw15).
For example, when the output range is from 0 to 5V and CH Digital value (RWw2 to RWw5, RWw12 to RWw15) is
12000, 5V is output. In this condition, if the output range is changed to -10 to 10V, 7.5V is output because CH Digital
value (RWw2 to RWw5, RWw12 to RWw15) remains 12000.
● For the extension D/A converter module, make the settings for each item of "Ext. module 1_Module parameter".

8.8Cyclic Data Update Watch Function
The update intervals of cyclic data are monitored. The last output value is held or cleared when the cyclic transmission
stop status continues longer than the set monitoring time.
The cyclic transmission stop status is the status that the D LINK LED is flashing (Data link in operation (cyclic
transmission stopped)) or off (Data link not performed (disconnected)).
Set whether to hold or clear the output value using the digital output HOLD/CLEAR setting function and the analog
output HOLD/CLEAR setting function.
For the digital output HOLD/CLEAR setting function, refer to the following:
• Digital output HOLD/CLEAR setting function (Page 128, Section 8.16)
For the analog output HOLD/CLEAR setting function, refer to the following:
• Analog output HOLD/CLEAR setting function (Page 92, Section 8.7)
When the cyclic data update interval
Monitoring starts when cyclic data
are received for the first time.
exceeds the set time, the output falls
into the HOLD/CLEAR status.

8.9Scaling Function
The D/A converter module scale-converts the digital value to the set range of the scaling upper limit value and scaling
lower limit value. This function reduces the time and effort to create a program of the scale conversion.
(1) How to interpret the scaling setting
The setting for scaling lower and upper limit values differs depending on whether the factory default range or the
user range is used for the analog output range.
(a) When the factory default range is used for the analog output range
• Set a value corresponding to the upper limit value of the analog output value in the range setting for the
scaling upper limit value.
• Set a value corresponding to the lower limit value of the analog output value in the range setting for the
scaling lower limit value.
(b) When the user range is used for the analog output range
• Set a value corresponding to the gain value for the scaling upper limit value.
• Set a value corresponding to the offset value for the scaling lower limit value.
(2) Calculation of the scaling value
Scale conversion is performed on the digital values using the following formula:
(Values after the decimal point are rounded down during scale conversion.)
• When the output range is 4 to 20mA, 0 to 20mA, 1 to 5V, or 0 to 5V, user range setting 1 (-10 to 10V), or user
range setting 2 (0 to 20mA)
• When the output range is -10 to 10V

● Even if the scaling upper limit value and the scaling lower limit value are set so that the change is larger than the
maximum resolution described in the performance specifications, the resolution will not increase.
● Scaling settings must meet the following condition:
Scaling upper limit value > Scaling lower limit value
● For the extension D/A converter module, make the settings for each item of "Ext. module 1_Module parameter".
