Under some circumstances, failure to observe the precautions given under " CAUTION" may lead to

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

● In the case of a communication failure 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. These signals are reserved for system use. Do not write any data to the "use prohibited" area 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 analog output status, refer to the Page 82, Section 8.6.

(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.

[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 or power-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.

● Securely fix the module with a DIN rail.

● 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 (extension module), the number of connections/disconnections is limited to 50 times (IEC 61131-2 compliant).

● 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 or less. Failure to do so may result in electric shock or malfunction.

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

[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.

● 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 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.

[Startup and Maintenance Precautions]

CAUTION

● After the first use of the product (terminal block), the number of connections/disconnections is limited to 50 times (IEC 61131-2 compliant).

● Before handling the module or the cable to be connected to the module, 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 D/A CONVERTER MODULE

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

1.1 Application

This module converts the digital data to the analog signal and outputs it to the external devices.

The digital data is set from the master station.

The D/A converter module enables works as follows.

The flow and temperature can be controlled from the master station by using the D/A converter module.

1.1 Application

1.2 Features

The flexible combination is possible.

Extension output module (sink type)

Extension output module (source type)

Extension input module

Various extension modules can be connected according to the application. Connecting the extension module to wires or Ethernet cables is not required.

Extension moduleMain module

D/A converter module

(1) Available flexible system configuration

Adopting the connection block type enables the combination of the main module and extension module.

Because various extension modules can be connected, a flexible configuration can be achieved.

In addition a poor contact of the extension module can be found promptly because the main module always

monitors the connection status of the extension module.

(2) Easy station number setting

Because of the rotary switch on the front of the module, setting and checking the station number are easy.

(3) Response improvement by high-speed conversion

The high-speed conversion of 100µs/channel is achieved.

(4) Reliability by high accuracy

High accuracy is achieved for the maximum value of analog output value: ±0.2% (ambient temperature: 25 ±5°C)

and ±0.3% (ambient temperature: 0 to 55°C).

(5) D/A conversion available at any timing

This function converts a digital value just after input of a trigger output request to an analog value for each

channel.

Combining this function with the external signal assignment function enables the direct input of Trigger output

request from the extension input module, thus the following advantages are provided.

• The analog output can be always executed at a constant timing without influence from the sequence scan or

link scan. The reliability can be improved.

• The analog output can be executed without a program, thus the cost in creating a program can be saved.

(6) Switching scale available

The D/A conversion value to be converted can be scale-converted to any range.

The scale-conversion can be performed without a program according to the digital value to be input, thus the cost

can be saved.

CHAPTER 1 D/A CONVERTER MODULE

(7) Error detection and monitoring available

When a digital value exceeds the range set in advance, an alert is detected. Thus, an error of digital value can be

monitored and outputs of a digital value can be limited.

(8) Output available without influence from the sequence scan or link scan

An error status or alert status can be output from the extension output module by using the external signal

assignment function when an error or alert occurs.

The sequence scan or link scan does not influence this output.

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

An error has

occurred.

D/A converter module

Extension output module

the extension output module directly.

Error lamp

(external device)

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

(9) CC-Link IE Field Network synchronous communication function available

With this function, the D/A converter module can perform D/A conversion synchronized with the operation cycle

of a simple motion module.

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

network.

1.2 Features

(10)Various installation methods

Downward installation

DIN rail

Vertical installation Horizontal installation Horizontal installation

(upside down)

Upward installation

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

(11)Easy module replacement

Because the 2-piece structure is adopted for the terminal block for module power supply and FG and terminal

block for analog output signals, the module can be replaced with the wire connected. In addition, because the

terminal block for analog output signals is the lift-up structure, the terminal block can be lifted only by loosening

the terminal block mounting screw to be removed easily.

(12)Error history confirmation

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

The error history helps the investigation for the cause when a problem occurs.

(13)Easy setting with CC IE Field configuration of GX Works2

Programming is reduced since the parameter can be configured on the screen with the CC IE Field configuration

of GX Works2. In addition, setting status and operation status of modules can be checked easily.

Disabling the D/A conversion for unused channels reduces the

conversion cycles.

Whether to output the D/A conversion value or the offset value can be set

for each channel.

The conversion speed is constant, regardless of the output

enable/disable status.

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, user range setting 2)

Whether to hold or clear the output analog value can be set, according to

the CPU module operating status (RUN, STOP, or stop error).

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 D/A converter module scale-converts the digital value to the set

range of the scaling upper limit value and scaling lower limit value. The

programming for scale conversion can be reduced.

Using this function, the D/A converter module outputs the converted

digital value with the shifting set value added, in analog. Fine adjustment

can be performed easily when the system starts.

An error is output when the digital value is out of the digital input range for

the output range.

This function outputs alert when a digital value is in the range set in

advance.

Using this function, the D/A converter module performs the D/A

conversion at the timing of the execution of Trigger output request.

Trigger output request from the external device to the extension input

module can be used for the D/A conversion.

With this function, the D/A converter module can perform D/A conversion

synchronized with the operation cycle of a simple motion module. This

enables the D/A converter module to operate at the same timing of other

slave stations on the same network.

When a moderate error or major error occurs in the D/A converter

module, this function notifies the master station of the error with the

remote input signal.

One extension I/O module can be connected to one D/A converter

module.

Remote input signals of the D/A converter module can be assigned to

remote output signals of the connected extension output module. In

addition, functions unique to the extension I/O module can be used.

With this function, whether any network error occurs or not can be

checked through GX Works2 connected to the CPU module.

CHAPTER 3 SPECIFICATIONS

Do not access the system area using the REMFR or REMTO instruction. Doing so may lead the module to malfunction.

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

For the parameter area, parameters can be set using the CC IE Field configuration of GX Works2 or using the

REMTO instruction.

The parameter in the parameter area is backed up to the nonvolatile memory.

The parameter backed up to the nonvolatile memory is read to the parameter area when the module power

supply is turned off and on or the module returns from remote reset.

If the parameter is written from the parameter setting of the CC IE Field configuration of GX Works2, it is also

written to the nonvolatile memory at that time. When the parameter is written using the REMTO instruction, it is

written to the nonvolatile memory when Initial data setting request flag (RY9) is turned off and on. At this time, the

parameter is written to the nonvolatile memory even though it is incorrect. When the power supply is turned off

and on with an incorrect parameter written, the incorrect parameter is read from the nonvolatile memory and an

error code is stored to Latest error code (RWr0). Take corrective action according to the error code list.

CHAPTER 6 INSTALLATION AND WIRING

Ex.

CHAPTER 6 INSTALLATION AND WIRING

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

6.1 Station Number Setting

(1) Setting procedure

Set the station number with the rotary switch on the front of the module. The setting value of the station number

becomes valid when the module is powered on. Thus, set the station number when the module is powered off.

• The hundreds and tens places of the station number are set with x10.

• The ones place of the station number is set with x1.

To set the station number to 115, set the switch as shown below.

(2) Setting range

Set the station number from 1 to 120. Setting the value other than 1 to 120 causes a communication error and the

D LINK LED flashes.

● Changing the station number setting switch while the module is powered on causes a minor error and flashes the ERR. LED. Returning the station number setting switches to the previous setting eliminates the error after five seconds and turns off the ERR. LED.

● Do not set a station number duplicated with other station numbers. If the station number is duplicated, a communication error occurs and the D LINK LED does not turn on.

6.2.1 Installation environment

(1) Installation location

Do not install the D/A converter module to the place where:

• Ambient temperature is outside the range of 0 to 55°C;

• Ambient humidity is outside the range of 5 to 95% RH;

• Condensation occurs due to rapid temperature change;

• Corrosive gas or combustible gas is present;

• Conductive powder such as dust and iron powder, oil mist, salinity, or organic solvent is filled;

• The D/A converter module is exposed to direct sunlight;

• A strong electric field or strong magnetic field is generated; and

• The D/A converter module is subject to vibration and shock.

(2) Installation surface

Install the D/A converter module on the flat surface. When the installation surface is uneven, excessive force is

applied to the printed-circuit board and may cause a defect.

6.2.2 Installation position

When installing the D/A converter module in a control panel, provide clearance of 60mm or longer between the module

and the sides of control panel or neighboring modules to ensure good ventilation and an easy module change.

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.

In this case, if the output range is changed to -10 to 10V, 7.5V is output because 12000 remains set for CH Digital value (RWw2 to RWw5).

8.8 Scaling 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. The programming for scale conversion can be reduced.

(1) Concept of scaling setting

The setting for scaling lower and upper limit values differs depending on whether the factory default setting or the

user range setting is used for the analog output range.

(a) When the factory default setting 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 setting 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, or user range

setting 2

• When the output range is -10 to 10V

The last digit indicates the channel where the error has occurred.

upper and lower limit values (dotted line area in the I/O characteristics). However, use the scaling function within the range of the analog output practical range (solid line area in the I/O characteristics). If the value is out of the analog output practical range, the maximum resolution and accuracy may not fall within the range of performance specifications.

● The default digital value "0" may not be appropriate depending on the scaling function setting. Especially in the examples 1, 2, and 3, the out-of-range digital value error (error code: 060) occurs if CH Output enable/disable flag (RY10 to RY13) is turned on with the digital value being "0". The following shows the error codes that occur.

Therefore, set an appropriate digital value within the scaling range before turning on CH Output enable/disable flag (RY10 to RY13).

● When using the user range, note that the scaling lower limit value is equal to the offset value.

8.9 Shift Function

Using this function, the D/A converter module outputs the converted digital value with the shifting set value added, in

analog.

When the shifting set value is changed, it is reflected to the analog output value in real time. Therefore, fine adjustment

can be easily performed when the system starts.

(1) Operation of the shift function

The shifting set value is added to a digital value, and the added digital value is output in analog.

When the scaling function is used, the scale conversion is executed after the addition by the shift function.

The default value of the shifting set value is "0". If some value is set to the shifting set value, the shifting set value

is added regardless of the status change (OFF  ON  OFF) of Initial data setting request flag (RY9).

(2) Setting procedure

1. Set "Parameter write" for "Method selection".

"CC IE Field Configuration" window Select a D/A converter module in "List of stations".

8.10 Digital Value Range Check Function

An error is output when the digital value is out of the digital input range for the output range.

(1) Notification of a check code

When the digital value is greater than the upper limit of the setting range or smaller than the lower limit of the

setting range, it is notified with the following operation.

• The check code is stored in CH Set value check code (RWr2 to RWr5).

For details on check codes, refer to the following.

Page 158, Appendix 2 (3)

• Out-of-range digital value (060) is stored in Latest warning code (RWr1).

• Warning flag (RX7) turns ON.

• The ALM LED flashes.

upper limit value and the scaling lower limit value.

(2) Operation of when an error is notified with a check code

When the digital value is greater than the upper limit of the setting range or smaller than the lower limit of the

setting range, analog output is as follows:

• When the digital value is greater than the upper limit of the setting range, the analog value is output with the

upper limit of the setting range.

• When the digital value is smaller than the lower limit of the setting range, the analog value is output with the

lower limit of the setting range.

The analog output value returns to the normal value when the digital value falls within the setting range. However,

the indicated notification remains as follows:

• Once a check code is stored, it is not reset automatically.

• Warning flag (RX7) remains ON.

• The ALM LED remains flashing.

8.10 Digital Value Range Check Function

(3) Resetting a check code

The check codes can be reset by either of the following two methods.

• Write a digital value within the setting range, and turn on and off Error clear request flag (RYA).

• Turn on and off Initial data setting request flag (RY9).

(4) When the scaling function is set enabled

When Scaling enable/disable setting (address: 010EH) is set to Enable (0), the scale-converted digital value is

the target for the check code.

When the scale-converted digital value is out of the setting range, a slight inaccuracy may be contained in the target digital value for the check code when the check code is stored due to an operational error in the scale conversion.

(5) When the shift function is set enabled

When a value is set for CH Shifting set value (RWw6 to RWw9), the value with the shifting set value added is

the target for the check code.

(6) Operation example of the check code detection

Ex.

When values are set for a channel with output range of -10 to 10V as follows:

•"CH Scaling enable/disable setting": "0: Enable"

•"CH Scaling upper limit value": 24000

•"CH Scaling lower limit value": -24000

•"CH Shifting set value (RWw6 to RWw9)": -200
