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.

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.
