 SAFETY PRECAUTIONS 

(Read these precautions before using this product.)

Before using this product, please read this manual and the relevant manuals carefully and pay full attention to safety to handle the product correctly. The precautions given in this manual are concerned with this product only. For the safety precautions of the programmable controller system, refer to the user’s manual for the CPU module used. In this manual, the safety precautions are classified into two levels: " WARNING" and " CAUTION".

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.

[Design Precautions]

WARNING

 Do not write any data to the "system area" of the buffer memory in the intelligent function

module. Also, do not use any "use prohibited" signals as an output signal from the programmable controller CPU to the intelligent function module.

Doing so may cause malfunction of the programmable controller system.

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.

1 OVERVIEW

1.1 Features

(1) Channel isolation (Q64RD-G)

1

The Q64RD-G is a channel-isolated module.

(2) Four-channel temperature measurement by one module

The Q64RD and Q64RD-G are capable of measuring temperatures of 4 channels per module. Detected temperature values can be converted into scaling values (ratios (%)).

(3) Conversion enable/disable setting

You can make a conversion enable/disable setting for each channel. Disabling unused channels for conversion reduces sampling time. It also prevents unnecessary disconnection detection on unused channels.

(4) Standard-compliant RTD is usable

(a) Platinum RTD compliant with JIS (Japanese Industrial Standards) is usable

(Q64RD) Two types of JIS-compliant platinum RTDs (Pt100 and JPt100) can be used. The types can be selected for each channel on GX Developer.

(b) Platinum RTD compliant with JIS or Nickel RTD compliant with DIN is usable

(Q64RD-G) In addition to the above 2 types of JIS-compliant platinum RTDs, DINcompliant nickel RTDs (Ni100) can be used. The types of RTD can be selected for each channel on GX Developer.

(5) Connection of 3-wire or 4-wire RTD is available for each channel

For each channel, 3-wire or 4-wire RTD can be connected. By making the terminals short-circuited, 2-wire RTD can be used.

(6) Disconnection detection

The disconnection of a platinum RTD or cable can be detected on each channel.

(7) Optimal processing selection is available

Selectable options of Sampling processing, Time averaging processing and Count averaging processing, Moving average and Primary delay filter A desired conversion method can be selected for each channel.

(8) Optimal range selection is available

(a) Ranges of -20 to 120 , -180 to 600 and -200 to 850 can be selected

(Q64RD) When Pt100 or JPt100 is used, a desired range can be selected for each channel.

(b) Ranges of 0 to 200 , -20 to 120 , -180 to 600 , -200 to 850 , -60 to 180

can be selected (Q64RD-G) When a platinum RTD, Pt100 or JPt100 is used, a range of 0 to 200 , -20 to 120 , -180 to 600 or -200 to 850 can be selected for each channel. When a nickel RTD, Ni100 is used, a range of -60 to 180 can be selected for each channel.

1 OVERVIEW

(9) Error compensation by offset/gain value setting

Error compensation can be made by setting offset and gain values on each channel. As the offset and gain values, you can make selection from user settings and factory settings.

(10) Warning output

If the temperature detected is outside the preset measurement range, a warning can be output on each channel.

(11) Online Module Change

A module can be replaced without stopping the system. Furthermore, original specifications can be transferred to the replacement module by using a sequence program and by executing the following. (Note that this is for modules of the same model only.)

• Inheritance of offset/gain settings to the new Q64RD/Q64RD-G after online module change

• Transfer of offset/gain settings to the other Q64RD/Q64RD-G mounted on the other slot

(12) Easy setting with GX Configurator-TI

The use of GX Configurator-TI, which is sold separately, reduces sequence programming since Q64RD/Q64RD-G settings can be configured on the screen. In addition, setting status and operating status of modules can be checked easily.

The following table lists the Q64RD/Q64RD-G functions.

This function allows temperature data to be imported by connecting a temperature-measuring resistor. Temperature data are 16-bit signed binary (-2000 to 8500), 32-bit signed binary (-200000 to 850000) and stored into buffer memory.

(1) Sampling processing

Values input by each channel are successively converted into temperature values and output as measured temperature value.

(2) Averaging processing

(a) Time averaging

Temperature conversion is averaged by time on each channel and an averaged value is stored.

(b) Count averaging

Temperature conversion is averaged by count on each channel and an averaged value is stored.

(c) Moving average

Measured temperature values, which are taken at every sampling interval for the specified number of times, are averaged.

(3) Primary delay filter

By a preset time constant, digital output values are smoothed.

This function specifies whether temperature conversion is enabled or disabled on each channel. Setting temperature conversion enable/disable reduces the processing time of

This function changes the measured temperature range. Section 4.5

This function sets the type of the temperature-measuring resistor per channel. Section 4.5

This function detects the disconnection of the connected temperaturemeasuring resistor on each channel. For values to be stored in the CH measured temperature value (buffer

memory addresses 11 to 14, 54 to 61: Un\G11 to 14, Un\G54 to 61) in the case of disconnection detection, any of "Value immediately before disconnection", "Up scale (maximum value of measured temperature range + 5% of measured temperature range)", "Down scale (minimum value of measured temperature range – 5% of measured temperature range)" or "Given value" can be selected.

This function outputs a warning when the temperature is equal to or more than the warning output upper limit value or is equal to or less than the warning output lower limit value.

This function can convert a measured temperature value into a preset range ratio (%) and import it into buffer memory.

This function compensates for an error of a measured temperature value. Section 3.4.20, 4.6

3.2.1 Temperature conversion system

(1) Sampling processing

A temperature input value is converted into a temperature one by one and its measured temperature value is stored into buffer memory. Sampling processing time varies with the number of used channels (number of channels set to enable temperature conversion).

(Processing time) = (number of used channels) (40ms) [Example]

Sampling time is 120ms when three channels, channels 1, 2 and 4, are enabled for conversion.

3 channels 40ms = 120ms

(2) Averaging processing

(a) Time-specified averaging processing

When this option is specified for a channel, values input from the channel are converted into temperature values consecutively for the preset length of time. Then, the total amount of values after eliminating the maximum and minimum values is averaged to be stored into the buffer memory. Averaging processing requires at least 2 times of conversion processing excluding the maximum and the minimum values. The processing count within the preset time varies with the number of used channels (number of channels set to enable temperature conversion).

(Processing count) =

Setting range of preset time is 160 to 5000ms. When setting a value out of the setting range, an error (error code 20 ) occurs. [Example] The sampling count is 4.75 when four channels, channels 1, 2, 3 and 4, are enabled for conversion and the preset time is 760ms.

760ms ÷ (4 channels 40ms) = 4.75 Since the fractional portion of an indivisible value is dropped, the sampling count is 4 times.

(b) Count-specified averaging processing

The time taken to store a count-averaged value into buffer memory varies with the number of used channels (number of channels set to enable temperature conversion).

(Processing time) = (preset count) (number of used channels) (40ms)

Setting range of preset count is 4 to 62500times. When setting a value out of the setting range, an error (error code 30 ) occurs.

[Example] An average value is output ever 320ms when two channels, channels 3 and 4, are enabled for conversion and the preset count is 4.

4 times (2 channels 40ms) = 320ms

(c) Processing using moving average

CH Offset/Gain Setting Status Signal

(1) Input signals

(1) If the module is in the normal mode at power-on or resetting of the programmable controller

CPU, this signal turns on to start temperature conversion as soon as it gets ready.

(2) When this signal (X0) is off in the normal mode, temperature conversion is not performed. In the

offset/gain setting mode, temperature conversion is performed even if this signal (X0) is off.

(3) This signal (X0) turns off when:

• The module is in the offset/gain setting mode;

• The Q64RD/Q64RD-G is in a watchdog timer error 1

(1) This signal is used as an interlock condition to turn on/off the CH Offset Setting Request (Y1,

Y3, Y5, Y7)/CH Gain Setting Request (Y2, Y4, Y6, Y8) when offset/gain setting is made.

(2) When the CH Offset Setting Request (Y1, Y3, Y5, Y7) or CH Gain Setting Request (Y2,

Y4, Y6, Y8) is turned from ON to OFF in the offset/gain setting mode, this signal (X1 to 4) corresponding to the user-set, conversion-enabled channel turns on.

(2) Conversion processing is not performed when this signal (X9) is off. (3) This signal (X9) turns off when:

• The Module Ready (X0) is off in the normal mode; or

• The Operating Condition Setting Request (Y9) is on.

(1) The input circuit for the platinum RTD of the conversion-enabled channel turns ON the

Disconnection Detection Signal (XC) when any input signal line including the platinum RTD is disconnected. For the channel where disconnection is detected, a value based on the Conversion setting for disconnection detection (buffer memory address 148: Un\G148) is stored in the CH measured temperature value (buffer memory addresses 11 to 14, 54 to 61: Un\G11 to 14, Un\G54 to 61). Conversion of the channels not disconnected is continued.

(2) For measured temperature values to be stored when the Disconnection Detection Signal (XC)

turns ON, any of "Value immediately before disconnection", "Up scale (maximum value of measured temperature range + 5% of measured temperature range)", "Down scale (minimum value of measured temperature range – 5% of measured temperature range)" or "Given value" can be selected. (Refer to Section 3.2.2.)

(3) Removing the cause of disconnection and turning ON the Error Clear Request (YF) turns OFF

the Disconnection Detection Signal (XC).

(4) When the line connection is recovered, the measured temperature value update is restarted

independently of the Disconnection Detection Signal (XC) reset.

(1) This signal turns on when the measured temperature value has fallen out of the temperature

range set in the warning output upper/lower limit values (buffer memory addresses 86 to 117: Un\G86 to 117) on any of the conversion-enabled channels.

(2) This signal turns off automatically as soon as the measured temperature values returned to

within the ranges on conversion-enabled all channel.

(1) This signal (XE) turns on when the measured temperature values of all conversion-enabled

channels are stored into buffer memory after power-on or hardware reset.

(2) When averaging processing is performed, this signal also turns on when the measured

temperature values are stored into buffer memory after completion of averaging processing.

(3) This signal (XE) varies as described below depending on whether the Operating Condition

Setting Completion Signal (X9) has turned on or off.

• When the Operating Condition Setting Completion Signal (X9) has turned on (stop conversion)

1) Temperature measurement of the enabled channel is started.

2) After the measured temperature values are stored into buffer memory, the conversion

completion flags (buffer memory address 10: Un\G10) are turned on.

3) This signal (XE) is turned on after the measured temperature values of all conversion-

enabled channels are stored into buffer memory.

• When the Operating Condition Setting Completion Signal (X9) has turned off (conversion stop)

1) The conversion completion flags (buffer memory address 10: Un\G10) of all channels are

turned off.

3.4.4 CH time/count/moving average/time constant setting (Un\G1 to 4)

(1) For each channel for which Averaging processing specification (buffer memory

address 9: Un\G9) and Extended averaging processing specification (buffer memory address 134: Un\G134) is made, set the averaging time, averaging count, the number for moving average or time constant for primary delay filter.

(2) Allowable setting range is as follows:

Processing method Set value

Time averaging 160 to 5000 (ms)

Count averaging 4 to 62500 (times) 1

Moving average 4 to 60 (times)

Primary delay filter 40 to 5000 (ms)

Setting any value outside the above range will result in an error and the operation will be performed under the previous setting.

1 When setting 32768 times or more in the sequence program, set the count

in hexadecimal. For instance, set F42

H to specify 62500 times.

(3) This setting will be invalid if sampling is specified for Averaging processing

specification (buffer memory address 9: Un\G9) or Extended averaging processing specification (buffer memory address 134: Un\G134).

(4) At power-on or reset, this is preset to 0000

H. Change the setting according to the

processing method.

(5) The Operating Condition Setting Request (Y9) must be turned on/off to make this

setting valid.

(1) When replacing the Q64RD whose first 5 digits of product information are 07071

or earlier with the one of 07072 or later, there is compatibility within the setting range of the Averaging processing specification (buffer memory address 9: (Un\G9). Existing programs can be utilized without change. However, when setting the moving average or primary delay filter, make setting in the Extended averaging processing specification area (buffer memory address 134: Un\G134).

(2) Use the Extended averaging processing specification (buffer memory address 134:

(Un\G134)) to set the averaging processing. In this case, it is not required to use the Averaging processing specification (buffer memory address 9: (Un\G9)). (Any value written to the area is ignored.)

(3) The relation between Averaging processing specification (buffer memory address

9: Un\G9) and Extended averaging processing specification (buffer memory address 134: Un\G134) is as follows:

• When 1

H to 4H (other than 0H) is written into Extended averaging processing

specification, the value of this area becomes valid. (The setting of Extended averaging processing specification acts on Averaging processing specification.)

• It becomes valid at the ON/OFF timing of the Operating Condition Setting Request (Yn9).

(4) Refer to Section 3.4.21 for Extended averaging processing specification (buffer

memory address 134: Un\G134).

(5) When setting the Q64RD-G with the utility package, the initial setting using the

averaging processing specification does not exist. Make the initial setting using Extended averaging processing specification.

in normal temperature conversion.

(2) You can make check on each channel using the conversion completion flag.

(3) The conversion completion flag is cleared when the Operating Condition Setting

Request (Y9) is turned from ON to OFF.

(4) The Conversion Completion Flag (XE) turns on when conversions of all channels

set for conversion enable are completed.

• When Conversion enable/disable setting is turned from 1 (disable) to 0 (enable) After the measured temperature value is stored into buffer memory, the conversion completion flag of the corresponding channel is turned to 1.

• When Conversion enable/disable setting is turned from 0 (enable) to 1 (disable) The conversion completion flag of the corresponding channel is turned to 0.

3.4.7 CH measured temperature value (16bit) (Un\G11 to 14)

(1) The "RTD value" input from the platinum temperature-measuring resistor is

converted into a "temperature value" to detect a temperature.

(2) The value of the measured temperature to the first decimal place is multiplied by

10 and the result is stored into buffer memory in 16-bit signed binary. (All digits to the right of the second decimal place is rounded down.)

(3) A negative measured temperature value is displayed as two's complement.

(4) At power-on or reset, all channels are set to 0.

3.4.15 CH scaling value (Un\G50 to 53)

(1) The measured temperature value within the scaling range set for the CH scaling

range upper/lower limit values (buffer memory address 62 to 77: Un\G62 to 77) is

scaled to the scaling width set for the CH scaling width upper/lower limit values

(buffer memory address 78 to 85: Un\G78 to 85) and the result is stored.

MELSEC-Q

(2) The following is how to calculate the scaling value.

Scaling value =

(Scaling width upper limit value - Scaling width lower limit value)

Measured Temperature value - Scaling range lower limit value

Scaling range upper limit value - Scaling range lower limit value

[Example] To scale a temperature to a percent When the CH1 measured temperature value of 360 measured temperature value = 360000 (32bit) ) is scaled at the following settings: Scaling range: -100 to 500 (lower limit value = -100000, upper limit value =

500000) Scaling width: 0 to 100% (lower limit value = 0, upper limit value = 100)

scaling range upper/lower limit values (buffer memory address 62 to 77: Un\G62 to 77) or CH scaling width upper/lower limit values (buffer memory address 78 to 85: Un\G78 to 85), it will not result in an error and the scaling value will be output using the above calculation expression to make calculation.

(2) If the temperature measured is outside the range set by the upper and lower

limit values of the scaling range, the value set as the upper or lower limit value of the scaling width is stored into the buffer memory.

3.4.20 CH offset/gain temperature set value (Un\G118 to 133)

(1) Offset/gain setting (error compensation) is a function designed to compensate for

the value at any two points (offset value/gain value) within the operating range when the proper temperature conversion value is not available at a system start or when the measurement range type is changed.

(2) When the Offset Setting Request/Gain Setting Request (Y1 to 8) is turned on in

the offset/gain setting mode, the measured temperature value is corrrected using the set value written to this area. (Setting in 0.001 increments.)

[Example] To set to 80 ..... Store 80000.

4.1 Handling Precautions

(1) Do not drop the module or subject it to heavy impact.

(2) Do not remove the PCB of the module from its case. Doing so may cause the

module to fail.

(3) Be careful not to let foreign particles such as swarf or wire chips enter the module.

They may cause a fire, mechanical failure or malfunction.

(4) The top surface of the module is covered with a protective film to prevent foreign

objects such as wire burrs from entering the module during wiring. Do not remove this film until the wiring is complete. Before operating the system, be sure to remove the film to provide adequate ventilation.

(5) Tighten the screws such as module fixing screws within the following ranges.

Loose screws may cause short circuits, failures, or malfunctions.

Screw location Tightening torque range

Module fixing screw (M3 screw) 1

Terminal block screw (M3 screw) 0.42 to 0.58 N.m

Terminal block mounting screw (M3.5 screw) 0.66 to 0.89 N.m

1 The module can be easily fixed onto the base unit using the hook at the top of the

module. However, it is recommended to secure the module with the module fixing screw if the module is subject to significant vibration.

(6) To mount the module, while pressing the module mounting lever located in the

lower part of the module, fully insert the module fixing projection(s) into the hole(s) in the base unit and press the module until it snaps into place. Incorrect mounting may cause malfunction, failure or drop of the module. When using the programmable controller in an environment of frequent vibrations, fix the module with a screw.

4.4 Wiring

The wiring precautions and examples of module connection are provided below.

4.4.1 Wiring Instructions

In order to optimize the functions of the Q64RD/Q64RD-G and ensure system reliability, external wiring that is protected from noise is required. Please observe the following precautions for external wiring:

(1) Use separate cables for the AC control circuit and the external input signals of the

Q64RD/Q64RD-G to avoid the influence of the AC side surges and inductions.

(2) Do not run the module cables near, or bundle them with, the main circuit and high-

voltage cables and the load cables from other than the programmable controller. Not doing so will make the module more susceptible to noises, surges and inductions.

(3) Earth the shielded of the shielded cable to FG of the programmable controller.

However, depending on the external noise conditions, external earthing on the RTD side may be recommended.

(4) Insulation-sleeved crimping terminals cannot be used with the terminal block.

It is recommended to fit mark tubes or insulation tubes to the wire connection parts of the crimping terminals.

4 SETUP AND PROCEDURES BEFORE OPERATION

MELSEC-Q

POINT

 Check the offset and gain values in the actual operating status.  By turning ON the user range write request (YA), the offset and gain values are

stored into the E

2

PROM and will not be erased at power-off.

 Make offset/gain setting within the measured temperature range.

If setting is made outside the measured temperature range, the resolution and accuracy may not fall within the ranges of the performance specifications.

 Offset/gain setting may be made for two or more channels simultaneously.  Do not set the offset and gain values simultaneously.

Specifying them at the same time will cause an error, lighting up the ERROR/ERR. LED.

 If an error occurs during offset/gain setting, setting can be continued on another

channel or the like. However, since the error remains occurring, turn on the Error Clear Request (YF) when you want to clear the error.

 At the time of offset/gain setting, turn ON the user range write request (YA) to

write the values to the E Data can be written to the E To prevent accidental write to the E

PROM.

 If an error (error code: 40

) occurs during offset/gain setting, re-set the correct offset/gain value. The offset/gain value of the channel where the error has occurred is not written to the Q64RD. ( 1 indicates the corresponding channel number.)

 Module Ready (X0) turns from OFF to ON when the offset/gain setting mode

switches to the normal mode by the dedicated instruction (G(P).OFFGAN) or the setting of the mode switching setting (buffer memory addresses 158, 159: Un\G158, Un\G159). Note that initial setting processing will be executed if there is a sequence program that makes initial setting when Module ready (X0) turns ON. Also, the error is cleared when the mode is switched.

 The areas of Factory default offset/gain value/User range settings offset/gain

value/User range settings offset/gain resistance value (buffer memory address 160 to 255: Un\G160 to 255) are related with the user range save/restore function and allows users to re-set the offset/gain values easily in the case of online module change. These area are not used for the offset/gain setting.

5.2.1 Handling precautions

The following explains the precautions on using the GX Configurator-TI:

(1) For safety

Since GX Configurator-TI is add-in software for GX Developer, read "Safety Precautions" and the basic operating procedures in the GX Developer Operating Manual.

(2) About installation

The GX Configurator-TI is add-in software for GX Developer Version 4 or later. Therefore, GX Configurator-TI must be installed on the personal computer that has already GX Developer Version 4 or later installed.

(3) Screen error of Intelligent function module utility

Insufficient system resource may cause the screen to be displayed inappropriately while using the Intelligent function module utility. If this occurs, close the Intelligent function module utility, GX Developer (program, comments, etc.) and other applications, and then start GX Developer and Intelligent function module utility again.

(4) To start the Intelligent function module utility

(a) In GX Developer, select "QCPU (Q mode)" for PLC series and specify a

project. If any PLC series other than "QCPU (Q mode)" is selected, or if no project is specified, the Intelligent function module utility will not start.

(b) Multiple Intelligent function module utilities can be started.

However, [Open parameters] and [Save parameters] operations under [Intelligent function module parameter] are allowed for one Intelligent function module utility only. Only the [Monitor/test] operation is allowed for the other utilities

(5) Switching between two or more Intelligent function module utilities
