[DESIGN PRECAUTIONS]

!

WARNING

 When a communication error occurs on PROFIBUS-DP, the status of the faulty station is as

follows. Configure an interlock circuit in the sequence program using the communication status information (input X1) so that the system can operate safely. Failure to do so may result in an accident due to an incorrect output or malfunction. (1) The input data from the master station remains unchanged from the data prior to the

communication error.

(2) When the master station becomes faulty, the output status of the QJ71PB93D will be as in

the parameter settings of the master station.

(3) When any QJ71PB93D is down, the output state of other slave stations will be in

accordance with the parameter settings of the master station.

 Do not output (turn on) the "Use prohibited" signal as the output signal to an intelligent function

module from the CPU module. Writing data into the "system area" or outputting a signal for "Use prohibited" may cause system malfunction in the programmable controller.

(4) Swapping of I/O data

When I/O data is sent/received from/to the master station, their upper and lower bytes can be swapped. Though PROFIBUS-DP handles the upper and lower bytes of I/O data differently depending on the master station type, the I/O data need not be swapped in a sequence program. (Refer to Section 4.1.4)

(5) Start/stop of refreshing the input send area

Refreshing of send data from the QJ71PB93D to the master station is controllable by an output signal (Y00). Providing an interlock disables the buffer memory data from being sent to the master station at error occurrence. (Refer to Section 4.1.1)

(6) Extended trouble notification function

Data stored in the extended trouble information area of the buffer memory can be sent to the master station as extended trouble information faulty, for example. When the host is not faulty anymore, notify the master station that there is no fault. (Refer to Section 3.4.2(9))

2.2 When Used in a Redundant System

For the precautions on when using an extension base unit, refer to the User's Manual (Redundant System) for the CPU module used.

2.3 Precautions for Configuring a System

(1) Precaution for station number setting

(a) If a station number different from the one of the currently operating station is

set during I/O data communication, the communication is suspended to execute the setting.

It is restarted after completion of the station number setting.

(b) Do not change the operation mode during execution of the station number

setting.

Doing so may disable proper station number setting or mode change.

(2) Precaution for parameter writing

(a) If a parameter based on a station number setting different from the one of the

currently operating station is written to the QJ71PB93D that is exchanging I/O data, the I/O data communication is suspended. It is restarted after completion of parameter writing.

(b) Do not change the operation mode from the sequence program during

parameter writing.

Doing so may disable proper station number setting or mode change.

(c) Do not write parameters from multiple GX Configurator-DPs to a single

QJ71PB93D at the same time.

Doing so makes the parameter values of the QJ71PB93D incorrect.

(3) When switching the operation mode using Y11/X11 on the

sequence program

Be sure to switch the mode while the module READY signal (X1D) of the QJ71PB93D is ON. If data are read from or written to the buffer memory with the X1D status ignored, the CPU module may detect an error to stop the sequence calculation.

(2) How to prevent data inconsistency

The I/O data separation prevention function is executed by either of the following methods. This function is not available when the MOV or FROM/TO instruction is used for buffer memory reading/writing. (a) Using automatic refresh

Automatic refresh can be set in GX Configurator–DP. To use the data separation prevention function at the time of automatic refresh, check the “Enable Autorefresh” and “Consistency” boxes in the “Buffer Devices” area on the parameter setting window.

REMARKS

For the automatic refresh setting method, refer to Section 5.3.1.

(b) Using dedicated instruction

Using the BBLKRD or BBLKWR instruction to read or write data prevents I/O data separation. (Refer to Chapter 8)

REMARKS

Refer to Section 7.3.1 and 7.3.2 for program examples of the I/O data communication using dedicated instructions.

(3) Precautions

(a) Applicable CPU module

To utilize the separation prevention function, use a CPU module whose first five digits of the serial No. is "02092" or later. (Refer to Section 2.3)

(b) Transmission delay time caused by the separation prevention function

The delay time in transmission between the CPU module and master station is lengthened because the QJ71PB93D have to wait for reading from or writing to the CPU module and data transfer from/to the master station. (Refer to Chapter 6) The separation prevention function can be disabled in the automatic refresh setting. (Refer to Section 5.3.1 (2)) Disable the separation prevention function when it is not necessary.

(c) When the separation prevention function is enabled in the automatic refresh

setting Dedicated instructions are not executable. (They are not processed.) They can be executed when the separation prevention function is disabled in the automatic refresh setting.

5.7.2 Wiring precautions

As one of the requirements to give full play to QJ71PB93D’s functions and make up the system with high reliability, it is necessary to have an external wiring unsusceptible to an influence of noise. Precautions against external wiring of QJ71PB93D are described below.

(1) Communication cable wiring

Do not install the QJ71PB93D communication cable together with the main circuit, power lines and/or load carrying wires for other than the programmable controller, or bring them close. Doing so may cause the QJ71PB93D to be affected by noise and surge induction.

(2) Wiring from I/O modules among programmable controllers

Keep the PROFIBUS cable away from I/O module cables as much as possible.
