EC Directives6
6EC Directives
The MULTIPLE I/O TERMINAL conforms to EMC as follows:
EMC Directives
OMRON devices that comply with EC Directives also conform to the r elated
EMC standards so tha t they can be more e asil y built in to ot her devices or the
overall machine. The actual products have been checked for conformity to
EMC standards (see the following note). Whether the products conform to the
standards in the system used by the custo mer, however, must be che cked by
the customer.
EMC-related perfor ma nce o f th e O M RON devices that c omp ly wi th EC Di re ctives will vary depending on the configuration, wi ring, an d other conditio ns of
the equipment or control panel on which the OMRON devices are installed .
The customer must, therefore, perform the fi nal c heck to confir m th at devices
and the overall machine conform to EMC standards.
The MULTIPLE I/O TERMINA L products that com ply wit h EC Direct ives must
be installed as follows:
1,2,3...1. MULTIPLE I/O TERMINAL products are designed for installation inside
control panels. All MULTIPLE I/O TERMINAL products must be i nstalled
within control panels.
2. Used reinforced insulation or double in sulati on for the DC power supp lies
used for the communications power s upply, internal circuit power supply,
and the I/O power supplies.
3. MULTIPLE I/O TERMINAL products that meet EC Directives also meet the
Common Emission Standard (EN50081-2). However, radiated emission
(at 10 m) will vary with the overall configuration of the contro l panel, other
devices connected to the contr ol panel, and other conditions. You must
theref ore con firm that E C Direct ives are sati sfied f or t he ov era ll machi ne or
device.
4. MULTIPLE I/O TERMINA L products that meet EC Dir ectives have configurations with less than 30 m of I/O wiring, and less than 10 m of power supply wiring.
The following examples show means of reducing noise.
1,2,3...1. Noise from the communications cable can be reduced by installing a ferrite
core on the communications cable within 10 cm of the DeviceNet Mas ter
Unit.

InitializationWhen the Communications Unit is started, it automatically recognizes the
configuration of the I/O Units and registers this status as the n ormal co nfiguration (in RAM memor y). At the same time, addr esses 0 to 7 are alloca ted to
the I/O Units in ascend ing order from the I/O Unit c losest to the Communications Unit. The se pr ocesses are performed ea ch t im e th e p ower is turned ON.

FunctionsSection 1-2
Remote I/O communications with the DeviceNet Master Uni t are carried out
by a MULTIPLE I/O TERMINAL base d on the registered co nfiguration. Whe n
the power to the Communications Unit is turned ON, the bits allocated to the I/
O Units can be used to check the status (bits 0 to 7 of the first word) of the
Communications Unit.

2. For details of data exchange timing, see 6-1-1 I/O Response Time.
Error ProcessingEven if an error occurs in the I/O Unit interface after initialization is completed,
DeviceNet communications will continue normally. Therefore, an error processing program section must be included in the CPU Unit to check the status
of the Communications Unit for errors that have occurred and to identify the
error type and location.
1-2-3Allocating I/O
This section explains how words for a MULTIPLE I/O TERMINAL are allocated in the output area and input area of the Master. For details of remote I/O
functions in the output area and input area of the Master such as word specification, fixed allocation, and user-set al loca tio n, refer to the DeviceNet Opera-tion Manual (W267).
Fixed AllocationThe output area and i nput area corresponding to the Communica tions Unit
node number for a MULTIP LE I/O TERMINAL are as shown in the following
diagram.
Output Area
The output area contains outp ut bits in the orde r that I/O Units are co nnecte d
on the I/O Unit interface.
Input Area
The input area contains the Communications Unit status (two words), and
input bits in the order that I/O Units are connected on the I/O Unit interface.

Allocation PrecautionsNote the following precautions when starting the DeviceNet Network.
Limits on the Total Number of Input and Output Points for a Master Unit
A maximum of 1,024 in puts and outpu ts can be c ontrolled by one Com munications Unit (DRT1-COM). The number of I/O points for each node, however,
depends on the Master Unit. For example, with the CV-series Master Unit
(CVM1-DRM21-V1) or the C200HX/HG/HE and C200HS Master Unit
(C200HW-DRM21-V1), up to 512 inputs and up to 512 outputs can be used at
each node. Therefore, connect I/O Uni ts within a range that does not exceed
the number of I/O points for each Master Unit node. The following table shows
the I/O size of each Unit.
Unit modelNumber of
inputs
DRT1-COM32 points0 point
GT1-ID16(-1), GT1-ID16MX(-1), GT1-ID16ML(-1)*,
The GT1-ROP08 (Relay Output Unit with Power Relay) has 8 actual outputs
but, as a MULTIPL E I/O TERMINAL, the number of outputs allocated to the
Master Unit is 16.
Calculation Example
When one GT1-DA04MX Analog Output Unit and three GT1-AD08 Analog
Input Units are used, th e tot al num ber of inp u t p oin ts and outp ut p oin ts is calculated as follows:
Total Number of Input Points:
Communications Unit (Status) + Analog Input Units x 3
= 32 points + 128 points x 3 = 416 points
Total Number of Output Points:
Analog Output Units x 1
= 64 points

1-2-5I/O Configuration Changes
The I/O Unit interface automatically recognizes the I/O Unit configuration each
time the Communications Unit is star ted up, and stores this as the normal
configuration.
Note1. If the I/O Unit configuration is c hanged wh ile the Communications Unit is
turned ON, a configuration error will occur. Do not change the I/O Unit configuration while power is being supplied to the Communications Unit.
2. If a configuration error occurs on the I/O Unit interface, I/O refreshing of all
I/O Units will stop. Even if a configuration er ror occurs, communications
with the DeviceNet Network will continue, using the initial I/O Unit configuration. An error processi ng p rogram se cti on mus t the re fore be includ ed i n
the CPU Unit to regular ly check whether or not a configuratio n error has
occurred (status bit 1) and to process abnormal I/O Unit addresses.
If the I/O Unit configuration is changed, perform the following operations,
according to the DeviceNet area al loc at ion meth od. For details abou t I/O all ocation, refer to DeviceNet Operation Manual (W267).
The bits corresponding
to I/O Unit with errors
are turned ON. Bits 8 to
15 correspond to
addresses 0 to 7.
1: Error
0: No error, or not
part of network
The bits corresponding
to registered I/O Units
are turned ON. Bits 0 to
7 correspond to
addresses 0 to 7.
1: Registered
0: Not registered
Default AllocationsBecause the allocation size of the Communications Unit changes together
with changes to th e I/O Unit configuration, a verification er ror will occur on
DeviceNet if the scan list is enabled, as follows:
• Master Unit 7-segment display will show d6, Slave I/O size mismatch.
• Master status bits 14 and 7 will turn ON.
Perform the following operations, according to the status of the input/output
areas.
Allocation Areas Do Not Overlap with Other Slaves
Remote I/O communication s will be performed unchanged wi th the new configurat io n. C heck the V erif ic at i o n Error Bit and, if require d, pe r form processing
to disable the allocated words in the CPU Unit. Also check the number of
points for the changed I/O Unit and its allocation ar ea on the I/O Unit interface, and re-register the scan list (first set the Scan List Enable software
switch to OFF, and then set it to ON after checking the I/O size).
Allocation Areas Overlap with Other Slaves
In this case, I/O area duplication will also occur on the DeviceNet, as follows:
• Master Unit 7-segment display will show d0, I/O area duplication.
• Master status bits 14 and 4 will turn ON.
Check the Verification Error Bit, and per form processing to disable the allocated words in the CPU Unit. Also ch ang e the S lave node number so that th e
allocation area doe s not overlap with any other, and re-register the sca n list
(first set the Scan Lis t Enable software switch to OFF, and then set it to ON
after checking the I/O size).
Note If the scan list is disabled, there will be no changes made in the DeviceNet
Master Unit, even if the Communication s Unit input/output sizes ch ange. Be
sure to use the Scan List Enable Mode for normal operations.
