1
!WARNING It is extremely important that the Unit is used for its specified purpose and
under the specified conditions, especially in applications that can directly or
indirectly affect human life. You must consult your OMRON representative
before using it in a system in the above-mentioned applications.
3Safety Precautions
!WARNING Never attempt to disassemble any Units or touch the terminal block while
power is being supplied. Doing so may result in serious electrical shock or
electrocution.
!WARNING Provide safety measures in external circuits (i.e., not in the Programmable
Controller), including the following items, to ensure safety in the system if an
abnormality occurs due to malfunction of the PLC or another external factor
affecting the PLC operation. Not doing so may result in serious accidents.
• Emergency stop circuits, interlock circuits, limit circuits, and similar safety
measures must be provided in external control circuits.
• The PLC will stop operation when its self-diagnosis function detects any
error or when a severe failure alarm (FALS) instruction is executed. As a
countermeasure for such errors, external safety measures must be provided to ensure safety in the system.
xiv
Operating Environment Precautions
• The PLC outputs may remain ON or OFF due to deposits on or burning of
the output relays, or destruction of the output transistors. As a countermeasure for such problems, external safety measures must be provided
to ensure safety in the system.
• When the 24V DC output (service power supply to the PLC) is overloaded
or short-circuited, the voltage may drop and result in the outputs being
turned OFF. As a countermeasure for such problems, external safety
measures must be provided to ensure safety in the system.
• SmartSlice I/O Terminals will continue operating even if one or more I/O
Units is removed from or falls out of the SmartSlice I/O Terminal, i.e., the
other I/O Units will continue control operations, including outputs. As a
countermeasure for such a possibility, external safety measures must be
provided to ensure safety in the system.
!WARNING The CPU Unit refreshes I/O even when the program is stopped (i.e., even in
PROGRAM mode). Confirm safety thoroughly in advance before changing the
status of any part of memory allocated to Output Units, Special I/O Units, or
CPU Bus Units. Any changes to the data allocated to any Unit may result in
unexpected operation of the loads connected to the Unit. Any of the following
operations may result in changes to memory status.

6Conformance to EC Directives
6-1Applicable Directives
•EMC Directives
• Low voltage directive
6-2Concepts
OMRON units complying with EC Directives also conform to related product
standards making them easier to incorporate in other units or machines. The
actual products have been checked for conformity to product standards.
Whether the products conform to the standards in the system used by the
customer, however, must be checked by the customer.
Product related performance of OMRON units complying with EC Directives
will vary depending on the configuration, wiring, and other conditions of the
equipment or control panel in which OMRON devices are installed. The customer must, therefore, perform final checks to confirm that units and the overall system conforms to product standards.
xvii
A Declaration of Conformity for the GRT1-PRT PROFIBUS Communication
Unit can be requested at your nearest OMRON representative.
6-3Conformance to EC Directives
PROFIBUS units should be installed as follows, for the complete configuration
to meet the EC directives:
1,2,3...1. The units are designed for installation inside control panels. All units must
be installed within control panels.
2. Use reinforced insulation or double insulation for the DC power supplies
used for the communication power supply, internal circuit power supply,
and the I/O power supplies.
3. The GRT1-PRT PROFIBUS Communication Unit product meets the generic emission standard. However as EMC performance can vary in the final installation, additional measures may be required to meet the
standards. It should therefore be verified that the overall machine or device
also meets the relevant standards. You must therefore confirm that EC directives are met for the overall machine or device, particularly for the radiated emission requirement (10 m).
SECTION 1
Features and Specifications
This section provides an introductory overview of the GRT1 series SmartSlice I/O Units and the GRT1-PRT PROFIBUS,
Communication Unit, its functions and how to setup and configure it for a PROFIBUS network.
The GRT1-Series SmartSlice I/O Units are building-block style I/O devices,
which can be expanded in small I/O increments. This provides the possibility
to configure I/O systems which exactly match the various customer applications. SmartSlice I/O Units communicate with the PROFIBUS DP-V1 Master
Unit by remote I/O communication through a PROFIBUS Communication
Unit. The figure below shows a typical I/O configuration.

simply by switching a pin on the PROFIBUS Communication Unit’s DIP
switch. Once the table has been registered, the actual configuration is compared to the registered configuration each time that the power is turned ON. If
the configuration does not match, a status flag can be turned ON in the
PROFIBUS DP-V1 Master to indicate the error.

Online Replacement of I/O
Units
Parameter Backup and
Restore
The communication error log in the PROFIBUS Communication Unit can
record the four most recent communication errors in the PROFIBUS DP network and the 64 most recent SmartSlice I/O Unit errors. The communication
error information (communication error cause code and communication power
supply voltage when error occurred) can be read with an explicit message
command or from the Configurator.
The SmartSlice I/O Unit’s circuit section can be removed, so it is not necessary to turn OFF the power to replace a Unit. Communication can be maintained in the remaining (connected) Units.
Before replacing a SmartSlice I/O Unit for maintenance, the parameter data
set in the I/O Unit can be backed up in the PROFIBUS Communication Unit
by switching a pin on the Communication Unit’s DIP switch. After the I/O Unit
has been replaced, another DIP switch operation can be used to select the
mode that automatically writes the backed-up parameter data to the appropriate Units.

1-2-2System Configuration
The PROFIBUS Communication Unit connects to the Master by a network
cable and it connects to the SmartSlice I/O Units by directly coupling the Units
with slide connectors.
I/O Data ExchangeThe I/O Unit data in the PROFIBUS Communication Unit is shared with the
Master’s Input and Output Areas through the PROFIBUS DP network. The I/O
Units’ data is collected in the PROFIBUS Communication Unit and exchanged
with the Master asynchronously.

GRT1-PRT Configuration
DTM
The GRT1-PRT DTM is an executable component, provided by OMRON,
which requires an FDT Container program like OMRON’s Cx-Profibus (refer
also to Appendix A-9 FDT/DTM Technology). The DTM runs inside this FDT
Container and provides its own User Interfaces. It can access GRT1-PRT and
SmartSlice I/O Unit data through the PROFIBUS Master unit and present that
to the user. It can also save the settings, using the features of the FDT Container program.
The GRT1-PRT DTM, provides the user with the following features.
• Parameter configuration
• I/O Configuration
• Configuration of individual SmartSlice I/O Units
• Monitoring of the SmartSlice I/O System
Note In order to configure individual SmartSlice I/O Units, the PROFIBUS Master
Unit must support PROFIBUS DP-V1, Class 2 functionality. The OMRON
CS1/CJ1W-PRM21 PROFIBUS Master Units support this functionality as of
revision 3.

Monitoring the SmartSlice
I/O System
Configuration via GSD FileThe GSD file concept is the older, and consequently more widely used means
The PROFIBUS Parameter User Interface allows the user to set operational
parameters for the communication between the PROFIBUS Master and the
GRT1-PRT. The User Interface provides entries to set
• the device address (i.e. defining it for communication)
• the PROFIBUS group allocation for the GRT1-PRT.
• the FINS fragment length, used in acyclic communication.
• Specific PROFIBUS Master Unit behaviour with respect to this slave
device.
The I/O Configuration User Interface allows the user to define the configuration of SmartSlice I/O Units attached to the PROFIBUS Communication Unit.
It also allows the user to make parameter settings for individual SmartSlice
I/O Units.
The I/O Configuration is used by the PROFIBUS Master Unit when mapping
the I/O data of individual SmartSlice I/O Units on to the PLC memory areas. It
is also sent by the PROFIBUS Master Unit to the GRT1-PRT for verification
when establishing communication. The I/O Configuration sent by the Master
Unit must match the physical configuration attached to the GRT1-PRT
PROFIBUS Communication Unit, in order to proceed with I/O data exchange.
The Monitoring User Interfaces allows the user to read information from individual SmartSlice I/O Units. It also provides a means to read the Error Log of
the GRT1-PRT PROFIBUS Communication Unit.
of configuration. The GSD file for the GRT1-PRT is a text based file, which
contains all options required to configure a PROFIBUS Master Unit. The file
can be loaded by the configuration software of the Master Units, which will
then present the information to the user to allow the appropriate selections to
be made.
The drawback of the GSD file is that- unlike the GRT1-PRT DTM - it only provides setting options for PROFIBUS DP and PROFIBUS DP-V1. The GSD file
does not provide the means to initiate parameter data transfer via PROFIBUS
DP-V1 Class 2 messages. These have to be programmed in the Master Unit it
self.
Third-Party Master UnitsThe GSD file for GRT1-PRT can be used to configure most third-party Master
Units. The GRT1-PRT GSD file contains all the necessary parameters to
allow the user to configure the Master Unit for I/O data exchange.
Note1. The GRT1-PRT DTM can also be used in third-party configuration soft-
ware provided that this software supports the FDT/DTM concept.
2. With the Cx-Profibus FDT Container OMRON also provides a Generic
Slave DTM, an FDT/DTM interface between the FDT Container program
and GSD files. Alternatively, this DTM can be used to setup a Master Unit,
using the GRT1-PRT GSD file. This Generic Slave DTM however, does
not provide the means to initiate PROFIBUS DP-V1 messages.
Downloading the
Configuration
After setting up the configuration, it must be downloaded to the PROFIBUS
Master Unit. The download process depends on the Master Unit used.

Basic Operating Procedure
1-4-2Preparations for Use
The following procedure shows the basic steps required before using the
PROFIBUS Communication Unit and the SmartSlice I/O Units.
Initial Setup Procedure
1,2,3...1. Mount the GRT1-PRT Unit and the SmartSlice I/O system on the DIN rail
The maximum number of SmartSlice I/O Units can be 64.
2. Wire the SmartSlice I/O Units and the GRT1-PRT Unit’s power supply.
3. Wire the PROFIBUS network, to connect the Unit to the PROFIBUS Master Unit.
4. Set the rotary switches on the front of the GRT1-PRT to the desired
PROFIBUS address.
5. Turn ON the power to the Unit and the I/O.
6. Turn ON (from OFF to ON) DIP switch 1 on the front of the PROFIBUS
Communication Unit. When switch 1 is turned ON, the existing SmartSlice
I/O Unit configuration (connection order and I/O size) is registered in the
PROFIBUS Communication Unit as a registered table. After the table is
registered, leave pin 1 ON to enable the table.
Note The next time the power is turned ON, the actual SmartSlice I/O Unit configu-
ration at power on is automatically compared to the registered table. Any
SmartSlice I/O Units that do not match the registered table (connection order
or I/O size) will not participate in I/O communication. I/O communication will
start with the other SmartSlice I/O Units.
Section 1-4
Configuration ProcedureUse the following procedure to configure the PROFIBUS Master Unit for com-
munication with the PROFIBUS Communication Unit, using the Cx-Profibus
FDT Container program and the GRT1-PRT DTM:
1,2,3...1. In Cx-Profibus, create a network and define the parameters and I/O con-
figurations for the PROFIBUS Master Unit settings and the allocated slave
devices. Determine the baud rate and the bus parameter setup. Make sure
that the “Go to OPERATE mode “option is selected, to force the Unit to OPERATE mode upon a PLC mode change to RUN / MONITOR mode.
2. Download the network configuration to the PROFIBUS Master Unit. After
downloading the configuration, Cx-Profibus will restart the PROFIBUS DP
Master Unit.
3. After restarting the PROFIBUS DP Master Unit it will automatically start
communication.
