6 EC Directives

DeviceNet products conform to EMS and low-voltage level directives as follows:

EMC Directives

OMRON devices that comply with EC Directives also conform to the related EMC standards, so that they can more easily be built in to other devices or the overall machine. The actual products have been checked for conformity to EMC standards. Whether they conform to the standards in the system used by the customer, however, must be checked by the customer.

EMC-related performance of the OMRON devices that comply with EC Directives will vary depending on the configuration, wiring, and other conditions of

Page 19

EC Directives 6

the equipment or control panel on which the OMRON devices are installed. The customer must, therefore, perform the final check to confirm that devices and the overall machine conform to EMC standards.

1,2,3... 1. The DeviceNet Communications Units are designed for installation inside

control panels. All DeviceNet Units must be installed within control panels.

2. Use reinforced insulation or double insulation for the DC power supplies used for the communications power supply, internal circuit power supply, and the I/O power supplies. The power supplies must also be able to provide stable output for 10 ms when a momentary power interruption occurs at the input.

3. The DeviceNet Communications Units conform to the EN61131-2 (Immunity Zone A), EN61000-6-2, and EN61000-6-4 standards, but the radiated emission characteristics (10-m regulations) may vary depending on the configuration of the control panel used, other devices connected to the control panel, wiring, and other conditions. You must therefore confirm that the overall machine or equipment complies with EC Directives.

The following examples shows how to reduce 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 Communications Unit.

2. Wire the control panel with as thick and short cables as possible and ground to 100

Ω min.

3. Keep DeviceNet communications cables as short as possible and ground to 100

Ω min.

Overview of Slice I/O Terminals Section 1-1

1-1 Overview of Slice I/O Terminals

Slice I/O Terminals are building-block style Slaves that can be expanded in small I/O increments, so a system can be configured to exactly match various customer applications. Slice I/O Units communicate with the Master by remote I/O communications through a DeviceNet Communications Unit.

DeviceNet Communications Units are equipped with a network power supply monitor function and error history for network diagnosis and Slice I/O Units are equipped with troubleshooting functions such as the I/O power supply function.

1-2 Features and System Configuration

1-2-1 Features

The DeviceNet Communications Unit for Slice I/O controls I/O between the DeviceNet Master and Slice I/O Units over the DeviceNet network.

Manage More Than One Slice I/O Units as One Slave

A single DeviceNet Communications Unit with up to 64 connected Slice I/O Units can be managed as a Slave (a single module) from the DeviceNet Master.

Remote I/O Communications

Remote I/O communications can be used to share I/O data between the Master and more than one Slice I/O Units through the DeviceNet Communications Unit.

In addition to actual I/O data, various status information can be allocated in the Master by making custom settings with the Configurator.

Simplified Startup The DeviceNet Communications Unit can be set up easily, just by wiring the

Unit, setting the DeviceNet node address on the Unit’s rotary switches, and making simple DIP switch settings.

Features and System Configuration Section 1-2

The Unit’s configuration is read automatically when the power is turned ON and I/O is also automatically allocated in the Slice I/O Units. It is not necessary to make any settings with a special Programming Device.

Simplified I/O Wiring All of the Slice I/O Units that connect to a DeviceNet Communications Unit are

equipped with screw-less clamp terminal blocks. Wiring to external I/O is accomplished just by inserting the wire into the terminals, eliminating the need to tighten terminal screws.

Table Registration The configuration of the Slice I/O Units (mounting order and I/O size) con-

nected to a DeviceNet Communications Unit can be registered in a table simply by switching a pin on the DeviceNet Communications 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 DeviceNet Master to indicate the error.

Communications Error History Monitor

The communications error history in the DeviceNet Communications Unit can record the four most recent communications errors in the DeviceNet network and the 64 most recent Slice I/O Terminal errors. The communications error information (communications error cause code and communications power supply voltage when error occurred) can be read with an explicit message command or from the Configurator.

Online Replacement of I/O Units

The Slice I/O Unit’s circuit section can be removed, so it isn’t necessary to turn OFF the power to replace a Unit. Communications can be maintained in the remaining (connected) Units.

Parameter Backup and Restore

Before replacing a Slice I/O Unit for maintenance, the parameter data set in the I/O Unit can be backed up in the DeviceNet Communications Unit by switching a pin on the Communications 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.

Automatic Baud Rate Recognition

The DeviceNet Communications Unit automatically detects the Master’s communications baud rate, so it isn’t necessary to set the baud rate. (If the Master’s baud rate has been changed, the DeviceNet Communications Unit must be turned OFF and then ON again to change its baud rate.)

Network Power Supply Volt a g e M onito r

The DeviceNet network’s power supply voltage values (present, maximum, and minimum values) are recorded in the DeviceNet Communications Unit. The Configurator can be used to read the recorded information. Furthermore, a warning voltage level can be set in the DeviceNet Communications Unit in order to notify the Master if the voltage drops below that preset warning level.

Unit Power ON Time Monitor

This function records the total time that the DeviceNet Communications Unit's internal circuit power has been ON. The Configurator or explicit messages can be used to read the information. Furthermore, a warning voltage level can be set in the DeviceNet Communications Unit in order to notify the Master if the set warning time is exceeded.

Unit Comment A user-set name can be assigned to each DeviceNet Communications Unit

and recorded in the Unit. When making settings or monitoring operation, the comments make it easy to identify individual Units based on their application or location.

Page 23

Specifications Section 1-3

Last Maintenance Date The dates on which maintenance is performed can be written to the

DeviceNet Communications Unit. The recorded date shows when maintenance is required next.

1-2-2 System Configuration

The DeviceNet Communications Unit connects to the Master by a network cable and it connects to the Slice I/O Units by directly coupling the Units with slide connectors.

The I/O Unit data in the DeviceNet Communications Unit is shared with the Master’s Input and Output Areas through the DeviceNet network. The I/O Units’ data is collected in the DeviceNet Communications Unit and exchanged with the Master asynchronously.

It is also possible to send explicit message commands addressed to the DeviceNet Communications Unit.

Note Always install an End Unit on the last I/O Unit in the last node.

Basic Operating Procedure Section 1-5

1-5 Basic Operating Procedure

The following procedure shows the basic steps required before using the Slice I/O Terminals.

Operating Procedure

1,2,3... 1. Connect the DeviceNet Communications Unit to the Master and connect

the desired Slice I/O Units.

2. Turn ON the power supply to the DeviceNet Communications Unit.

3. Turn ON (from OFF to ON) pin 1 of the DIP switch on the front of the DeviceNet Communications Unit. When pin 1 is turned ON, the existing Slice I/O Unit configuration (connection order and I/O size) is registered in the DeviceNet Communications Unit as a registered table. (After the table is registered, leave pin 1 ON to enable the table.)

4. The next time that the power is turned ON, the connected Slice I/O Unit configuration at that moment is automatically compared to the registered table and any Slice I/O Units that do not match the registered table (connection order or I/O size) will not participate in I/O communications. I/O communications will start with the other Slice I/O Units.

Note (1) When a communications error has occurred, the DeviceNet Communica-

tions Unit’s TS indicator will flash red and the affected Slice I/O Unit’s TS indicator will flash red. At the same time, the error code and error details code will be stored in the DeviceNet Communications Unit’s error history.

(2) For details on the operating procedures, refer to SECTION 4 Setup and

Operating Procedures.

2-1-2 Switch Settings

Note The DeviceNet Communications Unit detects the Master’s communications

baud rate automatically, so it is not necessary to set the baud rate.

Rotary Switches

Use the rotary switches to set the Unit’s DeviceNet node address between 00 and 63. (Do not set values 64 to 99.)

DIP Switch The DIP switch is used for the Unit settings and operations described below.

The DIP switch functions are only introduced here. For details, refer to 2-3 Unit Functions.

Create/Enable Registration Table (REGS, pin 1)

If pin 1 is turned from OFF to ON while the Unit’s power is ON, the existing Slice I/O Unit configuration (connection order and I/O size) is registered in the DeviceNet Communications Unit as a registered table.

If pin 1 is ON when the Unit’s power is turned ON, the actual Slice I/O Unit configuration at startup is automatically compared to the registered table. Any Slice I/O Units that do not match the registered table will not participate in Slice I/O communications.

I/O Allocation Mode (I/O, pin 2)

Always leave pin 2 set to OFF.

Automatic Restore (ADR, pin 3)

When pin 1 is ON (r

egistered table enabled) and pin 3 is ON, parameter data is

automatically restored to the Slice I/O Units that had parameter data backed up.

Node Address Settings and I/O Allocation Section 2-2

Backup Trigger (BACK, pin 4)

When pin 1 is ON (registered table enabled) and pin 4 is turned OFF to ON, the parameter data of all connected Slice I/O Units is backed up in the Communications Unit.

Note The factory setting is OFF for all DIP switch pins.

2-2 Node Address Settings and I/O Allocation

I/O words in the Master (the CPU Unit’s I/O memory) are allocated to the Slice I/O Terminal based on the DeviceNet Communications Unit’s node address setting. Once the DeviceNet node address is set, I/O will be allocated to the Slice I/O Terminal by default and remote I/O communications will start automatically.

Note When the power is turned ON, unit numbers are allocated automatically to the

Slice I/O Units in the Slice I/O Terminal.

2-2-1 Setting the Node Address

The Slice I/O Terminal’s node address as a DeviceNet Slave is set with the rotary switches on the front of the DeviceNet Communications Unit. The node address determines the starting word of the area allocated to the Slice I/O Terminal.

Switch setting Function

Node Address Settings and I/O Allocation Section 2-2

DeviceNet Node Address Setting

The left rotary switch sets the ten's digit, and the right rotary switch sets the one's digit. Any number in the allowed range (00 to 63) can be set as long as it is not set on another node (Master, Slave, or Configurator) in the network.

Note (1) Always turn OFF the DeviceNet communications power supply and De-

viceNet Communications Unit’s power supply before setting the node address.

(2) The factory default setting for the node address is 00.

(3) If the node address is duplicated on another node, a node address dupli-

cation error will occur and the Unit will not be able to join the network.

2-2-2 Unit Numbers of Slice I/O Units (Automatically Allocated)

The numbers used to identify the Slice I/O Units in a Slice I/O Terminal are called the Slice I/O Units’ unit numbers. These unit numbers are allocated automatically from left to right starting from #1, when the power is turned ON. It is not necessary for the user to set these numbers.

Note The unit numbers allocated automatically to the Slice I/O Units are unrelated

to the DeviceNet node address set with the rotary switches.

2-2-3 I/O Allocation to the Slice I/O Terminal’s Master Unit

The Slice I/O Terminal’s I/O data is allocated in the I/O memory of the CPU Unit in which the Master Unit is mounted and the I/O memory location is determined by the DeviceNet Communications Unit’s DeviceNet node address.

The user can set the Slice I/O Terminal’s allocated data freely with a DeviceNet Configurator.

Slice I/O Terminals (Slaves)

Data is allocated to I/O memory in the order that the Units are connected, from lowest to highest. I/O Units with bit allocation are allocated data from the rightmost to leftmost bit, in 2-bit units. I/O Units with word allocations are allocated data from the lower to higher word address.

Order of allocation

(1) Communications Unit status

(2) Each Slice I/O Unit's I/O data.

(3) Slice I/O Unit network

participation status.

Page 36

Node Address Settings and I/O Allocation Section 2-2

I/O Allocation Example

I/O data is allocated to the I/O Units in the order that they are connected to the Communications Unit, regardless of the I/O Units’ models. Unless special allocation data settings are selected with the Configurator, data is allocated from the first word starting with the Communications Unit’s status flags and then the leftmost I/O Unit’s data.

Data in the Master’s input and output areas is allocated to the Slice I/O Units based on their unit numbers.

Note I/O Units with bit allocation (such as the GRT1-ID4/OD4) are allocated data in

2-bit units. I/O Units with word allocation (such as the GRT1-AD2) are allocated data in 1-word units. The following example shows the allocation to an Output Unit.

Allocated Data Patterns

The following kinds of data can be allocated in the Master. The Configurator can be used to freely select the kinds/combination of data allocated. If the Configurator isn’t used to select the data pattern, the default setting is used, which is I/O data + Communications Unit status flags (pattern number 1 in the following table).

Allocated Data Size

Note When allocating data, be sure that it does not exceed the maximum that can

be allocated (64 words).

Status Flags The status flags can be allocated in the Master independently or together with

the I/O data. There are two kinds of status flags, the Communications Unit’s status flags and I/O Units’ communications participating/withdrawn flags, and these status flags must be allocated in separate areas.

Communications Unit’s Status Flags

These flags can be used to monitor the status of the connection with the Master and the status of Slice I/O Units connected to the Communications Unit. The status flags take up 2 words and the information is transferred to the Master.

With the default data pattern (pattern 1), these status flags are allocated in the Master together with the I/O data. The status flags can also be read with the Configurator or an explicit message command.

Data type Data size

I/O data (input and output) When only the actual I/O data is allocated:

64 input words max. or 64 output words max. The GRT1-ID4(-1) and GRT1-OD4(-1) use 4 bits

per Unit. The GRT1-ROS2 uses 2 bits.

2-3-1 Table Registration Function

Function Overview This function registers the configuration of the Slice I/O Units connected to the

DeviceNet Communications Unit in a table within the Unit, so that the registered I/O table can be automatically compared with the actual configuration each time that the power is turned ON. The configuration is registered simply by turning ON (OFF to ON) pin 1 of the DeviceNet Communications Unit’s DIP switch while the Slice I/O Terminal’s power supply is ON. The registered table is enabled if pin 1 is ON when the power is turned ON. If pin 1 is OFF when the power is turned ON, the registered table is disabled and the Communications Unit will automatically detect the actual I/O configuration and start communications.

Creating a New Registration Table

The Slice I/O Terminal’s present I/O configuration can be read and registered in the table just by turning DIP switch pin 1 (REGS) from OFF to ON while the DeviceNet Communications Unit’s power supply is ON. If the registration table is being refreshed, the old registration table will be erased.

Note The configuration information shows the order that the Slice I/O

Units are connected and the I/O size (input or output, number of bits) of each Slice I/O Unit. The I/O Unit model numbers are not recorded.

I/O communications error history

A history of communications errors with connected I/O Units can be collected in the Communications Unit.

Unit Functions Section 2-3

Comparison with the Registered Table

When DIP switch pin 1 (REGS) is ON and an I/O configuration table has been registered in the Communications Unit, the actual I/O configuration is automatically compared to the registered table when the power is turned ON. A verification error will occur if a registered I/O Unit cannot join I/O communications or an unregistered I/O Unit is detected.

If there are verification errors, the affected Slice I/O Units will not join in I/O communications. I/O communications will start with the other Slice I/O Units.

■ Example of Comparison between Figure 1 and Figure 2

Note (1) Register the I/O configuration table when all of the Slice I/O Units are

communicating, i.e., when the DeviceNet Communications Unit’s TS indicator is lit green.

(2) A mismatch (verification error) with the registered table is indicated at the

DeviceNet Communications Unit’s TS indicator (flashing red) and can be read from the Configurator. The error details can be read from the Configurator or the error history can be read with an explicit message command.

2-3-2 Backup Function

Function Overview The backup function records the parameter data of all Slice I/O Units con-

nected to the DeviceNet Communications Unit. The parameter data recorded in the Communications Unit can be restored to the Slice I/O Units later with the automatic restore function when a Slice I/O Unit has been replaced.

Backup Procedure

1,2,3... 1. Verify that the power is ON, DIP switch pin 1 (REGS) is ON, and all of the

Slice I/O Units are participating in I/O communications.

2. Turn DIP switch pin 4 (BACK) ON, then OFF, and then ON again within 3 s to start the back up.

3. While the data is being backed up, the DeviceNet Communications Unit’s TS indicator will flash green every 0.5 s. The TS indicator will stop flashing (not lit) when the backup is completed. If the restore operation fails, the TS indicator will be lit red for 2 s.

Note (1) Do not turn OFF the power supply or reset the Configurator while data is

being backed up. The data will not be backed up properly if the power is turned OFF.

(2) The backup data will be erased along with the registered I/O configuration

table if the power supply is turned ON or the Slave is reset while DIP switch pin 1 (REGS) is turned OFF.

(3) We recommend backing up the parameter data in case a Unit fails in the

future.

2-3-3 Automatic Restore Function

Function Overview When a Slice I/O Unit has been replaced, this function will automatically

download (restore) Slice I/O Unit parameter data that was previously backed up in the DeviceNet Communications Unit. The following conditions are required to execute the automatic restore function:

• DIP switch pin 1 (REGS) was ON when the power was turned ON, so the registered table is enabled.

• DIP switch pin 3 (ADR) was ON when the power was turned ON, so the automatic restore function is enabled.

• Parameter data has been backed up in the DeviceNet Communications Unit.

Preparation for Data Restoration

1,2,3... 1. Create backup data in the Communications Unit with the backup function.

For details, see 2-3-2 Backup Function.

2. Turn ON DIP switch pin 3 (ADR).

Unit Replacement Procedure

1,2,3... 1. Turn OFF the Slice I/O Terminal’s power supply and the I/O power supply.

2. Release the hook on the front of the I/O Unit that you want to replace and remove the terminal block. The wiring can remain connected.

3. Remove the main block of the Slice I/O Unit and replace it with a new I/O Unit.

4. Mount the terminal block that was removed in step 2 and latch the hook that was released.

5. When the power is turned ON again, the Communications Unit will automatically detect the Unit that was replaced and download the backup data. The I/O Unit’s TS indicator will indicate the results of the restore operation.

• If the download was successful, the Unit will be reset automatically and join I/O communications normally. The I/O Unit’s TS indicator will be lit green.

• If the download failed, the I/O Unit’s TS indicator will be flash red.

• If the connected Unit is the wrong model, the I/O Unit’s TS indicator will be lit red.

Note (1) Do not turn OFF the power supply or reset the Configurator while data is

being restored. The data will not be restored up properly if the power is turned OFF.

(2) When an I/O Unit has been replaced with the power ON and the new I/O

Unit joins I/O communications, the new Unit will be compared to the previous one and the parameter data restore operation will start automatically. While data is being restored, the DeviceNet Communications Unit’s TS indicator will flash green every 0.5 s. The TS indicator will stop flashing (not lit) when the restore operation is completed. If the restore operation fails, the Automatic Restore Monitor Flag (bit 13 of the Communications Unit status flags) will be turned ON and the Communications Unit’s TS indicator will be lit red for 2 s.

2-3-4 Online Replacement Function

Function Overview When one of the Slice I/O Units connected to the DeviceNet Communications

Unit must be replaced, the Unit can be replaced without turning OFF the power. The Units can be replaced online because the Slice I/O Units are made up of 3 blocks: the base block, main block, and terminal block. When replacing a Slice I/O Unit, leave just the base block connected and replace the main block. I/O communications will continue with the other I/O Units even while the problem Unit is being removed and replaced.

Replacement Procedure

1,2,3... 1. Turn OFF the I/O power supply of the I/O Unit being replaced.

2. Release the hook on the front of the I/O Unit that you want to replace and remove the terminal block. The wiring can remain connected.

3. Remove the main block of the Slice I/O Unit and replace it with a new I/O Unit.

4. Mount the terminal block that was removed in step 2 and latch the hook that was released.

5. Turn ON the I/O power supply.

Note (1) When a Unit withdraws from I/O communications during replacement, the

corresponding Slice I/O Unit Communications Withdrawn Flag will go ON and the DeviceNet Communications Unit’s TS indicator will flash red.

(2) Before using the automatic restore function, the preparation for automatic

restoration (creating backup data and turning ON DIP switch pin 3) must be completed. See 2-3-3 Automatic Restore Function for details.

(3) Always turn OFF the I/O Unit’s I/O power supply before replacement in

order to prevent false output signals, false input signals, and electrical shocks. In addition, if external power is supplied to the terminal block for a Unit such as a Relay Output Unit, turn OFF that power supply before replacing the Unit.

(4) Only replace one I/O Unit at a time.

(5) Always replace the I/O Unit with the same model of I/O Unit. If a Unit is

replaced with a different model, there may be unexpected outputs and the restore operation may not be completed properly.

(6) If the base block is faulty or damaged, turn OFF the power supply and re-

place the entire Unit. Even in this case, the I/O Unit’s parameter data will be restored automatically if the automatic restore function is enabled when the power is turned ON.

To keep the system online, leave the communications block connected.

Unit being replaced

If pin 1 and pin 3 are ON, data is automatically restored to the replaced Unit.

2-3-5 Automatic Baud Rate Recognition

The DeviceNet Communications Unit’s baud rate is automatically adjusted to match the Master's baud rate. The Communications baud rate is set and saved after the power is turned ON and communications with the Master are established. The baud rate setting is retained until the next time that the power is turned ON.

Note If the Master’s baud rate has been changed, the DeviceNet Communications

Unit must be turned OFF and then ON again to change its baud rate.

2-3-6 Network Power Supply Voltage Monitor

Function Overview The present, bottom, and peak values of the Network power voltage can be

recorded in the DeviceNet Communications Unit. A monitor voltage level can be set with the Configurator and recorded in the DeviceNet Communications Unit. The Network Power Voltage Error Flag in the Status Area will be turned ON when the voltage drops below the set monitor value. The current, minimum, and maximum values of the Network power voltage, and the Network Power Voltage Error Flag can be read from the Configurator.

Note 1. The communications power voltage of the actual DeviceNet is 11 V mini-

mum, so if the communications power voltage drops below 11 V, the operation for reading the measurement values using the Configurator may not function properly.

2. The maximum and minimum Network power voltages are cleared when the Network power is turned OFF.

Setting Using the DeviceNet Configurator

The method used to set values from the DeviceNet Configurator (Ver. 2.43 or later) is described here.

2. Peel back the mesh shield carefully to expose the signal lines, power lines, and the shielding wire. The shielding wire will be loose on the outside of the other lines, but it is harder than the mesh shield and should be easily identified.

3. Remove the exposed mesh shield, remove the aluminum tape from the signal and power lines, and strip the covering from the signal and power lines to the proper length for the crimp terminal connectors. Twist together the wires of each of the signal and power lines.

4. Attach the crimp terminals to the lines and then cover any exposed areas of the cable and lines with electrician's tape or heat-shrinking tubes. Orient the connector properly, loosen the line set screws, and then insert the lines in order: Red, white, shield, blue, and then black. The DeviceNet Communications Unit is equipped with screwless clamping terminals. It is not necessary to secure the lines with screws as with previous connectors. Push up the orange tab and then insert each line into the back of each hole. Release the orange lever after inserting the lines, and gently pull each line to check that it is securely connected to the connector.

There are colored stickers provided on the Master Unit and Slaves that match the colors of the lines to be inserted. Check that the colors of the lines and stickers match when wiring the connectors.

The colors used are as follows:

Starting Communications Section 4-4

For details on scan lists and remote I/O communications, refer to the DeviceNet master operation manual.

Note When a scan list is disabled, communications are possible with all Slaves on

the DeviceNet Network with fixed allocations. Without scan lists, however, the Master Unit cannot check if there is an error in a Slave. For normal operations, always enable the scan lists.

Precautions

User I/O Allocations The user can allocate any words for Slave I/O for the DeviceNet I/O Areas (IN

Area, OUT Area) in the Master Unit.

When user allocations are used, scan lists must be created with a DeviceNet Configurator and registered in the Master Unit. The scan list is enabled as soon as it is registered, and remote I/O communications start according to the scan list.

For details, refer to the DeviceNet Operation Manual (W267) and the DeviceNet Configurator Operation Manual (W328).

Fixed I/O Allocations Slave I/O is allocated in the DeviceNet I/O area (IN Area, OUT Area) in the

Master Unit in the same order as the Slave node addresses.

When fixed allocations are used, the scan lists are automatically created and registered using the Master Unit's software switches. The scan list is enabled as soon as it is registered, and remote I/O communications start according to the scan list. When scan list is enabled, the mode is called the scan listenabled mode.

The registered scan lists can be cleared using the software switches. When scan lists are cleared (disabled), the mode is called the scan list-disabled mode.

Creating and Registering Fixed Allocation Scan Lists

The method of creating and registering scan lists for fixed allocation using Programming Console and a CS/CJ-series Master Unit is explained here. For details on operating Programming Devices, refer to the operation manual for the Programming Device being used with the PLC. For details on creating scan lists, refer to the DeviceNet master operation manual.

Creating and Registering Scan Lists

Use the following procedure to create, register, and enable the scan lists.

In the following example, n = 1500 + (25

× unit number).

Clearing and Creating Scan Lists

1,2,3... 1. Switch the PLC’s operating mode to PROGRAM mode.

2. Enable the Master Unit functions. Set the Master Unit function enable switch (bit 06 of word n) from OFF to ON.

3. Clear the scan lists. Set the scan list clear switch (bit 01 of word n) from OFF to ON.

4. Select the fixed allocation areas 1 to 3. Set the Master Unit's setting switch for fixed allocation areas 1 to 3 (bit 00 of word n) from OFF to ON.

5. Enable the scan lists. Set the scan list enable switch (bit 00 of word n) from OFF to ON.

6. Switch the operating mode switch to RUN or MONITOR mode.

Checking the Normal Slave Table

Monitor the normal Slave table and check that the corresponding bits are ON. In the normal Slave table, the corresponding bits will turn ON for the nodes that are communicating normally.

Page 79

Checking Operation Section 4-5

4-5 Checking Operation

Use the procedures provided here to check that I/O communications are operating normally.

4-5-1 Indicator Status

I/O communications are operating normally if the MS and NS indicators for all nodes are lit green, and the 7-segment indicator on the front panel of the Master Unit is displaying the node address of the Master Unit as shown in the following diagram (when the Master Unit's node address is 00), and the scan list is enabled.

4-5-2 Checking I/O Communications

Connect the Programming Device for the PLC to the Master Unit, write the Master Unit's OUT Area and read the IN Area, and check that the data are the same in the Slaves.

Refer to the DeviceNet master operation manual for details on OUT Area and IN Area addresses and how to allocate Slave I/O.

Operating the Slice I/O Terminal’s I/O Devices

Create the following ladder program in the PLC of the Master Unit, and check that the indicator on the GRT1-OD4 Output Unit goes ON when the switch on the GRT1-ID4 Input Unit is ON.

Note In the system configuration examples in this section, the Slice I/O Terminals I/

O is allocated in the Master Unit's CIO Area as shown in the following diagram (fixed allocation area 1 of the Master Unit).

5-1 Remote I/O Communications Characteristics

This section describes the characteristics of DeviceNet remote I/O communications with a Slice I/O Terminal connected to an OMRON Master. Use this section for reference when planning operations that require precise I/O timing.

The equations provided here are valid under the following conditions:

• The Master Unit is operating with the scan list enabled.

• All of the required Slaves are participating in communications.

• No errors are being indicated at the Master Unit.

• Messages are not being produced in the Network (from another company's configurator, for example).

Note (1) The values provided by these equations may not be accurate if another

company's Master or Slave is being used in the network.

(2) This manual describes the communications with the Slice I/O Terminal

only. For details on the Master Unit or overall DeviceNet network, refer to the DeviceNet Operation Manual (W267). For details on Slaves other than the Slice I/O Terminal, refer to the DeviceNet DRT2 Series Slaves Operation Manual (W404).

I/O Response Time The I/O response time is the time it takes from the reception of an input signal

at an Input Slave (Input Unit in the Slice I/O Terminal) to the output of the corresponding output signal at an Output Slave (Output Unit in the Slice I/O Terminal) after being processed by the PLC’s ladder program.

DeviceNet Communications Cycle Time (TRM)

The DeviceNet communications cycle time is the time from the completion of a Slave's remote I/O communications processing until remote I/O communications with the same Slave are processed again. The communications cycle time is used to calculate the maximum I/O response time.

The following equations show the communications cycle time (T

) when

there is only one Master in the Network.

Even if the equation result is less than 2 ms, the minimum communications cycle time (TRM) is 2 ms.

The communications time per Slave is the time required for communications to be performed with a single Slave.

The following equations show the communications time per Slave (T

) for

each kind of Slave Unit. For a Slice I/O Terminal, the communications time per Slave is the communications time per Slave with the DeviceNet Communications Unit. In the Slice I/O Terminal, 2 input words (4 bytes) are used for the I/ O Unit interface’s status flags, so those 4 bytes must be included in the total when calculating the number of input bytes.

Refresh Time (TRF) The refresh time is the time required to exchange I/O data between the PLC's

CPU Unit and the DeviceNet Master Unit. The PLC's cycle time is increased when a Master Unit is mounted, as shown below.

Note Refer to the PLC's operation manual for more details on the refresh time and

the PLC's cycle time.

Master Units for CS, CJ, C200HX/HG/HE (-Z), and C200HS PLCs

When a Master Unit is mounted to the PLC, the PLC's cycle time (I/O refreshing) is increased by the amount shown in the following table.

Note The number of words refreshed is the total number of words in the I/O Area

that are allocated to the Slaves, including any unused words between those words actually used by the Slaves. For example, if there are only two Input Slaves with node addresses 1 and 5, the 5 input words for nodes 1 through 5 would be refreshed even though the input words for nodes 2, 3, and 4 are unused. If message communications are being performed, just add the number of words used in message communications to the above number of words for whenever messages are being processed.

Slice Bus Communications Cycle Time (TSL)

The Slice bus communications cycle time is the delay in the Slice I/O Terminal from the end of communications with one I/O Unit until the start of communications with the next Unit.

SL-OUT

= 0.18 + total number of output data bytes × 0.002 [ms]

5-2 Message Communications Characteristics

5-2-1 Message Communications Time

The message communications time is the time required for a message sent to the Slice I/O Terminal to travel over the Network and arrive at the Slice I/O Terminal. (The message may be data from a SEND(090)/RECV(098) instruction or a FINS command from a CMND(490)/IOWR(223) instruction.)

Communications Time to the DeviceNet Communications Unit

Use the following equation to calculate the message communications time to the DeviceNet Communications Unit.

Message communications time = DeviceNet communications cycle time (T

) × {(Number of message bytes + 15) ÷ 6 + 1}

The number of message bytes is the number of bytes of data after the FINS command’s command code. The equation for the DeviceNet communications cycle time (T

) is in 5-1 Remote I/O Communications Characteristics.

Communications Time to the Slice I/O Unit

If a Slice I/O Unit is the final message destination, the message communications time over the Slice bus must be added to calculate the total message communications time. Use the following equation to calculate the message communications time over the Slice bus.

Message communications time = T

× Number of frames

Number of frames = Number of message bytes ÷ 30 (round up fractions)

Note (1) If the CPU Unit attempts to send another message or receives a message

from another node before the message communications time has finished, the response message being sent or the message being received from another node may be destroyed. Always perform message communications at intervals longer than the message communications time and use message instructions (SEND(090), RECV(098), CMND(490), and IOWR(223)). Never send messages to any one node at intervals less than the message communications time. If send or receive messages are destroyed, the error record will be placed in the error history of the Master Unit. If an error occurs, read the error history using the FINS command or monitor the error history from the Configurator.

(2) The above equations provide find the approximate message communica-

tions time, but not the maximum time. The message communications time will depend on the frequency of the message communications, the load on the remote node, the communications cycle time, and other factors. For any one Master Unit, the message communications time may be greatly increased due to heavy loads.

• Check whether all of the Slaves' settings are correct.

• Check whether the communications cables are connected properly.

• Check whether the power supply is set correctly and the power supply cables are connected properly.

• Check all the nodes for broken wires in the communications and power supply cables attached to the connectors.

• Check whether communications power is correctly supplied to the network.

• If there is nearby equipment that generates electrical noise, take steps to shield the Master, Slaves, and communications cables from the noise.

• If an error has occurred in a network with an OMRON Master Unit, refer to the DeviceNet master operation manual. If an error has occurred in a network with a another company's Master Unit, refer to the relevant operation manual.

• If a particular Slave's NS indicator is always red, replace that Slave.

The NS indicator remains OFF.

• Check whether the baud rates match on the Master and all Slaves. If there are any Slaves with different baud rates, set them to the same baud rate.

• Check that the Slave's connector is connected correctly.

• Check that the 24 VDC communications power supply is being supplied properly.

• Check that the Master is operating properly. When using an OMRON Master Unit, refer to the DeviceNet master operation manual. If another company's Master is being used, refer to the relevant operation manual.

• Check whether the communications cables are connected properly.

• Check whether the power supply is set correctly and the power supply cables are connected properly.

• Check for broken wires in the communications and power supply cables attached to the connectors.

The NS indicator continuously flashes green.

• Check that the Master is operating properly. When using an OMRON master, refer to the DeviceNet master operation manual. If another company's Master is being used, refer to the relevant operation manual.

• Check whether the Slave is registered in the Master's scan list. If an OMRON Master Unit is being used, a new Slave cannot be added to the network if the Master is operating with the scan list enabled. First clear the scan list, check that all the Slaves have joined the network, and then create the scan list. If another company's Master is being used, refer to the relevant operation manual for details on registering a new Slave in its scan list.

When using an OMRON Master Unit, check the following points and perform the error processing steps according to the indicator status.

• Register the scan list again. First clear the scan list, check that all the Slaves have joined the network, and then create the scan list.

• Check that the Slave's allocated I/O Area does not overlap with that of another Slave. If there is an overlap, change the Slave's node address to eliminate the overlap.

• Check that the allocated I/O Area does not exceed the allowable range shown below. If the I/O Area exceeds this range, change the Slave's node address to correct the problem.

When using another company's Master Unit, check that the I/O size registered in the Master's scan list matches the actual I/O size of the Slave.

The I/O size is recorded in the following attributes of the Connection Object: Interface 2 (Polled I/O Connection)

Produced Connection Size (input size) Consumed Connection Size (output size)

OR: Interface 3 (Bit-strobed I/O Connection)

Appendix A

DeviceNet Explicit Messages

DeviceNet explicit messages sent from the Master Unit to a GRT1 Series DeviceNet Communications Unit can be used to read or write any parameter of a specified GRT1 Series DeviceNet Communications Unit.

The DeviceNet Communications Units process the commands sent from the Master and then return responses.

Basic Format of Explicit Messages

The basic format of each command and response is shown below.

Command Block

Destination Node Address

The node address of the Unit that is sending the explicit messages (commands) is specified as a single-byte hexadecimal.

Service Code, Class ID, Instance ID, Attribute ID

The parameters used for specifying the command, processing object, and processing content.

Note The number of bytes designated for Class ID, Instance ID, and Attribute ID depend on the Master Unit.

When sent from an OMRON DeviceNet Master, the Class ID and Instance ID are 2 bytes (4 digits), and Attribute ID is 1 byte (2 digits).

Data

Data is not required when the read command is used.

Response Block

Normal Response Block

Error Response Block

Number of Bytes Received

The number of bytes received from the source node address is returned in hexadecimal. When an error response is returned for an explicit message, the number of bytes is always 0004 Hex.

Source Node Address

The node address of the node from which the command was sent is returned in hexadecimal.

Using Explicit Messages

The following example shows how to use explicit messages with a DeviceNet Communications Unit connected to a CS1W-DRM21 DeviceNet Master Unit.

Example: Sending a “Unit Maintenance Present Value Read” command to the DeviceNet Communications Unit.

Example: DeviceNet Master Unit’s node address: 05

Unit number: 0

Unit address: FE Hex (or 10 Hex)

DeviceNet Communication Unit’s node address: 11

Operation

Reads the Unit maintenance PV of the Slice I/O Terminal’s DeviceNet Communications Unit.

The data is read using the EXPLICIT MESSAGE SEND command (2801).

The command data is written in words starting from D01000 in the PLC and the response data is stored in words starting from D02000.

If the command does not end normally, the end code is stored in D00006 and the send command is re-executed.
