4. For this example, assign an embedded I/O point to this instruction. Select _IO_EM_DI_00, then in the Alias
column of _IO_EM_DI_00, type “Start PB” and click OK.
An alias is an optional parameter you can use to further define a local variable or a global variable
5. Your rung should look like the following.
6. Locate the Direct Coil instruction in the Toolbox, and drag-and-drop it onto the far right side of the rung. Assign it
to the embedded I/O point, _IO_EM_DO_00 with the alias “Motor”. Your rung should look like the following.

Chapter 3 Create and Save a Connected Components Workbench Project
7. Locate the Reverse Contact instruction in the Toolbox, and drag-and-drop it onto your rung , just to the right of the
Direct Contact instruction. Assign it to the embedded I/O point _IO_EM_DI_01 with the alias “Stop PB”.
Yo u r
rung should look like the following.
8. Locate the Branch instruction in the Toolbox, and drag-and-drop it to the drop point to the left of the Direct
Contact instruction on the far left side of the rung.
9. Your rung should look like the following.
10. Drag-and-drop a Direct Contact instruction onto the Branch instruction that you just added. Assign it to the
embedded I/O point _IO_EM_DO_00. Your rung should look like the following.
You have completed creating your motor seal-in circuit. When the Start Motor push button is toggled on (while the Stop
push button is not being pushed), you complete the rung circuit to the output so that the motor turns on. Once the motor
is running, you can release the Start Motor push button because the branch circuit around the push button seals it in. The
only way to interrupt the circuit is to push the Stop Motor push button. This breaks the circuit, which turns the motor off
and drops out the seal-in branch circuit. The Stop Motor push button can then be released and the motor remains off until
the Start Motor push button is pushed again.

Build and Download Project
In this chapter, you will learn how to download a project to your Micro800 controller. Before you can download a project
to the controller, you must build it to verify that there are no errors with the programming. The Micro850 controller is
used in the examples shown in this chapter.
Build and Download the Project to your Micro800 Controller
1. To build the project, click Device -> Build.
When a build is performed, the project is automatically saved before the build is performed.
The Output window and Status bar shows the current status of the build.
2. Connect the PC to your Micro800 controller.
For Micro850 controllers
Connect the USB cable from the PC to the USB port on your Micro850 controller. If this is the first time a specific
controller has been connected to this PC over USB, then you must wait for the controller to be detected and the
USB driver to be configured.
For Micro820 controllers
Connect the serial cable from the PC to the embedded serial port on your Micro820 controller, or connect the USB
cable from the PC to the USB port on the 2080-REMLCD. If this is the first time you are connecting your
Micro820 controller through serial, see
controller.

Build and Download Project Chapter 4
5. In the Download Confirmation dialog box, select Download.
When you download a project, you can choose if you either want to do a typical Download (project values are not
downloaded and variables are set to their initial value if it exists, or reset if no initial value exists) or Download with
Project Values. Downloading with project values may take longer than a typical download without project values.
Project values generally are populated by an upload with project values or can be entered manually in the variable
editor.
Initial value has priority, even if there is a project value and you have chosen to download with project values. If a
variable has been configured for Data Protection, then neither initial value or project value will change its value upon
download. The logical value in the controller will be preserved after a download.
6. Downloading in progress.
7. When the download is complete, you are prompted to put the controller back in Remote Run Mode. Click Yes.

Monitor Your Program in Connected Components Workbench Software
When connected to your Micro800 controller using Connected Components Workbench software:
• You can view your program visually in real-time and watch values change in the program.
• You should see the Ladder Diagram change color as the inputs and outputs change state.
Chapter
6
Individual Boolean instructions are red if the instruction result is TRUE/ON or blue if the result is FALSE/OFF.
The rung starts from the left power rail with the color red, indicating TRUE/ON, and flows to the right. Any
FALSE/OFF instruction, which is blue, interrupts the flow. There must be at least one complete red path to the
output for the output to be TRUE/ON.
1. Toggle the simulator board switch SW11 ON and OFF. Observe the _IO_EM_DI_00 Direct Contact instruction
turns red as you toggle on the switch, and then turn blue as you release it (if you toggle and release the switch too fast,
you may not see it update in the ladder diagram). Then observe the _IO_EM_DO_00 Direct Contact and Direct
Coil instructions turn red. You should also observe that the output indicator light 0 on the controller is now lit.
This is a typical motor seal-in circuit (and can also be applied in non-motor circuits as well). The Output Coil is
turned on using a Direct Contact and then the active state of the Output Coil seals in the circuit. The circuit is
unsealed when a Reverse Contact (normally closed) is opened.

How to Implement an Instruction Block
An Instruction Block is essentially a function block that has been predefined to perform a specific task or function.
Instruction Blocks include functions such as Timer-on-delay, Timer-off-delay, Math instructions, Data-type conversions,
Motion instructions, and so forth.
In this chapter, you will learn how to implement a Timer-On-Delay Instruction Block (TON). This instruction block is
inserted into your motor circuit and turns on the motor coil which automatically turns off after five seconds.
You will also learn how to implement an ANY_TO_TIME Data Conversion Instruction Block to convert an Integer to a
Time value.
Add a TON Instruction Block
1. Drag-and-drop a Branch instruction to the drop point on the left side of the output coil, wrapping around the coil
instruction. If you drop the branch on the right side of the rung, it will not wrap around the coil.
2. Locate the Block instruction in the Toolbox. Drag-and-drop the instruction into the branch you have just added.
39Rockwell Automation Publication 2080-QS004B-EN-E - October 2017 39

Chapter 8 How to Implement an Instruction Block
The Instruction Block Selector dialog box appears. This is where you can select the type of instruction block you
want to use. As shown, there are many different types of instruction blocks that you can choose from.
3. You can filter the instruction blocks by Name, Category, or Type. Since we want to use a Timer-On-Delay
instruction block, type “TON” in the Search filter box. This will filter the choices to only Instruction Blocks that
start with TON.

Function
A User-Defined Function (UDF) acts like a subroutine in RSLogix 500 and Studio 5000 Logix Designer. It requires less
memory but it supports only one instance and allows only one output parameter. A User-Defined Function Block (UDFB)
acts like an add-on instruction in Studio 5000 Logix Designer. It supports multiple instances and allows multiple output
parameters, but it takes up more memory.
In this chapter, you will be creating a UDF to convert Raw data from channel 0 of the 2080-IF2 Analog Input module to
actual engineering units. The raw value will range from 0.0...65535.0 and the engineering units will range from 0...100 °C.
UDF is suitable for this type of simple calculation since each call to the UDF is independent and only needs one set of local
variables.
