Maximum Hardware Configuration
Introduction
The M221 Logic Controller is a control system that offers an all-in-one solution with optimized
configurations and an expandable architecture.
Local and Remote Configuration Principle
The following figure defines the local and remote configurations:
(1) Local configuration
(2) Remote configuration
M221 Logic Controller Local Configuration Architecture
Optimized local configuration and flexibility are provided by the association of:
NOTE: TM3 transmitter and receiver modules are not included in a count of the maximum number of
expansion modules.
NOTE: The configuration with its TM3 and TM2 expansion modules is validated by EcoStruxure
Machine Expert - Basic software in the Configuration window taking into account the total power
consumption of the installed modules.
NOTE: In some environments, the maximum configuration populated by high consumption
modules, coupled with the maximum distance allowable between the TM3 transmitter and receiver
modules, may present bus communication issues although the EcoStruxure Machine Expert Basic software allows for the configuration. In such a case you will need to analyze the
consumption of the modules chosen for your configuration, as well as the minimum cable distance
required by your application, and possibly seek to optimize your choices.

NOTE: Expansion modules consume current from the 5 Vdc and 24 Vdc supplied to the I/O Bus.
Therefore, the current delivered by the logic controller to the I/O Bus defines the maximum number
of expansion modules that can be connected to the I/O Bus (validated by EcoStruxure Machine
Expert - Basic software in the Configuration window).

TM2 Expansion Modules
Overview
You can expand the number of I/Os of your M221 Logic Controller by adding TM2 I/O expansion
modules.
The following types of electronic modules are supported:
TM2 digital I/O expansion modules
TM2 analog I/O expansion modules
For more information, refer to the following documents:
TM2 Digital I/O Expansion Modules Hardware Guide
TM2 Analog I/O Expansion Modules Hardware Guide
NOTE: TM2 modules can only be used in the local configuration, and only if there is no TM3
transmitter and receiver modules present in the configuration.
NOTE: It is prohibited to mount a TM2 module before any TM3 module. The TM2 modules must
be mounted and configured at the end of the local configuration.

Real Time Clock (RTC)
Overview
The M221 Logic Controller includes an RTC to provide system date and time information, and to
support related functions requiring a real-time clock. To continue keeping time when power is off,
a non-rechargeable battery is required (see reference below). A battery LED on the front panel of
the controller indicates if the battery is depleted or absent.
This table shows how RTC drift is managed:
RTC CharacteristicsDescription
RTC drift Less than 30 seconds per month at 25 °C (77 °F)
Battery
The controller has one backup battery.
In the event of a power interruption, the backup battery maintains user data and the RTC for the
controller.
This table shows the characteristics of the battery:

Input Management
Overview
The M221 Logic Controller features digital inputs, including 4 fast inputs.
The following functions are configurable:
Filters (depends on the function associated with the input).
I0...I15 inputs can be used for the Run/Stop function.
Four fast inputs can be either latched or used for events (rising edge, falling edge, or both) and
thus be linked to an external task.
NOTE: All inputs can be used as regular inputs.
Integrator Filter Principle
The filter is designed to reduce the bouncing effect at the inputs. Setting a filter value helps the
controller to ignore sudden changes of input levels caused by induction of electromagnetic
interference.
The following timing diagram illustrates the filter effects:

Bounce Filter Availability
The bounce filter can be used on a fast input when:

EIO0000003313 02/202061
Page 62
M221 Features
Latching
Latching is a function that can be assigned to the M221 Logic Controller fast inputs. This function
is used to memorize (or latch) any pulse with a duration that is less than the M221 Logic Controller
scan time. When a pulse is shorter than one scan, the controller latches the pulse, which is then
updated in the next scan. This latching mechanism only recognizes rising edges. Falling edges
cannot be latched. Assigning inputs to be latched is done in the Configuration tab in EcoStruxure
Machine Expert - Basic.
The following timing diagram illustrates the latching effects:
Event
An input configured for Event can be associated with an External Task.
Run/Stop
62
The Run/Stop function is used to start or stop an application program using an input. In addition to
the embedded Run/Stop switch, you can configure one (and only one) input as an additional
Run/Stop command.
For more information, refer to the Run/Stop
(see page 69)
.
WARNING
UNINTENDED MACHINE OR PROCESS START-UP
Verify the state of security of your machine or process environment before applying power to
the Run/Stop input.
Use the Run/Stop input to help prevent the unintentional start-up from a remote location.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage.

Page 67
Fallback Modes (Behavior for Outputs in Stop)
When the controller enters the STOPPED or one of the exception states for any reason, the local
(embedded and expansion) outputs are set to Default Value defined in the application.
In case of PTO outputs, the fallback values are forced to 0 logic (0 Vdc) and these values cannot
be modified.
Short-circuit or Over-current on Source Transistor Outputs
Outputs are clustered in packs of 4 outputs maximum (less when the total number of outputs of the
controller is not a multiple of 4):
Q0...Q3
Q4...Q7
Q8...Q11
Q12...Q15
When a short-circuit or overload is detected and the system bit %S49 is set to 1, the cluster of 4
outputs is set to 0. An automatic rearming is done periodically (about 1 s). Only the short-circuit
between an output set to 1 and 0 V is detected. The short-circuit between an output set to 0 and
24 V is not detected.
NOTE: By default, %S49 is set to 0.
The following table describes the actions taken on short-circuits or overload of transistor outputs
from Q0 to Q3:
If...then...
If you have short-circuit at 0 V on
transistor outputs
Transistor outputs automatically go into over-current protection or
thermal protection mode.
For more information, refer to transistor output wiring diagrams.
M221 Features
In the case of a short-circuit or current overload, the common group of outputs automatically enters
into thermal protection mode (all outputs in the group are set to 0), and are then periodically
rearmed (each second) to test the connection state. However, you must be aware of the effect of
this rearming on the machine or process being controlled.
WARNING
UNINTENDED MACHINE START-UP
Inhibit the automatic rearming of outputs if this feature is an undesirable behavior for your
machine or process.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage.
NOTE: The automatic rearming feature can be disabled with the system bit %S49. Refer to the
Programming Guide of your controller for more information.

The following table describes the actions taken on overloads or short-circuits on sink transistor
outputs:
If...then ...
If you have short-circuit or overload at 0 V, or 24 V on sink

The following table describes the actions taken on overloads or short-circuits on relay outputs:
If...then...
If you have short-circuit or overload at 0 V or
24 V on relay outputs
Relay outputs are electromechanical switches capable of carrying significant levels of current and
voltage. All electromechanical devices have a limited operational life and must be installed so as
to minimize the potential for unintended consequences.
INOPERABLE OUTPUTS
Use appropriate, external safety interlocks on outputs where personnel and/or equipment
hazards exist.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage.

Environmental Characteristics
Enclosure Requirements
M221 Logic Controller system components are designed as Zone B, Class A industrial equipment
according to IEC/CISPR Publication 11. If they are used in environments other than those
described in the standard, or in environments that do not meet the specifications in this manual,
the ability to meet electromagnetic compatibility requirements in the presence of conducted and/or
radiated interference may be reduced.
All M221 Logic Controller system components meet European Community (CE) requirements for
open equipment as defined by IEC/EN 61131-2. You must install them in an enclosure designed
for the specific environmental conditions and to minimize the possibility of unintended contact with
hazardous voltages. Use metal enclosures to improve the electromagnetic immunity of your M221
Logic Controller system. Use enclosures with a keyed locking mechanism to minimize
unauthorized access.
Environmental Characteristics
All the M221 Logic Controller module components are electrically isolated between the internal
electronic circuit and the input/output channels within the limits set forth and described by these
environmental characteristics. For more information on electrical isolation, see the technical
specifications of your particular controller found later in the current document. This equipment
meets CE requirements as indicated in the table below. This equipment is intended for use in a
Pollution Degree 2 industrial environment.
