Notes on programming monitoring software
How to speed up the scan time
When monitoring plural units of the ACD/ACR-13A, set the program so that requisite minimum pieces of data
such as PV (0A00H), OUT1 MV (0A01H), Status flag 1 (0A06H), etc. can be read.
For other data, set the program so that they can be read only when their set value has changed.
This will speed up the scan time.
How to read the set value change by the front keypad operation
If any set value is changed by the keypad operation, the ACD/ACR-13A sets the [Status flag 1 (0A06H) 2
15
:
Change in key operation] to [Yes (1)].
There are 2 methods of reading the set value change by the front keypad as follows.
Reading method 1
(1) On the software side, check that [Status flag 1 (0A06H) 2
15
: Change in key operation] has been set to
[Yes (1)], then read all set values.
(2) Clear the [Status flag 1 (0A06H) 2
15
: Change in key operation], by setting the [Key operation change flag
clearing (00F0H)] to [All clearing (0001H)].
If [Key operation change flag clearing (00F0H)] is set to [All clearing (0001H)] during the setting mode of the
ACD/ACR-13A, Error code 5 (35H, Shinko protocol) or Exception Code 18 (12H, Modbus protocol) will be
returned as a negative acknowledgement. And [Status flag 1 (0A06H) 2
15
: Change in key operation]
cannot be cleared. Set a program so that all set values can be read until acknowledgement is returned.
Reading method 2
(1) On the software side, check that [Status flag 1 (0A06H) 2
15
: Change in key operation] has been set to
[Yes (1)], then set the [Key operation change flag clearing (00F0H)] to [All clearing (0001H)].
(2) Set the program depending on the acknowledgement or negative acknowledgement as follows.
When acknowledgement is returned;
Consider it as settings completed, and read all set values.
When Error code 5 (35H, Shinko protocol) or Exception code 18 (12H, Modbus protocol) is returned as a
negative acknowledgement;
Consider it as during setting mode, and read the requisite minimum pieces of data such as PV (0A00H),
OUT1 MV (0A01H), Status flag 1 (0A06H), etc. then return to step (1).
Thus, programs which do not affect the scan time can be created using the methods described above, even if
set values on the monitoring software will not be updated until settings are complete.
How to read PID parameters after auto-tuning finishes
The ACD/ACR-13A sets [Status flag 1 (0A06H) 2
13
: AT/Auto-reset] to [During AT/Auto-reset (1)] while
auto-tuning is performing. After auto-tuning is finished, PID parameters are updated.
On the software side, read the parameters such as P, I, D, ARW after checking that [Status flag 1 (0A06H) 2
13
:
AT/Auto-reset] has been set to [OFF (0)].
Note when sending all set values at one time
• When changing alarm types during Event output EVT1 allocation (0060H) to Event output EVT5 allocation
(0064H), alarm value will revert to “0”. First, send the selected alarm type, then send the alarm value.
• When changing input types during Input type selection (0030H), set values such as SV, OUT1 proportional band,
Alarm 1 value, etc. will be initialized. First, send the selected input type, then send other set values.
When responding to the command of Input type selection, it takes approx. 2sec due to internal processing.
Therefore set the Time-out time for communication to 2sec or more when executing this command.
